DATING KIM NAMJOON PT. 1:
⚫️summary; what I think dating Nam-Joon is like based off my initial thoughts on this gorgeous man & just how I believe he’s gonna be in my Fame DR (yes reality shifters are welcome here. gang gang.)
⚠️warnings; fluff, Joonie being a cutie, teef rotting FLUFF with Joonie, Kim Nam-Joon, Nam-Joon, implied smut, some swearing, Nam-Joonah, etc. 18+ so gtfo if you’re not. k thx bye.
-being best friends with the Bangtan boys.
-being like the little sister to them especially because they love to tease you about yours and Joonie’s relationship.
-“Ahh! Y/n and NamJoon! Make him and Appa Y/n! NamJoon, marry her. NamJoon, aren’t you soooo lucky? She’s perfect for you ah? Y/n isn’t he just so handsome? Wow. You scored the big guy.” -Mostly Jin and Hobi but also Jungkook.
-Jungkook loving that you’re younger than him so that makes you the official maknae of the group (because since you got the PIPES, they let you sing vocals on some tracks with them & welp, they made you an honorary Bangtan Member).
-V being like the male version of you so you both consider each other brother and sister.
-being a maknae & all the hyungs being over protective of you especially because they see you as their “little sister”.
-being Jimin’s go to pillow because he loves seeing NamJoon jealous.
-You knowing Korean but not saying anything until you start scaring the boys with full on convos in Korean;
-“야, 우리 오늘 뭐해? (ya, uli oneul mwohae?/hey, what are we doing today?)” -Y/n
-“도대체 한국어를 어떻게 알아요? (dodaeche hangug-eoleul eotteohge al-ayo?/how the hell do you know korean?)” -Hobi
-“마법? 어떻게 생각해 바보. (mabeob? eotteohge saeng-gaghae babo./magic? what do you think fool?)” -Y/n
-the Bangtan boys being so fascinated with how you are so similar to Joonie but also so different from him.
-“V was making fun of me today, he said you make me more confident and some how more clumsy.” -Joonie
-“He’s not wrong. You broke a vase when I said hi last week. Then? You went to a photoshoot and killed it. I’d like to take credit for the last part… Not the vase though.” -Y/n
-Driving everywhere because Joonie CANNOT be trusted with a driver’s license.
-Calling Namjoon; Appa, Joonie, Nam-Joonah, Namu, RM, RapMoni, Daddy Mon, etc.
-Namjoon calling you; his Baby, Flower, Darling, Sweetheart, Y/n/n, Babygirl, Princess, etc.
-S I Z E K I N K !
-D A D D Y K I N K !
-You, speaking fluent Korean, sometimes still mess up & he just says; “you’re doing great baby, keep going.”
-LIKE SIR. UNALIVE ME RIGHT NOW!
-T H I G H K I N K !!!
-you working out with Joonie but not being able to keep up because this fool likes to be FIT & you just wanna be healthy, not a muscle builder.
-Art Museum Dates. 🥺
-featuring in some BTS & RM songs.
-him writing songs/raps about you & then performing them but before he starts he says; “This one is for My Girl, who’s stood by me at my worst, or what I believe is my worst but she helps me understand is just the lower moments in life that she makes brighter by being at my side.”
-being THE BEST of friends with the Bangtan boys & them always mimicking little habits you have.
-painting Joonie’s nails.
-dyeing your hair & using the remainder on Joonie, so you end up matching.
-THE BEST CUDDLES EVER.
-traveling everywhere where there’s good museums or thick luscious forests so you & Joon can get away from the crazy reality you both live.
-due to you having your own music career, you write songs about Joon which the boys mess with you about.
-“Ahhhh, look at this single, 2017?! THIS WAS BEFORE YOU STARTED DATING! NAMJOONAH LISTEN! SHE WAS ALREADY SMITTEN!” -Jin
-“Jin NO! SHUT IT OFF!” -Y/n chasing Jin with a weapon (not really a weapon more like a big add pillow that would knock him on his ass).
-i really, HEAVILY, WHOLEHEARTEDLY believe Joonie would have a kink about seeing you in his clothes so when you’re usually alone you wear biker shorts & a big sweater of his that fits you damn near like a dress & he is just flustered the whole time.
-“You know? I kind of like the feeling of not having to wear anything under here.” -Y/n teasing Namjoon.
-“That’s enough. Go to my room. I’ll be there in 10.” -Joon whispering in Y/n’s ear.
-B E S T S E X E V E R.
-passionate sex where he admired every inch of your body simply because he’s claimed it as his & no one can make him feel what you can & vice versa.
-the boys teasing you about your size;
-“Namjoonah, are you sure you’re being careful with her, she’s tiny. Y/N! COME! Stand right here. Namjoonah you next to her.” -Jin being the hyung he is.
-“Jinhyung please stop. I KNOW she’s tiny. Bu-” -Jin lifts his finger automatically hushing Joon.
-“JIMINIE! Assume your position.” He shouts & Jimin is not between you & Joon.
-“Ahhh yes. Just as I suspected. Jimin is taller. Wow. How have you not broken her Namjoonssi?” -Jin, with a very serious look on his face.
-“Are we done now? I may me tiny… But I will kick your ass…” -Y/N as she glared at the boys.
-they all burst into laughter because of how funny she looks, arms crossed, furrowed eyebrows and all.
-dating Namjoon is just so pure & full of love yet so passionate & dirty at times.
-LIKE WHEN I TELL YOU THIS MAN IS SO FINE. SO SCRUM-DILLY-ICIOUS!! 🥺🔫
-he is so sweet & gentle at times but when he’s had a tough day or us upset about something he will come in through the front door, straight face & all, ready to either tear you apart or devour you, or both.
-buys you a matching bonsai to his so you can both have them be a couple. 🥺
-dies a little when he sees you performing because he is just so fucking proud of you but also when he sees you in the crowd of his shows with the boys. he is so happy to see you standing with the other millions of people he loves with his entire heart. (obvi he loves you most but you know) he claims it makes him feel whole. the way you feel when you see HIM at your shows.
-in conclusion dating Kim Namjoon is literally a motherfucking gift, a blessing, a fucking miracle that you were touched to receive because he is just everything you ever wished for & so much more. it’s an everlasting love that you will tell your kids, grandkids & GREAT grandkids about.
-MORE TO COME! HOPE YOU ENJOYED! 🫶🏼

So! In an unexpected turn of events, Piers and Guzma's usually sweet and caring girlfriend is a death/heavy metal singer and she's PASSIONATE AS HELL ABOUT IT!!! Headcanons for each of them separately, please! :D (and make sure to put that "I am so turned on right now" thing in, too)
I have no idea if this is what you asked for, but here it is. I kept listening to “In this Moment” while writing for inspiration, and I just...this was fun. I wish I could sing death metal; it would be so much fun.
Guzma:
To say he was shocked was an understatement.
His S/O was pretty good at keeping it hidden for a good while, and Guzma knew they’d occasionally sneak out and do something, but he never knew what.
Still, he snuck away a lot as well, so he didn’t want to get into his S/O’s business.
Besides, his S/O was far too sweet for him and wouldn’t do anything that could hurt him, and he didn’t need to worry about them winding up in jail.
He was sure if they ever got in trouble with the law, they’d just break down crying, and Nanu would just let them off with a warning.
Finally, curiosity got the better of him one night when he heard his S/O awake and fumbling in the bathroom.
He sneaks in and sees them putting on some make-up, which oddly enough kind of changed how they looked a bit.
Their Zoroark was also out, putting on something too, and they kind of all just stared at everything.
Guzma curious about all this, “Okay, now I gotta know what the hell you’re doing.”
His S/O isn’t sure how to explain but is like, “Alright, fine, you can come with me tonight.
Guzma didn’t know what to expect, but walking into a concert hall wasn’t one of them.
He also wasn’t expecting the bouncer to just let them, though, without question, all his S/O did was nod back at Guzma, and they let him through.
His S/O told him to stay there, and about thirty minutes later, the lights dimmed.
He saw his S/O on stage, going absolutely mental with hardcore metal.
Full nine yards with screaming vocals and everything.
They looked so amazing on the stage, and he could see the passion in their eyes as they made eye contact.
He hadn’t expected the sweet and innocent S/O of his to be the lead singer in a hardcore metal band, but then again, his S/O was continually surprising him.
After the concert was over, he was dragged into the back room, where he saw his S/O who was back to their more bashful self.
He immediately pins them to the wall, “That was the hottest thing I’ve ever seen you do.”
Needless to say, his S/O had Zoroark throw a sock on their backroom so people wouldn’t disturb them because no way in hell was Guzma going to wait until they got him.
Guzma did have just a little thought of ‘I wonder if they can rap…’
Piers:
Piers knew there was something about the cute and sweet exterior of his S/O form the moment he met them.
They had initially been from the Unova region, and he didn’t know too much about them, but he did know that they were interesting.
This hunch led him to slowly getting to know them and eventually falling for them.
When he finally got around to taking them to Spikemouth, almost immediately, they were recognized by Marnie.
Piers is absolutely shocked to find out this happy-go-lucky bean they happened to have met in the wild area was a hardcore metal singer in Unova who decided to move here for unknown reasons.
They had to explain they had a stalker that got so out of hand that they left the entire region and their band in case he tried to hurt them., and kind of gave up singing so he wouldn’t find them as well.
Piers informs them that if anyone even considered coming into the region with malicious intent towards them, they wouldn’t be making it very far.
Like his S/O seemed to forget he was the second strongest gym leader in the region, and he was close to the other members in the league.
After he gets the photo of what the stalker looks like, he makes it known to everyone that if they see this mane in Galar to end him
His S/O is finally kind of at peace with knowing they were finally safe.
After Piers and his S/O have been going steady for a while, Marnie eventually asks to see a performance.
Of course, his S/O is a bit reluctant but finally agrees because they love Marnie to pieces and who could say no to that face?
Piers is excited and gets his band to help since his S/O’s band members were all in Unova still.
That night they put on the best performance ever.
Piers is kind of starstruck at seeing his S/O on stage, being so passionate as they yelled into a mic.
He also has no idea why the hell he’s so turned on by it.
As soon as the performance is over, Piers whisks his S/O away because he needs to handle some things.
Afterward, it becomes a lot more common for his S/O to put on performances again and even began making new songs alongside Piers.

My Ranking of Fling Posse Songs
All of this is done in good fun and all solely my opinion. My taste of music is not the same as yours or anyone else’s. What hits with me may not be the same and that’s okay! I will not include the battles as they deserve their own list. I will however include Lesson and Once Upon a Time in Shibuya for fun. 
Fling Posse has the best music overall. Surprise, shawty! That’s right, the fucking MTR simp prefers FP music. It just be like that. I just think FP has such a fun energy and it’s high energy and dance-y vibes that are my preference in songs. I’m a sad bean and music gives me joy. I think Fling Posse is my most listened to songs although probably loses only to the battles. I love a lot of voices coming together for a good time, what can I say. Anyway, let’s go!
13) Shibuya Ghost Night - I feel like this is just gonna be a pattern...It wasn’t a bad song but I don’t think of Fling Posse for that style. Honestly now that I am thinking about it, I think I would’ve liked if Fling Posse switched this song with Welcome U. But is still a bop style. Reminds me of old school songs that’d be at my family gatherings. Which is good since that style is really made for booging. I just would not think of doing so with these guys. I’m listening to this as I write...I think MTC would’ve been a good fit too. 
12) Once Upon a Time in Shibuya - Honestly this could’ve been switched with 11 if it really wanted to. It is really disadvantaged by not being on like...the common songs list. But I do understand exclusives and all that but it’s still a shame. I think it’s entertaining for a bit of Gentaro and Dice just going back and forth. But like the champagne problem, the yo’s just wore on me far too fast. 
11) Lesson - Weird to see it so low here considering it’s place on Matenrou’s list. But I hope this shows a testament to how much more I do value Fling Posse’s sound. Ramuda mainly has the floor with this song, which makes sense considering the subject. I just wish it wasn’t such a pain to find. 
10) 3$EVEN - I don’t have much to say on this one. I will say I often mishear what Dice is saying in this one. Like ‘B-E-T’ often just sounds like ‘D-D-D’ to me. It’s not bad, just saying I will usually not hear it as it should be. I think that’s just a part of how Dice emphasizes his words such as such a hard roll of his r’s. 
9) Scenario Liar - All the Gentaro backdrop. The one song I actually looked a lot in the lyrics over. Mainly because I wanted to know what was true and all that. I did initially tie it with Calyx because of the interest in both. However this one got demoted because it is essentially Gentaro talking at us for most of it and just not as fun.
