plus, they signed a new 7 yr contract extension last year AND are significant label shareholders thanks to the BH IPO. They’re not going anywhere.

Congrats to all who made a strong showing on the year end lists. Huge accomplishment for all the artists!

This mention is part of an interview w/ BTS just posted up by the Recording Academy / Grammys on their official You Tube channel.

So there’s that…

They mentioned they are most excited to see: Beyonce, Post, Harry, Taylor & DaBaby.

??? I wasn’t aware anyone was fighting.

I see plenty of long essays here and enjoy reading all the ones on the artists & subjects that interest me. Different strokes… glad people share their thoughts, opinions & info.

I do skip the haters tho, glad there are more diverse music lovers here than haters.

Yeah I did, along w/ 23M other stans.  That & chatting w/ other ARMYs, copying up his PL & listening to him sing. I’m a nurse & my schedule is wack so I’m many times up when they do a VLive which is US wee morning hours.

Yeah it was JK, unexpected on VLive. It was steady over 20M viewers, the highest I saw on the counter was 23M. All he did was eat salad, acknowledge some comments that I am sure were flying by & sing along off & on to a playlist he had playing in the room he was in. AND, ARMYs were in there for over an hour & a half. Their live streams are…[Read more]

I have a large collection. (3000+ Lps & &7″) My family owned a record store when I was growing up so I was destined to inherit the passion. 200+ of those are just David Bowie related: official releases, RSD editions, picture discs & Russian bootlegs. I also have 100+ Third Man Releases. I play them all & prefer vinyl. The only CD editions I…[Read more]

I too wonder what they will cover!?! Whatever it is will be great, I LOVE all their individual SoundCloud covers & impromptu times on VLive & such when someone just busts out a random cover tune. They have really diverse taste and can really do any song justice. / I was hoping for an hour but 30 mins is still good, the Tiny Desk was 15 minutes and…[Read more]

The MTV Unplugged performance will be absolute fire! I CAN’T WAIT!!

As for BE Promo, that’s a good question. I feel like we are now in the get ARMY hyped & feeling extra loved stage, with their gifts of the NOTES all throughout last week & now w/ our BTS for ARMY curated rooms. Today was Yoongi’s curated ARMY room so I assume we will get one from…[Read more]

I watched it over the weekend. It’s heartbreaking. She HAS been truly framed & reduced to a commodity by those pulling the strings. This woman deserves SO much better. She is clearly competent enough to at the very least request her father’s removal as Conservator & appoint someone else. A reasonable request, basic human rights, that she requested…[Read more]

Why don’t you take your own advice & stop clapping back then, use your OWN Ignore feature.  Jesus. Yes, I invoked Jesus, frankly just for the hell of it. I pretty much only read here off & on & over a couple of accounts & many years only used the Ignore feature for a few real racists, haters, trolls & the clinically passive aggressive.

You…[Read more]

They certainly look to be by the awarding entity.

I know they’ve won over 300 globally, about 50+ of those are Daesangs which is an insane accomplishment. Can’t believe we’re getting an MTV Unplugged not to mention whatever that cryptic teaser was they dropped this morning. Lot’s going on in our Bangtan sphere, I’m ecstatic.

For what it’s worth Holly I harbor no ill will toward you. This is because I deeply pity you. It’s obvious that assuming you’re not some basement based troll that you just don’t get out much, live life, experience what this world has to offer. I understand Bible guilt, I was raised Catholic, we invented guilt.  I feel so sorry for you that as…[Read more]

Look out BB, we are SO ready to crush some goals.

…from your mouth to God’s ears. The sheer FIRE of it all.

I’m manifesting Dis-ease, thinking it will be either that or Telepathy.

…and finally HERE IT COMES. BTS BE Essential edition. Pre-Order starts later today, release date 2/19. The verbage used in the press release hints at the addition of new songs mvs etc. SO EXCITED. Full press release on Weverse and all over the bird app NOW. Let’s go ARMY!

Gaga looked & sounded incredible. All the performances were good, she was exceptional.

Allow me to stretch Deserve to Deserved.

David Bowie. While nominated many times later in his career he was overall ignored by the Grammys. One of the most influential and important artists in the history of pop & alternative music over literal decades he deserved SO. MUCH. MORE.

When artists are decidedly different this seems to be what many…[Read more]

David Bowie / Lodger

Calexico / Spiritoso
