I can’t speak for all K-rappers, but BTS definitely knows rap/hip hop history. They even wrote about their early influences and what it means to them in a song called Hip Hop Lover. J-Hope often references how J-Cole has been his music hero and a major influence from before BTS when he was a street dancer. His first mixtape was even called Hope World. This song is part farewell for now to ARMY because he’s about to do his mandatory military service and part homage to J-Cole. Some people wonder why J-Hope doesn’t rap more on this track, but it’s almost like a duet reminiscent of his dancing roots when J-Hope is dancing on the subway platform to J-Cole’s verse and symbolic that he goes from that to meeting him at the top of the building. They met met last summer when they both played Lollapalooza. J-Hope told J-Cole how much he loved Friday Night Lights and that Higher was his favorite song.

[@trollplayer5725]

Yes BTS rap line has pure hiphop influences, however the Korean Media and Korean Entertainment for Kpop idols were not ready for an idol with hiphop rap concept at that time thats why every album they slowly adopt and made new album that fit the "Kpop Idol" taste. Even now, Korea is not a hardcore rap fan coming from black rappers. They only know Epik High, Tiger Jk, and Jay Park style of rap which is not bad since they are Korean

[@aleksisuuronen5969]

The end kinda mirrors the start. I got like he would be talking to younger self, then kinda goes in the video a journey (signifying a lifes journey for how it started), ends up in the rooftop tapping Cole kinda signifying where he is now. Comfortable, happy but obviously in a middle of change.

[@LiveLikeVIX]

So, a lot of people are reacting to j-hope for the first time and trying to understand why j-hope did the song structure/ verses the way he did. But I think many people struggle to understand his background and beginnings - which are in his “dance on the street”. So when you saw him give an extra verse to J.Cole on the song, it was because he was giving JC the verse to yes, express himself lyrically but also so j-hope has it to dance on top of. Every one of those dance moves were a throwback to moves he used in different performances or moments. So, this was to the fans of his dance history - j-hope on the street. I believe it meant more for him to have J. Cole with the space needed to express himself in verse while he could then dance on top of the beat. Why would he “give up” the verse to J.Cole? He said that was his muse when he met him so I think he wanted to hear what JC would say if given time. Plus he got to dance on that spot. I love it. Sooo much. 👏💜❤️🏀

Definitely, there is a lot of mutual respect in this collab. BTS did a song Born Singer in 2013 months after their debut based on J Cole's Born Sinner. There was a massive nod to their hip hop inspirations including J Cole who is a huge inspiration to J-HOPE particularly. There are nods to J Cole in a lot of his solo music. They never officially released the song, it was just available on Sound cloud until they released their anthology Proof last year which is when they contacted JCole to get the permissions. Since then JHope headlined at Lollapalooza and met J Cole there and I guess this collaboration idea was born. Also, one of the reasons J Hope dances here more than sings is because this was his nod to his roots as a street dancer and a goodbye for now to us, fans as he is going into obligatory military service in the next month or two. So there were Easter eggs in the mv for the fans, nods to his personality and background. 💜 I'd recommend to check out Cypher Pt.3 Killer from their latest concert in Busan in 2022 with English subs. The rapline of BTS absolutely slaughtered it. You'll get a kick out of it. It was a free concert by the way for 50-70K. And it was sooo good!

As big as Jcole is and how respected he is as an rapper, Jhope did not get on this collab to cross over to the American industry for popularity or exposure. Jhope is just as big of an artist and both are in their own rights. This may not be as well known since alot of people are not tuned to the other music generes and what Kpop is or the current music trend is going. Jhope help produce and write this song to dedicate it as his last song for his fans before enlisting to the military. He has always respected and mentioned how much JCole was an influence to him as an artist. JHope along with his group BTS has crossed paths with JCole in the past. They even covered one of his song "Born Sinner" long time ago in their younger days coming up. I'm sure JHope wanted to give JCole a bigger role in this song as his purpose was to show his respect for JCole as an artist. I believe his interpretention for this song was the fact that he started as a dancer. JHope is a rapper, producer, singer and dancer so he wanted to reflect the old days when he used to post live videos of him dancing for his fans. Sometimes alot to JColes tracks and those videos of him freestyling back then were called "Hope on the Street"...

[@caca81773]

[@histfictfan4460]

Jhope started as a street dancer, and has been a huge fan of J Cole, citing him as his muse for years. You can find references in Hip Hop Phile (2014): "Hope hope world, before I built my own world, there was Cole world When he lit up Friday night, I became more inspired to write my own music". Jhope's mixed tape was really titled Hope World. The group also reworked Born Sinner, renamed Born Singer, early on, but never officially released it until they asked for permission (it is a possibility the seed was planted then). It's on their recent PROOF anthology, and there's a live version from the desert. But the get together was probably conceived when the two J's met at Lollapalooza this past summer. Jhope, in case you didn't know, was a headliner and had just released a solo project, Jack in the Box. This was a beautiful meeting of chill, humble people who never just phone it in. Also it was a gift to the BTS fandom from Jhope before he leaves for mandatory military service. Thanks for the thoughtful reaction.

