Sounds like Coldplay and BTS have been up to something together. It could be something for the Brits but you never know. Chris Martin's reaction to being asked about BTS is hilarious.

Sounds like an EDM track and the spoilers sort of have a rave vibe, so maybe that's where the 90's vibe comes from.

Saw on an instagram post from Colombia Records head of Urban radio promotion that they are promoting Butter at 5 different radio formats as well as every major broadcast company in America. If Butter gets good airplay on 5 radio formats along with the BTS meal at McDonalds and the kind of sales BTS always gets it's going to be even bigger than Dynamite. Here is the post: http://instagram.com/p/COmlbEPnmup

They debuted in 2013 as a hip hop group and 3 of the 7 members are rappers/producers. Some of the biggest BTS stans are male rap fans. One of my favorite things to do is go on youtube and watch men react to BTS for the first time and end up shook, lol. Here ya go:

At this point I really don't know what the song is gonna be. The pics went from cute, colorful summer bop, to som pop retro vibe to "we are robbing a casino during a party"?

I think it's going to be a big upbeat EDM/synth dance/club track with some insane choreography and rap verses. The only artist with the kind of sound I keep coming back to is Pitbull.

This looks like a whole ass comeback Whoa, even McDonald's is doing comeback level promotions for the BTS Meal? HYBE is really upping it's game in 2021. They're doing great with Enhypen. They are going even bigger with the BTS Butter promo than they did with Dynamite. The TXT's Concept trailer from yesterday that looked like a cross between an action movie and fantasy video game trailer and was amazing. Now their collab with McDonalds is turning into a second comeback?

A second comeback??? What are they coming back from???? They are a highly promoted boyband who can dance and sing. Much like NSYNC, BACKSTREET BOYS, NEW EDITION etc etc???? What is so great? Is it different because their Korean???? I don't get this fascination? Is it because they wear makeup and this generation is all about being themselves? BTW, I'm not trying to be rude but their a boyband we have seen them all before. What's the deal??? Personally I find nothing different about them or their music then many boybands who I have seen before.... lol

Don't compare white boybands who never touched their pen to write anything and never sang anything other than catchy love songs in their lives do group of poc who write about depression, loving themself, societal pressure, school problems, unhealthy relationships and can also make a music that shake ass. Don't compare their struggles, the racism they faced, the discrimination and xenophobia. Why are you mentioning their makeup? Are you afraid you will find them attractive?

A second comeback??? What are they coming back from?? “comeback” is a term that refers to new eras in k-pop. It means something different in western pop. It’s similar to how focus singles from albums here are referred to as “title tracks” there. Is it because they wear makeup and this generation is all about being themselves?

BTW, I'm not trying to be rude but their a boyband we have seen them all before. What's the deal??? Personally I find nothing different about them or their music then many boybands who I have seen before.... lol A "comeback" just means releasing new music. Prior to a new release there is a promotion schedule where teasers are released. McDonalds is doing a BTS Meal promo and they are using that same "comeback" type of schedule leading up to the release of the meal. All performers wear make up when performing, in videos, in photos on tv, etc. Male Kpop idols are just comfortable enough with themselves to rock eye make up and tinted chap stick. I don't even notice the make up at this point. If you truly, honestly and genuinely want to understand why BTS is so popular and adored you have to set aside any preconceived notions and stereotypes about what you think they are and be open minded. Virtually everyone I have seen give them a true chance ended up liking not only their music but their message, who they are, etc. At the very least, people end up truly respecting them. There are a few great introduction videos on BTS. This is one that goes into their history, how they were formed and a bit about each member. Their story is really fascinating. And they are so much more than a boy band.

Me saying one sentense about them being korean, while talking about their songwriting, lyricism, artistry in general and you choosed to be selectively blind and pick one thing that fit your narrative. Not every song has good songwriting. This goes for BTS and any other boy band One thing that I really appreciate about BTS's songwriting is how they incorporate things most don't. For instance, their Map of The Soul series lyrics were strongly influenced by Carl Jung's psychological theories. And Spring Day was written about the Sewol Ferry tragedy where hundreds of South Korean teenagers died. The references in the lyrics of that song show the thought and effort they put into their songwriting. BTS did not take part in the writing of Dynamite. I think this is why a lot of people don't realize just how talented they are as writers/producers. The lyrics of Dynamite are very surface level, which is really not the norm for BTS. But again, Dynamite was intended as a song to cheer people up from COVID. It wasn't supposed to be heavy and serious. Here is a video explaining the meaning of the Spring Day lyrics/video. This song is still on Korean charts after 4 years.

They better hope it’s this good. If it’s not an instant hit, the reaction is going to be severely negative. It’s the risk you take with this sort of promotion.

I like BTS but y’all talk about them like they’re Björk People keep treating them like cute, silly boyband that is manifactured and has no imput in their work. Keep comparing them to BSB, N sync or The beatles when all those bands didn't faced even 1% of what BTS had to face. You are saying I keep using racism and they race but even yesterday when Haim won BRITs instead of BTS and western stans pretended to be army to make horrible rape jokes about the girls to set them up and then there was hundreds of comments calling them dog eaters, ching chongs and even worse. And it's every day like this. And then they preach Stop Asian hate. But not when it's BTS. I said before, I don't care if someone don't like them. I don't like most of the people you all stan but I'm not going around being ignorant and hateful. You literally have video lives with them explaining their writing process, the meaning behind every song and all that. You were behaving like normal people towards them (with ocassional remarks about chart manipulation) for sone time but know when Butter is almost out you act up again. Feeling threatened?

Feeling threatened? ok miss combative I like them but the praise is heavy-handed at times. They’re not shallow like everyone says but they aren’t the saviors of modern music and every time someone says anything remotely negatively, someone writes an essay and links lyrical analysis videos (which doesn’t help your case, it just makes you look heavy-handed). I get that it’s hard for people to dump on your fave, as it’s clear they mean a lot to you, but gosh I’m lucky Ellie Goulding is my fave, she hasn’t charted for years Edit: oh my god you’re responding to things I never said in that comment. sure, I can be cynical regarding them, but I’m more positive than most of the users on this site (see my ranking of Blue & Grey in the almost 10 rate by kimberly 😭). Yeah, western stans are gross, we all know this (see: Barbz) and BTS deals w a lot of racism. I didn’t say otherwise, I just- ugh. If anyone misses the drama of Camila Cabello threads, look no further
