"is that what angels look like?"

I really wish i could be as chill and fun when discussing jongin but the reality is the origins of my kpop journey never called for that. I only liked eggsos music for a very short period of my life and once I heard the demo tracks that ended. For some reason knowing they didnt make their hits or even contribute past one line or two just makes me feel icky. I never liked the others past the bullying years of 2012 to 2016. I also cut off kji when I felt like he was also very inauthentic. I returned out of curiosity for my research of the entertainment industry. Most artists in korea act like they are in some hybrid between the military and a gang. I just cant take it seriously. Its a hybrid between american hollywood and a dictatorship. The industry still rubs me the wrong way as apparently child protection laws and human rights in south korea are a suggestion.

In the end I comment on jongin 1 because i still do see some ...potential is the wrong word ...life maybe. He seems to have more of a soul than most in the industry. So I still check for him. Yet I wont lie or be fake. His recent projects have been god awful. Sm has ran him into the ground and dont seem like they will be stopping anytime soon. He is the most obvious case of "industry mistreatment programming" that I have ever seen. I still cringe at times seeing the toll the industry has taken on him.

I do however understand many fans are either very quiet because they just want to enjoy and relax. And others want community and friendship.

I get it. That was never my intention. I have a lot of perspectives on jongin and his career and I feel like sometimes I should keep them to myself..but then other times I feel like thats very unfair.

Online their are people that write very objectifying, dirty vile things about him but that is okay cause they are being quirky...

But if you talk about sprituality, souls, diets, genetics, chi magic, face yoga, spritual contracts ect or connecting things to the occult thats too far.

No its not. The lies are too far.

I just don't vibe with the lies anymore. And what is going on all over the internet about him the group, kpop and the entire entertainment industry is a lie.

So in my opinion as long as I have evidence for what Im saying anybody can choose whether or not they want to read or believe what Im saying. But the dumb fake arguements about literally nothing. Its a distraction. They plan things out for people to argue over so nobody every holds the company or artists or infrastructure accounatble. I cant just waste time like that anymore. I will write and make content from my perspective. Because there is nothing wrong with the truth. 99 percent of whats on the net about exo and jongin is a lie. I just cant anymore. They really take advantage of the language gap. So many people literally lying about things. Almost nothing they say is true.

I think its only fair to be transparent. I thought about creating another blog to post that stuff on but again that would just be more secrecy. There is no point. But I understand most people dont like that so at this point its just best I be honest. I like being chill but with kpop my conspiracy and investigative journalism side cant rest. I will post things of that nature from now on.

Its not all completely serious some things are simply opinions and research but those things help understand the larger picture.

I can only be so real on here cause its tumblr. The problem isnt just her its him too. Actually its mostly him. He was taught by quite a few different choreographers none all that good believe me. But at this point he is winding down in his ability to dance well at all. He is really bad now, I tried to explain this to a team Kai person but they dont understand. They are both the same height so you can see both of their shortcomings way easier. People didnt complain cause tita is shorter and was able to let him play up the masculine dominant role more. In reality when I watched both versions he is the main issue. She has structual problems as well but their teacher who taught them both has so many issues himself and he passed it along to both of them.

Adult Swim

Saw a comment on twitter about kai possibly outgrowing bada lee as a choreographer (he was out dancing her in a clip) but the thing about choreography is you make it your own and kai is a DANCER. Not a person that follows choreography to a T; he WILL add his own spin to things that make it his. So it's not that she's behind, he's doing his own thing with the choreography she's giving him.

Talent is elevating what you're given, making it your own and leveling it. Kai does that. IDG ppl tryna discredit her...

is he racist? No not in the traditional sense but he has had an idealized fetish for black aesthetic culture since a young age. But other peoples perception of what he does should not concern you. If people from black society interpret what he did as racist that is their right. Its a complex topic to be handled with care not a sassy response of oh sm made him do it. I will not just accept that foolish behavior. Let his behavior be interpreted by whoever is interpreting it. The tacky lawyer defense just makes black people feel more offended and angry. I just wish everyone would allow people to have their own opinion about art without getting over emotional. Especially if no one is being direspectful. Everyone has the right to their own opinion. Telling others to just leave and shut up is not a mature response.

Less day 10 days after this post it was revealed kai actually asked for the dreads and at times did his own hair and even said what method he used. He was worried people wouldnt like it and was pleased to find most people did. He meant in korea not the west. Kai later said in an interview when he does something people dont like he simply blames s.m.

