BTS Army celebrating Rap Monster’s birthday with #HappyBirthdayNamjoon

Rap Monster birthday BTS

Namjoon, widely known as Rap Monster (RM), is celebrating his 27th birthday today as BTS Army has flooded the star with best wishes and prayers on his big day.

The famed rapper from South Korea was the first one to be selected into the seven-member group and has led them since. Namjoon was originated with the stage name Rap Monster in 2017, 5 years after he had started his career.

#HappyBirthdayNamjoon is trending all over Twitter as his lovers and the fanbase is extending sweet and heartfelt wishes for him.

Check out how the BTS Army is reacting:

Earlier in 2017, through a statement, Namjoon said that he was formally changing his name to RM as ‘Rap Monster’ did not align with the music he wanted to create.

In a letter posted in BTS’ official fan cafe, RM wrote, “I’ve been promoting under the name Rap Monster for about five years, since the end of 2012. It was a stage name that I naturally came to be called among our company family members and my members, after a line in a song I’d made as a trainee, and I think I became very fond of it. But once I started promoting, the name ‘BTS’s Rap Monster’ was a bit long, and I’ve become keenly aware of the fact that it’s become different from [what I want] to put at the front of the music I’ve made for the past five years, and the music I want to share in the future.”

At some point, I started introducing myself as Rapmon or RM, rather than the full name Rap Monster. So I’d like to change the name I use for promotions to ‘RM,’ which I think is more in accordance with the music I’m aiming for and also has a wider spectrum. Since I’ve already released some music and mixtapes as RM, I think that some fans will have already guessed this. I thought about this carefully for a long while, because I want to make music for a long time in the future with an unrestricted and open mind and view,” he added.

The seven-member BTS group consists of RM, V, Suga, J-Hope, Jungkook, Park Ji-min and Jin.

BTS: Jungkook shares thoughtful voice message ahead of BE (Essential Edition)

Jungkook

There are just a few days left for the release of ‘BE (Essential Edition)’. Almost every day BTS members have been sharing new content since the month began. The ARMY room illustration was started with Suga, then other group members including the leader RM made some addition to it. Now, it is time for Jungkook to modify the ideas to the room.

Jungkook said in a voice message,

“Do you remember how ‘Jungkook’s room’ was filled with all kinds of speakers? I thought ARMY’s room definitely needs a set of speakers to give the best music we can. A speaker can fill the whole room with music. It can even amplify your emotions. Why don’t you listen to music with this kind of speaker and really get in touch with your emotions? A cheerful song can make you even happier, or when you are feeling down you can choose a bring the up-tempo song to send those blues away or maybe go for a darker and slower song to face those emotions head-on. What song is playing on these speakers in your imagination?”

He further added,

“When we have spent some much time in our rooms these days, things can start feeling boring and repetitive. So I thought I’d put a fishbowl in ARMY’s room. A spread of pebbles or a few strands of ocean plants can really change how a fishbowl feels. I thought you could have fun in your room decorating your fishbowl however you like it. I also brought a feisty little friend, quiet but always on the move. Think of this friend as to me. Talk, feed, care for and cherish this friend, who thrives on your love.”

Jungkook in the recent post added speakers and a fishbowl in the ARMY’s room as he wanted to add more positive energy and liveliness to it. Jungkook wants his ARMY to have a peaceful yet lively environment in their room so that they can enjoy music peacefully.

Earlier in November 2020 ahead of the ‘BE’ release, the septet had released fascinating photos highlighting their personalities through it.
