J.Cole doesn't seem like the type of artist to do a feature strictly for the money and lord knows he doesn't need or chase clout, so I think he was genuinely interested in making this collab happen. I'm glad he did, as the song is immaculate and a lovely send off for Hobi as he heads to the military.
The story telling of J-hope journey in the video was very well made. On the street with the kid version of J-hope dressed up like J.Cole dapping each other up. The different interpretations of J.Cole lyrics throughout with J-hope dancing. Taking the train from one station and coming out at the J-station. Then finally to the rooftop coming full circle with J-Hope meeting his idol he was inspired by and ending the video the way it started just showing love. Really enjoyed the barriers being broken with these kind of collabs.
Interesting. I saw the kid as the next "J". J-hope dap handshaking the kid (like giving to the next generation) and at the end, J Cole doing the same with J-Hope. It's like three generations of artists.
I love it. He puts j.cole up high on the roof, and him on the streets and underground in the subway. showing homage to everything that made him, and in the end, rises up to meet j.cole on the roof 😭😭😭😭
Just also read that this was the same street where jcole shot one of his earliest MVs. God the level of thinking that goes into this…. THIS IS WHY I LOVE THEM AAAAHH
on his live yesterday, hobi said that him and cole exchanged phone numbers and have been talking since. and after filming the mv hobi texted him saying how its such an honor working with him and cole sent him a long paragraph text. this is so fucking cool i feel so happy for hobi
I think a part of it was because JHOPE is reflecting on his roots, therefore he gave way to J.cole to show his roots (rap) while Jhope returned back to his which is dancing. iIthink the intention was awesome.
gotta love the hype. 😂 hobi has been my bias forEver. Ever since i started watching BTS in 2015. He is the type of person to quietly master everything he puts himself into. You just gotta love him. You propably wont even see this comment since its already a old video, but the one thing that really captured his essence while working on his project was that he literally put zero effort to bring in features for his album, the only thing he did was this with J.Cole and i think that truly shows how much respect hobi has for him. This song IS a huge milestone in Kpop.
It reminds me of how joon got Erykah Badu to feature on Yun. I think BTS members sincerity towards their music and craft really speaks to legends like Erykah and J-Cole.
To put a number on it, Hobi had 8 bars and Cole had THIRTY TWO FULL BARS. That is such mad respect from Hobi to let Jcole own this track as a FEATURED ARTIST on his OWN song and not to mention it’s his last project for a hot minute. And also I feel reborn about Jcole’s verse lol that shit was rejuvinating
@@dmyaalexander8098 he did! for all collabing artists....even going back to Mono mixtape he used "with" versus feat. but then their BTS group tracks has "feat" so curious what the distinction is.
I lost my mind the first time I heard this song. J-Cole is insanely talented with his wordplay and having J-Hope not only kill his own verses but ALSO dance to J-Cole's verse? Speechless.
I’m from NC so you know Cole my favorite, but this literally got me smiling ear to ear. Black culture and Korean culture are sharing more and more and it’s beautiful.
@@quatzxice it is indeed, it’s kind of looked upon as weird in our culture but also Americans in general often have trouble understanding things that are different
I’m a North Carolinian too, and seeing POC like Jermaine and Hobi succeed like they have is amazing! I bawled after thinking about this being a final verse for Cole and a “see you later” from Hobi to ARMYs.
15:04 Ous you're right about the Hope world and Cole world part.. These were Hobi's lyrics in BTS's song ‘Hip hop phile’ : "Hope hope world, before I built my own world, there was Cole world When he lit up Friday night, I became more inspired to write my own music" (Friday Night was a reference to J Cole's mixtape Friday Night Lights. According to Hobi's latest documentary, he mentioned the same mixtape when he met J cole in Lollapalooza and told him he's his muse and that he loves this mixtape and even mentioned the song "Higher" from the same mixtape..)