8) Drops - That opening will haunt me for forever. This entire song just makes me think of like a playful jazz walk that I’d almost end off each direction with a kick. Super playful. Thing is while I like the opening for like it’s memery by now, I really wish I would be able to just get to the song part since that is what I mainly listen to. 
7) Black Journey - Oh man I can feel myself getting some serious flack for the placement of this one. It isn’t bad. It’s not down here because it’s bad. I mean I thought Ramuda’s singing in the beginning was very beautiful and melancholic like a swan song. And then they just fire up into their song. It’s great. I just felt stronger for some of their other group songs. 
6) Scramble Gamble - Y’know whenever this song starts off, for some reason I always mix it up with one of the Buster Bros’ songs. I don’t really know the lyrics of this one either but it’s a bop. I do think it’s cute how Fling Posse do reference each other in their own songs such as in this one with ‘not candy that melts and disappears, nor some phantom dream’ and Gentaro and Ramuda do similar in Calyx and Drops respectively. 
5) Jackpot! - I had forgotten this song tbh but in my defense, I binged the series so a lot was a blur. I don’t even remember much of the episode. But some lovely people talking on here made me look it up because I hadn’t known they extended the song for the album. That extension fucking slaps. It has one of my favorite comebacks from Gentaro (the good luck, goodbye) and I love the ‘we’ll kiss the goddess of victory right in front of you.’ Made going back to listen to it all worth it. 
4) Calyx - Pretty sure I already gushed about this one already. But I have to say, Gentaro’s voice is super pretty and would like him to sing more often. I hardly know the lyrics, I’m just here to listen to his voice walking like playful stumble along the grass. It’s a pretty soothing and chill song. 
3) Pink Colored Love - While everyone was hooked by ‘yaa yaa minna genki,’ I was hooked by ‘nee nee onee-san~’ (the phrase will never be the same again, thank you for your service Hayami-san). Eh, it scratched that edgy itch I like. Although it sounds like Ramuda becoming aware of himself and kinda freaking out. I mean rightfully so. But yeah, I just mainly like the sound. 
2) Stella - Can I just say, I know what I said about Gentaro being better as a singer but one song makes me think ‘my god, this man’s flow.’ Like I think this one is my favorite rap of Gentaro’s just based on his sound with it. Everyone just sounds so different from their usual tone to me and I just??? Love it??? Dice going for that seem serious sounding and deeper tone. Ramuda’s darker tone in lyric. Definitely the song that make me think nakama for them.
1) Shibuya Marble Texture ~ PCCS ~ - I can feel the remarks coming on for this one. What the fuck, Kirei? Look, I know what I said and I stand by the whole dance-y thing as my favorite. But I don’t know, it’s just the vibes of this one. It’s a song I just feel good listening to. It’s one to kind of twirl around the kitchen in and one to bop your head to in the car or while out. Like I can feel that colorful world Ramuda talks about with this song. And they just sound so soothing in the chorus.

I NEVER FINISHED MY STORY OMG. ok so i left off at being too proud to tell my friend she was right and kpop fucked hard. the difference between u and me is that i’m too good of a liar. too good. i kept up the “i hate kpop it’s cringe” facade for ALMOST TWO WHOLE YEARS, I SHIT YOU NOT. why? bc my dumb ass, extra ass, dramatic ass self thought “ok if i’m gonna have to deal with the embarrassment of admitting i’m wrong, i better do it in such an extra ass way it’ll knock ur socks off so hard that YOULL be the one embarrassed not me.” the original plan was to learn the entire choreography to bts dope, bc it’s the song that she told me to listen to and inevitably the song that got me into them, but later switched to bts fire bc i saw too many of those “choreo matches w any song” videos, and then her birthday party came up. and here’s the real kicker. her birthday is April Motherfuckin Fools. so it would be So Perfect for me to reveal my kpopism as a birthday present And a april fools prank in one. so i was Set on the Reveal being on april 1st, but the day rolls around and god that choreo is so fucking hard and i am Not a dancer. never have been. so i abandon that and go ykno what… i’ll do it Next Year. BC MY BITCHASS WAS LIKE NO THE MOMENT IS TOO PERFECT TO DO IT ON A NORMAL ASS DAY ITS GONNA BE ON APRIL FOOLS ON HER GODDAMN BIRTHDAY OR NOT AT ALL. a year rolls by, i’ve told most of our friends except her and they’re all in on it, i’d made so many subtle kpop references to her without her realising they were fully intentional and had too many scares where she almost figured me out but i lied my way out of it, and i’d given up on showing off with choreography bc i couldn’t make that shit look good. i’m not a dancer. i am, however, a rapper, and a damn good one, so i inhaled the agust d mixtape and decided i’d just rap the eminem of kpop’s anthem at her face. in korean. and change the lyrics at the end (if u haven’t listened to agust d, the bridge repeats “i’m sorry” a lot) to “i’m sorry i kept this from u for so long” and “i’m sorry i actually ult got7 not bts” (this was like the april after skz debuted ok i was holding onto got7 for dear life knowing full well skz we’re going to convert me smh) and the best part? she never saw it coming. her official present was a cd with a bunch of kpop on it but she thought it was just a personalised mixtape for her so i told her to play the first song out loud and she knew the song Instantly. it has a long intro so she was like “i guess u did listen when i recommended u this song!! i knew you’d like it since u like rap so much!!” and then i started rapping and i shit u not. she started SCREAMING. like the initial reaction was her jaw dropping and then instinctively covering her mouth but when i kept going and she realised i wasn’t fucking around she just fucking screamed like a banshee. at the end during the sorry bit i threw off my jacket to reveal a got7 shirt on the inside and she fell off her chair and started rolling around on the floor. needless to say it was every bit as satisfying as i thought it’d be LMAOOOO afterwards her ass was like “I CANT BELIEVE U HID THIS FROM ME FOR OVER A YEAR” and when i tried to explain my ego couldn’t take the “i told u so” she was like “you know i wouldn’t have made fun of you for it right? i would just be glad you’re not hating on my boys anymore” so basically i’m a big dramatic fool and she was always too good for me.
don’t mind the weird spaces here my ipad is being all fucky wucky w me rn. damn sad to hear ur sideblog experience didn’t go so well, i’d have shown u the cool side of the fandom if i knew 😤😤 leading u thru the cursed halls of kpop stan tumblr like a sketchy tour guide that’s actually 3 small raccoons stacked on top of each other like a trench coat, like “over here we have the fanfic writers that honestly need to publish a book, over here we have the gif makers that are responsible for my entire camera roll, if we take a quick swerve past the death threat anons and the twt fanwar screenshots - mind ur feet bub the 14 year olds were tryna make a grab for ur ankles - ah here’s the holy grail of shitposts, you might be here for hours, to the right we have the weird aussie side of the fandom that projects our childhoods onto chanlix but also all the members as we decide what their life in australia would’ve been like, and down there is a secret trapdoor to the blogs w endless random headcanons that will make you laugh, cry or blush depending on if the author woke up and decided to choose violence today. enjoy your Stay!” but then again i’m not so active on tumblr anymore (ngl you’ve become the highlight of my tumblr experience these days, interaction wise,) so maybe all my Local Hotspots are inactive now. i know a bunch of them are, it’s sad. “i don’t fw stan twitter for the same reason i don’t hang out in meth dens” oop. guess i’m a meth addict. no but i get u i rly do, it’s a hellhole out there, but the fact that things get shared and spread a lot easier than on tumblr and how short most things have to be (therefor keeping up w my adhd attention span without having to resort to the mental torture that is tiktok, with the added bonus of not always needing headphones.) that i just. couldn’t leave if i tried. maybe i should try being active on tumblr again but it’s a dying site in comparison.
“their music doesn’t consistently hit for me as much as skz” i’m sorry we can’t be friends anymore. what. what. you don’t dramama ramama ramama hey? you don’t feel a little jealousyyyyyy, naega anin? you don’t shoot out, shoot out, shoot out, or aremdaeun love killa love killa? you can’t be your hero du du du du du du du du du dududu? u disappoint me. literally like everyone i know who likes skz music likes mx music like it’s a rite of Passage. they’re kindred spirits, monsta x music is like skz’s music’s cool but mildly heterosexual older brother. neither of them know what a bad song is it runs in the family. and both their music runs in my VEINS. whenever i describe my music taste they’re always the first two that come to mind, skz being my number 1 bc they are my best boys but mx bc of the Flavour. pls listen to the entire the code album then get back to me 😤🙌 ok but fr ur so right they are 7 of the finest men i ever seen (yes i say 7 bc i’m including wonho cause he deserved better and i’ll die on my ot7 bullshit.) like don’t get me started on them either LOL i LITERALLY downloaded that one insta video of changkyun working out his back n arm muscles w his tattoo showing bc i needed that shit saved for Science. they could do Anything w me like frfr. yes vixx is the bdsm contract group i’m telling ya they wildin. or at least they were. it’s been years since their last comeback idk what they’re doing anymore tbh. and yeah that makes sense, savouring the hyperfixation i feel it, but also i’m so attached to skz that i never let it die. like i hyperfixate on other things and other groups but i will Always go back to skz cause they’re my homeboys. hell, they’re my home. being a predebut stay i’ve spent more time w skz than most of my actual family members at this point. but that’s just me you do u boo xx just know that if ur anything like me ur never letting go once skz it’s been my longest lasting fixation cause they hit like Nothing Else Do. ik i’ve already said that but i cannot stress it enough. they’re really special. i’m gonna stop here before i get all sappy and emotional bc i really love those boys so fucking much and i don’t drop the L bomb often. SIDE NOTE I WOULD LIKE TO SEE UR LIST OF GROUPS RANKED BY THORSt. i need to judge ur Taste. and omg cat&dog is such a guilty pleasure song bc the lyrics make me cringe so much bc while pet play can be fun they be doing it in more of an “i’m an innocent soft dogboy uwu” kinda way that just Does Not Sit Right with me. it comes back to the objectifying of asians that asians themselves don’t help in industries like these and maybe i’m looking too far into it when rly it is just wholesome n cute or maybe they are into some pet play shit idk idc i will bop to the song regardless but i will not acknowledge the lyrics nope.
