I highly recommend BTS ROOM LIVE 2021!! It's an extremely popular video! ( an 8-minute medley of their b-sides throughout their career 2013-2020), It's not fully hip-hop or rap but it's a great video to check out their versatility, there are some pop songs on there. But it's a great live performance that showcases their chemistry and live singing/rapping skills! I hated pop but with them, since they incorporate rap to it, it never really feels like it's just a pop song.
Agree. Specifically the Wembley performance here: ua-cam.com/video/UDuaJGYe8EQ/v-deo.html. It’s iconic. But honestly before reacting to that, I would suggest BTS room Live(2021 Festa),Mic Drop, Black Swan and ON Kinetic Manifesto. Not strictly hip hop, but would give you a better understanding of what BTS has to offer. Plus it showcases just how strong they are as performers/artists and how well they work with each other (IMO).
@@mmm02mmm Yeah, you've got to work up to Tear or you can't appreciate how monumental that Wembley performance was. Maybe UGH live from ON:E or some Cyphers before you rip their hearts out!
I agree with the comment replies, it might be better to wait on Outro: Tear if you guys aren't used to reading along with the lyrics/subs! Everyone's providing a lot of helpful comments and advice, so going with anything IMO would be fine even if y'all need to build up to Outro: Tear. :)
J-hope headlined lollapalooza this year and the entire hour was INCREDIBLE. So I highly recommend to watch a live performance. Also, I recommend "BTS ROOM LIVE" so you can appreciate their musical diversity, their vocals, and of course their rap. Edit: if you watch it, don't forget to turn on the subtitles.
CYPHERRRS ARE COMING ~~ but I think ya’ll would appreciate Black Swan too! It’s super cool and the meaning is what really gets me (I won’t give too much away but would recommend it). Also I’d highly recommend their live performances, they sound better than their studio versions!!
I would actually recommend the song Safety Zone another solo by j-hope if you want more hip-hop sound. This is very old school hip-hop influenced and one of my favorites.
BTS room Festa live is a good one to look into. They do a medley live of some of their songs throughout the years. I also recommend watching the music videos for the songs too because it adds another element of artistry to the song itself . South Korean music videos are well thought out and insane to watch This is BTS is a great introduction to the group and let's u understand why they are so popular and many people respect the guys more when they see their roots. It's understandable that listeners only hear what bts puts out on the radio and think they just represent the pop fun side of music when they came from a hip hop background and have an underdog story.
BTS rapline is no joke. BTS rapline: - UGH - ddaeng - outro: her - outro: tear - Cypher 1-4 - intro: persona - interlude: shadow - outro: ego BTS songs I feel like you guys would like: - dis-ease - home - come back home - mic drop - no more dream (this was their debut song)
Hehe....it's time you get to the mighty CYPHERS😱 the CYPHERS portray how all the three rappers have extremely different flows and the Wordplay is amazing 😍
Thanks, guys. I really enjoy your reactions and your BTS journey. This song actually has an awesome music video. Maybe you can watch it on your own time. For your next reaction, I'd definitely recommend "Daechwita". Please react to the official MV, it's incredibly cinematic. Their three fully-English songs (Butter - Dynamite - Permission to Dance) were released during the pandemic and were purposefully upbeat summer songs to bring joy to their fans during the hard times. These were written by Western songwriters (with RM contributing to the rap parts in "Butter"). They also released a Korean album "Be" during the pandemic and it's a completely different vibe from the three English singles. The album takes you on a journey of emotions that we all had during the time -- depression, loneliness and separation, being trapped in our homes, being pressured to productive with all the free time we had -- but also hope that things would get better. As with everything that BTS does, they manage to balance a sense of realism and a feeling of hope. They performed some songs from this album in a series of *MTV Unplugged videos* (good subtitles available). You might want to check them out. ========== "Arson" is from J-hope's recently released album *Jack in the Box* and the other single from it is "More". The entire album is amazing. It tells a story from beginning to end. It's only 22 minutes, but it has 10 songs and he manages to pack a lot into it. I hope you'll consider doing an album reaction. You can use a subbed visualizer video of the entire album from "Enjoy BTS More" or lyric videos of individual songs from "af taehyung". J-hope was an underground dancer who danced to old-school hip-hop, before he joined BTS. I think he said the songs in this album reflect the kind of music he danced to back then. =========== UA-cam sources for videos with good translation: *HYBE* and *BangtanTV* The official channels of BTS and their label.

Jhopes lollapalooza performance was Amazing. Even though its long (over an hour) it shows his talent super well, it has songs from his new album and old one.
J-Hope raps like a dancer/breaker. He makes songs that I feel like he’d genuinely wanna freestyle to and wants others to dance to as well, but I may just be saying that knowing his background. Either way, this man has musicality that you only get from passion, not training.
You should have watched the MV of this song you definitely would enjoyed it, I recommend you watching "Change" by RM and Wale it's in English you were asking for and it's one of my favorites by RM.
RM has a new song out that he featured in! it came out two days ago! you should check it out. its called SEXY NUKIM by Balming Tigers btw Nukim means “feeling”
List in order of what I think you’ll enjoy: - Daechwita (Agust D or Suga) - Ddaeng (also check the live at Enjoy BTS More) - Ugh - Baepsae - cyphers! - joke by RM - Give it to me by Agust d
You should watch the live presence at lollapalooza, j-hope as an artist has one of the best stage presence ever Also, "hobi" (not hopie) is an affective nickname used by himself, his fans and his co-members ( i think I've seen the members call him hobi of r even hoba more than anything else, they are all very close and lived together for 12 to years so it makes sense). Hobi fits his real bubbly personality a lot, which gives a big contrast between him and his music. The lollapalooza performance really shows how badass he is on stage. An absolutely insane performer, probably one of the best performers to ever exist, especially for a rapper.