Its common sense someone who's favorite artists have black hairstyles would also want to mimick that. But these sick people are so obsessed with celebs being perfect they come up with fantastical scenarios to make the person look innocent. He wanted the hairstyles. It is much more difficult and time consuming to do his hair like that. S.m as a business is cheap why would they push for something that would take more time and supplies. Its not logical. He likes to get into character. Also he reposted the picture of him with dreads on his instagram twice. Just that alone wasnt forced. He also told ravi he was copying him because ravi had dreadlocks at the time too. This is all online.

He also braided his own hair for wolf he knows how to braid. Which is fine its a free world, but the lies in fandoms disgust me. I am so sick of the lies and false narratives.

To all of the people who are saying Kai could’ve said no to the dreads: 

DO YA’LL KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT SM ENTERTAINMENT????

OF COURSE HE COULDN’T “SAY NO” IT’S NOT HIS FUCKING DECISION

HE SAID THAT HE HATED THE CORNROWS DURING WOLF-ERA AND FELT UNCOMFORTABLE WEARING THEM. 

DID SM LISTEN TO HIM??- HELL TO THE NO

SO WHAT MAKES YOU THINK ANYTHING HE SAYS REGARDING HIS HAIR WILL MAKE SM LISTEN TO HIM THIS TIME??

OH SEHUN HIMSELF SAID THAT THE STYLISTS NORMALLY DO NOT LET HIM DYE HIS HAIR THE COLOR HE WANTS TO (it was in an old interview but its relevant now). 

SM hair stylists are obviously extremely colorist and gave Jongin that hairstyle for an unfortunate reason that is wrong on so may fucking levels.(and if u don’t know the reason thn pls message me)

But Jongin can’t do anything but work with it because its not like he’s in any authority to disagree with it, and he gets paid for it either way.

Like do y'all think Exo would srsly be out here preforming in bright pink suits and elf costumes if they wanted to?? Ya’ll think Byun Baekhyun wants to be walking around with a striped mullet? No grown man wants to do that, but they HAVE TO CUZ IT’S SM. 

SM is a notoriously Strict and awful company, and they have prohibited idols from having a say on numerous things. If you want to hate on someone, hate on SM and their warped and racist/colorist ideologies.

We all know that Jongin of ALL Kpop Idols is NOT racist or colorist– he has experienced that same discrimination against himself firsthand ever since his debut, and has demonstrated time and time again that he is in fact not ignorant.

But anyways, I’m tired of this bs against kai. Just cause y'all hate exo and r threatened or some other dumb shit, doesn’t mean u should be attacking jongin or making things up about what he can and can’t do, when your not even an exo stan in the first place. 

LIKE, YA’LL REALLY NEED TO THINK WITH YOUR BRAINS ONCE IN A WHILE

(and yes I’m a black exo-l btw so trust me ik the pain)

okay last stretch

1.so the tyla choreographer check I was right

2. Gas pedal shake it lyrics for adult swim

3. He was in l.a to film. And a few other places.

Dancing to not like us is the last hint other than a possible producer in common the only relation I can think of is maybe choreographer or director..or

Black dancers

In the hood.

Or...afrocentric.

So they all did connect most were red herrings but the song choices were important he even did not like us again on a show so I'm thinking....is gonna be any or some or all of these things.

2 Pegasus I think is ark of cov. So...ehh idk

At this point it depends on the particular interpretation.

I almost never predict albums cause it's so boring but this one was at the right time and I was still a bit interested. I still disagree with the rollout it sucked but it's sm. They just never do anything right. It's kinda sad at this point they don't know what to do..anyways. I feel like there should be...maybe a drama attached that's the only thing I think would go well with this big of an album. At this point its more cinema than musical

It's time already align already

So funny that I was right even though I never know for sure but I do because I'm awesome and a great guesser like always. Very intuitive.

So I was mostly correct not only did he go for an island beyonce baby boy type theme for adult swim he also used a girl that looks very similar to fkj twigs he still has her album on his shelf that's the only album in his entire house he keeps visible almost every single time he does a live in his office.

Like he never does that for anything else, except legos.

So yeah not surprised her mary magdelene album really affected him in a super deep way.

