Let it sink in that on top of being intrinsically involved in writing and producing the music these boys also have to master all the performance aspects of the music they write (singing and dancing a plethora of genres and styles, and rapping on top of the staging of it all)+
The amount of music videos they have to shoot. And they are doing all this while touring and giving interviews left and right and trying to cater to the music industries whims while still not getting that recognition. All the while filming variety shows and still finding the+
Time to further their education. Like. Do you realize that these boys managed to get their college degrees and Jin even went for his masters. And other members are still trying to get this sh*t done. The more I think about it the more pissed off I become+
The people that are supposedly industry approved are not even half as proficient and hardworking as these boys and they don't even put out half of the content that they do in terms of music and I often get disappointed when their sh*t comes out but you wanna insult the people+
Who are ultimately the epitome of well-rounded, wholesome and talented because of what?! Like name an artist in today's entertainment industry who's performing on the level that these boys are and who are also as involved in their craft and as prolific as BTS+
And I'm not talking about the half ass cute choreos they thrown in once in a while. Or traipsing around on stage with a bunch of back up dancers. These boys are expert performers and the showmanship is top tier and on top of that they be in the actual studio and actually are+
Strong writers and phenomenal composers and producers especially by today's standards. The whole dance break part for ON was taken from a beat yoongi created. The rapline and their albums are a testament to how good they are at making music and if you listen to songs that +
The vocal line write and composed "for fun" or just on a whim you can tell they are absolutely brilliant as well. And don't even get me started on the lyrics writing and composition skills of all 7 of these men who always manage to capture to theme of each song and album +
And grab your heartstrings. And the vocal execution of both the rapline and vocal line in every song they put out has continued to grow and has reached a maturity that most people don't achieve until way later in their careers. I am constantly in awe of their work +
But then you have "industry insiders" who are obviously ignorant and biased dismissing this level of artistry and this perfect example of hard work and passion and authenticity because of whatever f*ckery?! I am flabbergasted at the audacity of these people to call themselves +
Professionals. Cuz real professionals know what's up and have a trained ear and a trained eye to distinguish quality and know how hard it is to accomplish these feats. Real professionals understand the amount of work and hands needed to put out the impeccably polished and well +
Written and thought out pieces of art that these boys pass off as music. Real professionals would appreciate the insistence of hybe and the boys in crediting every person who helped them achieve their vision and would not disparage and demean them for giving credit where due+
So I have no respect for these so called professionals and insiders. And I have no intention of letting these jealous, obnoxiously hypercritcal, racist fogeys make people believe that these boys are anything but true artists. Some of the truest that I've witnessed in this entire+
Generation. And it hurts so bad that idiots like them have the boys questioning themselves and their artistry but im thankful that instead of letting it stump them @BTS_twt are mature and strong enough to let it fuel their growth and betterment because it means that we get even+
Better music and more amazing work which means we will only go higher from there which is insane! Because they are already at the top right now and their music has been phenomenal so far imo so I know we are about to witness even more insanity and that makes me so happy. I will+
Be right here to support and you better believe I'm gonna be shouting from the rooftops and singing their praises with every little credit they get in music no matter how minimal. Cuz I feel like we been too quiet about how involved these boys are we need to be louder +
Cuz haters are getting too bold! Just like we have introduction videos to the boys and their talents I feel like we need videos dedicated to the boys and their participation in their music and entire breakdowns of the genius behind their writing and how cohesive and+
Well thought out and intrinsic the songs are. I mean an entire flipping series on the flow of each album and the involvement of each member. Especially in terms of writing because f*ckers be bold out here. I need to find the time but I am not above compiling the information and +
Making the analysis myself. I just need a content creator to help me put it in video format cuz a b*tch is tired and we need everyone in this fandom to know this information and for it to be available in an efficient format so we can conveniently drop the links when idiots +
Decide to run their traps about how dumb their music is or how uninvolved they are. We cannot let these assumptions go without responding to them but we're not about to provide free clout so imo this is a good compromise. Making videos about the actual music's creation #ARMYRANT
The absurdity of it all! Its like they expect these boys to make the instruments themselves and engineer the studio equipments and sew the clothes they wear as well as build the sets and the stages themselves at this point! It's ridiculous!