YOURE RIGHT THO SKZ’S OPENNESS IS IN FACT, A BIG DEAL, i’ll grab them for u if u want but i found these twt threads of skz supporting the lgbt community and i just felt a special kind of happiness man like sure the delusional part of me likes going “haha they’re gay” bc my brain likes to imagine them as my polycule of mlm boyfriends bc sometimes thats what gives me the serotonin to get me thru the day ok don’t judge but also bc it’s nice knowing that yes i’ll never know them personally, but at least i can support them knowing they’d respect my gender identity and my pronouns, they’d respect who i choose to love, and that’s already more than the general public can say so shit, it is special! it’s special that they don’t treat being cishet like the norm - they constantly remove gender from their songs and speech entirely, they don’t assume all stays are female anymore, we don’t talk abt the babygirls incident cause we got babystays in the end outta that ok, and it’s just. so refreshing and important to me bc i can’t get that anywhere else!! like my semi ults are the boyz and while i love them very much and there’s no way all 11 of them are straight i refuse, i do get just a little bit sad whenever they she/her their fandom by default and call them their girlfriends n shit even tho i do still identify as a girl, i’m also genderfluid/nonbinary/transmasc, and i have a very love/hate relationship w my womanhood and rarely use she/her pronouns, cause it’s like, do you not see me? see us? the ones who aren’t cishet women? i mean i know kevin does bc he congratulated a fan who came out as nb but it’s just not the same as the openness we get w skz. like how do i trust cishets i could be supporting them as a queer person when in reality they’d call me a slur. what would i know, behind the screen? so it’s so good that skz go the extra mile to make it a safe space for everyone. this is already long enough i will reply to the second half of that ask in another message… tomorrow cause it’s 1am and i’m tired gn -felix bi anon
I'mma have to start putting these under a readmore so that i don't absolutely make everything who is still following me for some reason go totally fucking insane 😂
NDJDHWJJAHFNAKBSJSBFBHHDBDNAJD YOU HAVE NO IDEA THE FACES I WAS MAKING READING THIS, I WAS FUCKING CACKLING AND GASPING EVERY OTHER SENTENCE SO HARD THAT I SCARED THE CATS NDJWHSHSB the fact that you went "oh you want me to get into kpop? Give me a hot minute, and I'll give you a whole ass private concert for free" biduehsjdbd biiiiiiiiiiitch you're a fucking ICON, I stg I could NEVER 😂 (and not just because I couldn't find a tune if you gave me a printed set of Google maps directions and that I embody the steriotype that white people can't dance, like my sister kept sensing me tiktoks of the whole "dance like a white girl" trend going lmfao look it's you and eventually I was like "sis please this trend has me feeling like being white is a disability and these mothafuckers are being ableist 😭 also I could NEVER be that on beat so yall ain't even doin it right 😭😭😭😭"). Tbh if I told one of my friends (lol what friends, i got jokes) to get into Skz and they showed up at my bday and performed the entirety of I Got It I would simply shower them in money and go "aight everyone else go home, you are no longer needed, you are being laid off, your position has been eliminated, we're downsizing, the company is moving up and you're moving out, you are not qualified for this role any longer, best of luck with future endeavors" 😊
I think part of the reason I can't deal w Twitter is the exact reason I refuse to leave tumblr, in that I've been on tumblr since 2006 and twt since 2008, and tumblr literally has not changed at all, not even a little, whereas going from the early days of twt where there were no corporate sponsorships or ads and you had to manually copy and paste someone's tweet and @ them to retweet it, to how it is now, like 90% ads and showing me shit from the timelines of people I don't even fuckin follow n whatnot, it's just not enjoyable. Idk how anyone finds anything on twt, it confuses and frustrates me because I am old and have not adapted well to technology changing 😂 But arguably, the skz fanbase doesn't want me on skztwt anyways so like it works for both of us lmfaooo. I am old and cringey, and also still think of twt as stream of consciousness whereas tumblr is your teenage bedroom where you can decorate the walls with anything that interests you. I do really love the nonsensical kpoptwt shitposts tho fhshsbdjjss like it is a very specific flavor of mental instability that I enjoy immensely 😂 OH and also I initially misread part of that and thought you were saying you actually irl do meth and I was like 😳 WHAT DO I SAY TO THAT. HOW DO I HANDLE THIS. Like how do I express like "I wasn't being judgy of people who use substances cause I've been there but I was just being insensitive 😳" And then went back and reread it and was like WHEW, IM JUST AN ILLITERATE FOOL 😂😂😂😂 ejeywhdhrhjwbfbdjshdhdhd I spent like an hour bwign like "IS THE REASON WE GET ALONG BECAUSE THEY'RE ON METH???? WHAT DO I DO WITH THIS INFORMATION??????" hrhehshe I am literally a fuckin idiot it's fine
It's not that I don't fw them, it's more like... Okay so like there is no situation in which I am going to skip a skz song if it comes on shuffle. You will not ever catch me NOT in the mood to listen to Sunshine, if God's Menu comes on we are THROWIN the meager amount of booty meat I got hither and thither, I could be in the happiest mood of my life but if Ex comes on I will stop to SOB. And I'm not like that with most music, so mx just falls into the category of "there is a time and place." Idk why but it just doesn't forcibly grab hold of my heart and ass the way skz always does. I really don't WANT my skz fixation to ever end, but I know that eventually it'll stop giving me dopamine bevause my brain is my worst fucking enemy 🙃 like my arcana fixation is to date the longest running hyperfixation I've ever had, going on almost three years, and I used to not be able to spend every single second of every day thinking about Asra, but now... I just feel nothing when I look at arcana stuff. As you can probz tell by the fact that I hardly post arcana anymore 😂 So I know that eventually all my happiness will end, it always does, I can never stay just as obsessed with something as I was for long. I CANT SHARE THE LIST BECAUSE I DONT *HAVE* TASTE YET 😭 I'm basically just compiling a list of any group someone tells me I should look into, ranked by how strong the kitty purred upon googling pics of them 😂 My mom read my ass to FILTH over txt lmfao she was like "they're not that adorable. Maybe your standard for adorableness has gone down with You Know Who still on hiatus 🤔" bfjwhdhd like MOMMAAAAA THE LIBRARY IS CLOSED 😂 she attacks me any time I even hint at stanning other groups, she is a skz purist and stans skz only, unofficial Momma Stay of All Stays keeping me in check lmfao.
I feel like skz really do follow thru on their promise that they're a safe space for stays, it's nice to see that they hold space for anyone and everyone in their fanbase and do it in a really simple and elegant way, I feel. Like they never make it seem like "okay here are the fans and here are the token weirdos that were only recognizing to make a buck off of them" the way a lot of artists make it feel like 😑 like they don't go out of their way to act like it's some revolutionary act to do the bare minimum of not shitting on certain parts of the fandom, if that makes sense. They feel very "yeah, of course we love all our stays, this is a welcoming space for literally anyone, that's how it should be, that should be normal," instead of like "Hi fans we love you 😊 and special shoutout to you ell gee bee tee folk, make sure to buy my rainbow merch after the show!!!" you know? Like, they're the friends who would never make you feel weird or different for some shit, the friends that take the attention off you if something they know ur sensitive about comes up, instead of weirdly snapping at whoever brought the unfomfy thing up which ruins the mood and makes you feel tiwce as bad, yk? They just give off this vibe that they, and the space they create with their music, is just a genuine and chill place to be and hang out and relax and bond. I feel like they'd be the friend group that is so goofy and sweet and silly and accepting and lovely and always makes you feel loved and excited to be alive 🥺 They are all good noodles 🥺🥺🥺

Moby - “Bodyrock” Crossing All Over! Volume 10 1999 Big Beat
You all know who Moby is. He’s one of the most successful, talented, and eclectic electronic music producers of his generation. He’s the American who made big beat and sample-laden dance tracks achieve popularity in the US at the turn of the century. He’s an electronic music chameleon; he’s techno, he’s downtempo, he’s big beat, he’s ambient, and he’s even punk and alternative rock. He’s had a long, storied career, with plenty of hits and questionable decisions that have resulted in some really high highs and equally really low lows. 
By the time Moby released his fifth album, Play, which ended up becoming considered by many critics to be one of the greatest albums ever recorded in the history of music, he thought it was his final album. Just four years prior, he had released the critically acclaimed Everything Is Wrong, which Spin named its album of the year. He ended up selling a respectable 250,000 copies of the record worldwide, but for the amount of praise it received, and for being on a major label (Elektra), it was a mediocre showing. From jump, that appeared to be Moby’s curse, as it was for most electronic talents: good music, but bad sales; a niche market conquered, but little else beyond that.
Whatever likability Moby had accrued since the UK success of his 1991 techno track, “Go,” which sampled music from Twin Peaks, nearly disintegrated into thin air with the release of his fourth album, 1996′s Animal Rights, which saw him ditching dance music for a blend of alternative rock, hardcore punk, and ambient music. Fans and critics both hated this turn and washed their hands of him almost entirely. It appeared that everyone was just about done with Moby, and that Moby was just about done with himself. Animal Rights turned out to be an album that brought him within an inch of career suicide.
But by 1999, he had decided to go back to dance and electronic music and the result was Play. However, no one seemed to want to give Play any play at all. Moby shopped it to a number of big record labels, but at that point he was regarded as a has-been; a guy who’d run out of good fortune because of his uncompromising strong will and his insufferable need to be an artist. But Richard Branson’s V2 label, which was only three years old at the time, decided to take a chance on it.
From a quote in Rolling Stone:
First show that I did on the tour for Play was in the basement of the Virgin Megastore in Union Square. Literally playing music while people were waiting in line buying CDs. Maybe forty people came.
Most of the critics adored Play and saw it as a work of contemporary creative genius; a real mover-of-the-sticks kind of album. No one, at least no American, had ever made an album quite like it before. It was uptempo, it was downtempo, it had blues samples, it had breakbeats, it was more than danceable, and it was also quite emotional and vulnerable. It was an amalgamation of a lot of different things, and it was a beautiful representative mess of the post-modern, recently-formed digital age, which, at the time, appeared to be bringing the world closer together than it had ever been before, at least from a cultural standpoint. It was music that had a little something for just about everyone. But that was what initially appeared to have ben its fatal flaw, too. See, Play didn’t fit into any pre-defined, carefully crafted, easily marketable categories; It wasn’t rock, it wasn’t pop, it wasn’t hip hop, and it wasn’t R&B. So radio and MTV passed on every song. The album certainly had no home in America, and it didn’t sell all that well in the UK either. 
So Moby decided to sell the album out, literally. He licensed every single song off of Play for commercials, TV, movies, and video games, which were all industries that were more receptive to the varied sounds of the album. People would be exposed to Play through other indirect and less conventional means. And with every track licensed and songs appearing in nearly every medium that had audio, except for radio and MTV, Play, almost a year after its release, started to finally gain some commercial traction.
Here’s an illuminating Moby quote from that same Rolling Stone article:
Almost a year after it came out in 2000 I was opening up for Bush on an MTV Campus Invasion Tour. It was degrading for the most part. Their audience had less than no interest in me. February in 2000, I was in Minnesota, I was depressed and my manager called me to tell me that Play was number one in the UK, and had beat out Santana's Supernatural. I was like, :But the record came out 10 months ago.” That's when I knew, all of a sudden, that things were different. Then it was number one in France, in Australia, in Germany—it just kept piling on. [...] The week Play was released, it sold, worldwide around 6,000 copies. Eleven months after Play was released, it was selling 150,000 copies a week. I was on tour constantly, drunk pretty much the entire time and it was just a blur. And then all of a sudden movie stars started coming to my concerts and I started getting invited to fancy parties and suddenly the journalists who wouldn't return my publicist's calls were talking about doing cover stories. It was a really odd phenomenon.
Play only peaked at #38 on the Billboard 200, but it sold two million copies in the States alone. It was on charts across the world for several fucking years. And it finally brought dance music to the American mainstream.
There were two songs that almost didn’t make it onto Play though: “Porcelain,” which Moby hated, and “Bodyrock,” which Moby’s two managers hated. His managers complained that “Bodyrock” was a total ripoff of Fatboy Slim, which...fair..., and that it was tacky. But Moby wanted to keep it on there. He had sampled a classic hip hop song by Spoonie Gee and the Treacherous Three for it called “Love Rap,” which held sentimental value for him, and is the only vocal sample on the song (”Non-stop y’all, to the beat y’all, the body rock y’all...”). 
At the top of this post, I called Moby an electronic music chameleon, and “Bodyrock” is the song that saw him almost seamlessly morphing into a god of the big beat sound, somehow briefly placing himself among the ranks of The Prodigy, The Chemical Brothers, and of course, the aforementioned Fatboy Slim. And he managed to do it with just one fucking song. For “Bodyrock,” Moby basically took all the things that got those three big beat acts constantly lumped into the same category, as well as all the things that made them stand apart from each other, and then he mortared-and-pestled it all to death, reducing it all into a fine powder that he could re-arrange and re-apply into his own stunning creation.
“Bodyrock” is a song that’s layered wonderfully and fuses sounds from many different instruments and genres to make something that’s intense as hell, especially for a mainstream audience, but still highly enjoyable. It’s a perfect fusion of rock, hip hop, and dance music, all packaged together into one, solidly cranking song. 
Moby starts with the drum-and-vocal sample from Spoonie Gee and The Treacherous Three and then adds two layers of guitars, one with an acidified, throttling, crunchy funkiness, a la Fatboy Slim, that’s inspired by Gang of Four’s 1981 track, “What We All Want,” and one with a thin and whining kind of wah that’s also a bit funky, and which later on becomes an integral part of the chorus. Then Moby infuses the track with some hardness, with heavy drums and bass, as well as hand-claps. Rapper Nikki D, who released an album on Def Jam in 1991, then proceeds to appear out of nowhere for the chorus, pretty clearly trying to sound like MC Lyte’s nearly-forgotten 1996 jam, “Cold Rock a Party”. And along with Ms. D comes the most important piece of the recipe, the bow and ribbon that ties the whole song together, the streaming and high-pitched cinematic strings, which replace the Gang of Four-styled guitar, and are underlaid with a rumbling, motoring, thick bassline that also plays along to the string melody itself. 
Two unique and brief pieces then come later on, one that sounds like a combination of clean and dirty aquatics, with a brief, pleasant keyboard melody that sounds submerged in water, but still near the surface, and a swampy and swishy, mud-in-your-galoshes type of rhythm beneath it. Then, before the song’s final push, the other brief piece appears, which sounds like those frequencies you might hear from a hearing test machine, laced with Nikki D’s vocals, the drum break from Spoonie Gee and The Treacherous Three, and some bounding bass.
To close out the masterpiece, Moby lets the chorus ride, and then adds the “Love Rap” vocal back in. You’d think playing two vocals concurrently would clash and make the song unlistenable at that point, but somehow, they don’t. They happen to work really well, and when played together along with everything else, they yield the most intense and enjoyable part of the song.  