[@reneezemlock7880]

Hobi wrote and co-produced the melody as well as recorded the whistling in the background. Jhope has said JCole is his favorite rapper. He was an award winning street dancer BEFORE joining BTS and he used to dance to Cole's music all the time. He said he wanted to do a song that went back to his roots... hence the mad respect of giving Cole 32 bars on his own track so that he can just dance and vibe to Cole. They met for the first time this past July when JHope headlined Lollapalooza. BTS covered "Born Sinner" with a track titled "Born Singer" in 2014. Cole gave permission this past Summer for them to release it officially so it is on their anthology album "Proof". BTS' leader, RM, also just released and album "Indigo" in December that has songs with Anderson Paak, Erykah Badu, Tablo, and others. Suga, the third rapper of BTS is about to start his first solo tour this April. You can see the moment the two met at Lolla on youtube. It was also put in a documentary that BigHit just relased called "J-Hope in the Box" that is about the making of, release, and performance of his album "Jack in the Box".

[@ttucker330]

Thank you for a fair and open minded reaction. Since this song dropped I have seen a disheartening amount of negativity towards J Hope. You were correct that BTS have strong roots in hip hop. Two of the three rappers did come from the underground scene and because the group was changed up from being strictly hip hop to a kpop group they were catching it from both sides. The underground rappers were calling them sellouts and the kpop community said they didn't meet the beauty standards of being a kpop idol. They were also shaking up the kpop industry as their small independent label was not following the industry 'rules'. They grew their fanbase by posting vlogs prior to debut and releasing songs on SoundCloud for free. From the first album on, RM, Suga and J Hope were writing their own rap lyrics and songs for the group. Suga was producing beats. They also had a few in house producers instrumental in creating the music. All the members write and produce at this point. At that time it was not common for idols to have creative freedom/input. J Hope started as a hip-hop dancer prior to joining bts. He has cited J Cole as a big influence on him when he began writing his own lyrics and beats. He learned to rap practicing with RM and Suga. All three have their own distinct styles which keeps things interesting. These three are true lovers of hip-hop and continually pay homage to their rap influences. Others in the comments have mentioned two songs that would be great examples of this. Again appreciate your reaction and look forward to more BTS. You have a new subscriber. 💜 😊

Jhope also has writing credits on their first album 2 cool for school. Not just rm and suga.

[@judithstaley3642]

[@dagmarbubolz7999]

@@trollplayer5725 I mean since rap is all about what is being said, it totally makes sense that they go for Korean rappers mostly as many Koreans don't speak English at all, Korean as a language has a different structure and there can be a lot of wordplay specific to their type of alphabet in their raps. And frankly as a German who's not bad at English, but it's so hard to understand the US rappers sometimes, and then the references that you can't pick on if you are not to deep in the slang

[@schafferable]

There are so many different aspects to this song and mv. Hobi was inspired and idolized JCole at the beginning of growing into a rapper; JCole waits to meet Hobie when he arrives at Lollapalooza, just to meet him which is saying something especially since he was the only artist who sold out the last night of the concert. In the video J-Hope is still on the streets and working on his dream of becoming a great rapper, J Cole a seasoned lyrical rapper is up on the rooftop and very successful - you don't see him on the streets because he is already seasoned as a rapper and put in his time. The respect that J-Hope has for J Cole - he gives him over a minute and a half to his own 30 seconds of rapping speaks volumes. J-Hope wrote a melody that would showcase J Cole. J Cole speaks J Hopes's name saying this is our world and then Hobi climbs to the roof where J Cole is because he is on his way. J-Hope is an outsider to the western rapping music world and J Cole is saying come on over... like Chris Martin/Coldplay. Oh yeah, one more thing... J-Hope goes back to the subways like when BTS first started, at the end of this mv you see J-Hope coming up out of the subway and then going to the roof with J Cole. One idol encourages and believes in another. There is room at the top for a Korean rapper too who crosses the language barrier. Respect man!

[@kmirandac3947]

React to HIP-HOP PHILE and BORN SINGER BY BTS. In hip hop lover (2014), Jhope gives a shout-out to J.Cole. He literally named himself after him. The rappers name all their influences in hip hop phile and most of them are old-school rappers. BORN SINGER is the BTS adaption of BORN SINNER by J.Cole in 2013 when they debuted and J.Cole gave them permission to use it for the first track of their 9th-anniversary anthology album on June 13, 2022. While there is a lot of hip-hop influence in the K-pop industry, BTS is one of the only groups that actually credit the people who created and shaped hip-hop. They are actual students of the game.

[@maryhduke2307]

The little kid at beginning represents both Army (BTS fans) and the young J.Cole. Both the kid and J.Cole are wearing green puffer jackets. Jhope shows the path from the street, subway (underground rap/dance) as both his and J.Coles career rises. J.Cole is already there when his career starts. Jhope rises to the same level as J.Cole...hence the roofyop scene. Both are on top!!!

