Their cyphers are pointed towards their haters so they're "flexing" a bit more but the majority of their songs are about real stuff and have deep meaning behind them so i hope you check those out too (people left great suggestions in the comments). And i would love for you to check out 'Outro: tear' it's so good and pretty emotional if you know what it's about. Great reaction btw!!!

Those songs have references of the stuff they had told to them. So it has a lot of meaning and play words , specially towards the whole idol- rapper identity crisis that suga and RM got.

[@Nezumi99]

[@tata-ge6ln]

Actually Outro: tear ( the one that you almost listened to) is a rap line song too And it's a lot deeper than this one. Since you asked for a deeper song I highly recommend that one. Other deep rap songs: Agust d - the last, Agust d - strange feat rm from BTS. Agust d is suga from BTS (is the name that he uses on his solo work), he's the one that reminded you of Eminem. He has a lot of fire songs but a lot of them are diss tracks, if you want to hear any of them I recommend: Agust d - daechwita, or Agust d - Agust d. The other rappers of the group are RM and J-Hope, they r fire too, you should listen to RM - Joke, RM - Monster, Jhope - Chicken noodle soup feat Becky g or BTS - Boy meets evil (Jhope's solo with BTS). From the vocal line I recommend watching THE TRUTH UNTOLD - BTS LIVE

The cypher medley is just a combination of all of the cyphers they've done over the years. J Hope rapped his verse from Cypher 1, Suga rapped his verse from Cypher 2, RM rapped his verse from Cypher 3: Killer, and they all did cypher 4 at the end.

[@vk.infp_daeguboysstan9992]

[@Caroline-eb2ys]

You guys should definitely react to Outro:Tear too btw. Thats a rap line song as well and is really fckin deep. The demo was written by Suga (korean eminem that u mentioned lmao) during the time the group of 7 of them were going thru a really rough time and were considering disbanding. The song isnt exactly about each other, but more like about them to their career. They kinda exploded in the west in 2017, and were not handling the pressure, of being that famous, well. (They started off from a small almost bankrupt label back in 2013) So yea, according to suga, when he played the demo for the other 6 of em, they all cried together. The other two rappers (jhope and RM) added their verses to the song after that. And this heartbreaking fire ass song was created-

[@susank2283]

Their cyphers, especially the early ones, were clap back to all the rappers who disrespected them. RM & Suga were underground rappers prior to becoming idols. They took a lot of sh*t from those folks early on, and continue to get criticism from some of the rapper/hip hop community. In the last cypher, they are a lot less angry...more feeling sorry. This is a medley of 1-4, not the complete cyphers. Thanks for reviewing and giving us your opinion.

[@r.o.z.e.e.7475]

There is a reason why they are flexing. They had a challenging beginning in their career, they were mocked, looked down, and they are still experiencing it now. Despite being on the top in the industry, they are still grounded, charitable and humble; they are funny too. Their fan, the ARMY are protective of BTS, vice versa. They always acknowledge the ARMY, especially after receiving awards, because they know ARMY helped them to achieve their goals and dreams.

As im saying that tho, we appreciate ppl even more when they respect the band as musicians, even if they dont particularly vibe with the music. Im not saying yall completely disrespected group, im just saying that armys can be a little protective of bts coz of the amount of unwarranted slander they recieve from people who dont give a fuck about the music but just wanna shit on them (racism, sexism, xenophobia and all that shit). Keep being candid tho! We recommend different types of music for yall to react to bcoz bts has a INSANELY wide range of music. The 3 main songwriters for the group are rappers. And two of them started as underground rappers b4 joining the group like sum 11 years ago.

