is Tao working on a solo album?

[punkylana.livejournal.com]

Wang Yi News posted pictures of Tao on a dance studio and according to their sources he's being cooped up at the recording studio or the dance studio and he's preparing for an album in the U.S.

Exo fans are freaking out and some of them are accusing Tao of being the next Meryl Streep. Apparently he "faked" and "lied" about all of his injuries even though there's evidence and a record of his injuries in the last 3 years.














☆ Tao no longer listed as an active member on EXO-M’s Facebook page ☆



It has come to our attention that SM Entertainment removed member Tao from EXO-M’s official Facebook page.

On July 6th, fans discovered that alteration on the page information section of their official Facebook page. It was spotted that only the remaining members Chen, Lay and Xiumin were listed under the group. However it was also found out that some of the information remained unchanged in the biogprahy section as it still includes Tao, along with other member, Luhan.

Since hinting on his possible departure from SM Entertainment back in May due to personal and health reasons, Tao is revealed to be still under negotiations with his agency. Meanwhile, he continues with his own activities in China through a number of endorsements and recording sessions in his own studio.

[punkylana.livejournal.com]

lmaoo noo, it was my redaction. i've seen a lot exo stans saying tao was acting and his injuries were fake because of this article + pics, that's the reason of the meryl streep mention lol :(

[turtles-tszx.livejournal.com]

Idk tao bbb, let ur leg heal properly before doing anything..

[punkylana.livejournal.com]

[algaee.livejournal.com]

wishing him success. his tour thru ca's theme parks was cute to see

[leighbee333.livejournal.com]

Where did he go besides Disneyland? lol

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

Welp...this saga is anticlimactic because we expected him to leave but if Tao is the first to release an album it would be hilarious.

Also come off it EXO fans...you KNOW Tao's injuries were real though if a person says they are hurt they do not have to justify that shit to anyone. I just hope he let himself fully heal before getting started.

[kjc48.livejournal.com]

He totally will.
Track 3 will have a Kris rap feature (swag will be said multiple times), and track 7 will be a soft pop-rap ballad with Luhan lending his vocals.

This is not a fanfict, this is Taoism vol. 1 (no offence to real Taoist) in stores this August.

omg do is out here getting put in wheelchairs and this betraydol is acting like zayn malik??!!

[punkylana.livejournal.com]

tao is behind his accident of course! smh @ tao and his blackmagic.mp3! he needs to get it together but no wait, maybe he worked with suho! he didn't protect him! bad leader! :) x !!!

The irony that right below this post is one about D.O getting injured.
Next Meryl Streep indeed.He's been injured-er- faking it (rme) since their debut night, wow.
I hope he's proceeding with caution and only doing as much as his body can currently handle.

[kwonsoonyoung.livejournal.com]

lol after what his and some krust, and lucas' stans did all this time, pulling the 'can't u see? his injury is so bad that he can't walk!1 he needs like 6 months for his legs to recover!" and then he went to disneyland like once in every weeks and they were like "just because he's injured, he can't walk and enjoy the fresh air of LA?!" and then he was spotted practicing in a recording studio and they went "sitting at a studio isn't as strenuous as being an EXO member who dances all the time! dancing can worsen his injuries but not if he only sings!"

and now that he's practicing his dancing for his new album i wonder what card would they pull again.

but afterall, i'm kinda curious with this album i hope the album has some english tracks!

[algaee.livejournal.com]

what?

maybe having control over ur own life can be good for ur health, who knew

[epona.livejournal.com]

if you told me at the beginning of last year that tao would have the shadiest exit from exo...

[kwonsoonyoung.livejournal.com]

lmao mte.. but even if tao is more fake, krust is still the shadiest!

[mysterygal-re.livejournal.com]

I hope he does well :') He seems like a very determined and positive kid.

Also SMH at people still thinking he is faking / faked his injuries.

[atopworld.livejournal.com]

It doesn't take much. I've already seen the new names for those that shall not be spoken of. Whomever came up with them didn't even try and if that was the point, it's still just sad....lol.