Play ended up having a total of twelve music videos and a quarter of them were for “Bodyrock”. The first two have a similar theme of British guys, all of whom except for one are white, dancing terribly, but also passionately:
youtube
The second one features a car explosion at the end!:
youtube
And the third one, which has a Run-D.M.C. cameo (!), shows Moby donning special sunglasses that allow him to see talented dancers everywhere:
youtube
Even almost a year after Play was released, it appeared that it was going to be Moby’s swan song and the death of his career. But the decision to license changed all of that, and if ever there was some kind of universal music award for “comeback artist of the year,” Moby would have absolutely won that thing. But in the immortal words of LL Cool J, “don’t call it a comeback,” because while the original best hope for Play was to return to the similar sales and critical appeal of Everything Is Wrong, it managed to far exceed that wishful and shortsighted forecast. Moby was comeback artist of the year and damn near MVP also. It was a wild, totally unexpected, and fantastic turn of events for his career and wellbeing. He almost stopped making music, but now he can’t stop making music. He released an album just this year.
I wholeheartedly agree with the critics who list Play as one of the greatest albums ever made. Not only is it fucking tremendous on its own, but It marked a much-needed turning point for Moby’s career, which undoubtedly kept him going, and still keeps him going today. And one of the many amazing songs on that album that makes Play what it is, is that consummate, brief bit of big beat greatness, that banger of a cut that almost didn’t make it onto the album, the one and only “Bodyrock”; a song that still manages to bop as hard as it did when it originally came out 20-plus years ago.

Song of the Week
So . . . all the releases huh? I’m hopefully going to have a lot to talk about.
Honorable Mentions:
So, this is only a sort of recommendation, but if you like some of the chiller, simpler Zico stuff, you might enjoy DNEIRF’s Mischief. If I was in the right mood, I definitely would.
For a ballad duet this week, Phone is a good option. Both vocalists play off of each other well, and the video is sort of adorable for how simple and sweet it is, so there is that too.
It’s trot o’clock, this week featuring an incredible pink suit. Insert Lady Gaga gif for my opinion. Also, it’s trot without as much of the vibrato I’m used to, and the flower suit.
I was minorly shocked to find Chanyeol on a video with under a quarter of a million views from an artist I’ve never heard of. I wish he was less auto tuned, but his verse section in Faded is decent.
And now, the releases. All of the releases.
Following up 100, SuperM dropped Tiger Inside this week, which screams SM pretty constantly from start to finish, with pulls from their current largest groups (who are obviously represented in the group). It has the vocal harmonies that EXO songs love to show off, the rap and dance breaks that fit even when they have a different feel from the rest of the track of NCT, and just a dash of the experimentation that has made SHINee so successful. It doesn’t however combine those ideas as well as Jopping did, and is thus a little bit of a struggle for me. It’s fine, but not great.
Did you know D&E was having a comeback, because I sure as hell didn’t. Bad is a nice combination of throwback and the more mature ideas that Super Junior has dealt in more recently. I like the fun of it, especially for this duo, but it will probably ultimately end up being forgettable, despite the super fun riff in the chorus, and the addicting vocals in that chorus.
For a group that has often been towards the cuter side of the girl group spectrum, I was not expecting something like Obliviate from Lovelyz. It hits beats harder, and notes deeper than they would usually go for. And it still includes the dreamy high notes they’ve had for a while, with a nice contrast to the much darker backing track. It is easily my favorite thing they have done so far, and a solid contender this week.
I make the rules, and the rules say I can give lots of people the win, right? Because for the first time, it’s three songs.
I think we all suspected that a solo from Wonho was going to be a lot. And while Losing You was more of a thank you ballad, Open Mind is an announcement of purpose. It is sexy in all the ways you would expect and more, with some effortless cool, especially in the production. I was mildly worried his softer tone wouldn’t lend itself to anything besides ballads once he was solo, but damn I’m happy to be proven wrong. And all the reactions are frankly a mood. It gets a win for surprising me and being more than I could ever have guessed or expected.
To no one’s surprise, CLC is still great. Helicopter hits hard while being relatively simple. The chorus gives all the vocalists a chance, while the verses highlight the rest of the group. And the bass hits that would feel more comfortable on any number of boy group hype tracks works amazing throughout. The final hook is a beautiful build in the best way, leading into a driving beat that doesn’t stop until the end. It is another strong track in a discography that has popped off in the past couple years. It gets the second win spot.
I like A.C.E. I have liked them for a while now, and known about them since debut (hot pants y’all, hot pants). They also put on the best of the online concert of the year (fight me, actually fight me on this). So I was excited for the comeback, and the teasers only bumped that up, with the beautiful concept work. The song, Favorite Boys (or  도깨비), is a different sound from the group that I didn’t initially feel particularly anything for. On more listens though, I think it does a great job highlighting the group, which has 3 incredible singers and two that can rap and hold their own singing. The dance is appropriately hard, and the composition allows for their talent to be on full display while still being as hype as I would hope from them. And every listen after the first has made me like it more. For that it gets the final win.

Now You See Me: part 28 (3512 words) - rap sex
• • • • • •
You’re a content creator that is wanting to change up your brand a little bit.
Yoongi is a faceless musician. Well, he’s two people at once. He’s Agust D online and while performing, but he’s Min Yoongi in real life.
Who will he be to you?
• • • • • •
PART 27 // PART 28 // PART 29
masterlist
• • • • • •
tags : @dixonsbugaboo @mayumioutloud @minhyukstealer @pocketfullofsuga @pwinny00 @rjsmochii @yoonglemickdoongle @live-2-fangirl @cherryicy123 @vernooope @okaysoplshelpme @thebleuprince @minyoongone @original-internetmonster @princesskimnamjoon @waddlingmyg
• • • • • •
With the best outfit that you were able to conjure up from your closet on a budget, you walked into the bar with alone. Everyone was going to meet you there.
You were easily the easiest person to impress, and although you had already seen Yoongi perform before, you were sure that you were going to be amazed, no matter how much you wanted to avoid him and hide your feelings from the world. After what Jade had told you about their relationship compared to your relationship with him, you knew that you wanted to at least tread lightly in the waters of Min Yoongi.
She basically flat out told you that Yoongi liked you, but other than the kiss in the hallway, you weren’t sure that he even liked you. People could kiss other people without wanting to actually be with them. You’d been played by guys in the past. It happened.
And then there was the fact that you were still unsure about seeing Hoseok again. Your father had made it clear that he wanted you to marry him (I mean, you already knew before but still). You’d barely breached the subject with Hoseok on game night, but you just couldn’t see it. Why would Hobi be in love with you of all people. He deserved someone good, someone positive.
The bar was already dark and foggy, but you couldn’t tell whether it was a fog machine or simply a bunch of smoke from vapes and joints. You thought it was probably the latter. It even smelled a little ripe in there, a mixture of alcohol, sweet JUULs, and MJ. Along with the smell, the air practically felt sticky, the temperature already hot.
The search for your friends was brief. Tae and Hobi were always the loudest, currently making a fool of themselves amongst your newer friends, Jimin and Jungkook. Jade was yet to make an appearance. You distantly wondered if she was keeping Yoongi company until he went on stage.
Speaking of the devil, he was clearly not with the group because this was his performance, but you wouldn’t have minded just getting a glimpse of his surely mask-covered face. You’d very nearly forgotten that he was Agust D here and not your Min Yoongi.
Your Min Yoongi. Even the thought was bordering on problematic. If this night didn’t go as planned or even head in a remotely positive direction, you’d be crushed. The only reason that you’d agreed to go was to clarify and/or solidify what was going on between the two of you. If he didn’t make any sort of move. You were going to. You had to.
Looking around, you were happy that there were more people here than the last time. He’d been rapping here for a few years under his alias, but no one had put two and two together. With the release of “Seesaw”, he’d finally revealed to the online community that he was a musician that not only played Piano and got people to sing on his tracks, but also that he rapped. It had surely increased the crowd for this show. On the way in, there was even a lineup at the door. You were able to just walk in, thankfully, because he’d still put your name on the list. He had told you on multiple occasions that he would never take your money if you came to watch him because just your being there was enough of a reward for him.
The greetings from your friends were almost lost to your ears because you were craning your head to see if Yoongi was possibly walking around, visiting with other people. It was quite obvious to everyone that you were not here to see them. You were definitely here to see the man on your mind.
“Hello, earth to Y/N?” Jimin waved his hand in front of your face when you were staring directly into the drink that you’d picked up from the bartender on the way to the already full table of guys. You were clearly only here for one thing.
As much as you loved them all and enjoyed their company (most of the time), you were not up for any chit chat. Frankly, you were still trying to pull yourself out of your depressive state, and you were also not entirely sure that you were ready to meet Jade yet.
After stalking her profile, you were 100% sure that she was both prettier and a better person overall than you were. You’d never seen someone spread so much love and happiness. The only rival that you could think of would have been Hobi.
“Sorry, Chim. I’m just a little distracted,” you answered, spinning the bottle of alcohol in your hands.
“You’re just nervous about having to talk to Yoon about the kiss, right?” Jungkook piped in from beside you. From the corner of your eye, you saw Hobi look at you and frown. He then quickly looked at Tae, but your brother just shrugged. Hobi was always so protective, just like a brother would’ve been.
“H-how do you even know about that?” You stuttered, tucking a piece of hair behind your ear in embarrassment. Yeah, you kissed Yoongi, but you just assumed that he was not much of a gossip and wouldn’t have told anyone. You were clearly wrong.
“Your guy told us. He also may have revealed that he was nervous about you meeting Jade,” Jimin slyly admitted, putting his arm around your shoulders.
“Because she’s his ex, and he still hangs around with her?” Everyone, including your brother were surprised that you didn’t have a bigger reaction than that one. Your eyes wandered to the stage, only to find it still lifeless and unlit.
With a sigh, you listened as Jungkook continued, “Yeah…how do you know that?”
“Jade and I have been texting a little bit here and there. She initiates the conversations, but I can’t not answer her.”
“Speaking of the devil,” Jimin announced with a huge smile. “Jade is walking this way.”
“Sorry, but who exactly is Jade?” Hobi asked, completely unaware that she was coming up right behind him. You were completely astonished at how pretty she was. You wondered how it was physically possible to be born that way.
“I’m Jade,” she whispered in his ear, causing him to jump and fall off his chair. While he was seated on the ground, she smiled at him and politely took a seat in the chair that he was occupying. Turning to me, she beamed. “You must be Y/N! Yoongi has to me so much about you!”
You couldn’t say the same.
“Hi,” you replied, not being able to take your eyes off her hair. It was literally curled to perfection.
Once Hobi finally got up at the floor, you could see him shifting his eyes from you to her, wondering what exactly was going on.
“I’m Hoseok,” Hobi introduced himself with a bow.
Jade graciously took his greeting and then commented, “Oh, so you’re Hoseok…”
“What is that supposed to mean?” He started, but all of the lights suddenly went out and everyone’s head turned to the stage.
You instantly stood up and walked closer, nursing your drink on an open potion of the floor. A few more people joined the space, filling it quickly. Jimin and Hoseok came and stood on either side of you while the other stayed back and kept the table.
Yoongi slowly walked onto the stage and took the microphone that was waiting nicely in the stand. Absentmindedly, you wondered what Yoongi and Jade had been talking about backstage. You were in such a daze that you completely forgot to ask.
He was wearing a cap and a mask under his chin for hiding his identity. It was a special request to keep the lights down to avoid anyone seeing his face through the shadows. It didn’t matter to you any way that he came. To top it all off, he was sporting ripped jeans and a jacket —typical. Did he even own anything else?
The performance was similar to the last one, except that there were a few new songs. After the first few songs, you again confirmed that the man was meant for music. Agust D’s performance was truly hype. He got the crowd into it and talked about so many difficult things like depression and social anxiety.
You realize then that you are definitely in love with Yoongi. How could you not have been? Maybe you’d even been in love with him for a while, you weren’t too sure. You’d been talking for months, and he was the only person you’d thought about in weeks. He captured your full attention, even when you weren’t with him.
His passion was a large factor of that love as well. When the beat for “Agust D” rolled in, you can’t look away, you’re entranced. The people you’re with all noticed this. It wasn’t long into the song that Yoongi’s eyes found yours. You were surprised that he found you with all the people in there. You were hidden behind a couple really tall guys and their girlfriends, and when he focused in your direction, they were quite excited.
It wasn’t until they realized that he was not looking at them but at you. It was the fastest part of the song, and he just kept looking at you and walking closer to the end of the stage and towards you. The people in front of you parted slightly to give him a better view of you. Your cheeks reddened at the intensity of his rapping. Just thinking about how fast he could move his tongue made you think back to the kiss. You wanted his tongue against yours again.
When you realized that you definitely should not have been thinking about that right now, you brought your hands to your cheeks and covered them with your hands. You felt a pair of hands on your back push you forwards slightly, but you wouldn’t budge. It was Hobi, and you didn’t notice that after he nudged you, he backed away, clearly distancing himself mentally and physically from you.
This moment was yours and Yoongi’s. It felt like there was nobody else in the room, but also felt so intimate that you were sad that there were many people all around.