Now I remember when I ranted and said he needs to leave that lame music alone and just do afrobeats girl we got it

Like let's go finally.

It was making me so eep seeing the lame 2003 hip hop and off white pop songs like no, just no. Domino is a disgrace to music and I'll never support it. His goms are soo lame even the blk ones they have no taste they just accept whatever he does cause they are desperate and super duper thirsty. He gets ideas from movies and other people's music videos.

Like I been knew this would be afrobeats no 1 he was obsessed with black is king, 2 it's whats hot rn and sm approves of things that are already popular and 3 he's bla-jacent of course he'd go for what's easiest.

Anyway. So now before the album I want to list all that I think that should happen because I'm certain it's not done yet so things are still malleable

So firstly they should have a black cast in the music video and latino and southeast asian. Honestly it's time for him to have a diverse theme for once, like it just needs to happen like firstly he's doing afrobeats and any lack of authenticity will not be well received secondly the adult swim was great like it could be a whole drama

I love old film styles like this. I know it's to much to ask but imagine a lifetime esque movie from his childhood to adulthood to pair with this album like that would be perfect.

Okay they need to have a companion drama inside the music video

I'm thinking a one to 2 minute talking scene with whatever girl or guy or whatever he is talking to in the video, doesn't have to be female just we need a cast and something real. Almost like a skit so that we know the music video is about something more than just selling records it needs to tell a story.

Thriller was 10 minutes and it changed music videos and pop music. He needs to do something like that. Or even better like a mini web drama to pair with the album I'm hoping they do that or hey even a web comic. Like just something to continue the story so we can have some variety.

Like some behind the scenes for adult swim, maybe a few talking scenes and learning the situation and culture.

I also think he should pair this comeback with a movie or a drama.

So for the music video I'm hoping it's extremely diverse both in style dress, cast and theme. I think we can take everything a step farther he's obsessed with beyonce so clearly he's going for the alien superstar thing which is fine but I think he should branch out and go the extra mile. A real duet, or even like a interpretive dance something different.

Also they can have a unique or original setting like maybe an abandoned mall, or a dessert storm, or a mexican corner for a street dance scene. Just something new fresh and hot, no more cold dead boring techno oriental nonsense. It worked in 2020 when standards were deceased for art but now he needs light in his work real light not just green screens.

We need at least 4 to 5 afrobeats

the rest can be like journals type songs it doesn't have to be heavy it can be light rnb. But no more white boy pop he just can't carry that properly.

so examples

girl like I want DIVERSITEA

THE SM BOTS CAN TAKE THESE CONCEPTS TO USE FOR THE ALBUM i'LL ALLOW IT

Like I'm getting scenic, tropical beach, like 1960s film roll

and for him I mean for outfits I think if you're doing afrobeats it's either 1950s upstyle or....alternative tribal wear

ahh imagine an opening shot like this

I know it's supposed to be techno according to the photos but..I don't want that and he already wore an outfit very similar to beyonce's shimmy shimmy outfit so I'm just gonna shoot for the stars

sheer top

heck just do extensions Idk

maybe I'm wanting too much to recreate my favorite old jungle book film but idc I hope it's something like that

ooh and it's time he should get a wavy perm look

this hair is SOO good I think this would perfectly balance out his features

and hmm

also this type of album cover

also

or what about a baby pic like zyn or ama

idk I just want a mini film, maybe some aquatic ape theory idk, just something very diverse and interesting.

also since its multiverse they can add in art to the photos

also the futuristic heavenly thing is becoming more common

but really I would love a comic or webtoon to go with the album

also in ahs and supernatural they had cgi wings

maybe try that so they are more lifelike the clip ons are a bit iffy

they can also be artistic and put gold paint on

It's been years I want high high high art

the literal highest, I don't want to be disappointed.

but also ghetto and ratchet, like all at the same time. I just hope it can encompass all these things.

man my mind.

This is a bit wild but like........the previous albums I didn't put much out there but what I did put out happened so maybe just go insane and shoot for the stars and land on the moon. A feature would be nice to, like maybe someone like ama lou or another low key but respectable indie artist it would bring it up a notch and make it so different from what other artist in his field do, it's the type of thing that gets attention from outside traditional fandom circles.

Adult Swim Analysis; Ancient vampire cult modernizes itself pt 2

I believe Kai in Adult swim and potentially in all of exo's content is in some way a vampiric entity who seems to be obsessed with running a sort of religious cult with followers who dance with him and worship him.