One of my all-time favorite "mental health" tracks is "Interlude: Shadow," which is just SUGA. It's a song about his young self hungering for fame, and then fighting with the dark "shadows" of loneliness and fear that came when he achieved the pinnacle. TBH, the best MVs (music videos) for the rap line's stuff will be their solo stuff. I recommend: -- RM: "Joke" (search for the one with English subs), "Seoul," and "Intro: Persona" -- j-hope: "Airplane" (not to be confused with Airplane pt. 2), "Intro: Boy Meets Evil," and his remake of "Chicken Noodle Soup" feat. Becky G -- SUGA (also as Agust D): "Agust D," "Daechwita," and as I already said, "Interlude: Shadow." (His track, "First Love," is also gorgeous and so, so personal.) As for neo-soul, the best example is vocalist V's song "Singularity," which was a break-through solo he did on their Love Yourself: Tear album. For the full vocal line, I'd recommend "House of Cards," which feels kind of The Weeknd-ish, production-wise. For this one, you can find live performances with English subs pretty easily. IMHO, a lot of my favorite BTS tracks don't have official MVs, so it can be hard to find videos of the songs, especially with accurate translations. There are a lot of "lyrics" videos, but in my experience, they're often off-track with some of the subs. Also, keep in mind that a lot of the references you may see in some of the official subs are heavily dependent on understanding Korean culture and history, so if something seems funny or weird or oddly stated, it's probably just a cultural difference kind of thing (e.g., the song "Baepsae," or "crow tit," which is a type of bird, but us westerners often get taken aback by the word "tit"). Finally, if you decide to continue on your BTS journey, as you start to dive into some of the rap line's songs, I highly, HIGHLY recommend you also check out the explanation videos for them -- ESPECIALLY those that are done by DKDKTV. They have a whole series called "Explained by a Korean..." and their videos on "DDAENG" and "UGH" are particularly helpful!

[@debbiemoodenbaugh9883]

It was braggadocious simply becuz when they started, people that were supposedly on the top put them down , embarrassed them, humiliated them and told them that they will never make it. That being said these boys are the most humble guys you will ever know. And yes it is an experience when 50,000 people in a stadium are holding those Army bombs (light sticks) being synchronized with the beats of the music. 👏

[@lxveyxurself1971]

BTS has gotten a lot of hate in the past. They've been through a lot. Their music is so self-reflective, really, is the best word to put it as. Yes, some of their tracks are pure fun and full of their flexes like they should, but A LOT of their music is very much about societal issues, mental health, love. They write a lot of songs for ARMY. They work on their own music, writing, producing. Of course they have in-house producers and writers at their company but the members themselves are very very much part of the process and have their own hand in producing and writing entire tracks. I really hope you see how meaningful their songs are in the future and I'm looking forward to ya'll getting to know them better because as a fan of music myself, they changed my perspective on what music is really about and taught me how much power music really holds. I found that their music and discography is so versatile, beautiful, fun and interesting. For every type of mood, BTS has a song. I do recommend watching an intro to BTS video. There is one called "introduction to BTS (2021 updated)" by a channel called Ida S. Please do react to it :) Of course, you can check out music before if you'd like but I think it would be nice to at least get to know the group a little before. Thank you

[@alekkaparedes3259]

I second the motion 😉. Since I like being honest too, I have to say that I'm still not convinced with your reactions 🤷. Just wait until you know them a little bit more before you make a wrong assumption. My fellow Armys are right, they're answering to their haters because they've been attacked, mocked, and deeply hurt, since the beginning for no reason. Nobody liked them because they were underdogs. But they stayed true to themselves and have grown because of what they stand for and because we stand behind them. Anyway, it's ok if you don't like them. It doesn't matter, really. The sun rises for everyone, you know.