Glad you like BTS. These are a few rapline solo songs recommendations. J Hope - ‘More’ mv Agust D(Suga) - ‘Daechwita’ mv Rm - ‘Joke’ mv Also some b sides J Hope - Hansang live performance @ lollapalooza, Pandora’s box and Equal Sign @ lollapalooza as well. Suga - ‘First love’ lyric video, ‘Moonlight’ lyric video RM - Persona mv, ‘Reflection’ live, Forever Rain lyric video or mv.
Yess what a great way to get into J-hope’s music! Love what you said about this sounding old school because all the members of rap line are huge fans of old school hiphop. They are very much inspired by rappers such as Eminem, J-Cole, Nas, old Kanye etc.. They talk about this is in their song Hip Hop Lover. As you know, Suga and RM were both well known underground rappers before becoming members of BTS. If you want to be really shocked I suggest checking out AgustD’s song The Last (AgustD is Suga’s name when he does solo stuff - his name flipped backwards + DT for Daegu Town, the city he was born in) and RM’s song Joke.
@@12ManyReactions lmaooo yall are funny i guess i deserved that😂 no but fr i loved this reaction. also, i just saw i forgot to put the links for my suggestions so here they are. the last - ua-cam.com/video/gyv6tVNTEqk/v-deo.html, joke - ua-cam.com/video/OxMrBNBWksM/v-deo.html also sorry for the spam😅 i was maybe a little too much but i hope you know it doesn’t come from any bad intentions. sometimes ppl on the the internet are just overdoing it lol. lots of love💜
As far as Jhope goes, he burned the stage at Lollapalooza, showed the world that he is a SUPERSTAR. it's a great show, beginning to end, but if you just want to check it out a sample, the Baseline / Cypher1 / Hangsang segment is a must-see. Enjoy BTS More has English subtitles including banter in between songs and the translation is supposed to be CORRECT as opposed to color coded lyrics
I really want you guys to react to his whole Lollapalooza stage after listening to his mixtape Hope World and album Jack In The Box......I still not over that performance..the artist and perfomer he is on stage is mind blowing
I remember when I first listened to Arson I was blasting it and the girl next to me could hear it through my headphones and she asked if I was listening to Cypress Hill, so I definitely think it’s giving vintage hip hop vibes
Yes, Arson is amazing! It’s the last song off his new Jack in the box album, and the song is basically about the fire of his passion/career/“thoughtless ambition”. He was the one who lit the flame, but it’s gotten out of control and is burning him as well, and now that he burned down everything for the enormous heights of his (and his members’) popularity, he has to ask himself “do I put out the fire, or burn even brighter?” That’s what I take from the meaning. J-hope was a pretty famous street dancer for years before BTS - he grew up dancing to hiphop so he’s really influenced by that type of music and is super well versed in the genre. Thanks for this :)
I recommend you to listen jhope solo album Jack in the box, it contains 10 tracks, including the lead single, "More", and the follow-up single, "Arson" (you’ve just listened). Primarily old-school hip hop record, the album features a blend of genres, including pop, grunge, and R&B. He performed at lollapalooza & it was amaziiiing!! And i recommend you check out the young hiphop bts from their first album, no more dream, the rapline song (ddaeng, ugh, cypher 1-4 & outro:tear)
Thanks guys. J-hope just did a whole set at Lolapallooza and he performed this live. It was epic, his whole set was epic. I hope you can put it in the queue. 💜
The MV makes this song even harder. J Hope is a showman through and through....even when he's not bringing his top notch dancing skills. Thank you for appreciating Hobi. He's proving to be one of the most visible and prolific soloists from the group and I'm so proud of him. I can only imagine how brave he would have to be to go off on his own after growing up with and performing for 10 years in a group, debuting a new album in America where he isn't proficient in the language, and where Kpop is still treated like a joke, and at a festival like Lollapalooza, headlining as a replacement for Doja Cat, which already caused hate towards him even before performing. But after his performance it was nothing but glowing reviews and no one could say anything bad even if they wanted to, because one thing you may have already learned about BTS is they, and everything associated with them, is quality. Even J Hope said he exhausted himself rehearsing so that he wouldn't bring shame to the group as the first one out on their solo era. First impressions and all that. Mega pressure, I can only imagine. If you like Boom Bap, you'll love Dis-ease, which J Hope helped produce/create.
Not Sure if You're familiar with Carl Jung's Theory of Personality, but BTS did a whole album trilogy called Map of the Soul based on it. Rapline did an Intro, Interlude, and Outro that all have MVs with subtitles if you wanna check them out. Intro: Persona is RM/Namjoon - ua-cam.com/video/M9Uy0opVF3s/v-deo.html Interlude: Shadow is Suga/Yoongi - ua-cam.com/video/PV1gCvzpSy0/v-deo.html Outro: Ego is J-Hope/Hoseok/Hobi - ua-cam.com/video/LmApDbvNCXg/v-deo.html RM and Wale, Change, its all in english ua-cam.com/video/9rAyprZdo7o/v-deo.html If you guys want to check out a R&B style vocal line only live performance House of Cards - ua-cam.com/video/YBKKxw0Vw9s/v-deo.html And you might enjoy Airplane part 2 with its Latin vibes for a full group song/change of pace - this one is in Japanese not Korean ua-cam.com/video/CxnJf0tWu48/v-deo.html and this is a live Korean performance ua-cam.com/video/CoLUXSooPfY/v-deo.html BTS has a HUGE discography, welcome to the rabbit hole
Please watch j-hope's Lollapalooza performance. He was amazing and I'm sure right up your alley. He was a headliner, so onstage for over an hour. You'll not be sorry. It's probably too long for a reaction video, unless you break it into parts. But, I'm certain you'll like seeing it just for his amazing talent performing for over 100k audience!
