RM INDIGO album film Magazine by BANGTANTV.

[@IrregularKing941]

I'll listen/watch through the whole thing if you stream it. Indigo is just beautiful

[@MariaChavez-ey5sr]

Part of RMs genius is picking collaborations so perfectly. For this he had to convince Youjeen because she is an older Korean punk rock singer and was worried her style is too strong and would over power the song but he wanted that punch. He was absolutely right too. She’s perfect. Her voice is like a firework exploding in the song. It’s a damn near perfect song and album.

[@khae_g]

Exactly.

[@xamified4432]

True! He totally knew exactly what he wanted and what his song needed, then he convinced everyone and did it! A lot of the artists and producers he worked with had some kind of circumstances that might have hindered their participation (like Youjeen's concern, Docskim thinking of retiring, etc.) but RM knew how important these people are to make his vision come true. I'm so proud of him 🥹 The album has everything I could ever want in one.

I stopped breathing at first. I love watching that moment for other people too

[@jiyzo]

​@@abiisaqib7816this is the first time ive ever heard someone say that. i believe that means "i fucking know right"? i agree a lot if thats what that means because youjeens first few lines were beyond beautiful

[@abiisaqib7816]

@@jiyzo yup yup yup 😭❤️

[@EaginFoodie]

For some reason I wasn't as sad as a lot of people were when this came out. I took it more as him finally able to feel more comfortable and confident in himself and letting go of what he wants while still embracing the little things.

[@shinya7052]

I wasn't sad but the song got me so emotional 💜

[@i.Dream.Binni3]

My sister didn't cry either and she's an RM biased lol. I, on the other hand, cried but that's just because I get emotional pretty easily. 😂 However, I think it's also because there's still that longing feeling lingering in the air, even if we interpreted the lyrics in a positive light. And the reason behind this might be because of a certain key the song is set in. 😅

[@pixiiie]

Same

[@nycjt6267]

I'm glad he's the type to share his deep feelings/thoughts.

[@marinal.]

thats good.

[@taskhn]

blake, you are truly one of the most genuine reactors on here, and it’s because you’re so talented and can appreciate their artistry for what it is with no stigma or oppression. love you man, hope you get into the album and enjoy it

[@AA-se1kk]

bts have constantly been talking about a “new chapter” not because they disbanded or whatever, but because they now have to do their mandatory military service. They have no choice but to “leave”. they have no plans for disbandment and have talked about it several times. while conscription itself is heartbreaking, I’m glad they see the positives in it and are giving us the things they’ve been working on individually before they enlist.

[@amandavaldez9315]

He used guests artists in the best ways. He introduced us to legendary Korean artists he grew up on which has been a gift. My favorite of the songs changes often.

[@taequilasilver7183]

Docksim (the producer of the song) was planning to quit producing but he said working in wild flower with namjoon gave him hope and helped him to find his passion and love in music again. I hope you can react to the RM 'Indigo' Album Magazine Film, Namjoon and the artists who collaborated with him talk about the process to make Indigo

[@SilverSeaOT7]

I could really feel his pain. Great art should make you feel. Not necessarily happy…just feel. He does that beautifully. He said that this is his favorite song from the entire album.

[@abiisaqib7816]

"just feel"...oh I love this so much you have no idea😭

[@leigh8078]

RM wrote this 4 years ago. Listen to the whole album it ends in a positive place. Jin started his military service yesterday. The others will be following and coming back together in 2025. It's all good just growth and change.

[@vanshikagupta5499]

Reading this when Jin has been discharged. It has been one hell of a ride

[@rema51095]

I cried so much listening to this 😭 his whole album is so beautiful 👑👑

[@romipurpleyou6459]

one of my favs songs of this year

[@alekkaparedes3259]

Blake, I was so waiting for YOUR reaction. You seem as excited as we were, plus we get a musician's point of view. And still people wonder why they're on a level of their own. They're truly talented and so humble. Thanks for your reactions. Indigo is such "a box full of chocolates.... 😉"

[@jean3A]

The first time I heard the chorus so many goosebumps

[@ameeri123]

RM is a genius!!! What a masterpiece song!! The whole album is amazing!!