His gaze never leaves your face for the rest of the performance. It’s his closing song before the second artist came on, so when the song finished, he was breathing hard and clearly sweating. His eyes were still on you as he pulled up his mask, trying to hide his identity from the prying eyes.
The bouncers were very strict on not having flash photography either —they would hunt you down. It was basically an unwritten agreement that when people came, they would just not post videos and keep the performance to them.
“What?” You asked, finally being able to breathe again. You hadn’t noticed, but your breath became uneven and hard when Yoongi was performing for you.
“He totally just had rap sex with you.” Jimin’s voice was even and sure when he looked at you.
What the hell was rap sex?
Yoongi was still staring at you
Rolling his eyes because he could clearly tell that you didn’t know what he was talking about, he continued, “I shouldn’t need to explain this, Y/N…In fact, I’ll just let you figure it out on your own.” You didn’t need to know what Jimin was talking about. All you knew for sure was that just the words sex and Yoongi in the same sentence made you flustered. They were making you flustered and hot.
Yoongi bowed, thanking the crowd one more time before exiting the stage. You weren’t sure what you were going to say to him now, but you knew that you needed to reign in your emotions and get yourself together or else only gibberish would come out of your mouth.
Making your way back to the table, you were still flushed and had to get yourself together. People were sure to comment on your state. Plus, if you wanted to hold your own in front of Yoongi, you couldn’t be looking like you were. So there you were, standing awkwardly around the table, waiting.
It seemed like hours until he made his way to your table. You hadn’t participated in any conversations with your friends, opting simply to nurse another drink and wait for Yoongi. You had no idea what you were going to say to him or how you were even going to react when he finally said a word to you.
He greeted all your friends and Jade before going to stand between you and Jimin.
“Hey,” he said, taking quick sip of your drink. You looked at him like he’d grown two heads. This guy hadn’t spoken to you in ages, and there he was, acting as if you were together, or at least that you had been talking.
Biting your lip, you answered, “I enjoyed your set.”
When the tension between you two was able to be cut with a knife, Jimin nudged you into Yoongi’s arms. Instead of being bashful about it, your brain allowed to to simply put your arms around his waist and embrace the contact.
He didn’t hesitate to hug you back before moving his mask under his chin and whispering, “I’m really happy that you came.” Quickly putting his mask back on, you didn’t realize that you’d be so affected by everything that he said and did.
Yoongi’s breath on your ear tickled and sent shivers through your body. His sweat smelled sweet, and you only want to run your fingers through his damp hair. There were many other people around, so obviously that would have to be saved for another time.
******
Hoseok and Jade were sitting on the other side of the table, observing their two friends, relishing in the unrequited love of it all. They were happy for the two of you, they really were, but taking it from their perspective. It would fucking suck.
“Ugh, I hate love,” Hoseok grumbled, pushing away from the table. Jungkook, Jimin and Tae had left, going to watch the second performer on stage, so it was only the four of them at the table.
Jade looked at him like she’d never seen him before. “Why do you hate love? I hate love.”
“I’ll get us some drinks and we can talk it out.”
When Hoseok made his way back with two bottle of soju in hand, he started, “I’ve been in love with Y/N since the moment I met her. She was 14 and I was 12. It was all too much for me, especially because her brother is my best friend. She’s liked him since she first met with him at the coffee shop. I’m sure of it.”
“Similar story, bro. Agust D and I have been best friends since birth and I’ve always had a crush on him. He’s been thirsting after her since he received her first message. JK and Chim didn’t help because they clearly think she’s hot.”
“I wouldn’t be surprised if they were in love with each other now.”
“Honestly same. Did you see that performance? I’ve seen him perform many times, and that was something else”
“…It really be like that sometimes.” It was a thought that they both shared; a thought that shaped the generation.
******
Neither you nor Yoongi realize what exactly was happening between Jade and Hobi when you asked, “Are you going to let me go at all?”
“I hadn’t planned on it.” But he loosened his grip and simply let his arms drape around your shoulders comfortably. You liked being there. You’d never been this close to him for such a long period of time.
Looking at him, you still couldn’t get Jimin’s comment from earlier out of your mind. So when Yoongi pulled back to walk towards his friends in the crowd, you stopped him by grabbing his arm. The action surprised him, and what you about to do was something that you’d never have done with anyone before you’d met him.
He looked at your concentrated face in question. There were people everywhere, but you didn’t care when you pulled his mask back down under his chin and asked, “Why haven’t you tried to kiss me since the first time? Why did you not talk to me about it? You seemed so sure that you wanted it to happen then, and now I’m just confused if you act-”
Yoongi grabbed your hand and started dragging you away from all the people and into a corner of the bar that you weren’t sure that you’d ever seen before. It was a deserted corner that looked like it was never visited. Actually, when you stopped talking, Yoongi wasted no time in connecting your lips once again. The kiss this time was urgent and hotter than it had been int he hallway of your place.
He tasted sober this time, still vaguely damp from his performance when you took off his cap and placed it lightly on your head. You ran your fingers through his hair like you wanted to earlier, and he took that opportunity to get you good. With a groan that literally turned your insides into mush, his hands wrapped around your waist, pulling you flush to his body.
Yoongi’s skin was soft under yours. With every movement of his lips, you realized that he wouldn’t want to talk about anything, so asking him about that rap was out of the question…for now. Soft movement paired with everything else that was Yoongi —his sweat, his smell, his taste— had you wanting more, needing more. After this, you knew that you’d never be able to be friends with the man. Being friends would simply be too painful. You’d never be able to see him again without wanting a kiss or a touch. It almost scared you how much your desire for him had increased in the days that you hadn’t spoken.
You gently pushed him back until he hit the wall, and absently, you found yourself grinding down onto one of his legs, straddling it. Your kisses became sloppier, open mouthed, and needy with every grinding movement into his leg. Whatever it was that you were doing, it felt good. No matter what it was, you knew that Yoongi was able to make you feel good.
You weren’t even sure that he was fine with what was happening until his hands gripped your waist and aided the movement, crouching lower to give you more access. You could even feel his quad muscles flex between your thighs. He pulled back, looking into your eyes, watching your facial expression as he helped you grind down. It felt better than good because it was infinitely better than touching yourself. Even though you were fully clothed, you’d get off in minutes if he kept it up.
Yoongi’s lower lip was taken between his teeth as he watched you more. His eyes did flicker behind you to see if someone was a coming or watching, but the coast must have been clear because his eyes then travelled down the length of your torso to where you were grinding against him.
Your breathing wasn’t even, trying to focus on the feeling, but you decided that this was neither the time, nor the place that you two should have been doing this. You didn’t want to have to clean yourself up in the bathroom, and you didn’t want Yoongi to have to deal with a boner in the middle of the bar (although you were sure that it was too late).
When he noticed your movements slowing down, his eyes went back to your face. “Let me take you home later,” he whispered, lips brushing yours and hands moving from your hips to feeling down your body and around your butt. He squeezed gently, pulling you closer to him.
The brushing of his lips on yours was enough to drive you crazy. There was no way that you would ever be able to deny this man what he wanted that night. “Mhm. All right.”
“Well, then let’s go join our friends for a little longer. I’ll buy you a drink, and then I’m taking you home. Don’t even think about not finishing what you started,” his tone was clear and low. He was definitely turned on and wanting.
His words excited you. A smile grew on your face, and then you suggested, “How about one dance, too?”
It took him a moment to answer. He didn’t seem like the type to want to dance in a bar, but you knew his answer was solely for you. “Fine.”
Hand in hand, you lead Yoongi away from the dark corner and back into the visible bar, unaware that there had been people that noticed.
• • • • • •
LET’S GET IT, FAM...in case you didn’t get it, they are having sex tonight. But I didn’t write it. I can write the smut if you want me to. I won’t say it’ll be the best, but I would try.
Hope you enjoyed ✊🏻🤓

Imagine BTS: (Hyung Line) - when you two become a thing
A/N: i want to update as much as i can this week because this friday!! i’m going to see bts so i will probably be too busy with that, then I have to go to state literally a day later that i come back so please! be patience with me :D
-star
Yoongi:
Tumblr media
— yoongi finds out about a new artist underground and he finds his muse but the problem is, he’s never seen the face of the man he can’t help but find inspiring.
Being an underground rapper the most important thing was 3 rules.
Keep battling others to show your title.
Keep your reputation high.
Be able to handle the audience.
For years Yoongi worked hard, every night to become one of the best rappers on the scene. Yoongi came and conquered to find his throne.
So when a new rapper starts to raise the ladder at a impression rate. Yoongi had to see the man himself. Yoongi preformed his regular nights calling them “Fire Friday’s”
Yoongi waited at the back of the club, hearing the announcer talk about this new rapper. The crowd was screaming almost deafening but it was the thrill of that crowd that made your heart run quick. The way adrenaline was pouring through your blood as you gave it your all.
You had came out, a rather outfit that didn’t show your face. You wanted them to hear you rather than look at you. You spoke through the words you rapped from your soul not the way your face looked. Yoongi had appreciated this the most. The craft was the most important part of a rapper’s career.
So when he was finished watching your show, you had inspired so many things within himself and since the backstage people knew him so well he could just walk into the backstage.
Yoongi searches through the many acts, trying to find that familiar outfit. Yoongi asked workers and rappers if they had saw you. Not an answer, Yoongi sighed in frustration as he walked to the back door.
The city breeze of a Friday night was relaxing as Yoongi looked at his phone seeing texts from his 6 friends. Yoongi replied telling them he had some business to take care of.
Yoongi walked back in and decided to call it a day as his friends were waiting for him so they can all go home.
Yoongi came back the next week, to the same event. Fire Friday being shown across the stage, Yoongi writing about you about how the greatest artists are unknown till they are found.
Yoongi got off stage as he stayed near the stage to wait till he heard the same voice. The flow was the same. “It’s him.” That’s all Yoongi could process as he waited and listened to the lyrics and the music.
Yoongi saw you get off stage as he stopped you immediately which shocked you at first never being approached so forceful.
“I’m sorry. I don’t mean to be all over your shit, but I have to- I mean do you have time to talk?” Yoongi said as he partically begged. He’s been rather drained out of inspiration so meeting you was like a breath of fresh air.
You agreed as you both walked out of the same alley way Yoongi was last week. Yoongi stood awkwardly as he cleared his thought.
“Do you- I mean what is your story?” Yoongi asked as you had shared it with him. Yoongi listened and you took note of that as you smiled. You finished as Yoongi decided to tell you information that he rarely shared with new strangers.
You two kept in touch after that meeting, never shared your face as he never really asked. Yoongi had gained a liking to you wether he saw your face or not, he liked you. It was almost like a highschool crush. Waiting at his phone for you to text him and act all gushy.
“Do you want to maybe meet again? No masks? No club shit?”
You two would agree on a time and day and once Yoongi arrives he has trouble finding you. So he texts you and once he looks up he sees you waving at him and holy shit was all that was on Yoongi’s mind as you were like eye candy. Yoongi felt his heart race as he walked towards you, sitting down on the booth at the small restaurant.
“You’re gorgeous.” Yoongi thought out loud as he almost immediately apologized trying to save himself from the little stability he has.
“If you say that, I guess this is a date now?” You smirked as you got your lyric book giving him a page that you wrote naming it “Yoongi” it was a song all about him.
Namjoon:
Tumblr media
— namjoon being known to be one of the biggest flirts and he usually plays around till he meets you. the problem is you’re a flirt yourself and he can’t help but become a mess.
Namjoon was probably the biggest flirt. He was a C.E.O and all his employees knew that he was joking half the time and it was just his personality to flirt.
So when he needed a new assistant due to one taking maturity leave. Namjoon would look around almost everywhere to find a new one. Once he laid eyes on your profile and your experience in this department he hired you on the spot. Probably a rather wreckless decision but in the end it was probably one of the best ones.
Namjoon would meet you and trying to get close would invite you to a coffee to know how you two can work together.
“Is that a date Mr.Kim?” You asked as Namjoon widen his eyes as shock ran through his body.
“I-No, of course not!” Namjoon would stutter through his sentence.
Two flirts... but one of them not knowing how to handle being flirted with. It’s only a disaster waiting. Namjoon had no one really flirt with him even if he is good looking for himself.
“Let’s keep it professional, alright Mr.Kim?” You winked as Namjoon looked back at your boxes of papers helping you unpack.
Namjoon... didn’t realize the mess he got himself into. The meetings you two would have and the typical flirts you would throw his way as the presentation was given making him stop focusing and tap his pen. You laughed thinking he knew you were joking right?
Namjoon spent nights in his bed thinking if you were joking or if you wanted something more. I mean... even if you two flirted you would get closer and share things just because you two were always seen together. Meetings, in his office, and you two had similar hours.
