[BTS] The 1st Thread - Welcome, first time with BTS?

[susiowong]

^ As Min Yoonji, I disagree with you. Only I'm terrifying. Jungkook's got nothin' on me.

[rainbow_smile]

^ Min Yoonji is sassy, but barely terrifying

This however...

Spoiler:

[susiowong]

^ CURSED PHOTO, GET IT AWAY FROM ME

[rainbow_smile]

^ you're the one who said Kook is not terrifying, I had to prove it, so it's your fault

[susiowong]

^ Whatever, fine. Jungkook is terrifying.

Spoiler:

But at least that little goblin will never be as sassy as Min Yoonji.

[rainbow_smile]

^ maybe someday, since Kook looks up to Yoongi so much hehe

But Yoonji is awesome. Almost as sassy as me

[susiowong]

The Steve Aoki x Desiigner remix of MIC Drop has been postponed. It will be released on November 24th instead of November 17th.

I mean it's probably for the best so that they can capitalize on the post-AMAs hype but--

NOOOOOOOOOOO

Almost as sassy as me

Hunny, Min Yoonji has more sass in one arm than you have in your entire body.

[rainbow_smile]

^ Ahhh I was looking forward to that remix Well, at least I'll have Red Velvet's comeback that day, I guess.

Sweety, Min Yoonji didn't roast Jungkook even once, she's not sassy enough.

[susiowong]

^ Tbh you barely even roast Jungkook either because you're so whipped. So try again.

I wonder if we'll manage to get the remix on Hot 100 too? It's obvious that's what they're aiming for, since they're releasing the song on a Friday.

[rainbow_smile]

^ Oh no, I used to be the #1 Jungkook roaster, what happened Still, I'm the queen of sass

I hope we get it to Hot 100 but i'm not very optimistic haha Didn't they also change the criteria for Hot 100, or will that kick in later?

[susiowong]

^ It will kick in later by next year, but IIRC it's only for Youtube videos? I have the changes saved on my phone so I can't check right now (lmao) but I will let you know for sure later.

I'm very cautiously optimistic we can get the remix on Hot 100. I mean if DNA can do it in less than a week, then a lit af track like MIC Drop ought to be able to, especially with the entire week to chart. And with rumors of an MV, that would really help too (if it's true). Either way, it'll be interesting to see what happens.

^ The change is that the free streaming platforms won't count anymore. For instance, only the Premium version of Spotify will count. Right now, the streams from the free one count as well apparently

How dare you expose me like that????? As if you're not as in love as I am. And tbh I was in love back then, too. So, again, what happened?

[susiowong]

^ Oh right! Actually, free streaming platforms will still count, but they'll be weighted differently now. So premium spotify will have more weight to it than free streaming.

I think nochu's just really good at thawing out our icy, cold hearts. That's why neither of us can roast him like we used to lmao.

(btw it's totally obvious you're in love. I didn't expose anything, you do it yourself.)

[rainbow_smile]

^ iirc it won't count at all

But... he still... didn't write Begin although I'm barely even salty about it anymore

(SHUT UP)

[susiowong]

^ Here's a link to the page on Billboard about streaming next year. And I'm too lazy to write so I'll just quote from the article:

"Beginning in 2018, plays occurring on paid subscription-based services (such as Amazon Music and Apple Music) or on the paid subscription tiers of hybrid paid/ad-supported platforms (such as SoundCloud and Spotify) will be given more weight in chart calculations than those plays on pure ad-supported services (such as YouTube) or on the non-paid tiers of hybrid paid/ad-supported services."

So yeah, it seems free streams will still be counted, just not as much as they used to.

ngl, I'm still a little salty about Begin. True, he might've been lacking confidence in his lyrics, but I have a feeling he was actually too busy playing video games to write them.

(No.)

[rainbow_smile]

^ Oh, you seem to be right for once :O

I do actually think it's deeper than just him being too lazy He's actually pretty hard-working... And I'm not salty anymore, wow, I'm surprised.

Also, uh, whoa. That's a lot of stuff to drop in one day. I'm disappointed all of the merch is pink, but hopefully they'll change up the colors with the next round of promotions...

[rainbow_smile]

I'm glad all the merch is pink, but on the other hand it means that I literally want to buy everything (which I can't afford). You can buy the grey phone case tho

[susiowong]

^ Look like that and the white sticker are my only options. Ah well. At least they tried.
