Lol BB is so upset and angry and called BTS out and try to humiliate them but then turns right around to stiff Army with buying a set of their seven cover package for about $175. What a joke
Exactly. If you attacking the boys you are attacking the fandom. We do not support negativity toward our boys. If you are fair toward BTS then we will support your magazines and shows. It really should not be so hard to show decency toward a group that you are using to sell your product.
When BTS got no.1 for Dynamite, the reaction was very positive. Things go down when the fans keeps pushing sale pointlessly while stream and radio dropped heavily. And then the exercise happened crazily with Butter and yet, Army just make Butter achievements become an act of manipulation for other criticising. Streaming does provide a picture of GP, it’s the same thing like Melon Uls. I don’t understand why we talk about GP in Kchart and how other TROT artists , Kang Daniel as fandom driven, then BTS are them in the US.
We are not talking about Melon and the way they're charts work, those are two different styles of consumption. I'm not trying to start a fight, but we have seen that streaming does not always equal popularity. Unless you're on the level of Drake or the Weeknd or in this case BTS(before they were heavily filtered almost half their streams) streams don't mean anything. You can have millions of streams but if your fans do not buy your music, your merch, or come to your shows, then how can you say that you're popular. Popularity has always been determined by how many people come to your concert and how many people buy your albums. This has been forgotten because of the big numbers of streaming. However, HOT 100 has always been a sales chart, until they were forced to add in streams it was about sales and radio play. And that's why sales count more than streams and radio play. But that's a whole other argument for another day, let me get back your original point. Compared to Dynamite, Butter was not playlisted heavily, and it still made top ten pop radio so it's radio play was okay. BTS will never get a fair shake where American radio is concerned if you want to be honest about it. So the fans found away to equal the playing field. It's legal, if it wasn't then the sales would not count.
There is no "GP" in America, however, what you have is alot of people forced to listen to the same songs everyday on radio and playlist at work. I have lived here my whole life (48yrs) and when the labels want something to seem popular they will oversaturate the airwaves with that song and person. You may hear it 4-5times an hour. I have even changed the station, and the song I was avoiding was playing. I do not listen to playlist from streaming sites. I make my own playlist of the music I like. When I want to find new music I go to YouTube and watch videos of people that do the music I like or my friends suggest someone new. The hate and negativity that BTS have recieved these last few months is a hit job to try and take away interest from an artist that's popular. The Billboard Magazine article was a hit piece. They can not control them so they will start attacking them. The main thing that pisses them off is they don't make any money off of BTS. If you ask the "GP" who is in the top ten on the HOT 100 they don't have a clue and don't care unless it's someone they like. If this was a all white male group with these fans it would be silence from the industry. And they would be sitting back counting their money.
Wow. B2K is kpop now? Wonder do they know? Question who is IDK?
Yes I got that screen too.
Thanks for the recommendation. I really enjoyed the song so I went and downloaded the album to my Amazon music. I'm more into soloist and BGs however, this song gives me all kinds of nostalgia from growing up in the 80'S. IMO rock music just hit different back then and you didn't care about anything but the music. Rock ON!
The point I will like to make is dreds mean more to AA/black people than being apart of Hip hop culture. Dreds can be spiritual for many of my people. Are there rappers with dreds..yes. I'm not sure why they got them but I don't think it was just so they can be a rapper in hip hop. I suggest people read and understand peoples cultures before using them or trying to talk on them without proper knowledge.
Only through proper education, understanding, and listening can cultures truly mingle without problems.
OP ain't an Army and how was this related to tiktok. I am confused.
I never said OP was Army. What I said was "I was Army."I know he is not because I lurked enough to know all the trolls. OP said they got it from reddit. It is a screenshot from a TikTok account. I can tell you have not been on the crazy and delulu side of Army Tiktok. They say stuff like this and more and mean it.
GIRRRLLLL. See this is why I rarely interact with TikTok Army and I'm Army. I love my fandom but honey no just no. She really said CA. Smh.
I actually heard this discussed in a private discord chat. It wasn't disrepectful in any way. They just felt safe saying it there among friends. They didn't want to be labeled toxic or a non supportive ARMY. I think the biggest thing that got to them was the timing of both comebacks and the late release of the physicals in the US.
Anywho...enjoy the Festa this weekend.
Congrats to TXT. Can some explain to me what the zeros in both columns mean or what the category areas are in the list. I'm not that familiar with Korean music shows. Thanks
I voted 25 and above. Don't be too shocked but I'm 47. 😀
I still have my MOTS ticket. Best decision I have ever made
I kept mine too. So I will not be apart of the bloodbath. Best decision ever.
Did youtube just crash?
I'm holding onto my tickets like my life depends on it. Because it's gonna be a nightmare getting tickets next time. Every so often I check ticketmaster to make sure they're still there.
I do the same thing. I refused to refund my ticket. I was able to score hella good seats at Rosebowl Day 1. So unless they cancel the tour my tickets are good for the new date.