[@WhalienDNA]

Great reaction! The Neo soul song is Singularity. RM wrote the song and V performs it. The music video has captions so you can see the gorgeous poetic lyrics. I love Singularity. I found it shortly after I was getting into BTS, and it blew my mind that they had a song like that, definitely unexpected if you don’t know how diverse their discography is. You were right that Suga is the one who has the Rolex line, but it’s actually RM that has the Givenchy/Hugo Boss lines. The full Cyphers 2&3 have some absolutely incredible wordplay in them. The translations on this video don’t do justice to the wordplay at all. All 3 rappers also have their own solo, self produced mixtapes. J Hope has Hope World, which is about 20 minutes long. The other 2 have 2 mixtapes each. All of their mixtapes do an awesome job of showcasing their individual styles. They also all have some really deep philosophical songs on them that give us a glimpse into their mindsets and how they approach life/music. Suga goes by Agust D on his mixtapes. Both of his mixtapes are masterpieces and touch on topics like depression, capitalism, and his personal struggles. RM’s first mixtape is a classic mixtape which has him rapping over other people’s beats (such as Run the Jewels on Joke). His second mixtape is extremely different. It’s very subdued and melodic. It’s called Mono. and is about 20 minutes long. It’s super introspective.

[@VanCityGal]

One thing that may put this in perspective in terms of the flexing is that BTS came from a small company with little money and connections in the KPOP industry. This meant that they got little airtime on shows and were looked down upon by many in the industry. RM and Suga came from the underground rap world and when they switched to becoming KPOP idols their counterparts in the underground scene laughed at them and made fun of them telling them they took the easy way out and they were girls. Much of this has been caught on camera. Despite all the hardships and odds against them they were able to make it to the top. All of the members are very humble but don't hesitate to clap back at those that put them down in the past. Army loves it and is right behind them, enthusiastically screaming for them to show the haters who the boss is now.

[@iamscoliosisgirl]

agree, because if one does not really check BTS background they wouldn’t understand how the Cyphers came about. It really would help if the guys react to the each of the Cyphers separately

[@dreammin.]

ok, so basically two of them were underground rappers, and they taught another member who was an underground dancer to rap. when they left the underground they received a massive hate because the underground community in korea hates “kpop” idols and thinks that from the moment you leave the underground, you lose your essence. at first, yoongi was hesitant about debuting in a group, he just wanted to be a producer, but then after meeting the other members and getting along with them the just went for it, also considering he had namjoon, who was also from the underground. he started thinking about money, because he even wouldn't eat for lack of money, fought a lot with his parents and sacrificed a lot for music. when they debuted, they thought everything was going to be ok, but kpop fans didn't want them as they totally deviated from the kpop standard. unlike the other groups, they made songs that criticized the government, the education system, past generations that criticized teenagers and millennials and etc. and because of that, they suffered many attacks, were blacklisted by the government in korea, received death threats, were manipulated by the big kpop companies because they entered kpop in an almost bankrupt company... they created their own essence and that's why, over time, they stood out. today they are the biggest group of humanity in this generation and so far no one has managed to break the records they created besides themselves. they broke records of historical artists, but without losing the essence. thry are very humble and very proud of where they came from, even though they suffered racism and xenofobia from the international media, they built the best possible relationship between idol and fan with their fan base, BTS and ARMY.

[@aparnay6391]

'Outro Tear' is painfully awesome, it was written around the time BTS were contemplating disbandment. While the song reads like a breakup song, Suga said it was written for the members and that he had played the song for the rest of the guys and they had all cried together. BTS are a very close knit group (the guys are all practically like family) and RM, the groups leader, has said that that makes them very vulnerable in a lot of ways.

We are proud ARMYs supporting their hard work, humbleness, motivation to better this world and overall talent. They are the full package and regret that I didn't like some of their music at first, ironically some of their cyphers 🫣 but I realized it was because my ears had become accustomed to other types of music, when I went back over and over I realized what I had been missing out on. Hope your ears can evolve also and you go back someday to appreciate everything. See you around, - Your NJ neighbors

[@WM20s]