Namjoon was invited to a business party and requested that you joined him. Namjoon having help with his designer to pick a unique fashionable suit since this was an annually event.
You and Namjoon arrive at the event together looking stunning to the gods. You realize this was for a business point of view to make company with people and to get friendly.
You announced you were going to talk to companies and see if you can get some partners. Namjoon appreciated your way of thinking and set you off.
Namjoon walked to the bar wanting to get a drink and as he walked towards you, he saw you flirting with another male. I mean yeah you two weren’t dating persay but it still stung but he wouldn’t admit it.
He grabbed your arm and you waved goodbye, as you tried to hide your confusion of why Namjoon got so angry all of a sudden. You went into a guest room as Namjoon realized what he had just done and there was no turning back on this.
“Why did you drag me here?” You asked as you raised an eyebrow.
“Why are you flirting with that man?”
“What do you mean? I was doing business?”
“But- I- Are we a thing or not? I’m always so confused, you catch me staring all the time. You see me blush and fluster when you’re around!” Namjoon admits as his eyes start to gloss. The burning sensation in his eyes.
“Oh god- Namjoon I didn’t mean to.”
“So do you not like me?” Namjoon asked as you grabbed his wrists. Pulling him closer, you kissed his forehead.
“I like you Namjoon, a whole lot.” You snickered as Namjoon smiles.
Hoseok:
Tumblr media
— hoseok being obsessed with a street artist, but turns out he catches him in the act and you propose a deal so you can keep your identity a secret.
Hoseok would see beautiful street art around Korea, the rise of street art would make him want to meet an artist someday. In his mind it would be a bucket list.
There was one artist that Hoseok just fell in love with. His initials would be on every piece so he could tell who did it. The instagram was full of pieces that Hoseok has seen around or new ones that he wanted to find.
Hoseok walked home one late night, seeing that he had stayed late for taking his friends shift due to them having a family emergency.
Hoseok walked through the streets at night with his earplugs in. His favorite chill music filling his ears as the cold wind blew.
Hoseok turned the corner to see a male spray painting. Hoseok’s stopped like deer in headlights as he came closer to the male. Seeing that his mask was off since he was finishing the last touches of the pieces.
Maybe Hoseok should learn his situation on how it’s very late at night and sneaking behind someone’s back was probably not the best idea.
“Why don’t you have your mask on?” Hoseok asked causing the spraypainter to jump. He turned around as Hoseok noticed the signature, it was him... WAIT HIM?
“Oh shit” He said before grabbing his backpack wanting to leave in a hurry. Hoseok pleased that he can explain.
“Wait! I didn’t mean to like see your whole identity. I just got off of work!” Hoseok pleaded with you as you put back your mask trying to have him forget your features.
“Well what do you want?” You asked as you quirked an eyebrow taking off your earphones, to hear Hoseok more clearly.
“What do you mean? We could just never speak of this again.” Hoseok said rubbing the back of his head.
“No, what if you leave here. Tell everyone and I’m exposed for the rest of my lifetime.” You said exaggerating with hand motions.
“Okay probably not a li-“
“That’s not important! Anything? Want me to teach you how to spray paint? Want me to draw a piece for your girlfriend? Anything?”
“Okay first off, if anything it will be a boyfriend. What about if we just hang out together! Call me when you spray!” Hoseok cheered as you sighed realizing asking for anything was a mistake... maybe.
You two exchanged numbers and everytime you would finish a piece with Hoseok watching. He would always compliment it. No matter how long or how short the piece took. Hoseok would run from work when he did have a late shift to see you again. Talking just face to face when you two met only turned into texting and wanting to actually hang out outside of the “deal”.
You realized compared to your older pieces without Hoseok. They were darker, and your followers noticed it and assumed you got a boyfriend as a joke. Nowadays pieces were full of color, Hoseok choosing the main color of reds and yellows.
You did sense that Hoseok was beganing to grow a bit distant. You would text him the address and he would arrive later than usual. In reality, Hoseok began to have a massive crush on you. Hoseok took so long to get ready because he changed outfits at least 3 times. Looking in the mirror before he just took off to see you realizing the time. Hoseok wouldn’t look at the piece anymore. He would just look at you, the side views of your face, and just your aura was addicting.
The next day, Hoseok sent you an address and you were confused but he said to “just come before I regret this.” You grabbed your backpack and headed his way.
You walked to the alleyway, Hoseok sent and you saw him standing with flowers, full on blush across his face as you chuckled. You turned the corner and you saw it.
“I like you a lot, will you go out with me?” with spray paint.
“You stole my black!” You said as Hoseok realized what you had just said.
“Really? You’re worried about your black! You know how long-”
“Oh shut up and let me take you out my treat.”
Seokjin:
Tumblr media
— seokjin has been pressured to date by his friends and to bring someone to their romantic outing so when he sees you on tinder he begs you for this favor till he actually starts to like you.
“Seokjin you need a date! Just find someone, we don’t want to go without you there” Seokjin’s friend explained as he sighed once again. This wasn’t the first time he was somehow pressured into finding someone. He knew his friend didn’t mean harm but it was tough.
“I will. Don’t worry, I’ll have a date tomorrow.” Seokjin smiled as he waved goodbye catching his bus to go home. Seokjin looked through the apple store finding the classic dating app.
Tinder, had been one of the most popular ones. Seokjin made a profile and saw through matches. Switching left and right till he landed on someone that met his eye.
“Y/N” was his name as Seokjin right swiped as the match was set immediately. Seokjin was sent to a chat room.
“I’m going to be honest. I need a date for a friends date. I’ll even pay you just for one night please?”
“wow straight to the point I see.”
Somehow you agreed to this because Seokjin seemed like a nice guy to you. He told you the place and the time and you showed up 5 minutes late seeing Seokjin looking around the cafe saying “He’ll be here soon”.
You greeted them as Seokjin widen his eyes... you looked a lot better in person then on your profile. Your photos did not do you justice compared to real life. Seokjin had to get himself together as he nodded and smiled. Seeing his friend have a great reaction to him, you looking put together.
“Oh yes, so how did you two meet ?” Panic was all over you and Seokjin’s face as you two looked at eachother. You covered the awkward silience with a laugh. Hoping Seokjin can take one for the team and explain.
“I meet him through a Beyoncé concert.” Seokjin said as you agreed trying not to show any panic on your face.
“Oh really? Wow that was so long ago. You’ve must have known eachother for quite some time.” You laughed as you hit Seokjin with your elbow queuing him to laugh.
You two acted all lovey dovery all night due to one: just for the acting of being a couple for Seokjin’s friends and two: you two actually started to enjoy each other’s company.
You told stories about your life while they assumed Seokjin had heard these already, he hadn’t so he was so intrigued in the stories almost looking at you like you were the only person in this restaurant. You would look at him while explaining and everything would go in slow motion for Seokjin. His heart raced as he felt more flustered as you stared at him.
“Alright, thank you! For inviting us out we have to go since Seokjin has work tomorrow.” You said as you offered Seokjin your hand to get up from his chair, Seokjin hestitated before you gave him the okay.
You walked Seokjin to your car. You opened your car door and Seokjin sat down seeing you actually had a nice car.
“I assumed that went well?” You snickered as you turned on the engine.
“Can we go to the park?” Seokjin asked as you were taken back by how late it was but you did look up to see stars shine.
“Yeah, that sounds nice.” You agreed.
The two of you would walk around and you would check in on Seokjin seeing him shiver as you took off your coat to give it to him. He would delcine it at first but you insisted. The warm cozy feeling in his gut as he wanted to confess right then and there.
“Do you maybe want to go on a real date?” Seokjin asked as you snickered.
“I’ve been waiting for you to ask me that all night.”

BTS Reaction: They come home and find you singing/dancing to one of their songs
I had this idea in my head for a while. Because sometimes I just get so lost in BTS’s music that I am fangirling/jamming out so hard and not giving a single fuck who sees me. It made me wonder how the boys would react to this. So here we go! As always requests are open if you have any ideas you would like me to write for BTS or Got7 <3
Namjoon
Tumblr media
Namjoon told you he was going out for a while, but promised he would be back soon. While he was gone you were quite bored, and decided to put your music on shuffle. Suddenly, Trivia:Love began playing through your headphones. There was no way you were going to stay seated and listen to this song calmly. It was your boyfriend’s solo and you had to show it the proper love and respect it deserves. He arrived home to find you dancing around the living room with a hairbrush in your hand, pretending like you were singing to an arena full of people. He couldn’t help himself but to burst out laughing hysterically. “I had no idea you liked my song that much baby”. His voice startled you and you threw the hair brush across the room, causing him to laugh even harder. “Namjoon! You scared the hell out of me! I wasn’t expecting you home so early!” He softly kissed your temple and sat down on the couch. “Well? Don’t let me spoil your fun! Keep going. It’ll be nice to be an audience member and not the performer for a change”.
Jin
Tumblr media
You wanted to surprise your boyfriend by cooking him dinner. He was always spoiling you and treating you like a queen, so you wanted to do the same for him for a change. You had your music on shuffle playing through your speakers. You began to hear the soft piano melody of Epiphany filling up the room. You checked the clock and figured it would still be a little while before Jin was home. You picked the spoon up off the counter and began singing along. Jin walked up to the front door and heard you before he saw you. He chuckled to himself as he heard you belting out the chorus. He walked in as soon as you were singing the end of the chorus so he decided to sing with you. “I’m the one I should looove”, he sang at the top of his lungs. You screamed and abruptly turned around, hand clenching the fabric of your shirt over your chest. “Kim Seokjin! You nearly gave me a heart attack!” He wrapped his arms around you and pulled your head against his chest. “Dinner and a show? I must have saved someone very important in my past life to deserve this.” He kissed the top of your head and would encourage you to keep singing while you cooked, absolutely loving how your voice sounded singing his song.
Yoongi
Tumblr media
Yoongi was wrapping up a late night at the studio. He normally would call when he was on his way home, but this time it had slipped his mind. He walked into the apartment to see you dressed with a bandanna around your head, rapping along to his part in mic drop. He seriously thought you were the cutest damn thing he had ever seen. He had to cover his mouth in order to keep you from hearing him laughing because he didn’t want you to stop just yet. When it got to the chorus you tried your best to match their choreography, feeling quite proud of yourself. You turned around and saw Yoongi standing in the doorway, but you didn’t stop. You turned up the theatrics and really gave him a performance to remember, he had a smile on his face the entire time. When you finished the song, Yoongi started cheering and clapping for you. “BTS who? I only know y/n”. You smiled at him brightly as you grabbed his hand and pulled him down to lay on the couch with you. He held you in his arms, still silently laughing to himself and making a mental note to forget to call you more often.
Hoseok
Tumblr media
Hoseok had texted you and let you know that he would probably be at the studio late, working on some new choreography. Knowing you had the night to yourself you put on some music you could dance to and keep yourself entertained. Little did you know, learning the new choreography didn’t take him nearly as long as he was expecting it to. When he walked through the front door he saw you with your ARMY bomb in hand, dancing around the living room singing “I’m a new generation Anpanman, I’m a new super hero Anpanman”. He quietly snuck past you to grab his own ARMY bomb, and joined you in the living room. It startled you to see him so early, but you quickly got over the initial shock and grabbed onto him as you both danced around the living room together. By the time you were done you both collapsed on the ground, sides hurting from laughing so much. “I am so glad I came home early. Gosh you looked adorable jagi”. “I am really glad you came home early too Hobi. I was feeling a little lonely dancing by myself but seeing you smile and have fun too cheered me up instantly”. He pressed a soft kiss to your lips, as he looked at you with nothing but love and adoration in his eyes.
Jimin
Tumblr media
Jimin decided he was going to come to your apartment and surprise you with a visit today. He finally had some time off and he wanted to spend it with you. You had given him a key to your place a while ago. He unlocked the front door and could hear you in the bedroom singing along to Promise. He instantly had the biggest smile on his face. He felt a warmth in his chest as he listened to you singing his song. He was torn between wanting to just stand there and listen to you or walk into the room and give you the biggest hug. His want for your affection eventually won out. He knocked softly on the door and entered the room. Your face lit up as soon as you saw him. You ran across the room and jumped into his arms. “Jimin! I missed you so much I am so happy you are here!” “I missed you too jagi. I heard you singing my song.” He set you down and you began to blush furiously. He smiled softly at you. “You sounded beautiful. Can we lie down together? I want to hear you sing some more.” Jimin knew you couldn’t say no to such a sweet request so of course you agreed. He laid down with his head on your chest, arms wrapped around your waist hugging you close as you continued singing. He let out a content sigh, as he though that there was no better way he would rather spend his time.