That handshake was definitely a "thank you for everything" "you did good bro" handshake. That symbolized a culmination of years of j-hope being inspired and just doing his very best to be someone he could be proud of and his heros would someday respect and that finally coming to fruition.
Mad respect to *J-Hope* for giving *JCole* so many lines as a feautured artist on his own song. This is why *Hobi* is on my *bias* list, he's just genuine and kind and respects other artist. May *God* bless him and *JCole* and the ither members of *BTS*
Oh my god yes!!! Another j-hope bias joins our club! I love all BTS members as each one brings a unique element to the group, but there’s just something special about j-hope. He takes everything up another notch. Gifted artist.
I felt like Hope was basically saying the road he's waked on was paved byt the love and faith of ARMY and on this road he's embued his soul so essentially even though hes gonna be gone for a bit, he's still going to be here becuase we have so much material from him. I felt like this was a wonderful "see you later/bye for now" track. hope world with Cole world was such a sight. I loved every bit of it.
I love that you played ARSON 🔥in the beginning because I think it heavily related to the theme of J. Coles verse (especially about passing off the crown, wondering if he should stay a bit longer) was about him contemplating within himself about his career path and SHOULD he move on/extinguish the flames, OR continue to burn even brighter as Hobi put it. Powerful stuff, still can’t believe it’s real 💜
J-hope is so many reactors bias, especially black and or male reactors. That is saying something. Idk what but it’s something. But jhope is my bias too and j.Cole is my favorite rapper too. I’m ecstatic
This music video hit me so hard, coz hobi really gave j.cole his flowers man. the K-music industry and othe music industries are built on black music, but black artists harfly get recognition for it. jhope gave j.cole the room to breathe on this track (more than hobi himself tbh). and the music video showed hobi dancing to j.cole's verse, coz thats how hobi started. hobi danced to j.cole back in the day and his love for it grew because of it. i just think this song is so special man. so much homage was payed beautifully
First of all, we been knew Hobi was Ous's bias for a while now.😂 This Collab is literally one of the best things to happen to kpoo and JHope and like Ous said, you can definitely tell that this is something J Cole was genuinely interested in and it wasn't just a feature for the money or clout or whatever. As a huge J Cole fan and a JHope bias myself, my year has been made with On the street fr.
Man I hope J.Cole isn't going to retire. He is such a good artist. I love what you said about his lyrics, he raps things so well. He has an amazing way of putting words together. He's lyrics always have good meaning. Now I see how much J.Cole inspired J.HOPE. I LOVE THIS SONG
15:03 j-hope got his name partially from j.cole. hope world comes directly from cole world, but j-hope is a mix of a bit of everything. Hoseok said he wanted j-something for his stage name, the styling is inspired by j.cole, but the "j" also comes from his surname Jung, "hope" came later when they thought of the whole story with pandoras box and all that.
Glad seeing y'all still killing it with these reactions, glad to see someone as hyped as I was when I found out this collab was happening! Hobi deserved this one with all his hardwork and I'm glad J Cole and J Hope were give this opportunity for those that are fans of both of them!! This song definitely is one for a night of cruising and one for the soul!
i remember discovering jcole when they played who dat on BET and years later i found bts through tumblr and hobi dropped first verse in that year.. now i‘m listening to jhope ft jcole. crazy
On the street, where his roots are at... street dancing, where his soul belongs to... from the beats, lyrics to rap style everything is amazing... Jhope and J. Cole's harmonious duet... this is truly the best gift from a hard core dancer and musician to his fans before leaving for a short period of time 💜✨
this song was something else. gave me the kind of bittersweet feeling that young forever gives me - little glimmer of hope in the dark, but it's that little bit that makes the journey worth doing
J-Hope is incredible. Super talented, creative, thoughtful, versatile, skilled, dedicated, and everything! I bet you will never see someone similar to him! He is so unique 🔥🔥
This collab made me so happy because I was a fan of J Cole's music before I became an army, and still am AND to see my both worlds colliding like this is awesome. The fact that J Cole chooses to collabs with talented people he sees potential in makes this all the more meaningful, this is transcending barriers, language and culture-wise. I love this song so much, I love that we can see the mutual respect between the both artists.
you can really tell just how important this song is for jhope and how cole took that seriously and returned that same energy. i don't know much about JCole but the moment he opened his mouth, I immediately understood why he is hobi's role model. you right his pen game is crazy. i'd love to get into him more so if anyone can suggest songs/albums i can start with would be great!
