There are tons of Idol groups with people who rap in them that I enjoy but what grabbed me was BTS was a group that had RAPPERS that became Idols. For me, a lot of times it's very evident and some groups I can't get into because they have IDOLS who rap instead of RAPPERS that became Idols. And if you're going to present a rapper to me, they need to understand just a bit about the deeper meaning and technique. As you said, it's an understanding that you have that's deeply ingrained. Watching the rapline do one of their cyphers or other rap only songs, just watching their movement around a stage even made me feel nostalgic. I lived in the West of NYS but even in my little neck of the woods during the 70s and 80s we had a little pocket of hip hop culture. Just seeing how Suga paces when he raps or RM's gestures or Hobi's Hope on the Street where he shows all his poppin', lockin etc felt like home, it was familiar. It's not just a way to make music, the culture claimed them years ago and they respect what it's brought them.

[@MONQTV]

SEE you get it. You get it that's EXACTLY what I'm talking about. You understand and that's what I love about this. BTS is able to take that and expand on it and reach people from all walks, and still be yourself HipHop based. You can't NOT get emotional about that lol. 😁🕉️🙏🏾💙⛩️

[@linsyaread7294]

Ebony71 the best comment I’ve read so far 👍👏

[@ashleyt5362]

I totally agree, Ebony. They started out in 2013 with more rapping since that was their core, RM, J-Hope and Suga and slowly evolved more into “pop”. However the rap line never changed. They’re still hard core rappers. Also I love how Suga is also Agust D where he can show more of his true personality. He can have the best of both worlds, BTS and Agust D.

[@AlexaOleksa]

I just recently tried to get into other groups beside BTS, give them fair chance you know. And understood that when i listen to them i feel their rapline is not fluid as it is manufactured and "trained" it doesn't feel genuine like BTS's. Even though jhop himself couldn't rap, but he came out from street dance and hip hop was in his blood already and he told that he freestyled always with suga and rm.

[@ifnotbtsthenwho3767]

I remember Jackson of Got 7, he said in a show together with RM that his role is someone who raps for the group but he doesn't consider himself as rapper. He is a good friend of RM and I think he educated himself. He got my respect with that.

[@materidouska286]

I liked when you said it is pointless to try to categorize BTS . I think they created a category of their own. They are that special, as simple as that. I think there is tons and tons you haven´t seen or heard yet. Cyphers, their mix tapes, solo side projects. You also said you haven´t paid attention to Suga before because he sounded differently ( or something like that)? You would see a totally different side to him if you heard for instance his " First love" or " So far away" ( that´s on his mix tape though and written and produced by Agust´D who is Suga/ Min Yoongi´s creative alter ego). You barely scratched the surface man:-) Those guys know absolutely no boundaries when it comes to genres, their sound, emotional expressiveness, creativity etc. Go on and discover more. On the side note - I was laughing when I saw that during the first part of your video, that burning incense in the background emitted smoke right out of Suga´s head:-)

[@MONQTV]

LMAO, I had to go look to see what you were talking about for the incense lol. OMG I hope nobody gets upset at that lol. 😁🕉️🙏🏾⛩️

[@MONQTV]

Not yet but it's popping up allot lol so now I need to check it out. It should be on this list I have. 😁🕉️🙏🏾💙⛩️

[@materidouska286]

@@MONQTV I second that wish. Please have a listen to it, you won´t regret it. I just recently discovered "Hip hop lover" too and it is simply amazing. One darn incredible live performance of it is from 2017 and that stage they performed on is simply mind blowing - " 2017 Memories "Bullet proof pt.1+pt.2" and "Hip hop lover" ( I think you have already seen and heard their early days "We are bullet proof pt. 2", but here you can hear also "We are bullet proof pt.1". The rap line´s Cyphers medley performed on that very same stage from 2017 ( Hobi in silver sparkling bucket hat, lol) is yet another incredible experience to have . The total command the three of them are having of a full seated stadium is simply chilling to witness ( Suga was quite seriously sick, running high fever during that concert and yet he performed like nobody´s business). Bangtan at its best:-)

[@renfloyd7595]

People keep asking me, why you like that hip hop shit? CAUSE IT'S HIP HOP! :D

[@classical7]

"Born Singer" gets me emotional every time. 😭💜🎶 This is BTS take on J. Cole's "Born Sinner", who's also one of their musical inspiration. #ARMYsince2014

[@dcarmeto]

This is a very emotional song, like their faces, said it all. The way RM kept his eyes closed through it all, even after they turned around, you can tell he was trying to hold in his emotions, there are times they cried during this performance. You also need to check out "Move", "Mad City", and "Hip Hop lover", shit everything, lol. But the way RM starts off Move addressing Suga hits you. It transfers you back in time. Suga and Rm have one of the longest relationships, they both came up from underground and took a risk with a small unknown company. They went through so much shit together including the rest of the boys. They are truly a brotherhood and no one can touch, period. You feel it in their music. It is like you can see it play out as they start to rap about their years together, it makes you feel as if you were there and lived it with them.