[@maryhduke2307]

Fyi... the Army fanbase is 70m+

[@jg5615]

[@mhaddow3660]

J. Cole has been JHope's inspiration for years. JHope was the headliner at Lollapalooza last summer (in Chicago) and he finally met J. Cole in person. J.Hope told him how much his music has meant to him. That's how this collaboration happened. JHope made it happen, he said it was his one chance and he took it.

[@lelelu6604]

j-hope (Hobi) is enlisting in the Korean military. This song is a "see you later." to his fandom, ARMY. That's why he seems so focused on the hook. He wants us to know it's for us. Also, J. Cole is a huge, HUGE influence and inspiration for j-hope. BTS is made up of 3 rappers, and 4 vocalists, two of the 3 rappers were underground rappers before joining the group. You should check out RM, j-hope's, and Agust D's mixtapes and albums.

[@deborahwertheimer771]

Wow!! What a great reaction!! 💜 BTS ARMY here and thank you for being so open minded and giving credit where credit is due!! JHope met JCole at Lollapalooza where he performed (and was the highest selling artist in Lollapalooza history. As a result, ARMY refers to it as Hobipalooza. Hobi is JHope's nickname. 😊) JHope told JCole he is his muse, complimented his mixtape etc. You hit the nail on the head in your reaction on how JHope had a smaller part in the song, hence 'with' instead of 'featuring' JCole. This is JHope showing respect to his muse. ARMY are so proud of JHope and happy for him because this is a huge moment for him. 💜 I would love to see you react to something that goes a bit harder from BTS rap line which consists of 3 of 7 members: JHope, RM, and Suga. They did a few cyphers. Here is the link to Cypher 4 (my fav) which is color coded to show who is rapping and also has English translation: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIuopXVpqcadg68 . I'm also pasting a link to an amazing fan edit of the stage mix of the live performance of cypher 4: kzbin.info/www/bejne/epCqq3hojcqFsNk . This does not have English subs so you will want to watch the first link followed by the second link. In the live performance you get to witness their insane energy and just feel their passion for what they do. I subscribed to your channel so I don't miss it!! 💜😊

This also shows JHope’s confidence. He doesn’t need to prove himself. JHope/BTS always show respect to their idols. You have a new subscriber. I look forward to seeing you react to more BTS rap line.

[@VanCityGal]

Wow, Army thanks you for such a respectful review of this song! J-Hope as well as the other two rappers in BTS (all the members actually), are very well aware of hip hop history and pay homage to the greats and their idols in hip hop. I'd highly recommend you check out their song Hip Hop Lover for that. I also think you'd be surprised at how hard these guys go as rappers. All of the members have their own solo work and unit songs. You can check out Arson, More, Stop Outro: Ego for J-Hope. Joke, Do You, Into: Persona Still Life (With Anderson Pak) and Wildflower for RM and Daechwita, The Last, Nevermind and Interlude: Shaddow for Suga/Agust D. For rap unit songs we have Ddang, Ugh, Outro Tear (about the band's potential breakup). I also really recommend Born Singer, a BTS song reimagined from J-Cole's Born Sinner.

[@ysk8671]

Enjoyed your reaction! J-Hope met J.Cole for the first time when J-Hope headlined Lollapalooza last year...incredible performance and the most fan attendance in Lollapalooza history. J.Cole has been J-Hope's inspiration since his street dance years as a teen even before he joined BTS.

Jhope gave jcole 32 bars because he respects him so much. Jhope met jcole at lalapalooza and jhope is a big fan of his an they have been friends ever since they met.

[@hopeworldstudio]

j-hope is known for his poetic lyricism. his middle and end rhyming schemes are crazy. j-hope often comes up with atypical song structures. he always leaves us wanting more. even though j-hope's verse is short, it's jam packed with meaning for army. even the music video has a some beautiful imagery for j-hope's fans. the memorial on the street is likely a reference to the tragedy in Itaewon on Halloween. fun fact, j-hope came up with the melody by randomly whistling. j-hope went back to his roots of street dance while his idol rapped. it was so meaningful to j-hope and his fans. i love J. Cole's verse and how genuinely nice he was to j-hope. the harmony was so beautiful. Love them both!

[@amiraamin9977]

JHOPE is a part of south korean group BTS, they were initially a Hip Hop group then expanded to create their own genre of hip hop, rap, pop, many other styles. they have 3 rappers all write their music. JCole is Jhope's inspiration and muse. they met last year in Lollapalooza where Jhope headlined ( you can check Jhope 2022 Lollapalooza performance. he performed his Album Jack in the box) the song was written by Jhope and produced by BTS's in house producer Pdogg and it was a dream come true for him that's why he gave Jcole all the time he needed on this song while he danced in the subway like he used to when he was young dancing to his music. there will be another version with only Jhope. more BTS rap songs " AGUST D, RM JOKE, UGH, Cypher pt 1, 2,3,4) and you might also enjoy Mic drop. thanks for your reaction :D

[@Bonusdoc]

There will be a j-hope remix without J Cole feature coming out soon, so it’s all by design that the collab version gives J Cole more bars to shine, entirely out of respect j-hope has for J Cole. Also, the purpose of the song isn’t really to make a radio hit, or crossover expansion: it’s a temporary good bye gift from j-hope before he enlists in the Korean military.