Anyway to me the analysis kind of proved itself halfway through this is definitely what it is about

Like...it's just kind of right there.

Cause honestly I noticed nobody was analyzing, they were simply seeing it as oh Kim Jongin who plays Kai of Exo is doing a music video and he's coming back from the military and he's working so hard, just like and watch it. Which is exactly what they want people to focus on.

It seems like the real message of the music video has been completely ignored do to a focus on "real world events"

In Adult swim we are seeing Kai lead another cult which is something he seemed to have left behind thousands of years ago during peaches. But apparently not.

Towards the end he seems to be doing some sort of indigenous dance, it looks like a spirit dance native americans used to perform while he is surrounded by his cult members.

The Gender Bender

On this poster which is shown multiple times, it is expressing the belief that gender expression and identity and romance have nothing to do with one another. Which I agree. It's basically saying you cannot possibly figure someone out by knowing who they have or haven't slept with. Or figure out someone's orientation by the clothes they wear.

In the music video he is seen being close with guys, putting his arm around them, hugging and sitting very close. Yet he dances with a woman with whom he has some type of serious connection to. All while he wears a crop top. With the crop top he is wearing a durag which is seen as more masculine attire. There is every race present and yet for some reason they are all okay with him being in charge of them and they are okay with following his lead. Meaning he isn't simply a guy hosting this party, these people wakeup and end the night at a pool building so clearly this is some type of coven or something.

The other members seem to barely know how to dance and somewhat just shimmy a bit and there is a few scenes where you can see Kai trying to teach them how to dance but by the end no one does anything more than shuffle they don't even attempt to do the dance he does. Which they easily could of gotten background dancers to do, but they did not want to because that isn't the theme

These aren't the old followers who followed him throughout the ages but new followers who he has to teach just like children, they all look to him for guidance and seem not to know anything.

But like I said, with the hypnosis necklace is that just because they are all stupid or are they hypnotizied

Is the cult religious, do they believe he is an angel or a fallen angel. One believer is wearing a cross

then we see a kid with a fish

he begins tapping on the tank disturbing the fish

most likely a metaphor because Kai notices

It could be that Kai is the fish in the tank who must return to the water or the pool for some reason.

I suppose it could be a reference to the little mermaid or finding nemo, needing to get back to the ocean but instead he returns to the pool.

the ending is ominious and he ends up in an empty pool alone pointing to the nights sky

perhaps showing how he is bound to the earth after becoming a fallen angel and he's somehow confined to the water. Just like all his teasers his entire career have been water based.

I suppose this could also be a shared living dormitory

it says community and F normal. Which means they could all be each others found family.

okay I'm tired now but I loved this. I really think this could be a mini drama if they have the footage, send it to me I will edit it for them I promise, 30 bucks an hour. But no really I love this concept and idea and it reminds me of something I'd binge watch on netflix or hulu.

Fav moments the duets of course but also towards the end when they were all dancing in the mosh pit well he was dancing they were all acting like they have something on their shoulders and they are trying to get it off. I think that awkwardness was purposely input.

But my last fav moment I found that I can't incorporate with research was this moment when he made eye contact with this woman and he was going off doing his best club hoe gimme some dollars move to...impress her? Like there were men around he could of done that with. I don't think she knew what to do with that. I really don't know what the intention was and she was just kinda like

The music video is sped up but she turned away so slowly she was like I dunno about all that. No lie he's either a comedian or he like actually think he's a exotic dancer cause why would he do that.

It was actually the highlight of doing this for two hours. Like I'm gone, what did he expect her to do get behind him?

But yeah this was actually fun and honestly I have less space on my other apps so I put a lot of research on tumblr, and with stuff like this why not it's innocent and not too serious. I really enjoyed the song and music video at first I was hesitant but once I realized the average person didn't like it I was like okay it's safe. I like things that are an acquired viewing.

At first I was like ehh, but now I am seeing the vision. But I really think this could of been a really cute drama. Like 4 or 5 episodes I'm so ready for him to act again especially if it's in something like this, like please. Korean promo circuit is a particular torture for me. I do not find korean variety funny. I have watched japanese variety and laughed so many times. I've been watching korean stuff for years. I'm not sure if the humor doesn't hit for me but I'm very different in what I find funny. I noticed that I find Kji hilarious but not when he's trying to be funny on variety it's so cringe to me. Like I just sit their stoneface, but when he's just being himself doing goofy stuff like this he's very funny. I just wish they wouldn't script so much. I know korean t.v they script so much of it just to be safe so no one says something bad. It makes for awful, repetitive t.v.

