WARNING: MASSIVE RANT UPCOMING
Huehuehue - this should be fun.
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
I do not hate BTS at all. However, I do hate ARMYs. Not all armys just before I get messages saying āNoT aLl ArMySā. I do hate ARMYs like you, the ones that give ARMYs and BTS a bad name. Let me guess? Youāre one of them ARMYs that believe the boys are yours? That they canāt date because they should focus on you? Youāre one that believes BTS is all k-pop is.
WAKE UP CALL: K-POP IS NOT BTS!
BTS was one of my first groups, however ARMYs did help drive me away from them. Again, not all ARMYs, just the immature ones like you who give them all a bad name. You wonder why ARMYs became one of the most hated fandoms? I have nothing against the 7 of them, theyāre amazing with what theyāve accomplished and I absolutely, hands down, wish them the best and hope they continue to make massive achievements and make the world proud.
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
Now: IF ITāS IS TO DO WITH MY BIO āmostly groups starting with Bā !
There are many groups that begin with B, and ones that I actually stan, groups that are underrated and deserve better, ones that [in my opinion] are better than BTS.
Let me give a few shorts examples.
Now. These groups all begin with B, and yet, have you noticed I donāt just post them? Let me again, give a few small examples of who I post.
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
If you specifically want to see BTS posts then I highly recommend blogs dedicated to them. I could tag a few great ones if youād like? Maybe you could follow the tag BTS!
DO NOT BE DISRESPECTFUL BECAUSE THEYāRE YOUR FAVOURITES
Now I wonāt be surprised if I get a lot of replies talking about how āit isnāt all ARMYsā which Iāve already said that I know or ābut other fandoms do it tooā but weāre not talking about them necessarily. Such as, commenting about BTS EVERYWHERE. You get them on other groups videos (especially on YouTube), on their Instagram lives / VLives, Twitter etc (just look at all them reporting Baekhyuns account). Itās so disrespectful to be always talking about BTS on something that is about a different group. You even get them where K-POP isnāt even mentioned, you have to know your boundaries! AGAIN NOT ALL ARMYS, I KNOW!
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
Now to slightly go off topic.
- Donāt discredit other groups because theyāre one of the ābig 3ā. Many groups trained for years, overcame struggles, worked hard and fought for their debut. Not only that but they also work hard to keep active and not disband, they work hard to have what they have and that shouldnāt be took away because āBTS came from a small companyā.
Guess what? Theyāre not the only ones either
Block-B & B.A.P (as 2 examples) came from āsmallā companies [basically not from the ābig 3ā is what Iām saying]. They overcome A LOT!
These two amazing groups overcame lawsuits against their companies and stayed together, Block-B filed a massive law suit and yet their leader, Zico, still managed to keep that group together and continued to produce and sell AMAZING songs even when they changed companies (very amazing to be able to stay as Block-B even after leaving and joining another company FYI). Did BTS do that? No. Will I discredit them because they didnāt have that hardship? No.
Just because they come from different situations doesnāt mean that they shouldnāt be counted. Many groups have struggled and gone through a hell of a lot, even if they are part of bigger companies but you canāt discredit hard work because of where they come from, to show you how stupid that sounds itās like you like saying
āWell it doesnāt matter what Einstein did because he was ALREADY smart anyway.ā
See how stupid that sounds? Would you discredit him for all of his hard work because he was already in, what some may say, a more advantaged place? No. Itās just silly.
Letās start off when ARMYs try to say that BTS are legends and ā_____ā are just old or trash etc.
Yes, BTS have done so well but theyāre not legends, not yet. Theyāre still a fairly new group, Iām not saying they arenāt amazing, because letās be honest, they are! However, you CANNOT say that they are more legendary or ābetterā than groups like H.O.T, MBLAQ, TVXQ, Shinhwa, BigBang, SHINee, RooāRa etc. When other fandoms say that them groups paved the way for your favourite BTS, theyāre not being disrespectful but they are telling the truth.
Do you really believe BTS would have come this far if it werenāt for all them groups? Maybe. Maybe they would have, maybe they wouldnāt have but we donāt know. K-pop became what it is and known because of them legendary groups! BTS may now be helping pave the way for newer groups too but never ever try and disrespect an older group and say that they had no impact on the industry.
Remember: BTS looks up and admires these groups such as BigBang!
I again, do not hate BTS (in fact I have something about them coming out soon that had been requested).
LETS MOVE ON TO: PRODUCING ETC
A lot of ARMYs that are toxic always bring up the fact that they [BTS] do everything themselves. Now, again for examples Iāll use Block-B and B.A.P first.
Zico - one of the best rappers and producers in the industry. Him and Kyung have produced all of Block-Bās albums. He writes his own lyrics and music.
Yongguk - with his latest songs, he directed, edited, produced, wrote the lyrics, arranged, mixed and mastered it. Now, that takes serious skill too.
A hell of a lot of groups & artists produce their own music / own lyrics / own choreography etc so donāt try and say someone else does it for them all.
I feel like Iāll get a lot of hate for what Iāve said [especially seem as Iāve went off on a tangent] but I feel like youāre very mad that I donāt post BTS but why should I? Itās just like when you get hate for saying that you donāt like BTS or you prefer other groups? Why do you feel the need to attack? Itās okay for you to say that you dislike so and so etc but as soon as someone says they donāt like your favourites you go mad? Grow up.
Another reason I donāt necessarily post about BTS is because theyāre everywhere already. Nearly every blog posts about them so why is it such a bad thing if I donāt? Again [im making assumptions but oh well] youāre probably one of them ARMYs that thinks itās all about views, hm? Always on about them breaking records well let me tell you
NOT EVERYTHING IS ABOUT VIEWS
Just because a video has more views than someone elseās does not mean they are better nor does it mean theyāre more popular. See, a lot of ARMYs watch the videos to get records and are always STREAM STREAM STREAM while Iād rather watch it because I want to enjoy it and enjoy the music, not once does it cross my mind that āthis video needs to get 1M views in 5 minutesā or āthey need to beat _____!ā Sometimes I believe that videos do deserve more views but I will never put another group down because they have less than my favourites.
My name is āTOPBAPā as in T.O.P of BigBang and B.A.P - so, literally nothing on my blog has anything to do with BTS so why should I post about them? Lol. I know I went on a tangent but it just pisses me off that everything has to be about BTS. I will maybe, occasionally post about them but I like to post about the groups I love the most. If you have a problem with that block me or just donāt look at my account. Like I said earlier, there are plenty of accounts dedicated solely to BTS, go follow them if youāre that bothered.Ā
