RM, the leader of the global K-pop phenomenon BTS, is renowned for his profound lyricism, expressive delivery, and exceptional rap skills. Beyond his work with BTS, he has also carved out a distinctive identity through his acclaimed mixtapes. With his talent to combine introspection and music, he has cemented himself as a versatile artist.
In this latest full-length album, ‘Right Place, Wrong Person’, listeners get to see RM stretch his creative bones once more to show an even more vulnerable side than his previous album, Indigo.
Come back to me
Before revealing the title track, “Come back to me”, served as a precursor to get ARMYs and listeners alike prepared for the type of album he would be releasing. In this music video, RM experiments with alternative indie music and storytelling with the help of various talented artists such as San Yawn, Lee Sung Jin, and many more.
“Come back to me” is about finding your way back after feeling lost. These smooth and groovy beats can get listeners lost while vibing to the music.
LOST!
RM gave us another look inside his mind with the music video “LOST!” Accompanied with the many versions of himself, we follow the visual confusion and chaos. In the latest BANGTANTV upload, he expressed that this song was how he felt during the members taking a break from group activities and working on their own crafts. During this period, he had to prioritize being an artist over being the leader of BTS, leading to a sense of self-discovery and introspection.
Each song on the album offers a unique insight into RM’s artistic expression and personal journey. We highly recommend giving these other tracks a listen to add to the appreciation of RM’s musical vision.
Nuts
“Nuts” is a song about the complexities of a toxic relationship, backed by a groovy bass sound accompanied by smooth drums and unique alien like sounds. It addresses the pain, manipulation, and chaos while simultaneously wishing the person happiness after all they have been through. This aspect might even seem “nuts” or confusing, as it reflects the paradox of still wishing the best for someone after enduring so much drama.
Groin
“Groin” is a song that shows the true unfiltered feelings running in RM’s mind. In this song, he directly addresses the haters and discusses the pressures of being seen as the perfect leader, while emphasizing that he is human, like everyone else. The director, Pennacky, chose to film the music video simply to capture RM in his most authentic form. Despite its simplicity, the video showcases a quirky but charming side that pairs well with his intense rapping as he freely calls people out.
‘Right Person, Wrong Place’ showcases RM’s growth as an artist and his willingness to dive deep into his emotions and be more vulnerable to the public. It also invites listeners to reflect on themselves and empathize with any shared human experience expressed in these 11 tracks.