[@nevermindminyoongi5271]

I'm agree with you. With all my heart. Rm and suga 😭😭😭😭 Brother for life. 💜💜💜💜💜💜

Drying your eyes is the BTS effect. Most people feel things when they listen too them. BTS is their own genre and NO ONE does it like them. There is so much more for you too experience. I'm not even going to suggest anything because you'll get there. Enjoy your ride, I'll be here to see your reactions. Borahae! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@MONQTV]

Thank you Soo much, just seeing them in that circle like that was emotional. It made me miss those golden years of HipHop and knowing that they have the embodiment of that culture in them and show it in this video put me in that moment and I know that want even the beginning so I'm ready, I Hope lol 😁🕉️🙏🏾💙⛩️

[@febl76]

Suga was saying their next album is gonna be managed primarily by their selves (big hit always had this as a goal) , they had devided roles in between them. I am so looking forward to that. And I really hope you get to hear "stigma" (live version by V) it's not hiphop but has that reverend off 90's R&B.

[@MONQTV]

Yes I'm anxiously waiting to get deeper into this group especially the rap line. I don't want to rush, but I want to rush lmao 😁🕉️🙏🏾⛩️

[@febl76]

@@MONQTV it's something... their lyrics get more intricate and different meanings can be given to words. Namjoon has really become a player of words and acronyms. But also Suga is less angry nowadays and studying philosophy and psychology these these days and it shows in his answers and quotes. In the beginning they were telling stories from mostly their pov, but nowadays they have a bigger understanding of purpose rather than goals (Suga: I think purpose of our music is more important than the goals to achieve). I think "big hit" /Bang has given them the possibilities to learn and develop , creative freedom and mindset etc. Potential they had in each of them had possibility to develop. Their team work is always supporting each other and accept each other differences, and as I can see it has become a kind of art collective. (music, rapping, singing, dancing, visual art etc)

[@cindylepo6784]

This song is so special to BTS. This was at a time where they were really suffering from a lot of hate and ridicule. They were so strong and determined even back then. They faced each other in that circle because it a was a moment for each other. They performed this again in 2017 during the Wings tour but that time they sang to their crowd facing out in that circle and it was with a stronger confidence signaling they were no longer scared beginners. Its really a beautiful for them and ARMY. And just a tip finding your one vocalist to focus on in BTS is dangerous...they have all 4 improved immensely and are equally talented. I wouldn't base it off of such an early performance. It's hard to pick one at all but my favorite is actually Taehyung but they are all great. Peace.

[@girlwithluv_and_ugh9975]

I’m laying in bed, watching this, and crying. BTS are so much more than what people think. They are 7 special human beings.

[@ginouclint7845]

16:20 You have to watch hip hop lover and you will see they really do take the hip hop game seriously and they love to pay homage

[@vikzytoria]

I really enjoy your commentary on the history and culture of hip hop. I think it's a hugely missed thing people assume about BTS. They have no idea they have a legit rap line. RM feels an immense sense of responsibility as the leader of BTS. BTS was truly founded around RM and he out his heart into the group. Leader is not a title like it is in the US for boy bands. In Kpop it means he takes immense responsibility for keeping the group working well together, sorting issues, and also being the translator face for the group in the US. The man is just...good. they all. Just genuinely such good people and their art is insane. So that chip he holds is bigger than you can imagine and goes way farther than just that surface "I told you so". It is SOUL deep. This was so emotional. Thank you for this and all this knowledge you provide.

BTS are just so different from any other groups,I dnt mean other groups are bad etc etc but BTS's messages, lyrics,their passion has always captivated me & because of this I Just love & respect them so much.....

[@ginouclint7845]

13:00 Heads up every album release or festa (BTS anniversary celebration) they have a testimony song that they write or release, keeping track of their progress basically. BTS discography is a diary, their personal diary and if you care to pay attention and actually read and dissect the lyrics you can pinpoint exactly what era and what stage in their lives they were at when they wrote/released a song. They really do have the most personal lyrics/discography in kpop.

[@ginouclint7845]

5:00 trust me BTS has one the best raplines if not the best in the entire kpop industry. All the rappers are excellent, they kill any beat and I promise you, this is just the surface that you've scratched when you get into the cyphers and the rapline songs and the solo projects and the triple, quadruple layered wordplays you will see what I mean and they just keep getting better with the years. I mean the BTS rapline who at some point was being ridiculed by the korean hip hop community (the whole leaving underground rap fiasco) is now one of the most sought after for collaborations and they collab with any type of artists and somehow make it work

[@aleshaw4762]

Hi, please info, is there any underground rapper beside Namjoon & Yoongi whose got to the kpop?

