Yes, his motto is that the listener has to feel the song without understanding the language. And yes, he rhymes on different languages and mixes them together Korean English Japanese and he uses words from other languages as well.
RM is known for playing with multiple languages. Rhyming and making references and analogies that work across the different languages. “Trivia: Love” is a great example of that.
“Around the World In a Day” is my personal favorite on Right Place, Wrong Person.
RM is a genius. He is rhyming in Korean and English
the Adidas fit is deliberate throwback, Korean fashion is now more forward than US. He is throwing back to 80s in more ways than one, love this track. Whole album is great.
RM/Kim Namjoon has spoken at the UN, the Whitehouse, and has received numerous awards for being diplomatic... the most diplomatic voice for young people across the world so the line is funny, but people expect him to be proper when he gets stomped on but not so much in his eyes, RM means Real Me. He is a very proper speaker and the team loves him. They even received awards from Korea for puting SK on the map economically. This guy has an IQ148 and is very smart, nature lover, heavy reader, and still a boy in someway. Every album is a change up of style - genious. Indigo he had a quest on each song and wrote about things like an art piece, and still life paint. Check it all out.
RM and SUGA can rhyme in Korean and English for the same lyrics. I've seen it many times, and it blows my mind. These guys are genius's and master lyricists. RM started out as a poet, and his poetry and lyricism have gotten better over the years with all the experience he got. Not to mention that the man reads all the time and he's one of the main songwriters for BTS, since before debut.
San Yawn is his partner on this project, from Balming Tiger - alternative K-Pop collective group. He started this project right before J-Hope enlisted in the miltiary and RM was going to go at the same time. San Yawn said RM needed to do another album before he enlisted, so he worked with him and his team. I'm glad he did, because he gave us a masterpeice. RIGHT PLACE WRONG PERSON alternative album.
RM is a great writing in English and Korean, picks like words and rhyme. This is what he is known for and words always have a double meaning depending on what he is saying. Check out older stuff, and BTS rapline Ddaeng, Ugh, and Tear... all these have words which double down. there are also explanation videos to understand why? Especiall Ddaeng. he is so good.
Bcs he is genius lyricist and songwritter . Thats why, listening to his albums is like a journey, an experience throughout his ‘sound’ that u’ll never realised u just started and suddenly it is the last song of the album .
No one come to his talent in rapping, songwriting, composing and producing ❤❤ his discography is so rich 🔥🔥
Yes, I love how funky this song sounds. RM is a poet. That's how he wrote his songs. For those who knew all the things happened to him and BTS definitely can relate to this song.
Bbangsang is Korean meme. It's kinda form of alien speech or gibberish. Probably what he meant was it's not worth talking to those people properly as they aren't worth to consider as human. Nothing is simple with RM😅😂.
his words mean a lot. all rappers words if they write their lyrics like BTS rappers do, their lyrics are important to them
Groin is great but nuts and domodachi are my favorites on this album. You gotta react to Agust-D from BTS the trilogy: deschwita, haegum, and Amygdala
The monk reference has meaning. RM once had a conversation with a monk that he rightly assumed would be private, only to have the monk share it with the press
RM has a commanding voice. whenever he speaks or raps, I can't help but pay attention :)
RM once said that he pays a lot of attention to how song sounds, how words hit your ear.
And it is true, cause to me I absolutely fell in love with BTS songs because of hiw they sound and how they use words and voice changes, inflictions, emotions. I don't have to know translation to understand that what emotion is behind song and that there is smth they are telling us. And their lyrics are just cream and cherry on top! Makes you learn souch from cultural references to astronomy😅
Oh no that is not a coincidence this man is a genius a IQ 148 this is our fearless leader usually graceful turn the other cheek dont engage Army losing his fucking mind in the best way and finally after 10 years of turning the other cheek and being the bigger man telling haters off it's delicious! No you are mistaken it's not what you think the word means bulshit basically not the thing you made the shape of your fingers funny enough the thing that you did is bts's calling card what none of the seven will it ever hurt anyone
6:45 it sounds similar to English because ut is in English. RM mixes two languages in a song. And all his songs heavily. He also does double and triple entendres in Korean and English. In BTS songs they also use English, sometimes it is one word, sometime a hook, for it to be catchy for international audience etc.