[@bcsmoma4050]

EVERY SINGLE SONG on RM's Indigo album is incredible...all different genres, great collaborators - many unknown to Western audiences so always cool to discover new artists (hint: check out Paul Blanco), and as always his message & poetic lyricism. Great stuff!

[@youcandoit27]

He has such diverse collabs which is what i love about him as a person and as an artist

[@lydiayoung1352]

Don’t worry - Armys will be here. BTS will come back as a group in the future but we also support their solo works. I’m here to share your reactions to members’ solo works as well! I appreciate you!

[@heathernile4700]

His whole album "Indigo" is spectacular. He performed live at NPR Tiny Desk and Live in Seoul. 25 min. 1 hour

[@macbrylle091188]

He started writing this masterpiece 2017. It blows my mind how fucking great this song is. Emotionally speaking. And its worth it that he put it on his first solo album. Love all the track from Indigo. RM is one of my favorite so far from #OT7 next to Suga.

[@shaylablueangel]

It’s like a sad happy feeling. Sad because it’s been so long since he’s been able to create music he really wanted to, and loosing himself in all their successes. Happy because this is just beautiful, and you are sooooo proud of all of them, that’s the emotional part because you know exactly why they made these songs, and it has just a big meaning, behind the songs. It’s like you know something really special and secret about the songs, because you fully understand what’s going on and there are no guesses about what’s happening.

[@heather7053]

This is RM’s memoir of his 20s (per him) and this song really feels like a magnum opus of the album. He really put all his feelings into and he had a clear vision which he executed perfectly and beautifully.

[@reneezemlock7880]

Youjeen is the lead vocal for a rock band called "Cherry Filter" in Korea. She's 41 (I Believe). RM called her a legend.

[@dragonfly8929]

She's 45, born in 1977.

[@youcandoit27]

​@@dragonfly8929she is so great

[@hwlk1410]

I came across this very randomly, so I decided to add a few Korean anecdotes here: (a) youjeen is the vocalist for a band called 'cherryfilter' and she is in her mid 40s. She is also a professor and teaches pop music for a university. (b) The word 'fireworks' in Korean is 불꽃놀이, which would be 'fire flower play' if you would translate word for word into English. So the lyrics in the chorus says 'light a flower, flowerwork', and this is probably more clearly understood if you know Korean. "Wildflower" and "fireworks" are metaphors of RM himself.

[@beccahturner5761]

He said that he's already started on another album. I would check out his whole album though. He took his poetry and stories and made them into 10 stories in 10 genres and collaborations with 8 awesome artists. He managed to weave all of that into a cohesive, genius masterpiece.

[@Joonsplumtree]

not album, just songs. and he said he would likely not be able to release until after service... honestly indigo is a masterpiece and joon is finally able to be creative without the burden of bts. honestly ive never seen him so free and happy for years

[@surgato]

youjeens voice is absolutely unique, i’m so glad i got to listen to her for the first time

[@shrutimukherjee8457]

Wild flower is extremely beautiful. The whole album is a banger , I hope you listen to it!!

[@zeyv4551]

This is the song that RM lost 100 files for. He said he couldn't duplicate/recreate the emotions in the original files. This song is still a masterpiece.

[@mickieb7417]

I was waiting for you to check Wildflower, Yun and Still Life out. I just expected you to get excited about the vocals from Youjeen. She soars. Now I want to check out her stuff with her band Cherry Filter. I agree about the feeling of being excited and interested in the solo work of the guys and still feeling a sense of loss or ending for them as a group. I do believe they will be back together eventually. You cannot deny the chemistry they have, but it will be different. That doesn't mean less or bad, but different and I think a lot of us are holding on to them as they have been. People grow up, life happens, and things change. KPop holds on so tightly to youth culture that it is jarring when the reality that people grow up happens, even for us far from our teens and 20s people. Today, as Jin enters the military and Suga's impending responsibility comes into the conversation it hits a little harder that time and people march forward. Thanks for sharing. I look forward to more of your reactions. Oh and hey, get the band involved again. They were a kick when they checked out V's solo work. You may be doing that on Patreon or some other format but I am old and focus my spare social media time on KZbin so sorry if I am missing something.