Daechwita by Agust D (Suga) is awesome. The music video is a must, not just the lyric video. You can turn closed captions on any of their videos to get the lyrics. The link to Daechwita is ua-cam.com/video/qGjAWJ2zWWI/v-deo.html. Mic Drop music video will blow your mind! Also, ON Kinetic Manifesto Film. And btw, dude's name is J-Hope, pronounced just like, "Hope you have a nice day".
I love the reaction and I really appreciate u taking the time to check him out still wanna point out sth real quick - ppl are saying j-hope only learned rap after joining the team as a dancer well yes it is true but HE WAS A STREET DANCER from a very young age! he is NO stranger to hip-hop at all. If I may say: Hip-hop is actually in his blood. That's why I think he is the closest to hip-hop he basically grew up with hip-hop it is engraved in him. He has it two ways from dancing and rapping. That is why hip hop comes naturally with him. You know how hip-hop is all about making your own style but keeping it hip-hop? THAT IS EXACTLY J-HOPE. This man's rap is just TASTY. you said the other day j-hope is more of a melodic rapper well I don't see how this can be considered an underestimation at all! Not exactly melodic in 'today's terms' but his style is all about flow and rhythm. It is so addictive and he can tolerate his voice to fit EVERY song. So instead of melodic I would go with dynamic. You can also describe his style as 'creative' he experiments a lot and is everywhere with his flow. He's unpredictable and that is my favorite thing about him. I've been a fan for 6/7 ys now yet I have no idea how J-hope is gonna sound in the next song be it a solo or a group song. like you never know what you're going to get from him! He can also put so much feeling into his voice which is very captivating and impressive. In short, he brings life to songs and so many colors. His verses are almost always the highlight for me.
I'm really glad you're giving J-Hope a shot! I love all the guys in the rapline but J-Hope is my bias. RM and Suga definitely are hardcore underground rappers and while J-Hope had to learn /develop rapping while a trainee, I think it's important to recognize and appreciate that his rapping style is different from the others(all of their styles are) I think he brings something different BECAUSE he was, in fact, a dancer first . There is a lyrical and melodic way to his music that really is because this man understands dance and rhythm. ALSO, thank you for the Flatbush Zombies reference...because that's exactly what I thought when I first heard this song but no one knew what I was talking about lol I can def tell you guys have a deep appreciate for hip hop which honestly J-Hope and the rap line all do as well. So excited for your journey! and like others have suggested, THE CYYYPHHERS , DDAENG, UGH! ...all musts ( but please try to watch the explanation videos in addition to lyric/live performance videos for these because their Korean lyrics are really important in understanding the songs as a whole)
There’s an mv for this song. J-Hope solo was a headliner at the recent Lallapalooza in Chicago. It was awesome. It ‘d be great if you reacted to some of that, especially Baseline, Cypher Pt. 1 (Hangsang)
The official music videos have English subtitles. Also - BTS sneaks up on you and we’re all ages from all over! I found them a few years ago in my mid-40s. I was a fan of indie/alternative up to that point.
BTS' early albums were hip-hop heavy. Rap line songs - UGH! & Ddaeng (DKDK explanation suggested), Cyphers 1-4, Outro:Tear (live performance at Wembly Stadium suggested). They are even better live. You should also check out their MMA & MAMA awards show performances, especially 2019 MMA. No one does awards show performances like BTS.
ahh thank you so much for reacting to this! and wow good job with choosing the song blindly lol you really picked a great one. good hunch😊 here’s a tip though: please do not use color coded videos from lemorning or jaeguchi for your reactions. their translations are terrible and inaccurate, and don’t even make sense most of the time. in general, korean is very hard to be translated into english but this channel does a fairly good job of translating bts’ lyrics m.ua-cam.com/users/BBTS9717. if you decide to react to cyphers please use the videos from this channel m.ua-cam.com/channels/r_h1AKhI17kNyt0NcFx4AQ.html , all other lyrics videos are quite bad. you guys have a great taste so far, i’m really looking forward to more reactions💜
so true lyrics video on youtube are translated badly. there is official website called 'doolset bangtan' which has all bts songs lyrics translation with all hidden meaning. i still think reading lyrics from website is more usefull than watching these videos.
honestly, people think we became BTS fans cause they're a 'boyband' or because of how they look or whatever but if you actually stop and listen, they genuinely make good music! Sadly its cause the bloody radios only ever play their pop stuff that its what they've come to be known by. Its simply not true.. while many ARMYs gave bts a chance cause of their pop numbers, they stayed for the b-sides and lyrics.
JHope is the ultimate performer. Saw him headline Lollapalooza - unreal!! Arson actually has an official music video with subtitles, which is way better than lyric videos. Also if you could pair song lyric reactions with live performance videos you will have a deeper understanding of the overall mega talent of this group. Enjoy the journey.
Thank you for reacting to Arson by JHope. The whole album of Jack In the Box is amazing. You should also checkout BTS official MVs and live performances. They are always dope. Also more of BTS please. I was waiting for you to drop next BTS' reaction video 👀💜
So excited for you guys to dive into more BTS I’ve been a music junkie and a boy band fan specifically for many many years now since the late 80s and when I discovered BTS I had never seen anyone do it like they do they are truly icons top-tier artist I’m also excited for you to dive into more of their behind the scenes videos so that you can see more of their personalities and how down to earth and humble they truly are it’s gonna be a fun ride and I’ll be watching!