Try listening to the entire album in order. Amazing.
Thank you so much for your reaction, please Rm Nuts live video and 'Lost' MV
"Not a f'in diplomat" was in English, it was just where RM put the emphasis on the syllables that perhaps made you think that it was a Korean word. Also, the translation of Korean lyrics to English is not word for word. RM rhymes Korean with Korean, English with English, and brilliantly, Korean with English. But when you see English captions on Korean verses, it's not RM writing those, and because translation is not word for word it's unlikely that they will rhyme. In fact, English CCs are usually simplified on MV translation, and do not capture the intricacies and nuances of the Korean language.
Nothing BTS does is a coincidence. RM has an IQ of 148 and considered himself a poet before he found rap and hiphop. His wordplay is always 100% intentional; there is even wordplay in other BTS songs between Korean, English, and Chinese.
As of June 8th, RM's album (RPWP) was number 1 on Billboards top hip hop album charts. BUT, we are talking about a member of BTS here, so chances are you would not know this information. I mean, number 1 for an alternative rap album sung mostly in Korean? What an achievement. If he doesn't get at least a Grammy nom in the best hip hop or best album categories then that will be a travesty.💜
No nom xD as expected from Grannies
Love RM 🥰🥰🥰🥰thank you
Please react to Nuts and Domodachi
Nuts live MV is amazing! 🔥🔥🔥
Nuts la canción de RM
Amo el álbum de RM es hermoso
I hope you check out Joke! It's made to showcase his flow. I think you'd really enjoy it.
Don't bother trying to read the lyrics. Just let it flow. Trust me, you can go back on the lyrics after, but a flow focused listen first will blow your mind.
I have to say BigHit subtitles stepped up over the years. Now they try very hard to rhyme English translations with the Korean original. I love it, very clever! 💜💜💜
10:45 "above the law" is correct, cause to be above the law is to be someone who thinks of themselves and higher than law, disregards law is corrupt or felon intentionally
Listen to Nuts by RM or Lost
Gracias por la reaccion a mi talentoso Rm.ojala sigas reaccionando a estos talentosos chicos de bts .los amoooo!! Saludos desde chile.
Love this song and your reactions
Such a fun song!
bts - hip hop lover
Waooo justo estaba buscando reacciones y salió esta, claramente lo veré, gracias por reaccionar a RM 😊
In the terms of the album this is the most raw.
Any day is a good day when I get to hear Grand Master Flash mentioned, let alone while I am enjoying listening to a BTS member's music! Thanks for your BTS reactions and look forward to more.
Allow yourself to just enjoy the music first. That is what I do. I then go back to understand the lyrics which includes translations of the words as well as the cultural translations and other contexts. Then I go back in and listen to the song and / or rap again. If you like the vibe of this one I think you will like the whole album too.
BTS rapline are among the best rappers in the world. They are RM, Suga/Agust D and j-hope. Each of them has multiple solo albums, and there are also BTS songs with just the rapline together and solo rap songs from rapline members on the BTS albums. All the BTS members have solo songs on BTS albums.

UGH! (recommended to watch DKDTV's explanation video affter to help unpack lyrics for language nuance and cultural context)
Ddaeng (also watch the DKDKTV explanation video after you have a crack at it, or you will miss a lot)
Cypher Series 1-4
plus lots of other solo songs from BTS albums like Intro: Persona, Interlude: Shadow, Outro: Ego, and many more. Each one of BTS' albums, as a group they have 20 and as soloists they have 14, is a concept album with tracks in a storytelling order, and some of the albums are linked in sets or series on themes.
There is a TON of fantastic music you get to discover for the first time. I'm jealous. BTS has hundreds and hundreds of songs and there are no skips as far as I am concerned.
💜💜💜
🔥🔥🔥
12:10 he's in UK. He's fitting in with the Brits😂
It's coz he's the leader of a very influential band and the only one who's fluent in English. Everyone wants him to speak up about all the troubles in the world and express an opinion on it. That's why he says just because they became successful, everyone wants them to step it up. And he's right, he's not a diplomat and BTS doesn't have to be.