Forest Hill Drive would be a good one. For singles, ‘Love Yours’ corresponds with BTS ‘Love Yourself’ message, so you should definitely check it out. Very deep song! I also love ‘Crooked Smile’ with TLC.❣️
I’ve been a fan of jcole since the sixth grade which was before I even got into kpop and when this collab was announced I honestly let out the loudest gasp. I was so happy and even more happy that hobi would be collabing with his idol😭 this duo is so iconic and this song is so legendary. I love them both so much and the video/song just made me emotional.
J-Cole has always been my fav rapper. He has depth in his lyrics, speaks truth and conveys meaing. BTS is my favourite as well , for the same reasons. just like wow. Best collab.
Hello @FOSquadKpop! The "j" in Hobi's stage name actually comes from his family name "Jeong." Thus, his lyrics on 'Pandora's Box' - "j to the hope, Jeong to the huimang, Jack in the box." Hope that helps. Thanks for the love you give to j-hope and the rest of the Bangtan boys.
no bc the way jcole puts so much passion into each lyric, you can see the love he has for what he does, its so genuine. and the way jhope gets to check this off of his list feels good even for me because this is is dream, j cole is his inspiration so being able to be alive in this generation and hear this gem is insane, this is my new fav song and i dont think anything can top it now😭 also respect to jhope because jcole had more verses then jhope on his own song, it just shows the love he has for him. i love them sm🙌 ï genuinely think im a jhope bias after this.
JHopexJCole = magic OTS was definitely a highlight for the year. You could tell so much thought and care went into this track. Love that Hobi went back to his dance roots. From the song to the MV, serious props to Hobi and JCole for putting together such an amazing song 🙌
Happy to find out you’re a fellow j-hope bias!! And a J. Cole fan! Nothing is topping this for me either. As a music lover , and J. Cole and J-Hope being some of my favorite music creators this meant so much to me. Hobi went live before the song dropped and mentioned they have been in contact and that Cole even sent him a whole paragraph via text. I could tell during my first listen that this wasn’t just a colab for the sake of colabing, they both put a lot into it, and it makes it that much more special to see that human connection and crossing of barriers through music. Especially since everytime I listen to Cole’s verse on this song. It almost feels like it’s the bridge between J-Hope’s Arson and More. This colab was a match made in heaven and I love that it meshes and fits so well into the puzzle for hobi and where he’s at musically. I know he’s gotta be over the moon about this colab!
Cole World! Love it. This collab will make history and will change the game of hip hop. If they didn’t embrace BTS or K-pop before, I guarantee you they will now. Thank you for being you, JHOPE, and being so multifaceted. 💜💜💜
I love how J.Hope gave J.Cole the floor in the song showing just how much respect he has for his idol growing up. Some artists wouldn't do it. J.Cole hopping on the track will certainly open up some eyes now in the rap world because he is top tier and would have to be convinced he was working with someone who a) can rap and b) is a decent person and J.Hope is both. I would love to see an Eminem and SUGA collab
I think the closest song that comes to this is RM's and Wale's song called "Change"...but other than that I don't think K-Pop has gotten something this big. I'm just happy I'm able to witness it! 💜💜
I've been saying it for years and years now that this is the collab that we all needed man. J. Cole is a legend himself so for him to collab with Jhope is mind blowing. It actually feels unreal.