This song live is even better. You'll come to find that BTS, in any combination, sounds amazing in the studio, but live is on a whole other level. Also, the 2021 Festa Room Live is a great one to see little snippets of their diversity. (Festa is the celebration they do for their anniversary every June, where they release a bunch of extra stuff for ARMY, and this live was one of them that year). They did a medley of tracks from their Debut Album in 2013 to 2021. There's a whole array of genres there, and it's a live vocal performance.
Just found this video and loved it, FYI in the album j-hope just dropped (jack in the box) he samples 'shimmy shimmy ya' by ol dirty bastard (wu tang) in his song 'what if' bc he's a dancer and he love dancing to wu tang
I would really like to recommend you guys to react to their Music videos obviously with captions on coz their music videos are insane, live performances are a must as well 😉💜
Oh I’m definitely seconding the suggestions for Hip Hop Phile! I feel like it’ll be perfect for you to get a grasp of just how well these guys treasure hip hop :]
You can't do BTS anything without visuals! Always go for a live whenever possible or the official MV, seeing Hobi on this is like a punch in the throat 😂 I bet you'd like More as well as Arson. You freaking need to do Joke by RM and Shadow by Suga. For the Cyphers, 2 is my favorite personally but all 4 are awesome. An army favorite is Outro Tear, we found out a year after the fact that Suga had written that when they had considered disbanding, all 7 members cried when he played it for them, it's another punch in the throat, incredible song. The first verse is tear like crying from RM, second is tear like ripping from Suga and last is fear from J-Hope 💜 ua-cam.com/video/UDuaJGYe8EQ/v-deo.html
Back in 2014 BTS went to America ( American Hustle life ) and they were submersed into intense training with Coolio, Tony Jones and Warren G where they toured the streets learning everything hip hop n rap and even wrote their own lyrics to Regulate. The series is controversial but they embraced it and learned respectfully . These guys definitely have roots to their endless talent. Check out their endless list of collaborations. RM alone has worked with Wale,, Warren G,, Krizz Kaliko, Fall out Boy and Lil Nas who Im sure you’ll recognise. . You’re about to fall into the endless rabbit hole of talent. . Enjoy being amazed . . It’s constant with these guys 😋🔥💜
GREAT REACTION. Appreciate your open-mindedness. BTS has a discography of approximately 300 songs covering various genres. Can't wait to continue this journey with you. OT7 💜🇳🇦
It is good that you have overcome the barrier of prejudice and have an open mind to listen to BTS, they are great rappers, the 3 rappers with very different styles, thanks for the video, stay healthy and happy 💜💜💜💜
He was a frontliner last LOLLAPALOOZA in Chicago and performed this and a lot of his songs in front of 100k attendees and 14M online viewers. This man is insane. Actually everybody in BTS is amazingly talented. They are seriously worth it. React to their MV, Dance Choreos/Practices and Live Performances. Lyric videos on the side if you want to delve into their lyricism. They are great lyricists and one of the reason why they are so loved is because of the messages they want to share through their song. A lot of ARMYs would take the time to translate their korean songs to english and provide explanations for the wordplay or korean references. Doolset is a great go to when going through their song lyrics.
I agree with Room live suggestion, and there's a song in there you'll like, and the dkdktv Ugh! Explained by a Korean is MUST WATCH if you want to get a sense of their genius wordplay. Korean provides cultural context necessary to understand by BTS is known for their deep lyricism
Arson is lead single from Jhope album "Jack in the box" it is quite short album under 30 min. And it is very much woth old school vibes. There is even track What If that samples Shimmy Shimmy ya by Ol' Dirty Bastard
I highly recommend BTS ROOM LIVE 2021!! It's an extremely popular video! ( an 8-minute medley of their b-sides throughout their career 2013-2020), It's not fully hip-hop or rap but it's a great video to check out their versatility, there are some pop songs on there.

Dude the MV is awesome you should check that out!! Also his live performance at Lollapalooze is amazing 🔥🔥
its insane the locals on reddit couldnt even believe it
yessssss every song my fav Baseline cypher 1 and hangsang is all on one video live performance we calle it hobipalozza
Yesss at lolla would be a good reaction
PLEASE Check his performance at LOLLAPALOOZaa ITS SOOOOO GOOOD 💥💥💥🙏🏼🙏🏼
Oh jeez I've been calling it Hobipalooza so much that I ACTUALLY forgot it's Lollapalooza and other people performed too hahaha
J-hope headlined lollapalooza this year and the entire hour was INCREDIBLE. So I highly recommend to watch a live performance.

Cypher from part 1 to 4 you guys should listen to them.. the rap line from BTS, suga, j hope n RM
G DRAGON THE KING ,
Yess give J-hope his props 👏🏼. His album (where this track came from) Jack in the Box is amazing. Since we're on J-hope, I recommend More.
I would actually recommend the song Safety Zone another solo by j-hope if you want more hip-hop sound. This is very old school hip-hop influenced and one of my favorites.
jack in the box is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. its sooooo freaking amazing
BTS room Festa live is a good one to look into. They do a medley live of some of their songs throughout the years.
I also recommend watching the music videos for the songs too because it adds another element of artistry to the song itself . South Korean music videos are well thought out and insane to watch
This is BTS is a great introduction to the group and let's u understand why they are so popular and many people respect the guys more when they see their roots.
It's understandable that listeners only hear what bts puts out on the radio and think they just represent the pop fun side of music when they came from a hip hop background and have an underdog story.
yeah bts BTS room Festa live also have subtitle! btw just click the "cc" button

G DRAGON THE KING ,
BTS rapline is no joke.