💜
Here is some extra info on RM for you...
Name Kim Namjoon Born in 1994
He is BTSs leader, main rapper, composer, songwriter, producer... he has over 220 song copyrights and is the youngest and most credited Idol and a full member of the Korea copyright association
He is known for his deep lyrics and moving speeches.
Predebut RM, known under the names Runch Randa, Largo, Stealo, and the Nexist in the underground hiphop community was already a prodigy in rap despite being 13years old (he started in the underground scene at 11 years old) impressing other rappers. RunchRanda which basically meant 'I am Runcha', he has said it was inspired by a Maple Story game character he had at the time.
He was known to be so good that even older underground rappers in their 20s and 30s didn't wanna battle against him.
Also, because of his low-midtone voice, philosophical lyrics and flashy rap skills he gained popularity among hiphop fans. (Jungkook of BTS joined the same agency as he had been so impressed the first time he saw RM perform...)
Throughout 2008-2010 , RM (Runch Randa or Randa ) was mentioned multiple times by other rappers in their songs mostly complimenting RM or wishing they had skills or fame as him. An example for that is when Zico* made a diss song to Philophon (35yo) who is also a rapper saying "you got your ass handed to you by a 13 yr old Runch" referencing that Philophon already lost to teen Namjoon.
RM joined BigHit in 2010 at 15 years old. His audition.was watched by the CEO BangShiHyuk and RM was offered a contract on the spot.... He was 18 when BTS debuted.
💜
English isn't even his second language. His second language is Japanese. He thaught himself English by watching Friends (the series)...
They are both a second language
The "Bbang-sang Halmeoni" (빵상 할머니) meme comes from a Korean TV show where an elderly woman portrayed a quirky, eccentric fortune-teller. She became famous for chanting strange, nonsensical phrases, including the memorable "bbang-sang." Her exaggerated and comedic delivery, combined with the absurdity of the phrase, quickly made this a viral meme in Korea.
RM makes a playful nod to this well-known meme.
The BTS rap line (RM, Suga, and J-Hope) perform a song Ddaeng and RM, in his verse, uses the word “ddaeng” seven times with a different meaning each time. Please react to [Bangtan Bomb] BTS Prom Party : Unit Stage by BangtanTV. Turn on the cc for lyrics. After, please watch Ddaeng Explained by DKDKTV for a thorough explanation of the lyrics. RM also does a stutter rap on his verse.
Hi! If you’ll decide to react to Nuts please choose the album version not the live performance.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉😊
You should check the rest of the album personally I think this is the song that I like the less in the whole album I like the lyrics and the song but compare with the rest of the album ....
Sam Yawn producer for Balming Tiger and a producer on RPWP.
A música 'Groin' de RM, é uma expressão crua e direta de frustração e rebeldia. A letra aborda a presença de pessoas irritantes e incompreensíveis no mundo, e a resposta do artista a essas situações. RM não se preocupa em ser diplomático ou em representar alguém além de si mesmo. Ele enfatiza sua individualidade e a necessidade de se expressar livremente, sem se importar com as opiniões alheias.
A repetição de frases como 'Get yo ass out the trunk' e 'I fuck it up' reforça a atitude desafiadora e a recusa em se conformar com as expectativas sociais. RM utiliza uma linguagem forte e explícita para transmitir sua mensagem de resistência e autoafirmação. Ele reconhece que a raiva pode ser prejudicial, mas escolhe enfrentá-la de frente, sem se deixar abater.
Além disso, a música também reflete a luta interna do artista entre viver de acordo com as normas sociais e seguir seu próprio caminho. RM menciona que, apesar de tentar viver de forma correta, nunca se sabe o que pode acontecer. Ele pede compreensão e apoio, sugerindo que a verdadeira amizade se baseia na aceitação mútua e no respeito pelas escolhas individuais. 'Groin' é, portanto, uma declaração poderosa de autenticidade e resistência contra a conformidade.