It’s definitely a good send off for JHope. I’m happy his dream came true- FEELIN getting to work with his idol 🤩❤️🔥🫶🏼 I wish JHope nothing but the best and I can’t wait to see him again in 2025 💜☺️
Always been a fan of J.Cole but he doesn't just collab with anyone..so I know he introduced j-hope to many hip hop fans for the first time and I just love it. Anyways, always love the content yall, all love.
I love how you guys knows the importance and terrific and the greatness and the meaning about that song, JHOPE having JCole on that song means so much to him . 💜💜💜 Collaboration of the year!!!!! Thanks 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
j.cole just literally said like "should put out the fire, or burn even brigther" these two got the same mindset. now i get j-hope why he likes j.cole, this is the best collaboration, and i'm happy for j-hope this is a dream come true for him.
J-hope and j.cole are legends together this was a good song it made me cry so much I couldn't stop and the people who don't know J.cole go hear his music💜🥹🥺🥹😍
He wanted to go back to his roots, that’s exactly what he did. He went from dancing to J Cole on the streets, to dancing to “on the street” *with* j Cole! Everybody is interpreting it different but from the alleyway, to the streets, to the subway, back to the streets, then to the roof. I interrupted it as BTS storyline. The rooftop is a pedestal he sees Cole on, which he eventually meets him at in the end. Alleyway is the hardships, the streets is the recognition, the subway is the brief pause in the military, then the streets when he returns, and the rooftop is when BTS unite to reach “new heights” like the top of a rooftop building 💜
I knew you two would do this mv justice! I love J Cole and J Hope’s respect for rap and this artist is so evident. Love your commentary and love this song.
the mutual respect of it all is amazing. for jhope to give so many bars to an artist he respects in his song, for j. cole to utilise all of the time he was given and put so much thought and his brilliant lyricism into every bar. like damn that's good
..i sense J Hope's passion in doing this video...J Cole seems to be a legend in hip hop nowadays..both of them form a wonderful collaboration...this video is celestial, artistically speaking. J hope's dancing is also extraordinary..it reminds me of the film Dancing in the Rain with Gene Kelly. The meeting between the 2 worlds is amazingly enriching.
Best reaction 👍💯 I'm a huge ARMY and Jhope fan but I'm not familiar with JCole. This is the first time I heard his rap and his lyricism. I am very impressed. Gonna go check out more of JCole's work! 💜
I was crying so much when this song went out because I looooove J. Cole so much and even when Hobi is not my bias I love him so much, I’m army since the begin and I always felt like we connected through rap 😭 and now they have a song tgt
honestly u guys are the like the first thing i remembered to check out on yt after i watched on the street mv lmaooo i knew u would FEAST on the collab!!
I LOVE THIS SONG 🔥 J-hope let J. Cole own this song and I respect that. He's his muse. I think this is such a great and legendary collab. J.Cole verse is fire, J-hope's verse is short but both killed it! 🔥
J-cole is my favorite artist of all time as well while Jhope is my bias in kpop too so I feel your excitement. I actually started crying my first time listening to it and I still shriek everytime J-cole says; "Jhope, cole world." Cause its two huge impacts in my life joining forces and I can do nothing but sit here in awe everytime I listen or watch the mv.
They're the perfect people to collab because the depths their messages go from visuals, choreo, cinematography, culture, verses, the hip-hop instrumentals- everything is down to a T. 🔥🔥🔥 Cole giving hope to J-hope, and finally the two standing on the same rooftop is fckng heartwarming. Also it's the perfect timing too, J-hope's enlistment, J. Cole's possibly nearing retirement...my tears just flow hearing Cole's verse because it hits DOUBLE. This is the beauty of HIP-HOP 😭💗 When it comes to hip-hop you know J-hope thought about everything specially a collab with his idol? we know he worked 100x passionately to making it perfect. This is my favourite too. I'm always thinking how can J-hope top JITB then he exceeds himself every single time. I love Cole, he always makes me cry when I play him on Spotify he's just HEAVY on my heart, the rawness makes you human cuz he really makes you feel. I get so sentimental when it comes to Cole, when I'm feeling numb I play his music. I'm doing better now so it's been awhile that I do that so man when he came on, my life washes over me like a wave. I'm so glad they did this masterpiece. I knew you two would freak so I'm loving the reaction!! 💯💯💯 Sidenote: hobi recorded a mix with just his own bars, I'd love to hear that too 🤎
J.Cole doesn't seem like the type of artist to do a feature strictly for the money and lord knows he doesn't need or chase clout, so I think he was genuinely interested in making this collab happen. I'm glad he did, as the song is immaculate and a lovely send off for Hobi as he heads to the military.