I appreciate you being respectful in your explanation my NJ neighbor, but I have to somewhat disagree with you in one aspect... The idea that someone may not like something because their ears aren't yet "accustomed" to a sound. That *_could_* be the case, but it's not *_always_* the case. Just a little background, we're all children of immigrants, couple that with living in the (arguably) most culturally diverse state in the US... it's safe to say our musical diets have been fairly diverse over the years. If I had a dollar for every unfamiliar sound from a different country/era/genre that I instantly loved, I'd have a small fortune lol. *It all depends on what you vibe with* Judging from our _Singularity_ reaction, it seems we might've found ours lol. That'll be coming out in a few days, so be on the lookout. As always, thanks for tuning in, and for sharing your thoughts 🙏 - cool.hands

@@WM20s @WASTING MY TWENTIES not to argue with you just continuing the convo, it's funny you mention our diverse environment because that's what's surprising about a lot of reactions, not specifically you per say, but despite this fact, the barrier amongst ourselves is sometimes quite big. People to this day continue to make fun of other cultures and while we are talking about music, most people from what I have experienced tend to stay in their comfort bubble of genres and is why I say they are not accustomed to other music. Yes they may hear other music but not everyone hears it as often and clear as i think some of us need to really understand what we are hearing. If you don't like it than you don't, totally fine with that too, people are different and I'm glad you finally heard that gem 💎 👏👏👏 -still Your NJ neighbor

[@djlivvy46]

@@WM20s - your comment about diversity is interesting, because to me you were actually coming across like every other Western reactor. Which is understandable, because nothing like this exists in the West, and possibly the world. As you go deeper into your journey, you will understand that BTS is not just a group, it's an experience. There are music videos, live performances, stage performances (which are live in a studio), and much more. And the attention to detail is always top tier. Even the Cyphers were not made just for the sake of talking, they were detailed clapbacks specifically aimed at all the people who mocked the BTS rappers for entering the idol industry. And it is the BTS experience which makes them unlike any other band, everything has layers and there is no room for the surface thinking which permeates the Western music industry. When you are further into your journey, you might like to watch the BTS Hardships video and the Spring Day Explanation video, and just those two videos alone will show you why BTS stands head and shoulders above everybody else in the music industry today. You might also enjoy watching an explanation video or two, because it is actually impossible for a Western person to comprehend the nuances of most BTS songs without one.

you should react to the „Tears“ live performance. Its also a full rap song and the lyrics are insane. loved your reaction!!

[@hemildatubelliza4540]

I love this reaction so much. Shame on me that I just saw this now. I love that you focus deeply on the lyrics that's why you vibin' to it even though you couldn't understand it. ♥️

Check out "UGH, UGH Explained, ON KMF, Persona, Shadow and Ego!

[@jordyn29]

Omg yes please watch outro tear. It's one of my favorites from rapline.

[@FranKa6]

Thanks for the honest reaction! It would be cool if you reacted to "Outro: Tear" (live+lyrics) so I'll be looking forward to it! "Outro: Tear" talks about a time when BTS was considering disbanding.

[@jelalejanaabubakar7860]

Please listen to the full BTS cyphers. It's soo gooddd and hyped specially when you rap along. I recommend Outro:Tear it's a play on words tear - teardrops, tear - tearing something apart. The song is about their disbandment and when Suga played it with the boys, they all cried together. The lyrics were so harsh so... just interpret it for yourself. It's literally not about heartbreak over a relationship but more about the boys and their careers.

[@jessicapierce3027]

YES, watch Outro: Tear live!!! I love watching BTS defy expectations for new listeners. Thank you for your reaction. An underrated rapline song is Skool Luv Affair, especially RM's verse.

[@elvee1770]

this is the kind of reactions i want to see from youtube when it comes to bts, not those who blatantly saying comments in between of watching videos. thank you for appreciating the rap line of bts. also bts albums are really the whole package, its like they are the living genres of music i hope you'll get to explore more of their music because they are really amazing musicians. im a fan of them since 2017, so thank you for respecting and speaking your opinions , take care :)

[@keiratamati3762]

Suga is the aggressive one when it comes to his rap, i recommended watching daechwita or “agust d” by agust d, thats him.