[@jsrjjvj947]

please do indigooo, that album is a masterpiece! it’s such an experience, you’ll love it

[@EILEEN_I_lIN]

조유진은 '체리필터'의 보컬이자 내가 어릴때부터 너무 좋아하던 가수이다. 10년도 훨씬 전, 체리필터의 활동 당시 여자 밴드 보컬 중 밴드의 소리를 뚫고 목소리가 들리는, 가장 유니크한 보컬이다. 방탄소년단을 좋아하기 전부터 그녀의 노래를 들으며 자란 세대이기에 이 콜라보를 너무 좋아한다.

[@elenadelossantos3969]

TBH, it feels like he’s writing this song entailing someone’s life, my life and it just hits you emotionally… 😢 like I could literally cry as I heal mentally 😢😮

[@e28_skz]

i was waiting for your reaction!! i like this song so much that i just cried listening to it now 💀

[@tushtikapoor]

its not a goodbye, i didnt interpret it that way. i just see it as a new chapter wherein bts has more freedom and flexibility which is rightfully deserved as they enter their late 20s/early 30s ❤

I'm first omg. The first time in my life. This is a moment. I can't believe it I'm crying 😭

[@starrynightsomewhere]

Some of my friends didn’t like the part with youjeen but I think her voice was perfect and gave the song the best it could be. RM is so talented, the song it’s just perfect 🌸💙

[@anar2522]

Really always love your reactions!! Thank yoj

[@emrykin7127]

Oh wow….kingdom hearts!!! It is the same feeling with the song!

[@sophiaisabelle01]

We appreciate Blake's reactions. May he continue to keep up the good work.

[@purplewildflower]

I agree that all their solos have been mind-blowing. They're all showing their own sound and color. I was not expecting More from J-Hope and Wild Flower from RM. Just like JITB, Indigo was well thought-out and every song has its own charm. No skips at all. It's true that you never know what to expect with these guys. Such incredible and amazing artists! I can't wait to see what the rest will bring. Great reaction as always!

[@prouddaughterpublishing]

The first time the chorus broke, your reaction was just like mine. I wasn't expecting it and it hit like a brick wall. I was so overwhelmed that I almost started crying. It simply soared above the clouds. The entire song is beautifully written and produced. I think this will be one of my all time island songs.

[@tazhafiraklasica1626]

pls react to the full album! you will like it!

[@itsbonniefay2417]

I really appreciate this collab, youjeen really blew my expectations out of the water and added so much to the song vocally

[@tsw2294]

RM'S whole Playlist on the Indigo album is awesome! He chose artists that really compliments his style. Fabulous and extremely talented artist, RM!

[@aftarsun]

RM’s definitely good at making you feel a range of emotions in a song. But if you listen to the album straight through it ends on an encouraging note :) And don’t worry after their military enlistment, they’ll come back together in 2025!

[@Sarah-lj1fy]

Blake, we appreciate you too! You always bring such a sweet blend of professional expertise and genuine reaction to your videos. 💜

[@gretchend6823]

Agreed! 💜

[@meredithposch5789]

LOVE this reaction. Yes, I think they are all going to do this! Please react to the whole album on Patreon. Looking forward to it!!!

[@letygr]

If you're doing the full album on here, count me in! Also whenever you have free time I think you should react to his "Indigo Album Magazine Film" because I know you'll appreciate your thoughts on his creative process and just him explaining the whole process of creating the album and the featuring artists

[@kimtaehyungmybae-ov3lv]

this is the kind of music that if it made by a western artist it would have won grammy

[@arcollins040thomas8]

The entire album deserves a reaction! Seriously he created a masterpiece. And he is already working on music for when they return💜💜

[@miayim4267]

RM's whole album is a masterpiece. Thank you for your reaction. I loved it.

[@lillianbarbieri7771]

this song is so piercing and beautiful. Hope you check out the album, it is incredible.