wait omg
G DRAGON KING ,,,
Thanks for explain this 🫂
Interesting. I saw the kid as the next "J". J-hope dap handshaking the kid (like giving to the next generation) and at the end, J Cole doing the same with J-Hope. It's like three generations of artists.
Or the kid in the beginning represents Army as the kid did in Jins astronaut MV.
I love it. He puts j.cole up high on the roof, and him on the streets and underground in the subway. showing homage to everything that made him, and in the end, rises up to meet j.cole on the roof 😭😭😭😭
i didn't think of this, that's such a beautiful imagery!!! thanks for pointing it out (i'm def crying again)
I really didn't think of it this way so thank you for adding another beautiful element to this already beautiful collab
yoooo this moved me fr
Just also read that this was the same street where jcole shot one of his earliest MVs. God the level of thinking that goes into this…. THIS IS WHY I LOVE THEM AAAAHH
I've already crying over this song for so many times and this comment just made me cry again😭😭
on his live yesterday, hobi said that him and cole exchanged phone numbers and have been talking since. and after filming the mv hobi texted him saying how its such an honor working with him and cole sent him a long paragraph text. this is so fucking cool i feel so happy for hobi
No cause this not even Kpop at this point, it's straight up Hiphop and I loved every second of it
100%
literally and I am LIVING for it
Why tf did Spotify put it in kpop category like what??? It's not even kpop
Right like how is that kpop????? There are many other genres in Korean music!!!
Ikr
I’m glad J. Cole got a proper verse… really wasn’t expecting it to go on for that long but it was perfect - this colab was elite 🔥
Jhope really give him a lot of respect
it just goes to show how much J-hope idolizes J. Cole. He basically gave him the song and was dancing, going back to his street dancer roots.
I think a part of it was because JHOPE is reflecting on his roots, therefore he gave way to J.cole to show his roots (rap) while Jhope returned back to his which is dancing. iIthink the intention was awesome.
Jhope is J.Cole's fan so I've he would get his lines like he chose his stage name "J-hope"....
😳🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

i wonder it it's the reason why he put With J-Cole instead of feat J-Cole
Idk why this song is like crack for me now-
@@lee2mx didn’t Namjoon also put WITH instead of FT on his album
@@dmyaalexander8098 he did! for all collabing artists....even going back to Mono mixtape he used "with" versus feat. but then their BTS group tracks has "feat" so curious what the distinction is.
@Miley Cyprus .........
I lost my mind the first time I heard this song. J-Cole is insanely talented with his wordplay and having J-Hope not only kill his own verses but ALSO dance to J-Cole's verse? Speechless.
I’m from NC so you know Cole my favorite, but this literally got me smiling ear to ear. Black culture and Korean culture are sharing more and more and it’s beautiful.
Especially since I heard it's hard for black kpop fans with the racism and cultural appropriation, right?

J. Cole and j-hope, two incredible artists merge to give us this gift.

Oh my god yes!!! Another j-hope bias joins our club! I love all BTS members as each one brings a unique element to the group, but there’s just something special about j-hope. He takes everything up another notch. Gifted artist.