So sadly his album and whatever he does will be all I will be able to enjoy. I just can't get used to korean variety it's so boring. It's never the show it's the system it's like some shows have way too many people writing them and I can tell. I can see for rookies but I can't understand they do it to grown adults.

But I would love to see him on the jennifer hudson show, or drew barrymore or maybe kelly clarkson. I think if he promoted in america they usually don't script that heavy so it will be much more natural. But I notice some kpop idols sort of crashout when they are given freedom to talk about things they would never say in korea.

There's also so many shows on youtube he could guest on.

Hailey bieber interviews people over snacks, tiny desk concert,also he literally has his own youtube channel but apparently he has to pay for editing and film himself. But his youtube is so so scripted like it's unbearable you can basically see him reading off a prompter.

Honestly if he would show himself doing stuff for work or during his viral moments that would be nice like an in between for filming mv's. Him talking with people, or his actual dance practice process.

I would love a behind the scenes for this whole process. He could of been making documentaries for every album, post them on youtube. The ones that show barely anything aren't entertaining, there's so much they leave out,

Adult Swim Analysis. Kai; Fallen Angel, Messiah and Cult Leader?

So I decided to analyze this music video since nobody does that now and days.

But first the lyrics.

24 year old me pretending I don't know what this is about

but yeah this is one of his only songs where there is no other meaning it's just as dirty as you think it is even though it's the name of a beloved cartoon network.

this is ...

Basically it's a clever and innocent way of referring to s.xual activity. Something younger people are restricted from.

But honestly literally all of his albums are about the same thing. S.x. Well all his title tracks refer to s.x the songs tend to be about either s.x or a relationship.

In the end of rover which is really chronologically the second album, we find him locked away in a cave and calling himself a sinner.

Now in this more modern music video we find he is in the present day with a new more ethnic group of young folks where he is teaching them the art of adult swimming.

He is the only one dancing in the music video other than the girl.

In the first scene we see a melting popsicle. Popsicles are made out of fruit. But it is cold and condensed and you must lick and consume it to get the flavor. So yeah. I mean I don't really expect deeper meanings from his work at this point but like it wouldn't hurt.

Anyway

I don't believe it's a coincidence that the woman is holding the popsicle. Her shirt says forever. If you are going off the metaphor that the forbidden fruit is the anatomy of a woman this is a direct continuation of peaches where not only has nothing about his behavior changed he is also more brazen about it. He is able to openly do this instead of being in a castle, a mountainside or some post apocolyptic temple. He's out in public living freely. As a fallen angel partaking in unheavenly delights.

We also see a bird in a cage so it's possible that these people are trapped and he is feeding off of them.

In peaches and mhmm we met his followers in white and gray garbs that served him in temples and palaces

He is dancing with her and he has an angel wings necklace on and she has a angel wing tattoo on his back. This is super old symbolism with him

In peaches he said it feels good to be the bad guy, so basically he is a vampire and he feeds off his cult members. How interesting. This cult is young and most likely unaware of anything he is or does because they are not worshipping him they are all just hanging out and partying at this sort of group home.

The nice young lady also has a skull and crossbone necklace symbolizing these cult members may have recently been reborn or he is easing them into his lifestyle. Albeit slowly.

Another skull and crossbones just so you know these people are marked for death.

The place is full of meaningful posters and graffiti in english that I believe is trying to communicate to the audience something about what we are seeing, it is a short music video after all.

Right here says "This moment is more precious than you all think" To me this looks like the typical cult phrase. This is not just a group of friends these people all are living together and partying together in this abandoned pool zone.

The angel wings necklace serve to symbolize that although his wings are hidden he still caries them with him in some way shape or form or basically he is still an angel even if he doesn't have his wings. And more than likely he still wants to be worshipped or in charge or a group of people just like he was in mhmm and Peaches. He still craves some type of power and control over others.

Lmao life imitating art or the other way around you never know.

he is also wearing the spiral necklace that was seen in rover.

The spirals symbolize hypnosis.

Implying that he is now exercising this control over his cult members now.