[@lillium6568]

J Hope started street dancing at 10 years old he used to dance to J Cole. J Hope has done Dancing videos called "Hope on the Street" for his fans for years. He is getting ready to go into the Military in Korea Mandatory. This is his " I am still dancing see you later " for his fans. He met J Cole at Lollapalooza and they have been in touch.

[@justlareen2132]

JHope headlined Lollapalooza 22' coming off his new album "Jack in the Box" and hit " More" and "Arson", and met his Idol, JCole backstage. JHope wrote this after his meeting him and his last song to his fans before he enlists in the Korean Military.

[@digitalpunkdiva2894]

KPoP is an industry. What the west is most familiar with is "Idol" music which is a subcategory of korean music. There is K hip hop, rnb, ballad, jazz, alternative, folk and rock. Jhope was a street performer that began with hip hop as a dancer. The art direction and style is reflective of JHopes origin story. BTS no longer "needs" collaborations with western artists. This was a special request from JHope to his "idol"JCole.

[@sam693691]

To me they never needed it, I always feel embrassed when some media is pushing who they want to cobalt with or some people pushing for it with western artists. BTS do not need it, they are bigger than that. But like J Hope and J Cole it is paying respect to someone he looks up to..

[@milissadaniels2727]

This was an organic collaboration they met at Lollapalooza where J Cole played on Saturday and J-Hope played on Sunday to the biggest crowd in lollapalooza history. ARMY (The BTS fandom) came in force.

[@ryanscott-yc8lc]

J-hope went live to tell us that he made this song with J.Cole in mind. Cole is his idol and hope had studied him for years. He made a mixtape Called Hope World after Cole world. J-hope will be enlisting in the military soon and he said he had to try and get a song with J.Cole in this lifetime. You should check out Hip Hop Phile by BTS their rap line has studied old school hip hop and name drops a lot of the greats. J.Cole is so amazing he heard the track and told Hope the song was fire, he’s so humble and one of the greatest rappers of all time in my opinion🔥

[@susan-bv7ym]

This mv is a farewell for now to fans (army) as j-hope will go off to military service as required in SK. He along with the other rappers in BTS are students of old school rap/hip hop. J-hope in particular pays his respects in his most recent album Jack in the box and these are the beats he also used when he started out with dance. This mv is structured to pay respect to the music that has inspired him including the artist J. Cole. He did meet J. Cole at Lollapalooza and he almost lost it lol. J-hope can hold his own, he is a lyrical rapper and his flow is insane but this for him was about J. Cole. He is a humble, respectful guy. J-hope invited J. Cole to this last song for a few years. This is a very emotional song for his fans and a full circle moment on a track with his idol.

Thanks for the open-minded reaction. Based on what you said about JCole's lyrics, you're going to LOVE digging into the BTS rapline's stuff. (Though, RM makes the argument for atheism with similar force and beauty to what JCole says about belief here.) Also, the end of Cole's verse in this song picks up the themes of JHope's entire recent album, Jack in the Box. There's a lot of mutual respect baked into this track.

[@MistikButterfly]

JHope is a Major JCole Fan. JHope is about to start his Mandatory Military Enlistment and this song is his Goodbye to ARMY (BTS Fandom). He started from very early (10 yo) as a street dancer. Hip Hop has been his soundtrack since Day 1. Previously he paid homage to DJ Webstar and Young B by remaking Chicken Noodle Soup. He paid 2Mil to use that song and released it for free. BTS are Major Rap fans, consisting of 3 rappers and 4 vocalists. They started as a Rap Group back in 2013. Their Journey is nuts bc it is the ultimate Underdog Story. They went from all 7 members Sharing one bedroom, recording their 1st album in a garage, no funds, small company near bankruptcy, to being who they are today. RM (Rapper, BTS Leader, Main Writer, Producer) JHope (Rapper, Dance Leader, writer/producer) & Suga (Rapper, Main Producer, Writer) - they put so much emphasis on their respect for Hip Hop & Rap. Please check out "Hip Hop Phile" release 2014.the 3 rappers pay homage to their inspirations in Rap. "Born Singer" 2013 is cover of "Born Singer" Jhope Solo projects are "Hope World" (mixtape) & Jack in the Box (album). You two would not regret exploring BTS music. Thank you for the reaction and being so respectful! 💜👑💜

[@stephanielemons2995]

I know a lot of ARMY are giving a lot of info about this song and its backstory, please allow me to give you a little more. Yes, J Hope considers J Cole his muse, it's why he goes by J Hope, and why his first mix tape was called "HopeWorld." This song and the whistle you hear is all J Hope. Hobi (his nickname) has said that he had a melody in his head and he would whistle it. Now his first real solo album was released last year in June, it's called "Jack In The Box." U should check it out, it may surprise you. On the album as an interlude you can hear this song, without the lyrics. And in July of last year at Lalapoolza, when J Hope not only headlined the final night, but he met J Cole then. During his performance, he played this song in between his dark and light sets. Was that the time they decided to collab, we may never know, but I do believe it was the first time J Cole heard it. I do love how Hobi was coming from one direction with what he wanted to say, and J Cole was coming from another direction, but somehow they become one direction at the end. J Cole may never know how much he has done for both J Hope as well as the rest of BTS, but I hope somewhere along the way he finds out. I will be forever grateful to him for giving Hobi this incredible gift.