It’s called moving with purpose!!! j-hope is amazing!! Lot of respect for this young man!!!💜
This collab is a win for music lovers everywhere. I actually cried
I felt like Hope was basically saying the road he's waked on was paved byt the love and faith of ARMY and on this road he's embued his soul so essentially even though hes gonna be gone for a bit, he's still going to be here becuase we have so much material from him. I felt like this was a wonderful "see you later/bye for now" track. hope world with Cole world was such a sight. I loved every bit of it.
J.Cole fan right here🖐. Never thought this collab would happen but I'm honestly so happy It did.
Jcole and jhope ✨✨❤️💜 I have been waiting for this reaction....
I’m a huge J.cole fan. Hope world and Cole world coming together is the best thing
I love that you played ARSON 🔥in the beginning because I think it heavily related to the theme of J.

J-hope is so many reactors bias, especially black and or male reactors. That is saying something. Idk what but it’s something. But jhope is my bias too and j.Cole is my favorite rapper too. I’m ecstatic
Hahaha
True.
He is my bias
I just watched DT parker reaction

I have uploaded acapella ver of this song 🎵
You can tell j hope really likes j Cole bro because this is the longest a feature has spit bars on a j hope song and it's 🔥. Straight to play list
i remember discovering jcole when they played who dat on BET and years later i found bts through tumblr and hobi dropped first verse in that year.. now i‘m listening to jhope ft jcole. crazy
as a jcole fan this shit HITS! truly iconic! HOPEWORLDXCOLEWORLD
On the street, where his roots are at... street dancing, where his soul belongs to... from the beats, lyrics to rap style everything is amazing... Jhope and J. Cole's harmonious duet... this is truly the best gift from a hard core dancer and musician to his fans before leaving for a short period of time 💜✨
J Cole is definitely the best rapper out now those bars proved it!!

Hello everyone l wanted to thank you fo squad kpop for bringing good vibes and positive energy to their reactions
Hello @FOSquadKpop! The "j" in Hobi's stage name actually comes from his family name "Jeong." Thus, his lyrics on 'Pandora's Box' - "j to the hope, Jeong to the huimang, Jack in the box." Hope that helps. Thanks for the love you give to j-hope and the rest of the Bangtan boys.
I believe that it was also inspired by J. Cole. He's Hobi's favorite artist, and there's no way he didn't notice a parallel between the names.
no bc the way jcole puts so much passion into each lyric, you can see the love he has for what he does, its so genuine. and the way jhope gets to check this off of his list feels good even for me because this is is dream, j cole is his inspiration so being able to be alive in this generation and hear this gem is insane, this is my new fav song and i dont think anything can top it now😭 also respect to jhope because jcole had more verses then jhope on his own song, it just shows the love he has for him. i love them sm🙌 ï genuinely think im a jhope bias after this.
JHopexJCole = magic
OTS was definitely a highlight for the year. You could tell so much thought and care went into this track. Love that Hobi went back to his dance roots. From the song to the MV, serious props to Hobi and JCole for putting together such an amazing song 🙌
My favourite American rapper jcole and my bias jhopoooppe....u know what,I LOVE HOW THIS SONG WAS UNCENSORED...THEY ATE IT
Happy to find out you’re a fellow j-hope bias!! And a J. Cole fan! Nothing is topping this for me either. As a music lover , and J. Cole and J-Hope being some of my favorite music creators this meant so much to me. Hobi went live before the song dropped and mentioned they have been in contact and that Cole even sent him a whole paragraph via text. I could tell during my first listen that this wasn’t just a colab for the sake of colabing, they both put a lot into it, and it makes it that much more special to see that human connection and crossing of barriers through music. Especially since everytime I listen to Cole’s verse on this song. It almost feels like it’s the bridge between J-Hope’s Arson and More. This colab was a match made in heaven and I love that it meshes and fits so well into the puzzle for hobi and where he’s at musically. I know he’s gotta be over the moon about this colab!