Kai unlike the others is ascended and he has been that way for some time. The others perhaps are newly ascended but under his own direction so he can be seen walking around checking on everything. It is similar to the seen in mhmm when he is looking over the city on the roof, except now there are people instead of an empty technowasteland.

he is almost acting like the lifegaurd of the place

Eventually after looking around he spots a girl with a angel wing tattoo on her back. This sets her apart from the others and is likely symbolic to her being awakened as well.

She notices him looking at her and turnsto him somehow making eye contact even though he's 25 feet in the air. But I suppose it's similar to him being high up like an angel even though he doesn't have wings. Maybe they are saying like his rank and status as an angel is above hers. I don't know for sure.

then he begins dancing by the pool and draws attention to himself

Then later we see a split screen of Kai watching the woman dance, we don't see the shot of him directly watching her but the screen is split in half to show us her dancing and attracting his attention.

It's almost surreal.

We are seeing from his perspective.

Oddly oddly enough we get a close up and see that she is actually nowhere near him so he must be watching her from a long distance

On a yellow bin we see the graffiti words in english titled "Make More."

make more of what exactly?

The girl seems uncomfortable for a split second and seemingly out of nowhere Kai is suddenly right behind her, almost like he spawned randomly.

This music video is so elaborate and subtle it's amazing right after they began dancing this scene with a boy holding a lolipop that says I love you and he is wearing an anhnk

An anhnk in ancient kemet was basically a symbol for the reunification of the masculine and feminine principles. Them being in front of a yellow bin that says make more, wow.

It does make sense because with Kai's last few albums the angel symbology was heavy. She has a pair of inked wings on her back. They are both ascended so to speak, which makes sense why they are the only ones dancing together. Which I thought was odd, there are no other dancers. Which is definitely purposeful. In other music videos he may single out one female dancer but the dance usually contains 5 to 10 people in it. This music video only contains a solo and duet despite having a large amount of people in it.

after the little dance number we see a poster that says

"are you up or what?" Up referring to awakened or higher. In peaches he ascended out of a cave a went to the astral realm where he was able to dream walk.

We also see gender which only points to more questions with what is going on with the characters that we see in this. Are they all friends, are they even all human we don't know.

After this frame we get a scene with two people staring at one another. It seems to be either it's supposed to be representing what is happening between the two main dancers or they are influencing the behavior or the people at the pool.

We also get someone eating a peach which is again a reference to copulation

After this frame they continue their duet in the center of the room

and then they move onto the now empty pool

After they begin dancing the "pool' is now dry having been drained.

Which kind of ties into the he is feeding off of his members. Dancing could be a metaphor for an energetic exchange.

Even when he is shining in the later scenes where his shirt is sparkling

She is actually still behind him dancing in the dark, which is so symbolic. Like what are they doing? I mean I know it's symbolic he's feeding off her energy which is why his shirt is shining even though she is in the dark.

End of part one.

short lil tease teases

4th album potentials

Since it will prolly come out soon I'll just post this with the info available. Even though I think my old analysis will also be at least somewhat accurate

So firstly the paris

there's a map of the seine river

Dive in(honestly I hope this isn't a title track or an album title but it could be a lyric)

Probably it's something about childhood or age because they keep showing stuff of him as a child

He liked the movie pirates of the carribbean play when he was younger so it might be related to that period of time.

he's wearing the colors of the french flag

Interestingly enough the beginning of the movie takes place in

Jamaica is a french colony

"The French colonial empire in the Americas comprised New France (including Canada and Louisiana), French West Indies (including Saint-Domingue, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Dominica, St. Lucia, Grenada, Tobago and other islands) and French Guiana."

This also connects to Bomba which is a afro-latino island dance style

"Bomba is an umbrella term that refers to a variety of musical styles and associated dances originating in Puerto Rico. It was developed by enslaved Africans and their descendants in sugar plantations along coastal towns, most notably Loiza, Mayagüez, Ponce, and San Juan, during the 17th century."

" The Bomba is of African origin and came to Puerto Rico with the introduction of African Slaves. The Bomba is traditionally played with percussion instruments, such as drums. The Plena was later derived from the Bomba style. These music styles and the traditional dances to it, represent the infusion of Taino, European and African traditions"

In the lyrics for Bomba it's kind of confirmed

In the behind the scenes for the tour someone described what the concept will be like

they said this and idk why nobody is talking about it because this video for the tour guide kind of explains what the album is going to be about

the stage looks are also with less clothes. So honestly I think it's gonna be basically what I thought it was going to be since it's a continuation of the other themes.