You are asking the right question to the right people. BTS wanted to learn about the origins of hip hop. BTS came over to L.A. in 2014 to absorb the culture of hip hop. They took them to Crenshaw, Compton and the boys stayed in a scary pad in Downtown L.A. One of their trainers was Coolio, of Gangsters Paradise fame. Coolio was not easy on them. He would quiz them on the history of rap and If they boys missed a question, he'd make them do 25 push ups. He taught them about the importance of details and if you ever get into BTS you will realize that lesson did sink in. He also set up talent challenges for the boys to compete in. J.Cole has always been Jhope's idol. Jhope wrote his lyrics on Hip Hop Lover. I found out more about myself Hope world Before I made my own world, Cole world Ever since he shone on Friday nights I got inspiration and wrote my songs. Some of the first songs they wrote were about their respect their heroes of rap. They literally name their idols in the song Hip Hop Lover. Here's some of the names they named in the song: Epik High Just like others Jay-Z, Nas And of course the classic Illmatic and Doggystyle In my mind, KRS-ONE And Ready To Die, Eminem And The Chronic and the next classic 2001 Gang Starr, Black Star, Eric B Rakim, Pete Rock and CL smooth

[@Lea4holidays]

Hello! ARMY appreciate you reacting to the MV. In a way this is a full circle to J-Hope. He started out as a street dancer & learned how to rap when joining BTS. J Cole is his inspiration to rapping. It’s also a farewell letter to ARMY (fans) to inspire them to continue living, growing & changes as his military duties are in effect soon. Remember love yourself & speak yourself! 💜

[@andreakellar3423]

J-Hope and J. Cole met at Lollapalooza and decided to collaborate at some point and this is the brain child. 💜

[@candicesmith-mackenzie6303]

Imagine being a little kid growing up in South Korea, you love Hip Hop and dancing is your life. JCole is your idol, who you fashion your rap style after. You grow up and get to write a song for your idol and dance and rap on it. Crazy world!!!! "Simplicity is the highest form of sophistication" you should put that on a t-shirt. This MV is old school Hip Hop. It's shot on the same alley as Cole's Simba MV. None of us, BTS fans are surprised by the collab. BTS is humble and what they choose to put out into the world is uplifting and always well done. They are lyrical rappers and poets just like JCole. 😘💜🧡🫰🏻 Thank you for your wonderful reactions.

[@secretyidentity2833]

If you want to, Hiphop lover is one of BTS songs where they name drop artists who inspired them in hiphop. It's a banger and will answer your question abt how much they know of hiphop history. (At least for BTS)

[@HailToTheMeep]

People who like to box others into little corners on their small mind dislike BTS as they don’t fit in any category. Just like people of mix races who often are forced to choose a side because others can’t deal with their narrow minds, BTS and their company build themselves from the ground up. A lot of blood, sweat, and tears. I honestly don’t know how they survived it. Judging from this tribute, listening to a lot of J Cole might be part of it: J Hope J Cole Hope World Cole World Looking back Letting go Reflecting on the journey so far Looking forward Moving on Thankful Goodbye for now J Hope What a wonderful tribute Thanks for the reaction

[@Txtxikersateeezstraykids]

we must respect JHOPE. he is in a BTS group with all seven members JHOPE he is talented and impressive and amazing. he is a rapper and singer and dancers .he is a songwriter and producer. he is a leader dancers of BTS main dancer. he is really the best artist in kpop. this is really the best dancers in kpop. 💯💯💯👑👑👑

[@ArianJable]

Thanks for this reaction. :) J-Hope is one of the main dancers and dance leader of BTS. He was originally a street dancer, but his talent as a rapper blossomed as he became BTS. As a rapper, J.Cole has been a hero to J-Hope. On the Street is a song J-Hope made with J.Cole as a gift for their fans ARMY to say goodbye for a little while. It started with J-Hope's whistling accidentally, and J.Cole added his amazing verse to the melody and beat J-Hope made. I think it would be really meaningful for him to collaborate with J.Cole on a brief farewell song before joining the military. I can feel J-Hope showed great respect for him in this song. As an ARMY, I'm so happy with this collab.😭 BTS is consisting of three rappers and four vocalists. And all seven of them are excellent dancers. BTS members are about to join the military. The oldest member, Jin, already enlisted about 80 days ago and is serving under the Korean law, and J-Hope is going to join the army soon. Other five BTS members will also serve in the military and will be reunited in 2025. So they are briefly stopping their eight-year group activities and focusing on their solo work. They do a wide variety of music, but basically they are rooted in hip-hop. All seven members are participating in making their songs by writing, composing, and producing them. Now BTS is the biggest boy band in the world. But they started with a small company that almost went bankrupt, so they have been very looked down and hated by Korean broadcasting stations and other K-pop fandom. So they have struggled from the beginning to prove themselves. I highly recommend Mic Drop's MV and the live performances. (It's one of their billion-view music video.) The direction of Mic Drop's lyrics began with the idea of J-Hope. And 'Mic Drop' at the end of this music video is a performance created by BTS leader RM inspired by Barack Obama's speech. :) The lyrics of BTS' songs are based on their own experiences, and their albums are organic because they contain their growth narrative. It will also be fun to listen to their albums in order and analyze them. :) And if you're interested in J-Hope's live energy, I recommend about an hour and 20 minutes of performance at the Lollapalooza Festival, where he participated as a headliner. j-hope - Live at Lollapalooza 2022 (Full Performance) kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJLOZqyFos9rjZo For reference, the day he performed recorded the highest demand ever for one-day tickets among Lollapalooza performances. :) I recommend his another collaboration, j-hope 'Chicken Noodle Soup (feat. Becky G)' MV, too. :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/n2OWf3iHequjnbM

