guys, folks, fellas.
1. yj wants to be perceived as a serious rapper but hybe couldn’t even let him make his own track. he’s 3rd in the credits, so it means he wrote less than 33% of the song. rappers write their own music
my fave polish kpop lore is definitely that one girlie who scammed people for over $10k on the rose concert tickets, disappeared for a few months, tried to rob a convenience store with a fake gun, ended up in jail and now is starring in some tlc-style show about women in jail
2. mixtape in hip hop usually means a noncommercial album or a bunch of not widely promoted songs released between two lps (skz’s predebut mixtape is a good example of this in kpop)
they have a lot to say about him on ig, but when he’s standing in front of them they can’t look him in the eyes and have audacity to perform his songs. i hope they know they would have been working in 7/11 right now if it wasn’t for him
3. hybe makes music mindlessly following popular trends without really understanding what made it popular in the first place. it’s all a soulless money grab. their artists deserve better
4. this song is shit
