Two ROCK Fans REACT to Jung Kook of BTS Seven

    K-pop Boys



    • Prior to the band’s hiatus in 2022, only the rap line (RM, Suga, and J-hope) had released solo work in the form of mixed tapes, as they are the primary song writers in BTS.

    However, all the members have solo songs that they have performed or written/co-written (or both) on BTS’s albums or released for free on platforms like soundcloud.

    Many in the group have also worked on collaborations with other artists and performed solo work as part of OSTs for k-dramas/movies, etc., for example Jimin was just on a collaboration for the most recent fast and the furious soundtrack and Jimin and V had a song on the Eternals Marvel movie soundtrack.

    You will hear some say that Seven is JK’s first officially released single, which it kind of is, but there are several solo songs out there by JK and lots of covers on youtube.

    This month JK released two of his previous old soundcloud songs (Still With You; My You) as singles to streaming services right before the release of Seven to bulk up the numbers of solo songs out there (smart marketing) since there isn’t much of his work on streaming platforms.

    When the band announced their hiatus during FESTA 2022 (debut anniversary annual celebration), they made it clear that ALL the members would be focusing on solo work prior to joining the military and they would be moving from mixed tapes to actual albums.

    (I personally think this was crucial for the label, as stock prices plummeted after the hiatus announcement, but investors gained confidence after the amazing response to each solo release and by the time Jimin released his solo album earlier this year stocks had gone back up even higher than pre hiatus (crisis averted). That is also why all the albums are spaced out the way they are as well. Savvy business strategy. Not many k-pop bands would be able to do it this way because they don’t have fandoms large enough to support solo work to this level, so it would be better if the entire band enlists at the same time and returns at the same time.)

    Since the hiatus, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, and Suga have released their solo albums so far. That means we have JK, V, and Jin left.

    NOTE: Jin did release a farewell fan song, Astronaut, that he wrote with Coldplay prior to joining the military and performed it at a Coldplay concert, but not an album-he will start on his solo work when he returns next June.

      You should repeatedly check places like Walmart for their computers. Sometimes they have good deals. That's how I got both my new computer and mom's for a really good price. Both great computers for less than 1000 dollars. I think mine was 700 and mom's was like 500? I actually thought mom's was a scam. Such a good computer, such a low price. But it wasn't a scam. It's been great for her. As for mine, its only flaw was that it needed more ram. Which I've already fixed. 😊

      Umm yea no.. you guys know I vibe w yall …but what you said about female rappers was quite s3xist and invalid. Darrian, you just did what ARMY does to BLACKPINK oftenly which is calling a woman out for being a woman who express in many ways (including SEGGSUALLY) as opposed to when a GUY does it, of course it’s overlooked and deemed okay. No way you said American female rappers ONLY have “grotesque” songs or raps when that is literally 100% the WHOLE MALE daily society AND all types of industries and ofc MUSIC as well …babe are you sure you ACTIVELY LISTEN to rap because the way you just said that really rubbed me wrong and no shade it does not make an OUNCE of sense. Jungkook is literally singing about seggs but you ignored that and still jumped, skipped, and climbed just to nitpick at Latto’s verse because you feel as though females can’t express our sexuality the same way a man can which proves my earlier point? Come on… don’t be like that, that is not fair at all. Literally, BLACKPINK made a song “Type Girl” and ARMY swore up and down it was “too sexual” and “degrading” just like BP’s song “Ice Cream” … but now the energy switches up AS USUAL because it’s a MALE and JUNGKOOK at that talking about having seggs with a woman who btw in the MV constantly avoids him at every angle and if we really wanna be politically correct, why is it that he is singing to a woman who kept rejecting him at first which depicts a form of HARASSMENT and enabling behavior that opposes the right of consent.. but god forbid we cannot talk about that or wake that up because when a man does these things its accepted and overlooked… THAT comment missed for me and this is not me coming at you guys but I have to defend my own because that was such a hypocritical and sexist comment. BTW, there is NOTHING wrong with women rapping or singing about their sexual gratification because MEN do it all the time and are just fine so please let’s be fair.

      A female rapping about sexual situations is different HOW from all the male rappers talking about sex? Why is Latto saying, "I'll swallow your pride" any more raunchy than JK saying he'll fuck you right every hour, minute, second, seven days a week?

      BTS is now focusing on their Solos, I'm so happy to see them doin things they wanted to do. In such cases the Female actress often gets hate from the fandom But I love the fact tht Armys are loving So Hee so much (if u've watched the MV). The explicit version was kinda surprising bt it was dope n we get to know a new side of JK 💜

      I dont usually leave negative comments but I just need to speak my mind here. I can understand that not everyone is comfortable talking so openly about sensuality but what I can't understand is having a double standard when it comes to explicit content. Why do you think it's cool for Jungkook to talk about f*ckin his partner 7 days a week but it's not ok for Latto to talk about sexual contact with her partner? Women talking about sex isn't "trashy". They can own their sensuality just like a man can. Your close mindedness just cost you a viewer.

      Please react to the Official MV also! This is not the MV, it's the Official Performance Video. BTW, he has 4 well known choreographers as back up dancers. Latto is the current #1 American female rapper. Most of us loved the Latto part. Watch the MV!
      JK achieved an "All Kill" on the top 3 Billboard Charts in the first week.
      #1. Billboard Hot 100
      #1. Billboard Global 200
      #1. Billboard Global 200 (excluding U.S.)

    20. Judy Burgess on

      The alternative words "I'll be loving you right"
      I am in agreement with you that Latto is excess to requirement. In the MV which is the "loving" version she is really slutty, whereas JK is able to say "fucking you" without being offensive in any way. He's a darling.
      I think he had to partner with an US artist to inhibit their counting of downloads on Billboard.

    22. Jill Hollon on

      I agree 100% about your comment on female rappers "these days".
      One of the main reasons I was so drawn to BTS was because they WEREN'T American rappers or singers. Their music is deep, meaningful and with an abundance of SUBSTANCE, all the things missing in American music.
      I'm in my 50s, and I can name on one hand the female rappers that I enjoy listening to and respect their talents and artistry:
      1. Queen Latifah
      2. MC Lyte
      3. Salt N Pepa
      4. Missy Elliot
      Women all from the 80s and 90s

      I have a different opinion than many of the commenters about the double standard issue. I disagree. Also, it isn't fair to start slinging hate comments instead of politely asking questions if you are concerned. If you had asked the reactors why they thought JK's vs latto's lyrics struck a different note i am sure they could have thought about it and replied. I personally prefer the clean version and am not a big fan of the latto verse, but i respect JK and his team's creative decisions as artists, including latto. However, as to the accusition of double standards i do think there is a difference in the level of detail. For example, there is a difference in movies when showing a clean (not showing details) s@x scene vs a similar scene (not showing details) implying oral and different positions. It comes across much more rsunchy. I don't think it is sexist or a double standard, rather the level of detail about the topic. Just my opinion. Be kind and always give the benefit of the doubt by asking questions rather than knee jerk reactions and taking offense right off the bat. The world could use a lot more kindness. One of my favorite comments JK said in his recent suchwita interview was that he is not mean and suga agreed and added that all the members are really kind. They have really worked on turning the other cheek. We can all do the same. Gender wars are worse now than they ever have been and there are so many issues on both sides at this point. But we can still be civil and ask questions before condemning. 14:35
