This will be a long comment, so please sit down, bring your popcorn, and enjoy this story time. B.A.P was a 6-member boy group that debuted back in 2012 with their title track WARRIOR. Interesting fact about it, the youngest member (who had 16 at that time) holds the record for “THE FASTEST RAP LINE IN A KPOP SONG” producing 16 - 18 syllables per second. That year EXO-K, CROSSGENE, BTOB, VIXX (among other known artists) debuted as well, bringing tough competition to these guys. Nonetheless, they were able to thrive and stood up due to their powerful image, and overwhelming energy. Their vocal and rap line is INSANELY GOOD! And don’t get me even started on their dance line! ABSOLUTE FIRE!
They were known because of their down-to-earth concept, that is, ever since they debuted their songs held a strong meaning behind each line intending to wake the world up against unfairness, hardships, and abuse. Each of their MVs demonstrate how cruel, and difficult the world is. Even before BTS, no shading intended here, they talked about self-awareness, mental health, drug dealing, enemy gangs, racism, equal rights, and so on. This influence came from their leader Bang Yongguk, who was an underground rapper alongside with his friend Himchan (also a member of the group), so no wonder B.A.P’s songs touched a part of humanity Korean music is nowadays neglecting. In 2018, TSentertainment (their label) announced B.A.P’s leader had finished his contract with them, therefore he would no longer participate in any activity of the group. Soon after, as each of the remaining members’ contract reached their ending, one by one left the company. Surely, that was the hardest moment for us, as fans, but words of reassurance were spoken by them and promised to be back together once they fully recover from everything they had been through. Whilst they were still together, they delivered great tracks which were mainly produced by them. Even though they had a more hip-hop/ rock kind of vibe, they weren’t afraid of trying diverse genres in music. Actually, they had different singing abilities, and peculiar voices, that blended perfectly and complemented one another. This led to multiple possibilities at the moment of composing and picking up songs for their mini and full-length albums. The key to explore different styles and the opportunity to push their vocal limits. From rock to the softest of ballads, or hip-hop tracks to a more popish/ electro type of sound. They were genuinely good in all of them. It’s not that they didn’t have an identity of their own because they did. What made them different, beyond their music, were their personalities and hard-hitting lyrics about topics already mentioned. Here are some of their most famous ones: ONE SHOT (you’ve already reacted to it) and SKYDIVE. These tracks are movie like MVs that not only incorporates the main song but introduces some other tracks within the same album. Therefore, you have a full grasp on what the rest of the compilation will sound like. If you are into it, then you’re most definitely gonna love it! Some other powerful songs are: BADMAN, “YOUNG, WILD, AND FREE”, NO MERCY, 1004 (ANGEL), HANDS UP, HONEYMOON, WAKE ME UP, and POWER. Now, if you like these tracks, you might as well would like to check out their softer and laid back songs with lots of acoustic, Jazz, and R&B sounds like: RAIN SOUND, COFFEE SHOP (which some believe it’s a continuation story to ONE SHOT. Though, it is not 100% confirmed), and WHERE ARE YOU? WHAT ARE YOU DOING? If you ever feel down, I would recommend you listen to more happy and funny singles such as: FEEL SO GOOD, STOP IT, CRASH (I suggest live performances, because they are really hilarious), and THAT’S MY JAM. They came from a very small company, but somehow, they were able to hold the title “rookie monster” because of how quickly they reached recognition. B.A.P was breaking the charts back in 2012 - 2014. They even got Billboard acknowledgments due to their younger achievements, including best rating albums with “FIRST SESIBILITY”, “ONE SHOT”, and “NOIR” reaching N°1 in each occasion. Multiple tours were held in different cities around the world, increasing their popularity overseas. Whereas, if it wasn’t because of their lawsuit situation against their company due to mistreatment and underpayment (November 27th, 2014), they would have triumphed in the music industry. During this process, they went to a hiatus for over a year, and when they came back (November 16th, 2015) their popularity wasn´t as strong as it was back then. They had so much to give and deliver and a strong message to convey, yet they were forced to move aside.
