Generation BTS: All The Albums Generation BTS

Hello Army! We are back with the first part of the album review that let's be honest, nobody asked for, but we hope you'll still listen! If you're a baby Army and have never heard of RM by Rap Monster before because it's not most mainstream streaming platforms, you can listen to it on Soundcloud or on Youtube before you listen to our opinions on it. A worthwhile general warning for this episode is that seeing as this is from a very early era of RM, when he was a super tough hardcore rapper who had just organised a hip hop school for the vocal line and wanted to show off his knowledge, so these songs (and our episode as a result) are somewhat heavier on swearing and crass/ at times slightly vulgar language. We would therefore recommend that you do NOT listen around anyone who is particularly young or particularly sensitive to that kind of thing! We do however promise that as usual for RM, there are plenty of golden nuggets of wisdom and interesting reflections scattered across the album, so the deep dive is definitely worth it! We hope you enjoy listening :)

It's February (AND Lunar New Year) so what better time to look back on the year that has just gone by! In this episode (which, we're levelling with you guys, was meant to be the Christmas special) we talk through the stats of all the awards sections that took place throughout the episodes we released across 2023, as well as since the podcast started. Who do you think won MVP the most times overall (hint, it's not one of our biases)? We then move on to this year's BTS song draft, which is different to last year's because we have so many solo songs and albums at play. There is however still some overlap in our choices, so listen to find out who got what songs, and if you're doing so reasonably close to when this episode is released, please look out for your chance to vote for the 2023 draft winner on our Instagram stories! If you're listening way in the future, we will try to remember to update this episode description once we have a winner. :)
After the draft we once again imagine the BTS concert of our dreams based on our draft picks, and just like last year this gets very silly as we allow ourselves a bit of a break from the Chapter 2: Everyone's-in-the-Military Edition by spending some well-deserved time in Deluluville. We then round off the episode with our 2023 best song ranking and some Bangtan-themed highlights of the year, so we hope you enjoy and that it brightens up the start to your year of the Dragon!
There aren't any links this episode but if you want to ask about anything we've references please do not hesitate to get in touch :)
Thanks so much to everyone who has listened in 2023 and since! Borahae, Happy Lunar New Year and please look forward to our next album review x

Happy New Year Army! Welcome to our reaction special for the Golden album by everyone's favourite Golden Maknae Jeon Jungkook. As is the standard procedure by now for these episodes we take some time to look back on promotional content we received in the lead-up to the album's release, including some very appealing concert photos, all of the flawless performances, and a bunch of interviews where our silly-but-charming boy gets to be his silly-but-charming self. We then talk through our initial thoughts on the album overall, the best looks, content and song, our initial skip and so on, and please be warned that we do have some potentially controversial opinion's on this one... We have however tried to be fair and honest in our takes, so hopefully you will understand and/or forgive us, and more than ever we invite you to please get in touch with your opinions! What makes you love Golden? Which songs are your favourites and why? Do you agree or disagree with anything we've said? Please get in touch to let us know!
If you would like to get in touch, you can do so by emailing GenerationBTSAllTheAlbums@gmail.com, or dm us on Insta @generationbts_, X (formerly known as Twitter) @generationbts_ and TikTok @generationbts_. We've also joined YouTube @generationbts so you can follow us there too if you want!

Finally, for anyone patiently waiting for our end-of-year (read Christmas) special, which we have recorded, it should be our in the next few weeks! It's also the first one we recorded post enlistment, so we talk about our feelings on that as well :'( Make sure you get all updates by subscribing and following our social media (Instagram mainly)!
Borahae and ApoBangpo! x

Merry Christmas Army and we wish you all a very Happy New Year! We've finally finished Dark & Wild! A project six(ish) months in the making has finally come to an end, just in time for the last days of 2023. Praise the merciful Namjesus during this most wonderful time of the year!
In this episode we discuss the last four songs on the album, which includes some hot takes on the merits of starting a song with Shoobidoobababa, RM's baseless confidence as exemplified by his 'teenie weenie mini, you're a bikini and martini' rap, the trials and tribulations of being an idol in your second year (aka a sophomore/so4more), and whether any of this makes any sense. It is also time to hand out some awards for this very long album, and while we disagreed a lot, we did agree to take the opportunity to challenge ourselves to cut a few more songs than normal! Kristine is sentimental, Leanne is unhappy about it, and Natasha is a bit in her feels as well, so please listen to find out why :)
Please keep in mind also that we recorded this a while ago, so some of the enlistment references aren't quite up to date, but we've recorded some more recent thoughts and hope to get that out soon. Apologies also for some parts of the recording being a bit patchy, there was quite a lot of background noise where Natasha was especially, but we have recently switched recording software to hopefully minimise the amount of issues and the amount of time it takes to edit (please cross your fingers!) and thanks for bearing with us!

Finally, for anyone who has read this far we have recorded a Golden reaction and End of Year Special, and they should hopefully be out shortly if the new software performs as expected, but we decided to prioritise getting this out first.

Borahae and hope you're having an excellent festive season! Stream Closer than This! x

Army! The wait is over, Dark & Wild part two is finally ready for you to listen and enjoy. We do apologise for the delay, if you have been following our Instagram you will know that we hosted our very first live event the other week and that took up a lot of time that we would have otherwise spent editing. If you came to the event, thank you very much and we hope you had an excellent time! We will be looking to hopefully do more events in 2024, so please follow our socials for all the updates. :)
Anyway, in this second instalment of our review of Dark & Wild we discuss quite a big chunk of what is a very long album, full of some deep and reflected songs, some super cool anti-hater songs, some cute songs and some songs that definitely belong in the 'random' bracket of the BTS discography. Through these songs we hear from the rap line about what drew them to the hip hop way of life, about writing songs about not being able to write songs and about making bed waves by kicking your blanket after having said something stupid to the person you like. The girl who ignores them (aka the central relationship/theme of the album), comes up only once in these seven (!) songs, but that does mean that there's time for some choice words about phones, as they are noisy and distracting when you're having a meal and interrupt first kisses, and iPhones in particular make the haters think they're cooler than they are. If you absolutely must have a phone however, please make sure follow the wise words of Min Yoongi and stick to; 'no iPhone, only Samsung'.

We've also joined YouTube @generationbts so you can follow us there too if you want!

Finally, for anyone who has read this far we hope to get part three ready asap, but we may need to make time for a Golden reaction and Christmas special in between.

Friends, listeners, Army, the moment has finally arrived. Please behold the first instalment of our review of Dark & Wild! As you will understand from the intro we actually recorded this ages ago, but unfortunately solo albums and editing issues got in the way of its release, BUT that does mean we get to tell you our opinions on Jungkook's Seven just in time for the release of Golden, so that feels timely. We will of course also be trying to fit in a Golden reaction episode in the next few weeks but we'll have to see if it comes between the Dark & Wild parts or not...
Anyway, in this one we also cover the first three songs of Dark & Wild, and discuss unrequited or one-sided angsty teenage love, strange intro music, as well as some very dramatic and some potentially mildly problematic lyrics. We also take time to go over the worst of the worst in terms of styling and hairdos across the MVs and performances for Danger, and some slightly weird/cute moments (depending on your take) in the MV and dance practices for War of Hormone. Who had the worst hairdo in Danger? Who was the best cosplayer in the Halloween War of Hormone dance practice? Listen to find out our takes!
If you want to let us know your thoughts on the above or you want to get in touch for any other reason, you can do so by emailing GenerationBTSAllTheAlbums@gmail.com, or dm us on Insta @generationbts_, Twitter @generationbts_ and TikTok @generationbts_.