[@djguidopolese]

There are so many Korean rappers that smack the shit out of some of the best USA rappers... In all South Korea, Philosophy it's a big thing so their lyrics are usually full of doubles ajd triples or ar simply so good metaphores and deep lyrics that hit u in the guts... Pegasus PLEASE continue this Korean journey, you would not be disappointed! My next suggestion would be: BTS - UGH + BTS UGH explained by DKDKTV to understand fully the lyrics and the cultural references. OR, to understand their rap influences, just react to BTS - HIP HOP LOVER. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@maryfebry2211]

-hope went live to tell us that he made this song with J.Cole in mind. Cole is his idol and hope had studied him for years. He made a mixtape Called Hope World after Cole world. J-hope will be enlisting in the military soon and he said he had to try and get a song with J.Cole in this lifetime. You should check out Hip Hop Phile by BTS their rap line has studied old school hip hop and name drops a lot of the greats. J.Cole is so amazing he heard the track and told Hope the song was fire, he’s so humble and one of the greatest rappers of all time in my opinion

[@ricerolls]

Did anyone mention here that the beginning of this video is filmed at the same location as J Cole’s MV Simba? I’m relation to J Cole being his inspiration, jhope starts where J Cole was in the video and walks ‘through life’ via the underground dancing to J Cole’s verse then makes his way up to the top of the building where J Cole already is. Symbolically, you can say J Hope through the video made his way to his idol who to him is already on too.

[@lize-mtz753]

BTS came here when they were really young and trained with Warren G and Coolio to learn hiphop. It can be seen on American Hustle Life. They were out on the street handing out flyers for their free concert and now they sell out Wembley.

[@IThink2Much]

Thank you for the great reaction. A lot of ARMYs have given you some background on our guys. I just want to say that, although BTS is not everybody's cup of tea, I've seen so many people (myself included) who realized that they are so much more than a boy band after giving them a chance. I really hope you at least give them a further listen. They are 7 of the kindest, funniest, most hard working, and humble guys who ever worked in the industry. And I truly respect them. I would recommend checking out On: Kinetic Manifesto and Mic Drop. Also, for rap line (RM, Suga, and J-Hope) I'd recommend Ugh! and Ddaeng and the DKDKTV "explained by a Korean" videos for them. They also have live performances for them (they don't have MV's). For solo work, I'd recommend Arson by J-Hope, Daechwita by Agust D, & Joke by RM. I'm not sure what genres you might like besides rap, so I'll just leave it at that for now. 😊

[@moonnanic]

J-hope is a long time fan of J.Cole

[@yvonnerichardson316]

BTS filmed a reality show called American Hustle Life in 2014 (I think in 2014) to learn American hip hop culture. Coolio and Warren G were a part of it. They have quite a bit of hip hop knowledge.

[@jelalejanaabubakar7860]

J-hope said J. Cole is his *muse.* The behind the scenes is up here in YT if you're interested, it shows a bit of their (Cole & Hobi) interaction and J-hope's freestyle to the song, it also explains some part of the MV ^^ The last scene of them shaking hands come from Jermaine asking Hobi to add something, and that's how we got the handshake. Jermaine said _he_ wanted to reach out to _Hobi_ and Hobi is just having a fanboy moment, feeling blessed with Cole's presence 🥺 They actually first met in Lollapalooza last year and now we're here with the best gift. J-hope just went with the flow while dancing, being a street dancer of origin, hip-hop runs in his blood. I suggest y'all react to J-hope's Chicken Noodle Soup (which he payed the rights for and Young B & Webstar thanked him), the lyrics touches on his passion for dancing. And yes they know hip-hop and it's history because they were once in a reality show called "American Hustle Life" where they learned all about hip-hop back in 2014, and BTS started of as a hip-hop group that's why the first two members (RM & Suga) to join BTS are underground rappers, J-hope is the 3rd and he's a well known dancer even before becoming an idol, he's known as "Smile Hoya." He felt out of place so he learned how to rap with the help of the first two members (RM & Suga). When J-hope was young, he listened to "Friday Night Lights" by Cole and felt inspired to create his own beats. That's why he refers to J. Cole as his "muse." They have a song called "Hip-hop Lover" and he referenced J. Cole. BTS also sampled "Born Sinner" and called it "Born Singer." J-hope has a mixtape in 2018 called "Hope World" (Cole World) so yeah... Hobi respects J. Cole and hip-hop a lot. He grew up feeling hip-hop with his body. J-hope does freestyles on livestreams and it's called "Hope On The Street" (H.O.T.S) where you'll see him dancing to various songs, mostly rap songs you don't expect someone will dance on (he literally dances to any type of music, even if it's a music box 😭). This is why in the MV he danced to J. Cole's verse because that's where he started, underground street dancing to J. Cole's song and other hip-hop music. They were messaging each other and J. Cole asked how long should he make it, J-hope said to however long he needs to say his message 💗 huge respect (J-hope has a version with just him but it's not released yet). He has crazy body control and musicality, he never misses a beat from his heels and to the tips of his fingers up to his head flicks. I'm glad y'all are chill, I cried watching the MV lmao. J-hope's enlistment, Cole letting his "daughter" (rap) grow... I love them so much 🔥🥲