It came to my attention that some word choices here are bad and I'd like to clarify it. The point of this thread was not to tell people how to become ARMY or to gatekeep BTS in any way. The point was to put emphasis on ARMY culture and point out the things that I learned over +
The years as an ARMY. Every community has their standards and their rules even unspoken. And I believe it's common sense for someone to learn about something before they take on an epithet. Anyone can call themselves ARMY but it is true that recently a lot of people have been +
Disregarding ARMY culture and etiquette and it left a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths who are a part of this community. Some of you have only recently followed me and some of you dont follow me but see me on your TL because retweets. I don't come on here often +
and we don't blindly believe anything anyone says about BTS and the fellow army at face value without examining the facts and circumstances. We mind our own business and we certainly do not age shame because our older fans and our younger fans are a treasure. Perspective +
Is everything in army culture. Ask questions when you don't know or understand something 97% of the time fellow army will respond and explain it to you. No matter where you go please be mindful that our actions reflect our beliefs as a fandom and as people and yes we take it +
Seriously. It's in our name. ADORABLE REPRESENTATIVE MC FOR YOUTH. We lead by example. We say we are different and inclusive and kind so yall better walk the walk. We have plenty of resources to help in that way. Seek them, seek help! #ARMYREALTALK
I read that have plans to recreate the BTS city wide festival with other artists under the label including Ithaca artists. I'm intrigued by the idea because I wanna see how they plan to make up for the fact that not all fanbases are as dedicated and/or as big as ARMY +
Conceptually it's a good idea and they have enough big artists under the label to make it happen but Idk how they will account for the difference in fandom culture and variety. Still I totally wanna see the differences both in scale and execution.
Either way they are trying to branch out and innovate and I applaud it and I also think it's a good move to announce their intention and trademark that way of doing things (although it might not ultimately yield the expected results for other artists depending on execution) cuz+
FYI guys a lot of times when you see bs on the tl. The best response is to act like you ddnt see it. Saves a lot of energy. I only get involved when I've reached my limit. You will also notice that I tend not to follow many music or media related big accts why? Cuz you will end +
Up disappointed one way or another for whatever reason. This is a word to baby army and people in the fandom who are still struggling with managing their time on stan twitter. Only trust BTS and official big hit announcements. Because behind every big acct including mine+
Is a very flawed, fairly selfish, prone to big and small mistake human being and as well as prone to corruption and there are very few people who are self-aware enough to police themselves. And even fewer who are consistently good in the way they act and speak +
Woo Chile that granny performance got a lot of people mad yall. They were only nominated for 1 award that they didn't even win but everyone and their mama has them in their mouth like if this ain't a FLEX and a half. Imo all this talking is good for the boys cuz visibility +
And publicity for free right there. Them pressed potatoes running their mouth and posting stuff online about the boys is gonna make more people curious about them either to hate on them (secret stans) or out of curiosity and then they fall into the rabbit hole+
And this is with the upcoming concerts too! When comeback season rolls around you better believe every eye will be on our boys for all kinds of reasons. We about to break some more records and im here for it! I say let the haters create publicity and dont interact or give clout
For baby army who dont know who Mesopotamia farquad aka the fountain of excrement and her husband are. We are speaking of some producers who helped with bwl and a few songs and decided she and her crew was gonna take all the credit away from the boys and had the audacity to +
Also attack army. We discovered she wan an egotistical, probably racist and honestly ridiculous as a human being and she has been since then blacklisted by us. We all collectively decided that whether or not she was credited on a song we would just ignore her ass and her husband+
Who is also a producer and the same creed as her. When you see names like the white tamale, and any variation of the tamale we are referring to the clout chasing journalist below who decided to dismiss the boys while trying to profit off of them. She wrote a whole book+