BTS rapline:
- UGH
- ddaeng
- outro: her
- outro: tear
- Cypher 1-4
- intro: persona
- interlude: shadow
- outro: ego
BTS songs I feel like you guys would like:
- dis-ease
- home
- come back home
- mic drop
- no more dream (this was their debut song)
all great recommendations!
Great recommendations
Yeeeppp
G DRAGON THE KING ,
Hehe....it's time you get to the mighty CYPHERS😱
the CYPHERS portray how all the three rappers have extremely different flows and the Wordplay is amazing 😍
Definitely. They need to keep in mind that they start nearly 10 years ago so starts older school to newer school.
Thanks, guys. I really enjoy your reactions and your BTS journey. This song actually has an awesome music video. Maybe you can watch it on your own time. For your next reaction, I'd definitely recommend "Daechwita". Please react to the official MV, it's incredibly cinematic.
Their three fully-English songs (Butter - Dynamite - Permission to Dance) were released during the pandemic and were purposefully upbeat summer songs to bring joy to their fans during the hard times. These were written by Western songwriters (with RM contributing to the rap parts in "Butter").
They also released a Korean album "Be" during the pandemic and it's a completely different vibe from the three English singles. The album takes you on a journey of emotions that we all had during the time -- depression, loneliness and separation, being trapped in our homes, being pressured to productive with all the free time we had -- but also hope that things would get better. As with everything that BTS does, they manage to balance a sense of realism and a feeling of hope. They performed some songs from this album in a series of *MTV Unplugged videos* (good subtitles available). You might want to check them out.
==========
"Arson" is from J-hope's recently released album *Jack in the Box* and the other single from it is "More". The entire album is amazing. It tells a story from beginning to end. It's only 22 minutes, but it has 10 songs and he manages to pack a lot into it. I hope you'll consider doing an album reaction. You can use a subbed visualizer video of the entire album from "Enjoy BTS More" or lyric videos of individual songs from "af taehyung".
J-hope was an underground dancer who danced to old-school hip-hop, before he joined BTS. I think he said the songs in this album reflect the kind of music he danced to back then.

Wow!! Nice 💜
Love you comment!💜
FYI: you could’ve watched the MV with the CC on, because their official MVs have english lyrics.
You definitely should have done the Arson MV. Its fire 🔥 literally lol
All jhope's solo stuff is hip hop, most of the rappers solo stuff is rap centric
Jhopes lollapalooza performance was Amazing. Even though its long (over an hour) it shows his talent super well, it has songs from his new album and old one.
J-Hope raps like a dancer/breaker. He makes songs that I feel like he’d genuinely wanna freestyle to and wants others to dance to as well, but I may just be saying that knowing his background. Either way, this man has musicality that you only get from passion, not training.
You should have watched the MV of this song you definitely would enjoyed it, I recommend you watching "Change" by RM and Wale it's in English you were asking for and it's one of my favorites by RM.
Can’t wait for you to react on jhope’s lolapaloza performance. It was fire!
Oh noooooo u didn't watch the music video....it was so hard
It's time for you to hop on the Cyphers and honestly "Hip hop phile" would be a great song for you to react since it shows their knowledge of hip hop
RM has a new song out that he featured in! it came out two days ago! you should check it out. its called SEXY NUKIM by Balming Tigers
btw Nukim means “feeling”
List in order of what I think you’ll enjoy:
- Daechwita (Agust D or Suga)
- Ddaeng (also check the live at Enjoy BTS More)
- Ugh
- Baepsae
- cyphers!
- joke by RM
- Give it to me by Agust d
Also Agust D by Agust D.
You should watch the live presence at lollapalooza, j-hope as an artist has one of the best stage presence ever
Also, "hobi" (not hopie) is an affective nickname used by himself, his fans and his co-members ( i think I've seen the members call him hobi of r even hoba more than anything else, they are all very close and lived together for 12 to years so it makes sense). Hobi fits his real bubbly personality a lot, which gives a big contrast between him and his music. The lollapalooza performance really shows how badass he is on stage. An absolutely insane performer, probably one of the best performers to ever exist, especially for a rapper.
you guys should react to their cyphers. you will be impressed for sure! The live performance is AMAZING.
Yes! Then eventually the live cypher medley…that energy is 🔥🔥
Up for the Cyphers 💜
“More “ is even more boombap / rock , his whole album Jack in the Box is dope
Glad you like BTS. These are a few rapline solo songs recommendations.
J Hope - ‘More’ mv
Agust D(Suga) - ‘Daechwita’ mv
Rm - ‘Joke’ mv
Also some b sides
J Hope - Hansang live performance @ lollapalooza, Pandora’s box and Equal Sign @ lollapalooza as well.
Suga - ‘First love’ lyric video, ‘Moonlight’ lyric video
RM - Persona mv, ‘Reflection’ live,
Forever Rain lyric video or
mv.
Yess what a great way to get into J-hope’s music! Love what you said about this sounding old school because all the members of rap line are huge fans of old school hiphop. They are very much inspired by rappers such as Eminem, J-Cole, Nas, old Kanye etc.. They talk about this is in their song Hip Hop Lover. As you know, Suga and RM were both well known underground rappers before becoming members of BTS.
If you want to be really shocked I suggest checking out AgustD’s song The Last (AgustD is Suga’s name when he does solo stuff - his name flipped backwards + DT for Daegu Town, the city he was born in) and RM’s song Joke.