[@nirvana6172]

j.cole verse resonates well with j-hope's song called "ARSON" and "MORE" he understands j-hope's sentiments about his music & career. mad respect to j.cole

[@JoobieLoobieSoobie]

Something helpful to understand about Korea's history is that for most of it, they were under the rule of some other country, kingdom, or empire. They did not win full democratic autonomy in modern history until 1987. Let that sink in. There is a defining concept in Korean culture called "han" that Korean society, art, and music are influenced by. The best way to describe han is a collective feeling of despair, grief, anger, and resentment shared by all Korean people. It comes from their long history of being impoverished, subjugated people (despite that, they have held onto their language and writing system that is wholly unique to Korea. No other language uses their alphabet, and no other language that exists today is related to the Korean language). The name for Korea in their own language is Hanguk - the country of Han. As if they are part of a nationwide family, Korean people call everyone's parents "mom" and "dad," every male friend "brother," every female friend "sister," and so on. Close friends don't even bother with names, and will always address each other "Brother" and "Sister." Young people discovered western hip hop and R&B in 1992, shortly after the country was finally freed from authoritarianism and colonial rule. And it was a love affair from day one. There is respect, knowledge, and more importantly, an emotional understanding of the roots of black American music of all kinds, from jazz to blues to hip hop. They understand because of han. Sometimes the appreciation crosses over into cultural appropriation, because there are ignorant and racist people everywhere. But it's rare, and in most cases artists self-correct when they become educated about their errors.

[@sharonlahaye5803]

J-Hope is first and foremost a street dancer. He is the Dance Leader and one of the 3 rappers of BTS. This song is a farewell to his fans because he has enlisted in the military. He has always considered J-Cole his inspiration to become a rapper. I think that's why J-Cole's feature is so long. Anything shorter would have been a sacrilege to J-Hope.

[@jeanettasheehy3018]

Jhope started dancing at age 10 and JCole has been one of Jhope's major influences and he grew up listening and dancing to him. He literal made this track with JCole in mind....he wanted to dance to JCole one last time before he has to do his mandatory military service.

Excellent reaction! BTS members love to pay homage to and if possible, collaborate with their favorite artists. Did you know J-Hope headlined Lolapalooza last summer?! It was EPIC & set all sorts of attendance and merch. sales records!! BTS rap-line [RM, SUGA, & J-Hope] are worthy of diving into: especially 'Outro Tear' live, 'UGH', 'Daengg', Cyphers 2-4, ...many all-member songs are rap-heavy, too, like 'Bapsae' or 'No more Dream'... J. Cole was truly highlighted here; and I was so happy to hear him stand so firm about God!! Amen! God is indeed real!! And most importantly, Jesus is REAL and actually returning VERY soon!!

There is NO WORK to do to be saved!!: Simply BELIEVE that Jesus is God's Son who paid for all of our sin-debts with His own blood! = No greater love & BEST GIFT EVER!!! Don't be left behind!

Wherefore comfort one another with these words." 1 Thess. 4:16-18 "For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

so many easter eggs in this MV. The alley in the beginning is the same alley J Cole's first MV Simba was filmed. this is J-Hope paying homage to his muse and his beginnings as a street dancer. As others have pointed out, J-Hope collab with J Cole was not to get into the American market (cuz he's already here) but to have the chance to work with someone he has long admired before enlisted in the military. thank you for your reaction and I hope you continue your journey into the KPOP scene.

BTS and jhope know hiphop history. They have a song called Hiphop Phile which is a tribute to hiphop and their influences. You have to Check it out after this song. It acts as an introduction to BTS. BTW it's just bts whos done this. Korean hiphop scene is extremely racist and known for cultural appropriation. The reason bts is different is because they were cut off from the korean hiphop scene. They walked their own way. So they had opportunities to meet artists like Coolio and Warren g and Wale early on in their careers which shaped their approach to hiphop.(khiphop artists don't really interact with hiphop adtist in America much) Coolio was kinda like their mentor during a show they did in 2014, a year after their debut. BTS IS NEITHER KPOP NOR KHIPHOP. They kinda stood outside limited concepts like that from the beginning. which is why their music stands out internationally.