[@ginouclint7845]

@@aleshaw4762 Zico (from block B amazing group, super talented), Bang yonguk(from BAP another great and super talented group) and these are just two that I know from the top of my head actually Zico and RM are friends and they have a song together from BTS predebut days. Both of these guys also write and produce music. These are just two that I can name right now, there are more but I can't think of them

The rapline has so many layers to them, Namjoon, Min Yoongi and Hoseok have completely different styles but they all mesh so well together but also can't wait to you go in deeper to there solo stuff so you will see (also the vocal line too). Love your reactions, and thank you for your open mind.

Monq you made me cry, I can feel your pride and pain in your voice. The emotions brought by BTS in this performance, in someway is the reflection of your own bittersweet journey in the hiphop world years ago. Even after zillion time watching this live performancs, it still hits me to the core as if its my very first. 😭

[@MONQTV]

I'm sorry Nikki for making you cry and you are absolutely right, I was going to go into my own history to show people why it got me that hard and why that moment I was proud even now because I felt like, in some way, I could relate through them, through that state and all those emotions came out, those memories, the few accomplishments and experiences I had in the industry and all of the UPS and Downs. I felt like they loved it much more than the way I did but actually completed their mission and at that moment I was like YESSS, THIS IS HOW IT SHOULD BE. 😁🕉️🙏🏾💙⛩️

Then BTS pop up in youtube playing around i got curious and my curiosity brings me to fall in love with them. I dont literally understand lyrics but i feel it, sorry to other idols but they are really different and im so sad for those people whos trying to pull them down. History is a history and we cannot change it but past is past.. Those haters im assuming you will gonna be included again in their next album im looking forward for it.. @MONOQ i like learning here..

Your words hits hardddd for several reasons. I know struggle cause I lived it and still live it and prolly will live it for a long time. It's also one of the reasons Bangtan's music hits me so hard cause I know they know struggle too. They don't choose the words they say lightly. Yes, I love their music, I enjoy it, I can party and dance to so many of their songs too and god knows I do, but there's so much more behind the glitter sorta speak, not sure how to say it in English.

[@enicole1203]

I really like your insight into rap and hip hop culture. I came up in Brooklyn in the 80s and 90s and I've seen it all. I'm not an expert on the history and intricacies of the art form, but one thing I hate to see is people capitalizing on caricatures of it, and you can tell when that is happening. I felt some type of way about non-Black people making a career out of "rap" for a long time, but I never got that sense from BTS from day one. The sincerity and respect and heartfelt love for the art is evident in everything they do, and they absolutely have my respect as rap artists. I appreciate your videos for confirmation of my feelings about it. 😄 I don't know if you know a guy named Tiger JK (Drunken Tiger), he's one of RM's mentors and is known as the Godfather of Korean hip hop. He and his wife Yoon Mirae (Tasha) are part of the group MFBTY. Their music is really good, Tiger has an old school rap style that I love. I'd live if you checked them out sometime!

[@stephaniewilliams3573]

I’m so glad I found your channel. Your passion is palpable. And yes BTS are the real deal. They came from nothing. They didn’t have anything handed to them which is why they’re still humble and appreciative of every crumb they have now (seriously, they forget they’re rich all of the time. They live in multi million dollar apartment but fight over ramen noodles🤦‍♀️).

Thank you Ms Stephanie. 😁🕉️🙏🏾💙⛩️

I really like your reactions! This is a cover of J Cole's song Born Sinner. They did an AWESOME job!

1. There was a TV show featuring Namjoon (RM) where he read hate comments and answered: I'll prove it to you all. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4WvhmWOm7qHqK8 I think his part in this song is kind of a reflex of this. 2. One of their most intimate touching songs, for me, is Moving that is their reflexions on the years they spent sharing their first tiny dorm and moving to a little bigger one. It's so beautiful. I cry every time. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXm8apptorlkrZI 3. I think most of us still get emotional when hw hear Born Singer. When the boys released it, the group was just 2 years old and a loooong path ahead.

[@MONQTV]

For me learning, understanding and still learning their history project so much emotion into the songs because I know they have a deeper meaning than I can imagine, especially for them and as the Culture in that and it elevated it more for me.. Thank You so much for this comment. 🕉️☮️🙏🏾❤️😁⛩️

I'm watching your reaction again. I can feel the kiddos' emotions thru the music and the lyrics. I feel your emotions for the boys growth. Thank you Sir....

i love the way you talk about hip hop, and teach me and others, who are from different cultures, what we don't know about it. Really enjoy watching your videos. Born singer is such an emotional song for me as it is, but listening to you talk about what the stage and the set up Means, i got teary eyed.

