At the end of the day, the quality & impact of music isn't determined by how many GRAMMYs an artist gets.
#BTS
may have deserved a Pop nom, but they certainly don't NEED one to validate the their success. So, moving on!

To those attempting to knock
#JIMIN
's No. 1 Hot 100 accomplishment by pointing out he had no radio, do not you find it odd that one of the most popular members of the world's biggest boy band got no airplay despite releasing a perfectly digestible pop song w/ an English version?
"As for ARMYs, they'll brush this loss off and channel their anger into trying with all their might to win
#BTS
the countless other fan-voted awards they're up for this year."

#PCAs
"With over 160 production credits to his name, it's hard to find a BTS song that
#RM
hasn't touched. And when he's not writing and producing for the group, he stays busy working on solo music or music for other artists..."
#BTS
@BTS_twt
Prey tell, what's "manipulative" about fans buying a lot of BTS' music? It's ARMY's money being exchanged directly 4 music.
Where is this ire over songs that get played 3Xs/hour on radio? U can find tweets complaining about that too, but they're not legitimized in cover stories.
Weird to see
#BTS
left out of main
#VMAs
categories. Not even a Best Pop nod? How?
Their '18-'19 accomplishments speak for themselves (loud & clear) when you stack them up next to artists who snagged noms in main categories.
As ARMYs dig deeper into the history behind Puff Daddy and Faith Evans' "I'll Be Missing You," I'd like to add a little-discussed aspect: the bridge, sung brilliantly by
#Jimin
and
#V
, is an interpolation of a classic church hymn called "I'll Fly Away."
#BTS
@BTS_twt
I'm open to critiques of kpop, but im growing weary of the lazy critique that
#BTS
"lip syncs," especially when it comes to their
#BTSxSNL
performance. As someone with some background in music, it is VERY clear that those boys are 100% singing live...
He SHOULD have gotten radio, yet he didn't. The fact that you'd rather knock him for reaching this milestone through sales and streams than ask why an artist of his caliber still is not getting radio says more about you than him.
Trump: They have to show total respect for our flag and our country.
The Constitution: No they don't. They really don't... AND IT'S NOT ABOUT THE FLAG.

I won't be subtle about it:
#JIMIN
brings so much joy into my life, and I don't even know him. So I can only imagine what he means to

If anything proves Meghan and Harry were telling the truth about the Royals' symbiotic relationship with the British press, it's their silence around Jeremy Clarkson's oped about

. It should be SO EASY to condemn that article, so why haven't they?
In an age where top artists' album sales are heavily dependent on bundling and YouTube views are legally bought, a boy band from Korea is the first act to surpass 4 million in album sales in 2019 w/o resorting to ~any~ of that.
#BTS
did that, y'all.

@BTS_twt
This album

is about to drop... He is not messing around. Every day a new Grammy-nominated/winning producer signing on to be involved... The world is not prepared. 😭

BH Editors: "Is an 8-hour DVD overkill? Will ARMYs actually watch this?"
ARMYs: *in quarantine, watching "ON" for the 12,000th time* "Don't you DARE cut one second from that DVD."

The story behind how

ultimately chose "Blueberry Eyes" as their next collab is so interesting, and a testament to their individual artistry — not to mention their epic teamwork!

With the amount of emotional abuse Prince Harry endured throughout his life, the fact he's only speaking out about it now is a testament to how much he loves his family & wanted to protect them. He's a better person than me because I would not have kept quiet.

def saw Jimin trending over the weekend and made sure he was framed TF up for his closeup.

On a separate note, I can't stress enough how insidery this whole conversation is. The general public is not tripping over BTS' chart successes. They generally don't care about the BB charts. And that's arguably why BTS' fanbase is so powerful. They are informed and engaged.

List of things BTS invented: English, cars, family, being hot while whistling, being hot while driving, being hot while gazing longingly out a Hyundai Palisade window — TBC.

A leading voice in Jungian psychology spoke at length about the complex themes
#BTS
are touching on w/
#MapOfTheSoul
& gave them props (well, the 75-year-old-esteemed-doctor version of "props") for doing it well. Impressive = understatement. 👏

I never know what to expect when I press play on a

by
#JIMIN
(for obvious biased reasons), but I'm curious what yours are, ARMY! Let me know! And while you're at it, explain to me how so much talent can be contained in one band? HOW?
@BTS_twt
At this point, I really think Twitter had to filter out
#JIMIN
's name because if they didn't, he'd literally trend No. 1 every day just for breathing.
Just a reminder I haven't forgotten that
@Disney
needs to get
#JIMIN
involved in the "Little Mermaid" soundtrack in and film a music video where he's giving Prince Eric fits and looks. 👀👀👀
To anyone who thought the "BTS failed to win a Grammy" headline was brilliant, you should know: Artists can't "fail" at something they have no control over.
#BTS
made history tonight. We won, y'all. They won.

"One glad morning, when this life is over, I know... I'll see your face."
I prayed
#Jimin
would sing this line and I'm so glad it came to fruition! His angelic range is unmatched!
#BTS
@BTS_twt
"When it comes to
#JIMIN
's solo songs, fans love them so much, they hope he considers dropping a full album someday... After all, apart from his mind-blowing dance skills, Jimin's vocal range and color are truly one of a kind."
#BTS
@BTS_twt
"Dear America, thank u 4 embracing, loving, & accepting us — 7 boys from Korea who sing in Korean, hav different looks, & speak different languages. U teach us music transcends language."
So blessed I witnessed this live.