Happy you were pleased sir🙏
@@12ManyReactions lmaooo yall are funny i guess i deserved that😂 no but fr i loved this reaction. also, i just saw i forgot to put the links for my suggestions so here they are. the last - ua-cam.com/video/gyv6tVNTEqk/v-deo.html, joke - ua-cam.com/video/OxMrBNBWksM/v-deo.html
also sorry for the spam😅 i was maybe a little too much but i hope you know it doesn’t come from any bad intentions. sometimes ppl on the the internet are just overdoing it lol. lots of love💜
We gonna get to em!
And Daechwita by AgustD (Suga) music video. It has subs and the visuals really adds to the sonic experience
@@aanorrac3398 yes!!
I recommend jhope performance at Lollapalooza!! especially for "Hansang"
I’m really impressed and proud how he performed this well live
You're gotta watch he perform this live tho at loolapalooza
As far as Jhope goes, he burned the stage at Lollapalooza, showed the world that he is a SUPERSTAR. it's a great show, beginning to end, but if you just want to check it out a sample, the Baseline / Cypher1 / Hangsang segment is a must-see. Enjoy BTS More has English subtitles including banter in between songs and the translation is supposed to be CORRECT as opposed to color coded lyrics
I really want you guys to react to his whole Lollapalooza stage after listening to his mixtape Hope World and album Jack In The Box......I still not over that performance..the artist and perfomer he is on stage is mind blowing
Most of their new releases have English subtitles so you can watch the MV and lyrics at the same time.
Y’all should react to them live!!
I remember when I first listened to Arson I was blasting it and the girl next to me could hear it through my headphones and she asked if I was listening to Cypress Hill, so I definitely think it’s giving vintage hip hop vibes
Yes, Arson is amazing! It’s the last song off his new Jack in the box album, and the song is basically about the fire of his passion/career/“thoughtless ambition”. He was the one who lit the flame, but it’s gotten out of control and is burning him as well, and now that he burned down everything for the enormous heights of his (and his members’) popularity, he has to ask himself “do I put out the fire, or burn even brighter?” That’s what I take from the meaning.
J-hope was a pretty famous street dancer for years before BTS - he grew up dancing to hiphop so he’s really influenced by that type of music and is super well versed in the genre. Thanks for this :)
I recommend you to listen jhope solo album Jack in the box, it contains 10 tracks, including the lead single, "More", and the follow-up single, "Arson" (you’ve just listened). Primarily old-school hip hop record, the album features a blend of genres, including pop, grunge, and R&B. He performed at lollapalooza & it was amaziiiing!!
And i recommend you check out the young hiphop bts from their first album, no more dream, the rapline song (ddaeng, ugh, cypher 1-4 & outro:tear)
Thanks guys. J-hope just did a whole set at Lolapallooza and he performed this live. It was epic, his whole set was epic. I hope you can put it in the queue. 💜
"Outro tear" live at wembly. You'll love the rapline in this.
AgustD's Daechwita will blow your mind. The mv is the best I've ever seen. (Agust D is Suga's name when he does solo work.)
The MV makes this song even harder. J Hope is a showman through and through....even when he's not bringing his top notch dancing skills. Thank you for appreciating Hobi. He's proving to be one of the most visible and prolific soloists from the group and I'm so proud of him. I can only imagine how brave he would have to be to go off on his own after growing up with and performing for 10 years in a group, debuting a new album in America where he isn't proficient in the language, and where Kpop is still treated like a joke, and at a festival like Lollapalooza, headlining as a replacement for Doja Cat, which already caused hate towards him even before performing.
But after his performance it was nothing but glowing reviews and no one could say anything bad even if they wanted to, because one thing you may have already learned about BTS is they, and everything associated with them, is quality. Even J Hope said he exhausted himself rehearsing so that he wouldn't bring shame to the group as the first one out on their solo era. First impressions and all that. Mega pressure, I can only imagine.
If you like Boom Bap, you'll love Dis-ease, which J Hope helped produce/create.
Not Sure if You're familiar with Carl Jung's Theory of Personality, but BTS did a whole album trilogy called Map of the Soul based on it. Rapline did an Intro, Interlude, and Outro that all have MVs with subtitles if you wanna check them out.
Intro: Persona is RM/Namjoon - ua-cam.com/video/M9Uy0opVF3s/v-deo.html
Interlude: Shadow is Suga/Yoongi - ua-cam.com/video/PV1gCvzpSy0/v-deo.html
Outro: Ego is J-Hope/Hoseok/Hobi - ua-cam.com/video/LmApDbvNCXg/v-deo.html
RM and Wale, Change, its all in english ua-cam.com/video/9rAyprZdo7o/v-deo.html
If you guys want to check out a R&B style vocal line only live performance House of Cards - ua-cam.com/video/YBKKxw0Vw9s/v-deo.html
And you might enjoy Airplane part 2 with its Latin vibes for a full group song/change of pace - this one is in Japanese not Korean ua-cam.com/video/CxnJf0tWu48/v-deo.html and this is a live Korean performance ua-cam.com/video/CoLUXSooPfY/v-deo.html
BTS has a HUGE discography, welcome to the rabbit hole
Please watch j-hope's Lollapalooza performance. He was amazing and I'm sure right up your alley. He was a headliner, so onstage for over an hour. You'll not be sorry. It's probably too long for a reaction video, unless you break it into parts. But, I'm certain you'll like seeing it just for his amazing talent performing for over 100k audience!
Daechwita by Agust D (Suga) is awesome. The music video is a must, not just the lyric video. You can turn closed captions on any of their videos to get the lyrics. The link to Daechwita is ua-cam.com/video/qGjAWJ2zWWI/v-deo.html.
Mic Drop music video will blow your mind! Also, ON Kinetic Manifesto Film. And btw, dude's name is J-Hope, pronounced just like, "Hope you have a nice day".
J-hope is aaaaaaall about old-school hiphop.