Rapline contributes to their music most. They participated as producer & writer on every album since their debut. Especially Rm he write most of the lyrics for the group. I really want your reaction on hip hop lover. Please & Thank you for your reaction.

[@palmdalians2]

This has always been one of my favorites. But it wasnt until I learned more from you and your willingness to welcome me, with explanation, into your culture and bridge the divide. I've listened to this song dozens of times and through your explanation the first time I cried. Thank you soooo much!

I re-watched your reaction to Born Singer and I feel what you feel. I cry every time I watch this performance and I'm a 62-year old mum. They were literally just kids who has so much talent and passion and had to fight so much hate poured on them. Thank God they have each other.

I don´t know if you wanna listen to some of the rappers solo work but I recommend RM-moonchild Suga-First love J-hope-mama these are lyrically very beautiful and heartfelt songs that alway touch my heart TT

I’ve been watching you for awhile and haven’t subscribed yet. I’ve learned so much about hip hop from you. I’m a 50 yr old woman and I was not into hip hop back then. I liked MC hammer, Boys to Men stuff. Anyway, back to my point, I have learned an appreciation to hip hop now and you made me CRY! How dare you! 😄🤣😜 I’m now subscribed and looking forward to more of your stuff. I purple you. Much love. 💜

What you said about MCs and their role to sing vs rap was eye opening to Suga’s part of the song. Added even more context. Thank you!

[@lobaetoile8440]

Your love for hip-hop culture is very endearing. You even got emotional... Everyone was emotional during that performance too, everyone was tearing up or crying at the end. Hip-hop is all about sharing your own story, isn't it? About authentically telling your experiences, opinions and emotions through spoken poetry and rhythm. Give all shout outs you want, it was a pleasure to listen to your imput. Thank you for sharing.

I wanna give you a hug. You really seem to get them and what they stand for and I love it. Thank you so much and I purple you

[@lisalee6859]

I appreciate your reaction so much. RM and Suga were phenomenal underground rappers before they became part of BTS. Their peers in the underground gave them a whole lot of s**t for "betraying" hip hop to become idols who they considered as "girls" because they put on makeup etc. They were disrespected and hated upon. This was one of their answer to all that hate. Also the Cypher series. They really hit back at all the haters in an awesome way. BTW, a greater part (if not all) of all the harmonising and adlibs are done by Jungkook.

[@MONQTV]

Jungkook ok I wanted to make sure cause I know they have great dinner on that squad and I wanted to make sure I had the right one. Thank you Soo much 😁🕉️🙏🏾💙⛩️

[@itsmyothermeyay]

i always think bcoz of this hiphop mentality that brought bangtan this far more than any of their peers. eventho i started since 2015, i do researches their journey since predebut..proved it was the rapline who propelled bangtan's music early days. & 1 would think other members probably wouldn't like hiphop.. but no, turned out everyone has history with hiphop.. bighit did a great job..

[@btsfan7564]

One of the realist reactions to BTS born singer I have seen. Thank you so much for being so open minded and diving in to the rap line. Please react to bts Tear, Sea, first love by suga, the last by suga. Please listen or react to jhopes mixtape, rm mono playlist.

love your reaction. It is magical to see how BTS touches people with their sincerity. glad to share the wonders of this particular group with you. Also looking forward to all the great rap songs you still can react to. in my opinion the explained series by DKDKTV are a great addition to fully understand the lyrical genius of BTS. Certain cultural elements just don't translate well to English.

@@joannmosby8756 lmao I love HipHop and it's not just because of the music or art as much as what it has done to me, for me and made me. Maybe I would have been more successful without it wasting my time dancing, writing raps doing graffiti, meeting people who didn't judge me by my appearance or what kind of clothes I wore being accepted for loving a culture instead of a brand. I would give all that up to be a great scientist or CEO of a company...... Well I could still do those things and love HipHop lol. But, for me, without it I would be a boring person. 😁🕉️🙏🏾💙⛩️

That was 2015. This video ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJmZfH6kls-li6M ) is of them performing Born Singer at the end of 2017. The emotion is still there, and the growth (of their career at that point) is just incredible. 🥺💜👏🏼 Also, the way the 2017 performance is staged is the exact opposite of the 2015 performance; starting with them facing out to the crowd, and then with them turning to face each other toward the end. This little detail always makes me tear up. 😭 The full-circle feeing of it all is just beautiful.

[@cessd2860]

The high note is either Jungkook and Jimin...but jimin mostly do the second voice