[@sarahbutterfly5832]

i literally felt happy for him and sooo sad and the same time and weirdly i think the most sad of all the lyrics is the simplest one (Ah,i'll return someday) after this i just lost it i cryed so hard !! but anyways as they said: "the best moment is yet to come "so i will wait for that no matter what while seeing the're impressive solos and contents !!! i feel just so happy for them anyways RM did a performance at NPR Tiny Desk concert it was so good ❤‍🔥so i hope you check this out too. loved your reaction as always thank you 💜

[@AS_School]

I cant believe you can pick up on all those things without headphones haha !

[@choco0418ful]

Oh yes i remember i was bawling when watched the MV for the 1st time. Didnt expected at all, but everthing of the MV, the song, the lyrics, the vocals made me so emotional. Yes go check the whole album, #Indigoo is indeed a masterpiece

[@rianiw2023]

I don't know why but I cried listening to your appreciation towards BTS (RM especially here).. thank you so much for loving our boys

[@whatisilyionlyknowipurpleyou]

7:08 im with ya Blake. We're in our emotional era haha, it definitely feels like a goodbye. But not a permeant one, a see you soon, one. I did sob though. Especially the second verse

I know they all say bye in a way but there's so much depth too and so many stories and emotions the fans have been waiting for. I love them so much, thank you for saying he will be on top of the hip-hop world cause i truly belive bts rapline can very much do so.

[@1marieleathem]

Rather than saying goodbye to us, I think he's saying goodbye to his 20's and starting a new chapter. The best is yet to come.

[@villianelle9325]

Now you gotta react to indigo dude.. Btw I love your reactions Blake❤

[@k06137]

Bts are coming back as a group after their military duty is over so I’m not sad. Just want them to be safe.

[@GolemMiguel0514]

Love RM.

[@Julia-ix7yt]

I'd like to point out that it's not "feat. youjeen" BUT "with youjeen". Namjoon describes every song on this album this way and by that he just wants to show the utmost respect for other artists and emphasize partnership, not just collaboration:)

[@cecil1108]

Namjoon escribiendo obras de arte 🛐🛐🛐💜

[@hanimelisa9783]

U got it Blake.."its crushing me"

[@MagdaF_Lopes]

Namjoon is a genius, a poet. Ele é um gênio, um poeta! Youjeen - Cherry Filter is a South Korean Alternative Rock group formed in 1997 fronted by the female singer Youjeen.

[@alohahoney9437]

After this album we won’t get anything for the next 2 years because they are all enlisting. Jin entered the military training camp and started his enlistment yesterday. It is very sad because we have been attached to them for years. Luckily they have a lot of content that will keep Armys company while they finish their conscriptions. I had high expectations for the album and RM definitely delivered. He is a lyrical genius! The song made me cry tho..It was so beautiful. But it’s not goodbye for BTS it’s see you later…They’ll be back as a group in 2025 and Jin will discharge June 12, 2024.

[@taequilasilver7183]

mmmm no, we have new music from Suga, Jimin, Taehyung and Jungkook, they need to release their solo albums and Namjoon mentioned he is going to release a new album before enlisting the next year

[@alohahoney9437]

@@taequilasilver7183 I was only referring to Namjoon and not the others. However I didn’t know RM planned to release another album before enlisting.

[@whatisilyionlyknowipurpleyou]

Namjoon did not mention he was releasing another album before enlisting, that's absolutely insane and sounds overwhelming. He said it during the VLIVE if I remember. He said he was already working on new music, particularly one song which he started working on almost immediately. He said he doesn't know if it'll release before or after his enlistment though, nothing is confirmed.

[@BackToBlueSide218]

If you wanna know more about indigo , Namjoon did a magazine interview talking about each artist he worked with and each song! You can find it on their KZbin channel “BangtanTV” . It’s really good!

I would also recommend for you to checkout his album, Indigo. It’s insane how I love all of the 10 tracks. RM is so versatile and in Indigo he have insert so many different genre and work with many artists who he respected and have admired outside and inside Korea. Highly recommend Still Life ft Anderson Paak and Yun ft Erykah Badu. One of the tracks in Indigo (his latest album). Erykah send his wishes and even check on him every now and then.

[@rvermillion8188]