I love the reaction and I really appreciate u taking the time to check him out
still wanna point out sth real quick - ppl are saying j-hope only learned rap after joining the team as a dancer well yes it is true but HE WAS A STREET DANCER from a very young age! he is NO stranger to hip-hop at all. If I may say: Hip-hop is actually in his blood. That's why I think he is the closest to hip-hop he basically grew up with hip-hop it is engraved in him. He has it two ways from dancing and rapping. That is why hip hop comes naturally with him.
You know how hip-hop is all about making your own style but keeping it hip-hop? THAT IS EXACTLY J-HOPE.
This man's rap is just TASTY. you said the other day j-hope is more of a melodic rapper well I don't see how this can be considered an underestimation at all! Not exactly melodic in 'today's terms' but his style is all about flow and rhythm. It is so addictive and he can tolerate his voice to fit EVERY song. So instead of melodic I would go with dynamic.
You can also describe his style as 'creative' he experiments a lot and is everywhere with his flow. He's unpredictable and that is my favorite thing about him. I've been a fan for 6/7 ys now yet I have no idea how J-hope is gonna sound in the next song be it a solo or a group song. like you never know what you're going to get from him! He can also put so much feeling into his voice which is very captivating and impressive.
In short, he brings life to songs and so many colors. His verses are almost always the highlight for me.
j-hope my man 😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥
I'm really glad you're giving J-Hope a shot! I love all the guys in the rapline but J-Hope is my bias. RM and Suga definitely are hardcore underground rappers and while J-Hope had to learn /develop rapping while a trainee, I think it's important to recognize and appreciate that his rapping style is different from the others(all of their styles are) I think he brings something different BECAUSE he was, in fact, a dancer first . There is a lyrical and melodic way to his music that really is because this man understands dance and rhythm.
ALSO, thank you for the Flatbush Zombies reference...because that's exactly what I thought when I first heard this song but no one knew what I was talking about lol I can def tell you guys have a deep appreciate for hip hop which honestly J-Hope and the rap line all do as well. So excited for your journey! and like others have suggested, THE CYYYPHHERS , DDAENG, UGH! ...all musts ( but please try to watch the explanation videos in addition to lyric/live performance videos for these because their Korean lyrics are really important in understanding the songs as a whole)
There’s an mv for this song. J-Hope solo was a headliner at the recent Lallapalooza in Chicago. It was awesome. It ‘d be great if you reacted to some of that, especially Baseline, Cypher Pt. 1 (Hangsang)
J hope Mi hermoso Hobi super Talento 🔥🔥
the cyphers and hiphop phile are a must!!!! you really get to know each rapper's unique tone
The official music videos have English subtitles. Also - BTS sneaks up on you and we’re all ages from all over! I found them a few years ago in my mid-40s. I was a fan of indie/alternative up to that point.
J-Hope is an amazing artist, his album "Jack in the box" is 🔥. It would be nice if you react to his album. Thanks for the video. 😊
I recommend you to see his live performance at Lolla. His stage presence, energy, and the live bands were insane
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THAT ONE
The music video is awesome and most of the parts is a single take. You'll love it. And cyphers too.
Bts Room Live 2021! It’s a great mix of all their genres and you can see whose singing what live!
BTS' early albums were hip-hop heavy. Rap line songs - UGH! & Ddaeng (DKDK explanation suggested), Cyphers 1-4, Outro:Tear (live performance at Wembly Stadium suggested). They are even better live. You should also check out their MMA & MAMA awards show performances, especially 2019 MMA. No one does awards show performances like BTS.
ahh thank you so much for reacting to this! and wow good job with choosing the song blindly lol you really picked a great one. good hunch😊
here’s a tip though: please do not use color coded videos from lemorning or jaeguchi for your reactions. their translations are terrible and inaccurate, and don’t even make sense most of the time. in general, korean is very hard to be translated into english but this channel does a fairly good job of translating bts’ lyrics m.ua-cam.com/users/BBTS9717.
if you decide to react to cyphers please use the videos from this channel m.ua-cam.com/channels/r_h1AKhI17kNyt0NcFx4AQ.html , all other lyrics videos are quite bad.
you guys have a great taste so far, i’m really looking forward to more reactions💜
Starting to recognize some regulars thanks for the support🤗
@@12ManyReactions 🥰🥰
so true lyrics video on youtube are translated badly. there is official website called 'doolset bangtan' which has all bts songs lyrics translation with all hidden meaning. i still think reading lyrics from website is more usefull than watching these videos.
Love all BTS stuff ~old, new, & individual work. 💜
honestly, people think we became BTS fans cause they're a 'boyband' or because of how they look or whatever but if you actually stop and listen, they genuinely make good music! Sadly its cause the bloody radios only ever play their pop stuff that its what they've come to be known by. Its simply not true.. while many ARMYs gave bts a chance cause of their pop numbers, they stayed for the b-sides and lyrics.
JHope is the ultimate performer. Saw him headline Lollapalooza - unreal!! Arson actually has an official music video with subtitles, which is way better than lyric videos. Also if you could pair song lyric reactions with live performance videos you will have a deeper understanding of the overall mega talent of this group. Enjoy the journey.
Thank you for reacting to Arson by JHope. The whole album of Jack In the Box is amazing. You should also checkout BTS official MVs and live performances. They are always dope. Also more of BTS please. I was waiting for you to drop next BTS' reaction video 👀💜
So excited for you guys to dive into more BTS I’ve been a music junkie and a boy band fan specifically for many many years now since the late 80s and when I discovered BTS I had never seen anyone do it like they do they are truly icons top-tier artist I’m also excited for you to dive into more of their behind the scenes videos so that you can see more of their personalities and how down to earth and humble they truly are it’s gonna be a fun ride and I’ll be watching!