Stopping time and immortality references.

I'll stop here cause I don't wanna spoil the entire thing.

Mostly because I don't even think this album is new, I think this is something that was supposed to be a pt 2 to rover, meaning parts of it may have already been filmed like 2 years ago.

Cause the filming time doesn't make sense and they didn't spend more than a day and a half filming cause in between people thinking he was filming a music video in reality he was filming that ralph lauren mini film in...paris I think. They may have quickly shot some things in the middle of him doing promotion and fashion stuff. But I do not think it's much more than a few extra scenes and clips. He's been filming sparsely meaning the recording and everything was probably mostly done and they may have been doing reshoots or ad on scenes. Which explains why he dyed his hair blonde because one of the old scenes might be when he was filming during rover, so he had to match those scenes. Then the new hair color is probably because the 2nd mv is with brown hair. Otherwise they torched his hair for no reason or it was just a wig. And I know reshoots/wigs to cover up new hair due to extended periods between filming due to snyder verse. When filming is done in super short periods of time and magically everything is done that's a reshoot.

Or maybe they put moments or video clips from his childhood to make it like similar to one of those look how I've grown projects like beyonce did putting her childhood videos in her tour. Anyway that's what I think.

all these retweets and not a single person wondered what was wrong with him.

Jongin losing his balance from shaking his head too much.

I can't wait for everyone to get to a point where they realize this and all the other times the members hit one another wasn't okay. No matter who did it. Nobody should put their hands and try to hurt their coworker in public, it's not cute. All the members have hit or pushed or kicked one another in some type of way. Honestly I found it weird cause it's very rare to have that happen so many times with such a controlled group which tells me this was normal. It's really sad cause many were very young, some hardly knew one another and it's just really suspicious. They all got used to disrespecting and being disrespected physically and it wasn't okay. Because S.m was the management I still blame them because it's their job to control that type of thing. It's obvious s.m let them do whatever, I suppose if they just start fighting oh well. They didn't care about these boys and in turn they took their frustration out on one another, but still had to makeup because they had no choice. They had to punish the others who misbehaved in public cause the managers weren't allowed to do so. It's very sick and I pray they get healing for all the trauma they went through.

its sad how nothing was known about him for years and ppl just were able to craft their own narrative. I remember when people thought he was classy bougie and intelligent for years and then before he left he posted a video of him crip walking to a young thug song in the middle of the street and he said it was okay cause nobody was around. When fans thought he was a romantic sweet respectable young lad in reality, Bizzle B was his idol.

I love how the script they read from is like right in front of them, but its radio so people can't see it but then they post these videos and they hold the script the entire time.

jongin talking about his supportive parents

he and suho either have never fought or they have fought dozens of times there's no in between, cause their interactions are just so odd. Like they clearly don't like one another, I won't argue over this they don't, yet they don't hate one another either, and during that podcast radio whatever he tried to pat kai on the shoulder and said they were close Kai literally almost tipped over trying to get away from him. Then later Suho said he was like a father to him or at least tried to be. And during the exo ladder 4 Kai and the others ragged on him continuously. Super weird. Kai doesn't take him seriously, but why? The others mostly stay silent when it comes to any issues or dislikes but they keep showing how little they respect suho. Sad, now he's hiking in california and has a Cosco membership. Perhaps he'll go to tmz and tell his side of the story. Hopefully he goes full jessica and writes 2 books and has a movie.

he has a hangup at literally every stage that's why I get so upset when people push that he came from this big happy family, like pls stop saying that when you don't know someone's childhood. You don't know what being a kid was like for anyone but especially a child entertainer. It's very rough for anyone. But particularly in Korea. Especially in kpop and especially at s.m. I don't ever wanna push to just feel bad for people all the time but how people overeroticize him when almost every habit he has is traced back to child neglect, it gets under my skin seriously.

jongin why

All he does is get inspired. ok katniss.

