This is part of what drew me to BTS.

They understood that being an idol doesn’t exclude someone from being an artist. By embracing the liminality in their identity, they were able to change everything.

I didn’t know about this interview🥺

“There was a time that I felt conflicted between the titles of Idol and Hip-Hop artist. I wanted to be a true artist and I felt that the word “Idol” could shadow that.” But a fan’s letter changed his mind…”+

@BruceEllerstein @consequence He started it by taking Macklemore off his tour. Where’s the unity in that?

📰 | O produtor e compositor americano Derrick Milano revelou detalhes sobre o processo criativo do #BTS no álbum “Arirang”, destacando principalmente o trabalho de #RM dentro das músicas.

Segundo Milano, RM é extremamente cuidadoso com a construção dos raps, especialmente com os “rap pockets” a fluidez, ritmo e espaço que o rap ocupa dentro da batida. Para ele, isso mostra o quanto RM pensa na musicalidade e na emoção da performance, não apenas nas letras.

Milano contou que tentou criar melodias e estruturas mais fáceis de acompanhar, principalmente porque boa parte do álbum foi gravada em inglês. Mesmo assim, RM nunca deixou de lado sua identidade como rapper.

“RM ama fazer rap. Ele se importa com os espaços e fluidez do rap.”

O produtor também ficou impressionado com o perfeccionismo do BTS. Mesmo quando as gravações já pareciam perfeitas, os integrantes queriam repetir várias vezes para alcançar resultados ainda melhores, principalmente na pronúncia em inglês e na entrega emocional das músicas. Além disso, Milano elogiou a coragem artística do grupo, dizendo que BTS consegue misturar pop, hip-hop, rock, R&B e dance de forma natural, comparando essa liberdade criativa a artistas como Michael Jackson e Prince.

Para ele, BTS representa uma nova visão da música global, sem limites entre idiomas e estilos. No fim, Derrick Milano deixou claro que vê RM não apenas como um rapper técnico, mas como um artista profundamente envolvido na construção emocional e sonora de cada música.

@gldivittorio @riseofducktan I mean isn’t it just an old trick? Replacing well paying career jobs with low skill, low wage jobs supporting AI? The US created all these worker and environmental rights in 20th century, and corps just moved a lot of jobs to where those rights don’t exist. Same with AI

[Howard University @HowardU]

From The Yard to the world stage 🌍🎶

Long before global fandoms and viral choreography, Howard University was already shaping cultural exchange. In 1896, Korean students brought the sounds of “Arirang” to campus… a moment that would echo across history.

Today, that same spirit shows up in K-Pop’s global rise, where Black music, style, and performance continue to influence the sound and movement of a worldwide phenomenon.

This is more than a moment… it’s a reminder that culture travels, connects, and evolves. And at Howard, it always has.

@JRobFreedom @AP I don’t really have any problem believing that this behavior wasn’t considered unusual or damning at the time. Were a bunch of Western men really gonna recognize sexual abuse in their communist adversaries?

@midpushMike @AP Surely, the problem must be the women, and the daunting task of rethinking my entire life isn’t necessary 🙄

@Lyna91Fr We’re really here! WOW!

@LianaLeFey @Lyna91Fr Forgive me someone already pointed this out, but the first circle is similar to the symbol on the famous music producer’s book on creating art. The book was also in a recent pick of Namjoon’s pile of books that he likes to share. https://t.co/yg5bhqa8P9

As an autistic person, this has been a very emotional morning. Misunderstandings and mistreatment of autistic people is so common. So much so called "treatment" of autism just aims at suppressing your struggles, your pain, and pretending. And unsurprisingly there is a lot of 1/

I don’t know why people are freaking out. As a Navy wife, it just sounds like Joon was in the military. He wasn’t treated worse, it’s just not a great environment or situation for anyone.