Taehyung
Tumblr media
Taehyung had called you and told you he was on his way home from the studio and would be home soon. However, that didn’t stop you from continuing your mini concert you were performing in your living room. You timed it just right so that when he was walking in the door it would be just in time for Yoongi’s part in Cypher pt. 3. You knew how much Taehyung loved it and you wanted nothing more than to make him smile. When he walked through the door and heard you rapping “Suga AKA Agust D” he dropped his bags and came over to perform with you. He grabbed the remote off the table and pretended to use it as a microphone. It quickly turned into a competition to see who could be more extra while rapping along to the song. However he was so impressed by you that he stopped and just sat down and watched you, hyping you up after every line that came out of your mouth. When you were done you collapsed on the couch next to him. He peppered kisses all over your face as he praised you, “Min Yoongi better watch out. My baby is a badass rapper who’s going to dominate the music world!” You shoved him away playfully as you both laughed at each other. He snuggled closer to you and you couldn’t help but smile, completely enjoying the feeling of being in his arms. 
Jungkook
Tumblr media
Today was the day you usually spent cleaning up your apartment. You put some headphones on and put on some music to help pass the time. Jungkook had planned to come over and help you, but you were so engrossed in your music you didn’t see the text from him that said he was coming over soon. Magic Shop was one of your favorite songs, and it didn’t matter where you were or what you were doing you always had to sing along. He could hear you singing from outside as you forgot to close the window. He was laughing as he entered your apartment. He saw your ARMY bomb sitting on the table and picked it up. He turned it on and started swinging it back and forth as you sang “So show me.” “I’ll show you”, he responded. You jumped and couldn’t help but laugh when you turned around. Jungkook answered your smile with an equally wide one of his own. “Keep singing baby! You sound amazing!” He became your #1 fan as he sat on the couch, waving the ARMY bomb around and yelling out all of the fan chants. When you finished the song you bowed, and he began shouting for an encore. You spent the next 30 minutes performing songs as he cheered for you with the biggest smile on his face.

More Modern Verse AU
- Believe it or not, Eren does indeed know Lucifer Morningstar and met him in his club one day
- Grisha took his sons to meet Lucifer who is an old friend of his.
- The Jaeger kids always refer to Lucifer as Uncle Lucifer or Uncle Luci affectionately xD
- Lucifer spoils the kids rotten which is shocking given his occasionally jerkish moments
- Lucifer can sing and occasionally you hear him and Eren sing together at times whilst he plays the piano
- A good reason why it is best not to mess with Eren Jaeger nowadays is because besides being Hades grandson,which is enough to terrify anyone, he has the backing of several individuals from various verses, Lucifer most especially and Lucifer is feared by so many people and for obvious reasons.
- (Forgot to mention this) All the members of Aogiri are multilingual and can speak the following languages: German, Turkish, Greek, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, French and English
- Lelouch swears in French a lot
- Eren and League of Legends’ Ahri debuted as idols around the same time, though Eren is technically her senior
-Speaking of Vrains, imagine all anime characters surfing on the data storm using the D-Board xD
- The rest of Aogiri still live in their dorm
- They were the only ones that bothered to keep in touch with Dick during those 5 hellish years. That alone made Dick’s day. They even playfully scolded Dick for not bringing Rachel to them and the other anime heroes as they would have helped her adjust better and besides the Fairy Tail Guild would have helped Rachel better control her powers. Not just that, they are aware about stuff regarding the OG Titans. Considering their hectic schedules though, it made sense for Dick not to tell them about Rachel
- Eren wears black and red a lot nowadays, nod to both Hades and Apollo his grandfathers and also his uncle Lucifer Morningstar
- Hades loves hearing Aogiri sing as it keeps him calm and makes him smile which is funny since he is meant to be the grumpiest god
-Everyone compares Aogiri to the Sirens and Muses due to the seductive charming harmonic nature of their voices and music generally
- Interestedly all Aogiri members are grand children of the Muses which explains their extraordinary musical talents
- Speaking of Hades and Apollo, Eren is officially the richest demigod and the richest kid in the world due to Hades’s insane amount of wealth. Apollo isn’t doing too shabby in the wealth department either.
- Both Hades and Apollo spoil their little grandson and his band mates
- Aogiri were originally Eren’s bodyguards which makes the Sailor Senshi comparisons even more funnier
- Ironically that makes the other Sailor Senshi his cousins since they are related to the Titans of Myth
- Hotaru aka Sailor Saturn and Ymir the first are his actual sisters
- Regarding Eren’s lack of passion , Eren stopped singing all together and only opted for rap parts. Heck he purposely reduced his lines due to the emotional turmoil he and the boys were going through. That alone made fans sad to the point where they would all try and encourage him to sing
- Fans often post covers of their songs and dance and that alone makes the boys smile
- Aogiri got so much hate because a lot of people envied their success
- Levi ends up jumping ship and starting a pop band, first as a duo with Mikasa and then an actual rival boyband with Erwin, Mike, Reiner, Armin, Jean,Connie and Bertholedt named No Name just to spite Eren. That move did not end well and had many question Levi’s so-called public remorse. Despite the controversy, they ended up topping the charts and eventually outsold Aogiri with many accusing No Name of chart manipulation
- That all changes after Kaiba with some help from Lucifer expose No Name and the Ackermans of chart manipulation and fraud
- Not helping is that around that time Aogiri were caught up in a vote manipulation surrounding the show that created the band in the first place
- Armin, Jean and Connie were in the band initially but walked out citing personal career choices but it is a lot complicated than that
- Kaneki is the second in command and the leader of the bodyguards and as such he and Minako Aino get along well
- Natsu snores much to everyone’s annoyance
- Aogiri’s new dorm is so big that each member now has their own separate room as opposed to before where they shared rooms

Tumblr media
well hello !! you just saw me yesterday, but this time i’m coming at you with my second muse !! now look - i told myself i wasn’t going to have two, but he came to my mind after creating chunja and i loved them both too much to choose !! so without further ado, i present to you my complete opposite actual baby zachary “zack” choi !! he’s in kdi & has way too much going on. but anyways you can click here for his profile, and under the cut is some info on him, i tried to make his shorter, i swear !! and i forgot to say on her’s, but like this if you’re interested in some plotting !! i can’t wait to interact with you all.~
his full name is zachary taeho choi, taeho being his korean/middle name ! but he hates zachary because it’s so formal and he definitely is not - so zack is both his stage name and preferred name since practically...always !!
so !! his story actually begins in la, california. his parents split shortly after he was born so while he sees his dad from time to time, his mom has been the main one supporting him both financially & emotionally, so she’s really his only active parental figure ?? 
this is a big reason why he’s so maternal and emotionally transparent ?? the toxic masculinity just didn’t pass over to him bc his mom always taught him how to be in tune with his emotions, embrace them, and just to care for everyone freely !! which is a big reason why he’s so affectionate now. 
he’s a second gen korean american and was raised by a pretty american mom !! his parents never learned korean and therefore didn’t teach him, which is why he struggled so much to adjust when he got here !
also the only child, so if you wonder why he’s always so eager around the kdi boys and referring to them as his brothers - there you go !! he always wanted siblings !!
totally irrelevant fact but he was such a skater boi back in la and will kill for a chance to show some of his tricks nowadays !! he’s just like....begging someone to ask him to skate lmao !! but since he doesn’t really have the chance now he just rolls around in his hoverboard because he is a legitimate child !
but look - this boy has aaaalways loved to rap and sing. way before so!ar, kdi, any of it ! his mom loves music too, and he grew up surrounded by it in la, so quickly grew attached to it ! also loves attention, which just meant he was a little performing machine wherever he meant !! i’m saying dancing down the grocery aisles at five years old to grocery store music type of extra everyone
but his interest for kpop didn’t really peak until later on ! he tried out for a middle through high performing arts school when he got to the 6th grade ! fun fact he performed look at me now and they thought he was a joke rip...but what got him in was singing stereo hearts !! don’t you love the early 2010s everyone
anyways he got in for singing !! and there was just like ... a wave of kpop stans wanting to be like idols there !! at first he was really put off & a little weirded out because he’d never been into it but !!
for a showcase these girls performed a kpop song ( the boys if you were curious sksk ) and baam !! he went down this endless kpop rabbit hole which hasn’t ended to this day.
 so he basically his love for kpop transferred into his love for korean culture ! he wanted to know more about his origins, so got into the language, history & all that. so around this time was when he contemplated traveling to the country ! but never expected to move there, or anything. 
it was only right before christmas of his junior year did things start to change !! news about online video auditions for so!ar spread in his school like a w i l d f i r e. but zack really knew he wasn’t that good of a singer in comparison to his other classmates, and didn’t expect anything out of it !! but he did feel a lot more comfortable in his rap skills, so took a risk and rapped as his primary skill !
so you could imagine this boy was...confused af when he got called back !! he hadn’t even told his mom about it, or really anyone so that they wouldn’t get their hopes up. he hadn’t expected for it to go anywhere and now that it had...he didn’t really know what to do ! 
but when he eventually got around to telling is mom ?? she was soso excited !! she was basically .... a failed musician as a teen sksks, so she was happy to see her son have a real shot at fame. so zack was kind of like - wait slow down what’s going on ?? but she was like book the flight to korea !! right now !!
initially, the plan was for him to go for his in-person audition then spend the rest of winter break in korea with his mom, but that didn’t really work because he was chosen & given the shot to train as long as he could start right away ! he ... hadn’t expected to make it that far at all and was really at a loss of what to do since he had a whole life in la !
but after talking to his mom for a bit, she basically told him the story of how she missed out on opportunities & felt unfulfilled, so at a point he was kind of just like fine !! let’s do it !! and started the move there.
everything was fine at first - he got enrolled in a korean school, he was having fun working toward his dream, and his mom was staying nearby in an air bnb, but the move was temporary, and after a month she had to return to the states. that was when things got really hard, and really real for zack. he was only 15 at the time, barely knew any of the language, and his only family were aunts and uncles he’d barely met. it was a really rough patch in his move & probably when he was visibly the saddest !! 
def considered moving back many times at this point to just feel happy again, since he had such an attachment to his old life !! but the friends he’d made made things a lot easier !
at first when he was placed in kdi he didn’t know what to expect - they had this delinquent type image to them, and zack being the babiest person ever didn’t know if he could fit it !!
and at first, he was really awkward, trying to work as well in the rougher concepts as he did the cute ones. but nowadays he’s gotten a lot better and his rap skills have helped a lot with him gaining duality, something he’s now known for !!
 now for some tidbits on him !!
he’s got two fan nicknames - the meme king, which he technically gave himself on a vlive because this toddler will not stop referencing memes & vines !! and the last is zenergy, because he’s always at two extremes - either passed out sleep on the couch, or up and bouncing off the walls !! there’s no in between !!
suuuper affectionate !! sometimes it can come off as overbearing but i swear he means well. he just got a lot of love during his childhood and feels like he should pass it on !! like if someone’s teasing and is like “awww you love me !!” he’s like “yeah of course ??” also means he depends on people a lot for attention & overall validation ! just.... a whole softie when it comes to that okay
also i must mention he willingly ships himself with everyone ??
but on the other hand, a very closeted very shy/panicked bi !! like if he thinks a guy’s being serious and flirting with him ? he will freeze ! he’s just not used to the idea & just really is figuring his feelings out. but he stays having unexpected crushes because he’s a lovebug so oh well ! this is something he’ll probably struggle with for a bit, but that’s what development’s for, folks !
a whole ass momma’s boy ! he loves her with his whole heart, especially since she sees how hard she worked to support the two of them ! he has a rough time being away from her, but you can catch him facetiming her everyday !!
also v chivalrous ?? his mom would beat his ass if he didn’t use manners so you can catch him opening doors, pulling chairs back for people, all that ! a lot of people seem to think that’s all fanservice but no...he literally Cannot not do it !!
oh and his duality is a little shocking ?? but like i said before, it’s been something he’s had to work on. he struggled a lot at first especially since his korean pronunciation wasn’t up there, so it was hard for him not to be so focused on that ! but now that he’s more confident in his skills it’s easier to play up their concepts for cameras, so he can definitely switch it up for cameras nowadays ! but...turn them off and he’s a baby lamb all over again everyone
he can be very lazy ! has all the ambition but none of the energy. if he doesn’t want to do something, he can put up a whole fit about it, so kdi members beware !! just put him in his place, he’ll get over it sksksk
relating to that, he respects his kdi hyungs a lot !! you have to remember he was a true baby when he came to korea to train, so he depended on them & other trainees a lot. he hasn’t forgot that and nowadays would do anything for them ! therefore takes their opinions very seriously and is just...a baby around them !
but @ the future kdi maknae: he may swear he’s baby, but he also swears you’re his child !! 
a major kpop stan nowadays !! like past him wouldn’t believe it ?? a huge gg stan especially, and he’s learning all the new dances everyday !!
still in the honeymoon phase lowkey...? like he can’t even believe he’s famous !! it still comes as a shock for him, and therefore he reacts to nearly all “omg you’re so famous i love you !!” fans with a “thanks ig?? i’m literally just zack but ok”
he does want to explore other entertainment fields eventually, especially variety & music production !! 
also remember how i said he loves vines ?? yeah my ask message on the main wasn’t for nothing ! he reenacts the zack stop vine nearly everyday folks
alright this is long let’s move to wanted connections ! i think that’s all anyways ?? if not i’ll add more later ! but for now, let’s go !!
wanted connections
best friends !! please give zack someone stupid to act out with ok
someone who helped him adjust to korea when he first got here & took him under their wing !! maybe they’ve developed a sibling type relationship ?
a grumpy muse who he’s always trying to cheer up & make happy !
maybe another foreign muse to share his stuggles with ?? i don’t know if there are other la muses but if so childhood friends are an option !
he would 100% goof off with all the staff so whenever they get some staff he’d love to get kdi into some mess with them !
the one person who he just really doesn’t like ??
cute little crushes !!
language exchange buddies ?? it doesn’t have to be just korean !
someone he really looks up to & adores !!
a partner in crime - they’re always sneaking out the dorm, going thrill seeking and just having fun together !
frenemies !!
i’ll add more as i think of it !

