[rainstormraider.livejournal.com]

MNEK is pronounced Manikay, right?

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

nope just like the letters. Em En Ee Kay . M-N-E-K

[rainstormraider.livejournal.com]

Are you sure? Coz I could’ve sworn he was on MTV Canada or Much Music or something and they were pronouncing it as Manikay.

Edit:
Oh wait it’s his last name! Duh! Sorry!
I guess I was just imagining it!

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

that's prob how he came up with the stage name tbh!

[rainstormraider.livejournal.com]

I had him confused with iLoveMakonnen too!
What is wrong with me!!!

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

I love MNEK<33
He's so talented!
I hope this is great exposure for this KING.
Now, I'm exited to hear this album...


And yes Tongue is iconic.

I'm so excited, I've wanted an MNEK kpop song for ages (https://omonatheydidnt.livejournal.com/19645049.html?thread=1397399929#t1397399929)!

[bethmai.livejournal.com]

damn did you have this bookmarked?

[buckleyourboots.livejournal.com]

Google finds everything!

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

bless your premonition!

[bethmai.livejournal.com]

Now this is exciting.

Tho it's sad that a lot of BTS kids are getting annoyed cos this entire album hasn't been crafted from their own hands, forgetting that pop is so collaborative. The fact that they can get input from producers/songwriters of this calibre is so huge - it can't be underestimated.

We've all seen how crazy busy they've been so it makes sense that they couldn't do everything themselves. They're still a pop group and there's nothing wrong with using outside help as long as it benefits the final product (and let's hope it will!). They often got co-credits on a lot of songs but really you often never know exactly how much of it is the members vs someone else anyway (unless it's lyrics or something)

*listens to Tongue*

I am so intrigued to hear Paradise now!

[swhyeon1991.livejournal.com]

(Annoying ARMY voice) We don't listen to kpop, we only listen to gaypop!!!!!!!11

[queenhinata.livejournal.com]

[yxerin.livejournal.com]

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

It's ok! He's not that big as an artist himself but he's done a lot of really great writing and production work ^_^ He's finishing up his debut album now.

[yxerin.livejournal.com]

well UPDATE now that the album got released lol paradise is a bonafide jam so i’m definitely gonna keep an eye on this dude

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

yay he's wonderful and seems like such a genuine talent and good person. how they managed to make J-Hope sound sexy idek cuz that was something I didn't expect to even think in 2018.

[thebloomroom.livejournal.com]

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]