[atopworld.livejournal.com]

Zitao Malik!!!!

Lol, but seriously this is....weird?

[klauses.livejournal.com]

looking forward to it baby panda <3

[myshamespiral.livejournal.com]

It amazes me to see people pulling this fake injury card when most of Exo has sustained injuries throughout their entire career with Zitao's being documented even from debut. So yes, let's pretend the members aren't dropping like flies. Let's pretend that the very life looks to be drained from the remaining members. Let's continue to pretend that Tao and the others who have left are the problem so that you can continue to be entertained uninterrupted.

I'm so proud of Tao. I wish him nothing but success in whatever he puts his mind to. He's honestly been through enough and paid his dues.

[mysterygal-re.livejournal.com]

I love all the Zayn references in this post, ZAYNTAO collabo 2015

[atopworld.livejournal.com]

LMAOO ZAYNTAO.

[haixiao.livejournal.com]

i have no idea what to expect from him w this solo album business but i'm excited anyway

[kjc48.livejournal.com]

kinda ot: some troll in a previous EXO post pointed out that all the rich Chinese members left (I don't really know if Kris is rich but a lot of signs point towards it). I only bring it up because I really do believe lack of fiance is the only reason Lay has to stay in EXO, and it's sad to think that nepotism is the only way out of the hell hole that is EXO.

[torontok.livejournal.com]

Kris isn't from a rich background,he was raised by a single mom and he describes his family as middle class.He was raised by his grandparents for some time because his mom was working and he lived alone in China for a period of time because his mom went to work there before emigrating to Canada.And I think he spent some time alone in Canada when his mom went back to China to work.

[torontok.livejournal.com]

Why is no one asking the most important question aka will Tao finally give us the Kris diss track of our dreams?

2.0

[kjc48.livejournal.com]

[pinkwingsblack.livejournal.com]

it's offensive that people would even think that tao 'faked' his injuries. i know there are some really stubborn people out there who don't even believe the truth when it's thrown in their faces, but tao's been physically injured (as well as other exo members) so much that it's infuriating.

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

Denial is a permanent state of existence for some fans...they just want the puppets to dance on the string for them

[koibira.livejournal.com]

wait..is he still under sm?

[violoncelliste.livejournal.com]

pretty sure sm doesn't know either

[lolylen.livejournal.com]

i always loved his parts in exo songs even the singing so this could be real good or be terrible it all depends on the production work.look at kris for an example.
it says "world class production quality" so i guess i can have some hopes on this.

lmao @ ppl still going around w "look at him faking his injuries" i guess hating is easier than accepting the truth.
the level of delusion ppl r willing to go thru for their fave group always impresses me.
but then again there used to be some tao fans who hated krishan for their exist before all of this happened so this is a bit funny ngl.


when will luhan give me an album tho

[torontok.livejournal.com]

Forreal, why is Luhan not the new prince of cantopop yet? there's only so many times I can loop Tian Mi Mi

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

Wow...I honestly cannot believe after all this there are still EXO fans who are so far in denial they place the blame on the members leaving and not SM's raggedy ass

Hello...if Tao went from the #1 "We Are One" EXO stan and posting hate messages about Kris for leaving to getting the hell out of dodge himself what does that tell you about SM's management and treatment of EXO?

[haixiao.livejournal.com]

ia
tao doesn't seem like the kind of person who would have a change of heart and decide to leave just bc he got bored

[chomper-go-rawr.livejournal.com]

I"m glad Tao feels better but with how bad those injuries were I didn't expect his recovery this soon o.o

[bebetama.livejournal.com]

I'm ready for whatever it is :D So excited!

People who are accusing him of faking his injuries are the people who only reads news like this one without checking what happened bts. Those that follow his activities know the extent of his injuries.

It's been 5 months since he tore his ligament and 3 months since he relapsed/left Korea. Obviously he gotten better after rest and proper treatment.