Thoughts on WayV’s debut
Yes, I’m doing another one of these, pretending that people were breathlessly waiting for my irrelevant opinions on asian artist lmao 1) My husband (Kun) finally properly debuted!!!! And what adds more to my excitement is that he did the part of my boyfriend (Jaehyun) “I’ve been banging with my team” dis bitch is fucking blessed. He looks so fucking good I cried! Please someone tell him he’s the only man that matters on this planet. Our captain! 2) why do I always stan the maknae???? Baby yangyang is the loveliest! Also when can I hear him rap in German because wow I will actually die 3) The V in WayV stands for visual. This is probably the most attractive group I’ve ever seen. Still, Xiaojun takes the crown. Bow down for the most beautiful man ever created. Taeyong and Taehyung found dead in a ditch somewhere. I ain’t even his stan but facts are facts. Every time he came on my screen I gasped. 4) The world was created so that it could be Ten’s stage. I adore 127 but wow this unit with ten as a center kills the choreo.   5) Lucas has always looked like a baby to me but wow his styling for this!!!!! He’s a pimp and I’m his whore. Also I wasn’t a huge fan of his rapping before but I kept gasping every time he rapped on Regular now for the sad stuff 6) Hendry’s face is actual art. It’s so refined and sculpted. Why is this under the sad part? Because I can’t comment on his singing/rapping because there was practically none. This unit was pretty great in dividing the lines except for him and Winwin. But woo woo I guess? 7) I never said ‘give winwin more lines’ before because he’s a dancer first and foremost and I thought he’d get lines eventually + I thought there were other members more “deserving” of lines considering their vocals like Yuta but honestly? This unit was so severe in terms of Winwin’s lines and screen time that by the end of the mv when his ‘diamond in mouth’ shot came on I had forgotten that he was even in this unit :’D so yeah give winwin more lines you cowards 8) and the biggest caveat of all: the song. I actually really really enjoyed this version of Regular. I think I like it the most which is super surprising since A) I’m not really a fan of Regular generally, B) I usually like the version I listen to first the best and C) I never ever listen to chinese versions or songs in general since the sound of the language doesn’t appeal to me (not hate or racism or anything like I would understand if people wouldn’t like listening to songs in Arabic for the same reason) but I actually super enjoyed this! Initially I only checked it out because I wanted to support my husband but I loved it. I think the Chinese version sounds very put together whereas I felt that the English, and to a greater extent the Korean, versions were very messy.  So I'm not so much upset that WayV debuted with a chinese version of a NCT 127 song, but more that SM squandered the potential they had in their hands. What's that you ask? See The Vision full length. That song is the fucking shit. It's like Neo Got My Back (a song which called me its bitch) and The 7th Sense (the best debut from a new generation group). They didn't even put it on the album. Instead we got Come Back like no offense who even wanted that? :'D
There are a lot of people who are saying we're complaining too much and that we should celebrate WayV debuting and to think of the boys who must be happy to finally debut properly and I agree, I will still support them and the mv was fucking dope, but I'm still fucking upset. I support the boys but I still want better treatment for them.  Conclusion: This is what Regular should’ve been but also where the fuck is See The Vision?

The Sugarhill Gang - “Rapper’s Delight” The Best Rap Album of All Time Song released in 1979. Compilation released in 1999. Hip Hop
“Rapper’s Delight” by The Sugarhill Gang is the most important song in the history of hip hop music. Period. It was the genre’s first commercial record and it sold millions of copies around the world. It suddenly introduced white people and everyone outside of the tri-state area, as well as countless people in other countries, to a Bronx-born, organic subculture whose popularity had previously grown through mostly word-of-mouth. It’s not the first hip hop song ever recorded (that honor belongs to “King Tim III (Personality Jock)” by The Fatback Band), but historians unanimously agree that it is indeed the genre’s runner-up record. And without its commercial success, hip hop might have only become a late 70s-early 80s New York fad, only to be cherished by its small set of original participants and Pitchfork-reading hipster types who wax nostalgic about those halcyon CBGB’s and Max’s Kansas City days where the city’s various strains of new wave, glam rock, punk, art punk, no wave, and the like all converged.
But I’m here to tell you that this iconic song, the one that made hip hop a viable commercial enterprise and enabled it to eventually become the biggest music genre on the planet, is actually a total fraud. And that’s for a couple reasons. Now, before you go all Rocko lavender hippo lady on me, let me just say that “Rapper’s Delight” is by no means a bad song. In fact, it’s one of the greatest songs ever made. But it was a total fucking cash grab, too; an absolute sellout record. And that’s ironic because, for a genre that’s had so many insufferable purists who bristle at the idea of inauthenticity (full disclosure: I was one of those people), they have no problem with calling this song an indispensable piece of “real” and “true” hip hop music.
Let me explain some hip hop history, first though.
Hip hop culture began in the south Bronx in the summer of 1973, about a full six years before “Rapper’s Delight” came out. It was started by a DJ from Jamaica named Kool Herc. Herc is the genius who figured out how to isolate the instrumental break on a record and extend it by having two copies of the record and lining up the second one to start after the break from the first one finished. This allowed people to dance to the same beat for extended periods of time, which gave birth to breakdancing and dance battles. Another thing the extension of the break enabled was rapping. Rapping came out of toasting, a Jamaican DJ tradition in which the DJ would bust out a nifty and rhythmic, spoken-word rhyme, often shouting out someone of note who was in attendance. But then that eventually morphed into an extended series of rhymes, which gave way to the MC.
Rapping at that point was largely a poetic, improvised stream-of-consciousness. MCs would rap for minutes on end, displaying their mental dexterity as they would do their best to keep on beat and try to make sense while rhyming the last word of each line with the next.
That’s where Sylvia Robinson comes into this story. Robinson was an R&B / soul / funk / disco artist and producer who had appeared plenty of times on the R&B charts and landed a top-three national hit with “Pillow Talk” in 1973. In 1979, she started her own label, Sugar Hill Records, which would become the most important hip hop label in the early part of the next decade. Robinson’s first interaction with rapping didn’t come inside a Bronx club or at a Bronx block party though. It was instead at her niece’s birthday party in Harlem, where DJ Lovebug Starski was doing a bit of call-and-response with his audience. 
From The Independent:
"The DJ [was talking] over the music, and the kids were going crazy. He would say something like, 'Throw your hands [up in] the air' and they'd do it," she recalled. "All of a sudden, something said [to me]: 'Put something like that on a record, and it will be the biggest thing you ever had'. I didn't even know you called it rap."
At first, Robinson had no takers. No rapper or DJ she approached thought making a hip hop record was a good idea. It was just a fun thing people did at parties. It wasn’t something that would ever end up being profitable. According to cultural critic Harry Allen, when Chuck D of Public Enemy first heard that rap was going to be put on records, he asked, “'How are you going to put three hours on a record?' Because that's the way MCs used to rhyme. They'd just rhyme and rhyme and rhyme for hours."
But Robinson would eventually find some people to rap on a record. It’s unclear whether or not it was her son or her herself who initially found the first member of her rap group, but it happened at a pizza shop in Englewood, New Jersey, where Big Bank Hank was spotted rapping while working his shift. Robinson then brought Hank out in front of the parlor to audition. The next member, Master Gee, would then audition in her car, followed by Wonder Mike. Robinson couldn’t decide which rapper she liked most, so she decided to sign all of them. And thus, the Sugarhill Gang was born.
However, it should be noted that Big Bank Hank, Master Gee, and Wonder Mike were absolute nobodies at the time. They weren’t serious MCs or DJs. The guys who had been putting it down since hip hop’s inception like Kool Herc, Afrika Bambaataa, Grandmaster Flash, and Kool DJ AJ had never had these guys rap on their stages before. They were total amateurs.
But Robinson didn’t care and not long after she signed them, “Rapper’s Delight” came to fruition. The #1 song in the country at the time happened to be Chic’s “Good Times,” and coincidentally, it was also a superb beat for rapping over. Robinson probably thought that using an uber popular instrumental for her rap record would move units, too, and ultimately, she would be proven right. She enlisted a funk band called Positive Force to recreate the “Good Times” instrumental, and,  incredibly, they and the Sugarhill Gang pumped out “Rapper’s Delight” in a single nineteen-minute take. There were no lyrical flubs and no mistakes by any of the players. It was an amazingly efficient use of studio time.
That nineteen minutes was then pared down to 14:30 and the recording was pressed to wax and then went to sale. However, “Rapper’s Delight” failed to catch on at first. Radio DJs were reticent to play such a ridiculously long song and hip hop party DJs had no idea who the Sugarhill Gang was. But once a radio version was cut, which is the version I’ve posted today, the record got radio play, which then translated to immense record sales. It made the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #36, while hitting #4 on the R&B chart. And it became an even bigger hit outside of the U.S., reaching the top-five all across Europe, Canada, and South Africa. It also sold literally millions of records. The second hip hop song to ever be recorded for commercial purposes was a suddenly and completely unexpected global phenomenon. Hip hop had hit the big time.
But outside of the fact that this monstrous song was clearly a mere ploy to make money and was actually not an organic piece of Bronx-bred hip hop culture, there was even more fraudulence to it. Big Bank Hank, the second MC to grace the track, actually stole all of his verses from another rapper, the legend Grandmaster Caz. Caz was a member of a foundational hip hop group called The Cold Crush Brothers, who were known to rap at parties in the Bronx. Hank offered to become Caz’s manager and took out a loan to upgrade Cold Crush’s soundsystem. Then, to pay off that loan, he got a job at the pizza shop that he was eventually discovered in. But when he was seen rapping while working and was quickly auditioned afterwards, he used Caz’s lyrics. So, when Hank introduces himself on “Rapper’s Delight” with, “I’m the C-A-S-A, the N-O-V-A, and the rest is F-L-Y,” know he is spelling out one of Grandmaster Caz’s nicknames, and without his permission. And to this day, Caz hasn’t seen a single dime from “Rapper’s Delight”’s sales. Criminal shit.
But in the grand scheme of things, despite that bad sleight on Caz and the ultimate motive to record the song, “Rapper’s Delight” is still, by absolute happenstance, a masterpiece. It’s not just one of the first hip hop records, but it’s just so infectiously fun. But because of how fun it is, another thing that apparently pissed off other rappers at the time was that the song wasn’t about anything important. A lot of rappers were angry at the conditions in which they lived and they thought it was lame that a bunch of outsiders had cashed in on their artform while not even channeling any of the south Bronx’s inner rage. But a few years later, Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five would release hip hop’s second unmitigated classic, “The Message,” a socially conscious-painted picture of the South Bronx. And it was released on, funnily enough, Sugar Hill Records.
There’s a moral or something to this story somewhere. Without the selling out and without Big Bank Hank’s lyrical theft, who knows where hip hop culture would be today? “Rapper’s Delight” sure wasn’t made for the purest of reasons, but it exposed hip hop music, and then eventually the actual authentic Bronx culture, to the entire world. Had Sylvia Robinson not seen dollar signs in this fun and unique party gimmick, would Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five or Afrika Bambaataa or Kurtis Blow become household names? Would hip hop ever be sold commercially? Would the following, more lyrical Def Jam wave with acts like Run-D.M.C. and LL Cool J ever happen? And then would N.W.A happen or the Native Tongues posse with A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Busta Rhymes, Queen Latifah, and Black Sheep? I could go on, but you get the picture.