jongin shooting us with his love ♡

Its crazy how multiple people have confirmed that jongins been in arrested development his whole life and people think he is mature. He is physically developed but his maturity is stuck at like age 8 when his father pushed him to become something in the ent sector. So many people never talk about how stressful his life must have been he was in school full time plus over 5 activities. He said over the years he did art, calligraphy, he tried taekwondo but he sucked, jazz, tap dancing, and ballet and was an sm terminal for years before even auditioning again and becoming a trainee. On top of they wanted him to be a child model. He would of had issues even if he wasnt in s.m but sm is another reason why he wasnt able to develop. All the staff became substitite parents and babied him. He just stopped being a kid which is why he is the way he is. His office is full of child's toys and he constantly refrences cartoons. He literally is mentally stuck at that age and even kids find him immature. Which explains why he doesnt say anything when kids tease him and never demands they respect him because they think he and them are on the same level. Ricky kim even basically said this when asked why Kai was so good with kids. I also noticed he never demands younger people respect him or use honorifics. He doesnt even understand the concept or at least he doesnt think it even applies to him. Hence why he argued with Taemin in middle school about the honorifics thing and didnt think it was important. Honestly its not a sweet thing but a real psychological hangup he has that he requires others to take care of him at all times, whether on variety, in a band or in his friendgroup. During the variety they did im 2022 I think his different mindset is so apparent now that he can actually talk more. He doesn't get jealous in relationships allegedly cause 8 year olds don't really care that complexly about relationships. Physical boundaries mean nothing to him so thats why he is okay with a partner feeding or zipping up someones jacket. Him talking to a psych major is so funny cause i know he is already aware of all of this cause he reads psychology books. SO he's aware but that doesnt change his issues. You cannot fix this problem unless you go back in time and become a kid again. Which is something he's constantly trying to do. Lmao that why the other member said he thinks he's gen z it was an inside joke because he really does think he is younger than he is. It happens to lots of people. Which also explains why he was begging to be a few years younger a few years ago and didnt want to talk about being 30. They will be married with kids but they are still psychologically stuck at a certain age. A lot of people say he acts like he's five but I will go with 8 because thats when he began doing all those activities. Too much stress on tiny very young person like it was gonna happen regardless. His stage persona is a mask yes, but its more than that. That is the person he created to be what the top superstars during his youth were.

pt 2 for album analysis

I've never done an album analysis before an album

like what if I'm wrong...but what is I'm right tho

Anyway I always thought a feature for a future album could definitely happen but it would have to be a foreign artist..wouldn't it?

Idk.

But anyway I really think it's going to be more symbolic than literal, the reality it the amount of spiritual messages in albums is paramount, so it's really what the focus is supposed to be on.

Bathtubs

the last album was about reality swapping and the fallen angel symbology was heavy in peaches but it was undercurrent. So if the main theme is water this time it's probably going to have more to do with the properties of water, such as how space and time and fluid.

he usually models his work after female black artists so if I look at some of their similar projects it should align at least a little bit.

But he also loves white male old hollywood and "imitated" elvis in his last album

which explains the black and blonde cause elvis was a natural blonde who dyed his hair black.

I think this is a remake? or inspired by one of elvis's actual suits

also the barber shop thing was really subtle

Like they do all these little things but if an interviewer ever asked them about it they'd be like huh what who?

He loved barber shops and doing his hair he couldn't leave it alone.

also elvis' military haircut was documented as well so I'm wondering if mimicking that was a joke? were they trynna be funny?

Did he get too into character again?

But if I had to guess, he wouldn't do the same thing twice back to back.

Hmm...thailand, water, pseudo spiritual, rnb and reggae again....

I'm going with a baby boy type island theme maybe a bit of survior.

also he's been trying to show his bellydancing off for years but the choreo and the music has never really called for it.

I think it's gonna be like a temple theme but probably similar to the mhmm kind of vibe but when he was in the white temple them. I think that's what I'm locking in. Usually I don't do this but I've been pleasantly surprised by the fact that they actually listened to feedback and he stopped dancing to corny kpop challenges cause it just wasn't working. So I think they are able to cut waste and bad ideals better and also work to their strengths and this is his strength to be honest.

Okay this was fun if I'm completely wrong oh well

But I think I'm right.

The fact that people thought he was joking says a lot....he wasn't joking he was trynna say something.

why.. is he like this..?

The kaiyonce theory I wanna do will actually be a trilogy; coming this summer, finally culminating in a documentary where they finally meet in person and merge into one person ala steven universe.

damn…. kaiyoncé is real