*Facts about the group:* - Just in case you were wondering, B.A.P stands for “BEST ABSOLUTE PERFECT”. - Their logo is a mechanic rabbit called “MATOKI”. - Their fandom name is BABY (for girls) and WARRIOR (for boys). - Group concept: They were supposed to be rabbits that came from space to save planet earth from devastation. Each member had a name and a mission to fulfil. - By now, you might be aware that every KPOP group or idol has their own anthem. A song that signifies too much not only for them, but for fans around the world. Usually, these songs are their debut tracks. In the case of B.A.P, bearing in mind that WARRIOR continues being our favourite song out of all their music, it wasn’t until they came up with their first complete album “FIRST SESIBILITY” that BABIES and WARRIORS found that song. “WITH YOU” talks about being alone and going through difficult times but finding someone you can trust, and how that person brings light, joy, and hope to your life. This song has empowered the whole fandom and it is almost impossible not to cry when listening to it. This also inspired the hashtag “#FOREVERWITHBAP” meaning that even though we cannot see each other as frequent as we would have, we are still thinking about each other, waiting to get back together. Until now, they are still using this hashtag. ( th-cam.com/video/-BsyJQ-HBdo/w-d-xo.html ) These Days, they are mainly focused on their solo careers. Yongguk (the leader) has released several songs since 2014. One of them is “AM 4:44” which talks, more or less, his feelings about being betrayed and the trust he poured on the company. Really mighty song. His singles consist of mainly rapping, but he incorporates lots of Jazz, R&B, and acoustic sounds melodies in his music like: PORTRAIT or ORANGE DRIVE. As well as some hip-hop tunes and a sort of trap type of sound with YAMAZAKI (among many other). Daehyun (main vocalist) has released three solo songs. These are BABY, YOU’RE MY, and AIGHT. His mellow, though strong voice was made to sing ballads, but he has proven throughout the years that he can do many other genres in music as well. YoungJae (lead vocalist) has two mini-albums worth listening to. With a more popish and electro sound ANOTHER NIGHT and FOREVER LOVE (title tracks from each mini album) are really entertaining and relaxing as the same time. Junhong aka ZELO (his stage name and lead rapper/ dancer) also has three mini-albums, quite different from one another. His first collection “DISTANCE” (album’s name) incorporates really good laid-back tracks along with great dancing songs such as QUESTIONS (title track) and “FLASH, PARTY” (which demonstrate how good of a dancer he is). On the other hand, we got his second mini album “DAY2DAY” which is a more mature collection. This one is incredibly special because he himself made and produced it. From the writing, pictures, sounds, designs, every detail HE DID IT! I’d say this was more like his style. Like I picture him having lots of fun while creating this. Strong lyrics about disrespectful people and some other explicit about “certain things”. Title track “SHE AND MALIBU”. Finally, his third mini album describes different types of moments in a relationship (at least that’s what I like to believe) he explores once again his singing voice much like in his first album. I totally recommended. Single’s “FAULT” and “WHY AM I SO LONELY”. Last, but not least, we got JongUp (main dancer) who recently debuted as a solo artist with his single-track HEADACHE. A retro and upbeat song that I totally advise listening to. I am sorry for this long comment, but these guys deserve so much love and using your platform may bring them back. People who listen to you, and haven’t heard of them, might look for their name and so we will make them appear again. New generations ought to know who they were and how important their message is nowadays. This is my gift to them and to you! I owe it to them as a BABY/ WARRIOR 😊
@@StricherohneRechte I’m glad you’re touched by it! 💕 It has been hard for us, fans, bearing in mind everything that has happened with Himchan. However, I still believe in their promise and I think we should spread positivity and recommend their music whenever we can💚