Great reactions! Definitely the cyphers 1 through 4 and a track called Daeng to start. Cheers!
You will live for jhope if you ever watched his 2022 lollapalooza performance!!!
JHOOOOOOOOOOOOPE #JackInTheBox is a masterpiece album
Love this one, so cool, MV is awesome. The song called More is another awesome one of J-Hope's too among many others. 😎💜👌
Oh man, you gotta see his Lollapalooza concert live! 🔥🔥Jhope headlined the concert this year!
I love you're reaction,can't wait for next.
plss react to jhope performing at lola 2022
If there's a MV of the song I suggest to watch the MV with subtitles, their MV's are always so fire🙌🏼
you really should react to jhope in lolapaloza!!!!! and,we love tall videos so it's gonna be great!
BTS is all about Breaking The Stereotype (hehe)
Butter and dynamite where designed to feel like a summer pop song. So you got the feel right on those songs
This song live is even better. You'll come to find that BTS, in any combination, sounds amazing in the studio, but live is on a whole other level. Also, the 2021 Festa Room Live is a great one to see little snippets of their diversity. (Festa is the celebration they do for their anniversary every June, where they release a bunch of extra stuff for ARMY, and this live was one of them that year). They did a medley of tracks from their Debut Album in 2013 to 2021. There's a whole array of genres there, and it's a live vocal performance.
Love this! Surely 'Ugh!' next 😊
Just found this video and loved it, FYI in the album j-hope just dropped (jack in the box) he samples 'shimmy shimmy ya' by ol dirty bastard (wu tang) in his song 'what if' bc he's a dancer and he love dancing to wu tang
I would really like to recommend you guys to react to their Music videos obviously with captions on coz their music videos are insane, live performances are a must as well 😉💜
Bts did all the genre. Hiphop, ballad, rock, pop...they are talented people 💜
Hansang is great song from jhope too his 1 hour in lollapalooza was insane he performed in front of 100k
All of j-hope solo work is hip hop ..his music is literally an art, Jack in the box album (which is arson from it) is incredible
Glad you guys are enjoying j-hope and the rest of bts's music
guys guys jhope is an amazing artist and his mixtape + debut album is WORTH checking out. especially when headlined Lollapalooza 🙏🏾🔥 mindblowing
I Highly recommended Jhope Lollapalooza stage , it was insane 👍
Oh I’m definitely seconding the suggestions for Hip Hop Phile! I feel like it’ll be perfect for you to get a grasp of just how well these guys treasure hip hop :]
You can't do BTS anything without visuals! Always go for a live whenever possible or the official MV, seeing Hobi on this is like a punch in the throat 😂 I bet you'd like More as well as Arson.
You freaking need to do Joke by RM and Shadow by Suga. For the Cyphers, 2 is my favorite personally but all 4 are awesome. An army favorite is Outro Tear, we found out a year after the fact that Suga had written that when they had considered disbanding, all 7 members cried when he played it for them, it's another punch in the throat, incredible song. The first verse is tear like crying from RM, second is tear like ripping from Suga and last is fear from J-Hope 💜
ua-cam.com/video/UDuaJGYe8EQ/v-deo.html
I highly recommend MORE by jhope!!
Back in 2014 BTS went to America ( American Hustle life ) and they were submersed into intense training with Coolio, Tony Jones and Warren G where they toured the streets learning everything hip hop n rap and even wrote their own lyrics to Regulate. The series is controversial but they embraced it and learned respectfully . These guys definitely have roots to their endless talent. Check out their endless list of collaborations. RM alone has worked with Wale,, Warren G,, Krizz Kaliko, Fall out Boy and Lil Nas who Im sure you’ll recognise. . You’re about to fall into the endless rabbit hole of talent. . Enjoy being amazed . . It’s constant with these guys 😋🔥💜
GREAT REACTION. Appreciate your open-mindedness. BTS has a discography of approximately 300 songs covering various genres. Can't wait to continue this journey with you. OT7 💜🇳🇦
It is good that you have overcome the barrier of prejudice and have an open mind to listen to BTS, they are great rappers, the 3 rappers with very different styles, thanks for the video, stay healthy and happy 💜💜💜💜
He was a frontliner last LOLLAPALOOZA in Chicago and performed this and a lot of his songs in front of 100k attendees and 14M online viewers. This man is insane. Actually everybody in BTS is amazingly talented. They are seriously worth it. React to their MV, Dance Choreos/Practices and Live Performances. Lyric videos on the side if you want to delve into their lyricism. They are great lyricists and one of the reason why they are so loved is because of the messages they want to share through their song. A lot of ARMYs would take the time to translate their korean songs to english and provide explanations for the wordplay or korean references. Doolset is a great go to when going through their song lyrics.
There is a song written by J-Hope from their BE album that shows off his talent, and the group as a whole - called Dis-Ease.
and here's me waiting for the BTS Festa Room live hekhek.. Yeheeey Thank you for this video
Cyphers! Cyphers Cyphers!
I agree with Room live suggestion, and there's a song in there you'll like, and the dkdktv Ugh! Explained by a Korean is MUST WATCH if you want to get a sense of their genius wordplay. Korean provides cultural context necessary to understand by BTS is known for their deep lyricism
2:02 you're correct j-hope usually goes for a more old school kinda sound with his music
have you heard outro tear yet? the live performance of it is a A MUST !
first song in my play list for J Hope is More.
Arson is lead single from Jhope album "Jack in the box" it is quite short album under 30 min. And it is very much woth old school vibes. There is even track What If that samples Shimmy Shimmy ya by Ol' Dirty Bastard