Cole World! Love it. This collab will make history and will change the game of hip hop. If they didn’t embrace BTS or K-pop before, I guarantee you they will now. Thank you for being you, JHOPE, and being so multifaceted. 💜💜💜
I love how J.Hope gave J.Cole the floor in the song showing just how much respect he has for his idol growing up. Some artists wouldn't do it. J.Cole hopping on the track will certainly open up some eyes now in the rap world because he is top tier and would have to be convinced he was working with someone who a) can rap and b) is a decent person and J.Hope is both. I would love to see an Eminem and SUGA collab
I think the closest song that comes to this is RM's and Wale's song called "Change"...but other than that I don't think K-Pop has gotten something this big. I'm just happy I'm able to witness it! 💜💜
Wow , I loved that you mentioned RM x Wale Change, I literally just posted about it while talking about On TThe Street. What a time to be allive
yessss! while streaming on the street, i just watched change a few times cos it's such a match. 💜
omg i said the same thing 💜
I agree
Crying because G Dragon ft Missy Elliott on NILIRIA was a decade ago... Now I just need like a Hwasa x Beyoncé collab to die in peace.
Thx for the reaction jhope did us proud and the fact that this Collab,MV and Song is just truly legendary its straight fire 🔥
I've been saying it for years and years now that this is the collab that we all needed man. J. Cole is a legend himself so for him to collab with Jhope is mind blowing. It actually feels unreal.
i agree this is more than just kpop j. cole is j-hope's idol and being able to collab is just amazing. if you get it you get it 💜
j-hope is also my bias. I love him and his songs. He truly is an amazing artist.
Cole World Hope World. I was sooo excited for this drop. I teared up
It’s definitely a good send off for JHope. I’m happy his dream came true- FEELIN getting to work with his idol 🤩❤️🔥🫶🏼 I wish JHope nothing but the best and I can’t wait to see him again in 2025 💜☺️
as a hobi bias and a long time cole fan seeing this sort of collab actually come into fruition was INSANE. speechless😭🫶🏽
New réaction go j Hope go j Hope 💥💥💥 and WE will be waiting for you until you Come back 💯💯🥰🥰
That ain't kpop bro. That is JHOPE
Going back to his hip hop roots
THIS IS HIP HOP
Always been a fan of J.Cole but he doesn't just collab with anyone..so I know he introduced j-hope to many hip hop fans for the first time and I just love it. Anyways, always love the content yall, all love.
I love how you guys knows the importance and terrific and the greatness and the meaning about that song, JHOPE having JCole on that song means so much to him . 💜💜💜 Collaboration of the year!!!!! Thanks 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Hi guys!!! Praying you’re enjoying Korea. I knew nothing about J Cole until I researched one of my favorite BTS songs “Born Singer”.
j.cole just literally said like "should put out the fire, or burn even brigther"
these two got the same mindset.
now i get j-hope why he likes j.cole, this is the best collaboration, and i'm happy for j-hope this is a dream come true for him.
J-hope and j.cole are legends together this was a good song it made me cry so much I couldn't stop and the people who don't know J.cole go hear his music💜🥹🥺🥹😍
He wanted to go back to his roots, that’s exactly what he did. He went from dancing to J Cole on the streets, to dancing to “on the street” *with* j Cole! Everybody is interpreting it different but from the alleyway, to the streets, to the subway, back to the streets, then to the roof. I interrupted it as BTS storyline. The rooftop is a pedestal he sees Cole on, which he eventually meets him at in the end. Alleyway is the hardships, the streets is the recognition, the subway is the brief pause in the military, then the streets when he returns, and the rooftop is when BTS unite to reach “new heights” like the top of a rooftop building 💜
I knew you two would do this mv justice! I love J Cole and J Hope’s respect for rap and this artist is so evident. Love your commentary and love this song.
the mutual respect of it all is amazing. for jhope to give so many bars to an artist he respects in his song, for j. cole to utilise all of the time he was given and put so much thought and his brilliant lyricism into every bar. like damn that's good
..i sense J Hope's passion in doing this video...J Cole seems to be a legend in hip hop nowadays..both of them form a wonderful collaboration...this video is celestial, artistically speaking. J hope's dancing is also extraordinary..it reminds me of the film Dancing in the Rain with Gene Kelly. The meeting between the 2 worlds is amazingly enriching.