Perkenzah is not a fan of popcorn but we did have a good cup of coffee while reading this and boy did we enjoy the story time 😆 I mean just WOW! First off, thank you so so much for taking the time to actually clue us in on their backstory. It would have taken us hours to dig up all this info ourselves and we really appreciate the effort you put into this 💕 It's so sad that they have so much talent and it all went south just because they signed up with a a company that didn't appreciate them. They definitely would have been up there with the big names today. We really hope they manage to get things sorted and make a comeback. We've basically been listening to One Shot and Warrior on repeat every single day and we really, REALLY can't wait to react to more of their songs so THANK YOU so much for the breakdown of their songs and the suggestions! ❤
Thank you for reacring to our boys!! Fandom name btw is Baby. Agree that it was a very strong debut. They did showcase all the members' strong points in Warrior. 👌👌 Do check out their live performances because it's one of the best. Check out their -Japan concert perf of "Coma" and "punch". -Live performance of Voice message plus Rain Sound
B.A.P was a game changer , back then most group were generic until our boys debuted..i still keep their albums since highschool,i saved up money for those albums,the only kpop group I've ever spent money on.. it's sad now that I'm an adult ,got a job and money but no b.a.p to support ;(
Yasss finally tq so much you guys😩🙏🙏🙏 actually they're not really disbanded.... They just gone hiatus for awhile now, cause after the contract ended two of the members went to military service..... They have so many jams you guys can check out... Yes the deep voice guy(Bang Yongguk) has his own solo project....i hope you guys can check out his solo & the other BAP songs too, next time😁 BTW thanks again for the effort to react to these guys🙏🙏🙏
Aaaaahhh.. Well we hope they make a comeback and soon 😜 It would be so interesting to see how the years has influenced them. Yes! We are totally hooked on B.A.P so we will be reacting to their other songs as soon as we can but I think we are doing VIXX next. Thank you for watching our reactions and for commenting and supporting us! We really appreciate it and makes our journey so much more fun! ❤
Thank you for this reaction to my Boys they are still my favorite group in kpop. I still remember when the stage broke down while they performed warrior in they debut time. 😂 Its so funny because before the stage they made a joke about it and it happened. 🤣 You should react to they solo songs as well and maybe the hole albums ^^ I would like to see it 😊 At this time the Babyz (is our official Fandomname and Stan's for Babyz always Beside you) came up with the joke ~I like the Blond one~ Back in the days before they had the lawsuit wit they company they were call Monster rookies. TS has some other amazing artist like TRCNG, Secret, Sonamoo and sleepy. The company is just a really bad one. They are really hell in my opinion. Could you please react to TRCNG as well 🙏 I would recoment spectrum beacuse it they debut song and also i would love to see your reaction to all of the dance practices for B.A.P and TRCNG. I would like to see your reaction to this 2 guides to B.A.P and the other 2 funny videos XD th-cam.com/video/rAB9wYrfrOg/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=kz-i-co th-cam.com/video/HaYyK_uYIL8/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=isitamemeyet th-cam.com/video/-PXBd4DO-EE/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=isitamemeyet th-cam.com/video/E57jrIT9EzY/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=isitamemeyet Here is a guide for TRCNG as well th-cam.com/video/UDaL3PslNn0/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=AdoringggukAdoringgguk Sleepys diss track to ts after he left the company feat Yongguk th-cam.com/video/oPcYj8nLkfE/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=angelily95angelily95 If you have any questions you can ask me or other B.A.B.Yz
I'm glad you look at the list I gave you. B.A.P live was always amazing but you can check the one out here ( th-cam.com/video/qMh4igXxxDY/w-d-xo.html ). They did few songs with MTV when they came to America for tour. As to the "deep voice guy," his name is Bang Yongguk, many of his songs are great but in terms of having good MV try these three: Yamazaki th-cam.com/video/XCfRIUOyMNQ/w-d-xo.html I remember th-cam.com/video/Z2ae5qRWPCg/w-d-xo.html and the last one was produced during their tough time with their horrible company and the song may reflect that, you should check it out also.