[@jennptx]

Would love y'all to dive into Korean hip-hop and rap...as well as the rappers in BTS. If you like deep, thoughtful, lyrical bars, you can definitely find them in BTS team and solo music. All the artists you mentioned that don't write throw away lines are some of the ones who influenced RM, SUGA, and j-hope the most. Thank you for this reaction!

[@anaisc8733]

I'll be totally transparent in my comment. First thing to know, BTS have three rappers, called RM and Suga with J-Hope. KHip-hop is a different scene, they have amazing music out there but a lot of Korean rappers - not all - either don't know about the hip-hop culture or they use it and don't give any respect/credits, it's mostly an aesthetic for them. However BTS is different, RM and Suga (the other two) were underground rappers since they were 13 years old and J-Hope was a street dancer - that's why you see him illustrating Cole's verse by dancing. They are fans of a lot of OGs, they always cited them as their inspirations including in their songs, they know about the culture, and always gave credits. RM collaborated with Warren G, Wale, Erykah Badu, and more - he has an upcoming collaboration on Pharrell's next album, Suga collaborated with Juice Wrld two times, I mean I could go on. As for this collaboration, when BTS debuted, not one month later they dropped - unofficially - the cover of "Born Sinner" to "Born Singer", which became a thing for BTS and our fanbase - ARMY. J-Hope dropped in 2018 a hip-hop mixtape named "Hope World" in reference of Cole World. Last year, BTS dropped an anthology, they contacted J. Cole to know if they could release the song officially, J. Cole agreed. Fast forward, a month later, J-Hope went to perform at Lollapalooza where he met J. Cole in person - you gotta know but J-Hope is a huge fan of J. Cole, he called him his muse - and after that, J-Hope likely contacted him to make this happen. J-Hope is going this month to serve in the South Korean military - as per mandatory - for about a year and half, he wanted to drop a song for the fans, as a gift, so it's meaningful for us. He cut short his verse to focus on dance - which is his beginning as he was a street dancer prior and gave his idol, Cole, the room to spit his bars as he respect him immensely. I'm just saying, BTS is crazy talented, they write their own lyrics - specially the rappers, they also produce and compose, their pen game is among the best if you want to check it out, from their hip-hop songs in their discography as a group - they have more than 300 songs from various genres - to their own solo work. RM recently released his album (he has two mixtapes prior), you can check "Still Life" ft. Anderson Paak, such a good song. J-Hope released also his album last June, that's why he was at Lollapalooza, I mean it's old school hip-hop/rock. I would say if you want to check his stuff you have "MORE" it's more rock, or any old school hip-hop b-sides like "Future" or "Safety Zone". As for Suga, he has an upcoming album, but already two mixtapes out, check out "Agust D" or "Deachwita" - his solo artist name is Agust D. You should definitely check them out more, you're missing out on some good stuff. Anyway, thanks for this reaction guys, take care.

I think you'd enjoy all the mixed tapes and solo works of the 3 rappers in BTS: RM (formerly known as rap monster/rap mon) and Suga (aka Agust D) and j-hope. RM has collabs with Erykah Badu (Jun), Warren G (P.D.D), Wale (Change) and Anderson Paak (Still Life) among others. RM and Suga were underground rappers. j-hope was a street dancer who learned rap with RM and Suga among others. They have studied Hip Hop culture and demonstrate respect paying homage at every turn. There was a Korean TV 'reality' show called 'American Hustle Life' that the entire group (BTS) participated in back in 2014 that took the group to LA and it was basically a 2 week hiphop bootcamp where they learned about the hip co culture, history and the meaning of rap from several people, like Coolio and Warren G. Their rhymes are bilingual and culturally as rich as they are complex. RM's the poet, Suga shoots fire, j-hope floats, twist and turns as he does in dance: lyrical rap. Check them out. j-hope (often called Hobi) performed at Lollapalooza last spring and it's a great hour to catch. Suga/Agust D is going on tour in the states this April/May. All will be heading off for requires military service and hope to be together as a group (BTS) in 2025. Since I emphasized the rapline above I must just close this with saying there are a lot of hiphop songs in BTS's discography, including some Cyphers in there. The guys sing in a lot of genres. It's a travesty to box them into the 2 or 3 songs you might have heard on the radio. Many of their best songs are B-sides.

Y’all can KZbin JHope meeting Jcole backstage at Lollopalooza for the first time and you’ll see the most wholesome interaction ever. JHope is part of the biggest group in the world but absolutely could not contain his fanboy energy when meeting his biggest musical hero, Jcole. And Cole was just so nice. They ended up exchanging numbers and thus this collab was born. This is also JHope’s last project for a while because he is about to enlist in the military (it’s still mandatory in South Korea because they are still at war with North Korea). So for Jcole to really take time to write a deep and insightful 32 bars for this collab really means a lot to us JHope fans.