Yeah man, this is absolutely legendary. It's a vibe. So good! 💜
Best reaction 👍💯 I'm a huge ARMY and Jhope fan but I'm not familiar with JCole. This is the first time I heard his rap and his lyricism. I am very impressed. Gonna go check out more of JCole's work! 💜
I’m fangirling over jcole as well, I love his music sm
Hearing and seeing "j-hope, cole world.." the best line in this song!
I was crying so much when this song went out because I looooove J. Cole so much and even when Hobi is not my bias I love him so much, I’m army since the begin and I always felt like we connected through rap 😭 and now they have a song tgt
Watched this reaction as much as I watched the MV. it's J day!💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
double J 🔥🔥🔥
I'm a fan of J.cole, his songs will always be on my playlists~
"J in the air"
it's very addictive
J Cole J Hope 🔥🔥🥰🥰
I was literally waiting all day for your reaction cuz I know y'all admire j Cole and jhope!
J hope...💜🌞🇸🇻
UMMM THIS SONG IS VERY EMOTIONAL TO ME! I was crying really hard when I first watched itz
I’be been waiting for a reaction from you guys about this video and I cannot agree more like I love how J-Hope and J. Cole served this whole track
i still cant believe it. HISTORIC!!!
honestly u guys are the like the first thing i remembered to check out on yt after i watched on the street mv lmaooo i knew u would FEAST on the collab!!
This is a legendary collab🔥🔥🔥
Love the lyrics perfect collaborations, jhope ARMY'S sunshine.
I LOVE THIS SONG 🔥 J-hope let J. Cole own this song and I respect that. He's his muse.
I think this is such a great and legendary collab. J.Cole verse is fire, J-hope's verse is short but both killed it! 🔥
I'm such a big Cole and Hope fan. I will forever live to remember the moment I first watched this song. All my nerves were active
J-cole is my favorite artist of all time as well while Jhope is my bias in kpop too so I feel your excitement. I actually started crying my first time listening to it and I still shriek everytime J-cole says; "Jhope, cole world." Cause its two huge impacts in my life joining forces and I can do nothing but sit here in awe everytime I listen or watch the mv.
Remember the lyrics from Hip Hop Phile? Jhope makes he's dream come true, JCole is his inspiration... I'm crying
This is an ICONIC MOMENT IN K-POP HISTORY
LOVE THIS SONG LOVE J HOPE AND LOVE J COLE IM PROUD OF J HOPE LOVE THIS GUY GREAT JOB BABY
They're the perfect people to collab because the depths their messages go from visuals, choreo, cinematography, culture, verses, the hip-hop instrumentals- everything is down to a T. 🔥🔥🔥
Cole giving hope to J-hope, and finally the two standing on the same rooftop is fckng heartwarming. Also it's the perfect timing too, J-hope's enlistment, J. Cole's possibly nearing retirement...my tears just flow hearing Cole's verse because it hits DOUBLE. This is the beauty of HIP-HOP 😭💗
When it comes to hip-hop you know J-hope thought about everything specially a collab with his idol? we know he worked 100x passionately to making it perfect. This is my favourite too. I'm always thinking how can J-hope top JITB then he exceeds himself every single time. I love Cole, he always makes me cry when I play him on Spotify he's just HEAVY on my heart, the rawness makes you human cuz he really makes you feel. I get so sentimental when it comes to Cole, when I'm feeling numb I play his music. I'm doing better now so it's been awhile that I do that so man when he came on, my life washes over me like a wave. I'm so glad they did this masterpiece.
I knew you two would freak so I'm loving the reaction!! 💯💯💯
Sidenote: hobi recorded a mix with just his own bars, I'd love to hear that too 🤎
Was waiting for this one, let's go fam