[@lorettaevans3242]

Love this line 12:12 "sorry but I'm going to make more money, just watch. Please make sure to stay healthy."

[@lieny]

Yeah! It's a combination of all their 4 cyphers put together!! Would really love if yall can react to all 4 cyphers one by one!!

[@shaylablueangel]

Yes, “Outro:Tear”. The cyphers were like that, just a response to the other rappers that said they sold out to be an idol, (guy group). Also, the cyphers were at the beginning of their career. Now, their raps are different, they talk a lot about loving themselves, self aware, loving those around you, and respecting each other. Not just the raps, but also all their other songs with all members. They have so many different types of genres so their is something for everyone. Getting into the rap line in particular, they make references to certain things in their culture, that we might not understand. For those, there is a Chanel on KZbin, DKDKTV, that explains the songs where we as foreigners wouldn’t understand. “Hiphop lover” is a song that the rappers talk about who influenced them and who they listened to, and why they love hiphop. The vocal line sings the hook, or chorus, and rare rappers do the verses. Some of my favorites are “UGH”, “Outro-Tear”, “Ddaeng”, watch the explain videos that I mention before for the first, and last song I mentioned. Those have all three rappers in it. RM, Suga, J-hope have mixtapes on sound cloud, but they also have music videos out or lyric videos out by themselves. My favorites, RM- “Do you”, “Joke”, “Persona”. Suga “AGUST D”, “AGUST D-2”, “Shadow”. J-Hope, “1verse”, “Airplane part 1”, “Ego”, “Day dream”. Vocal line has four guys, Jin, Jimin, V, and Jungkook. My favorites of theirs is “House of cards’, “Truth untold”, “Zero-O’clock”, “Dimple”, but I don’t think you would like that one, but still good. V has the soul type vibe to his tone and music, so “Singularity”, and “Stigma” I think you would like. Jin- “Awake’, “Epiphany” Jimin- “Lie”, “Serendipity”, “Filter” Jungkook- “Euphoria”, “My Time” As a group, to many to think of. Not all their group songs as a whole are all alike, they all give you something different. Some songs I didn’t think I would like because it’s not really my style, I ended up loving because of what they bring to the music and how amazing they make it sound. “The introduction to the seven members of Bangtan: updated” is a good video to watch if you want to know about them and what they each do in the group.

[@Ebirux]

You can feel waaaay more hyped in this performance with the better version since this one is a fancam.

[@anishishah4008]

YES PLEASE DO OUTRO TEAR

[@euphoriahope3934]

outro:tear live is a must 😫☝️. And for their r&b/new-soul songs I think you guys would like house of cards, just one day, singularity, and I like it.

[@kimberlyb9499]

Check out 2021 Festa BTS Room Live. It is a medley of a few of their songs from 2013-2021 in 10 minutes. Gives you a a snippet of what their catalog is like. They have very diverse songs and suggest you listen to the full songs after watching the Festa Room Live. Also these cyphers were also snippets. Definitely go back and listen to the full versions of each cypher.

Great reaction!! If you wanna see more profound rap songs, I recommend: >Outro: Tear (Live performance >Strange >Respect >The Last >UGH (And the explanation!! Essential to understand properly bc there are a lot korean references) Those are my favorites :)

[@dondons27]

Daechwita by Agust D aka Suga is what got me listening to RAP. All three of the RAPline have solo songs and are all different. The light stick is called an Army Bomb. They are used at concerts and can connect via Bluetooth to the seat where you are and can flash in time with the music. They can be programmed at the concert by the organisers to spell out words using different colours. It is a beautiful sight. Thank you for such a good and honest reaction

I genuinely loved how you started the video and I genuinely appreciate your thoughts and reactions It gives me joy when more people find out about BTS and we can all relate to the feeling together
