RM got inspiration for the song by the final speech of President Barack Obama where he dropped the mic saying he has nothing else to say. Also the full version of the song has dance break at the end, you should watch the live performance of the song (MAMA 2017 or stage mix recommended).

bighit/hybe and bts have a really good relationship, members always praise and thank their company and staff

Yes they're relationship with they're company is really good

- VERY well caught with the microphones! Almost noone notices the direction they're pointed at. - After the explosion the haters are actually falling from the sky (their high horse/piedestal?) while burning in the background. - Mic Drop is kind of considered the fifth Cypher. It's their last general diss song which is why they say that it's the last farewell because they were just over and done with the haters at this point. - You should definitely check out the rap line's Cyphers 1-4 because they. were. breathing. fire., the word play is on a whole other level and when in order they tell a story of how their attitudes changed along the way. They're pure *chef's kiss* - They do have a really good relationship with their company. They even go for a drink or cook with their boss Bang PD sometimes and when Big Hit bought Ithaca (now Hybe) last year he made sure that they were given stocks in the corporation but kept them "safe" under Big Hit's label. (Btw, Jin would've been so proud of you for that joke. 😂)

omg the ratatouille line! you're so smart! I always thought it was just a fun diss line but your interpretation makes SO much sense

Check out the CYPHERS you won't be disappointed

I highly recommend the rise of bantan. You'll know how good their company to them 🙂

On April 2, 2021, it was announced that Ithaca Holdings, including Big Machine, would be sold to the South Korean music and entertainment firm Hybe Corporation (formerly Big Hit Entertainment)

I feel you about Steve's hair, I am always so envious of him🤧

fun fact: the transitions where they cut between 2 (for example dance) scenes and match the people's movements are called Jump Cuts. they are one of my favourite types of transitions ever, sooo effective and punch-y :D

This is the first song/video I ever heard by BTS, just by accident stumbling around on KZfaq, and I was instantly HOOKED. It's what started my rabbit hole journey a few years ago. Because who else was doing this in music? Amazing beats, lyrics, & choreo simultaneously??? I didn't even LIKE hip-hop (or rap) back then, and I don't understand Korean, but BTS introduced me to a whole new world. FWIW, you glossed over 'foot, foot, watch it; mouth, mouth, watch it lyrics (perhaps because it needed no explanation) but I take it to be a warning similar to the English expression 'to put your foot in your mouth' - IOW, "don't say something you'll regret later, haters"! LOL

i think i read that the "signs up" refers to all the haters who later became fans and held signs up at concerts

The diss tracks of BTS are top tier. The word plays are just off the charts. As a person who enjoys rap because of them, I can attest that Cyphers 1-4, Ddaeng, and other diss tracks are just nothing short of excellence. Love your reaction as always!💜

your videos always make me feel like i'm showing an amazing friend bts, you're so conversational and relatable, thank you for putting your content out there 💜✨ ahhh your walk through hair-memory lane was amazing!!! also i'd like to request context for the picture with the harry potter cake 😭

they have more aggressive songs than Mic Drop lol

Bts' diss tracks are on another level. Though they aren't really directed at someone it sends a message to all their antis. And like Suga also said that they don't write the lyrics about anyone in particular but if someone takes offence then it's their problem. You should check out ddaeng and ugh and even the cyphers. They are the top tier diss tracks

First hope you are ok after saying you hurt yourself. 2nd can't help but love it here your breakdowns will forever be unmatched. The way you submerge yourself in the art is pretty amazing

As always liked your reaction.💜. Btw you are beautiful. And I forgot to mention BTS now has 784 awards in total 🤩,most awarded group in the world

8:39 i am new to reading all the lyric interpretations. i have to say, it actually IS worth reading the rest of that paragraph, AMAZING!

As an ARMY who can NEVER do the lyrics on the first watch because I get caught up on the visuals... I appreciate you stopping and doing the lyrics, I relate so hard lol

Back in the days this song was new I remember being obsessed with it. Then, you know what happened I mean I wasn’t a huge fan of BTS. But NOW that I’m planning on stanning them for real and so watching all your vids about them, this one just reminded me how obsessed I was and will again be with this song!! + the meaning, and the mv is incredible! Thank you THANK YOU LIS 😭😭❤️❤️

love your reactions^-^

Damn! Your interpretation/explanation of the lyrics are so insightful! :) thank you lol

Your makeup is always awesome but I love the look today 💜

Eagerly waiting for Cypher series reaction and Ddaeng reaction and MAMA 2017 PERFORMANCE

Haha, you remind me of Jin a lot with your dad jokes! He always drops a pun and then proceeds to laugh at his own joke - his laugh is so infectious, you can't help but burst out laughing too. Oh, you're gonna love it once you get into their more funny side. They're such goofballs all the time Great video! You nice, keep going 💜

their new anthology album proof will be out june 10th!

21:51 NOT THE HARRY POTTER CAKE, IM DYING XD

That joke was really good and totally in Jin's ally

PLEASE REACT TO BTS HARDSHIPS 2013 - 2021 BY XCELESTE AND HOW BTS PAVED THE WAY BY BBYGANGMAG

are you going to watch the shooting sketches (behind the scenes) of the MVs?👀 not sure if it's your thing but I always find them super interesting + sooometimes members actually say something about what's happening in the MV

bts have a song thats called silver spoon, an absolute intellectual bop ratatouille is peasants food its origin comes from farmers its not an expensive fancy meal (someones gotta rewatch the movie lololol), saying that someone is a tastless ratatouille...i would interpret it as youre the bare minimum that everyone can have and even fuck that up. also i second the person who recommended the fanmade docu series rise of bangtan it covers bts history so nicely as well as covers some things about kpop industry that pepole wont know. nice reaction as usual! this song has 3 version, the first one is more in korean so some of the lyrics are different, then this and then one with a desiiner feature :D they really milked this banger, as they should. all mvs also have making of on yt btw

Liz we wanna tiktok coplution👀pleasee

You are so good at discerning the meanings. Love your reactions. 💜

Always love your reaction! And the rap line wrote their own rap verse/lines, they generally do. As others already mentioned, you should check out the stage performance of Mic Drop - it's amazing how they brought it to the stage.

Great... Vidéo food réaction though 🤣💜 ohmymymy 💜 And Say hi to you lis Outhere too 💜🙏

I think you DO need to read the explanations when they are extrapolating on Korean culture/sayings/phenomena and the possible different translation. sometimes some GREAT lines (like the grape one) are translated much simpler just for the sake of being understood by English speakers so it would be sad for you to miss the chefs-kiss lyricism because of that. because, after all, it's still a TRANSLATION and discarding that info you are kind of saying that you don't care what they actually said 😅 basically, you can just skim the text to see if it's about meaning or about translation/Korean things and skip if it's just about the song interpretation. you can do whatever you want of course but I think it would be totally reasonable to do it like that since you want to do your own interpretation but at the same time ignoring the double translations or references can lead you down a totally wrong path 🤗

Since you mentioned that you plan to watch Carpool Karaoke, I just wanted to let you know that it almost always gets blocked. You'll probably have to blur it or do something to it to get it through on here. I'm excited to see your reaction to it, but I just wanted to save you the headache so you can be prepared!

live versions of this have amazing dance breaks, the choreography practice video is great too

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Nothing compares to BTS’ diss tracks. They’re so intense and artistic. RM puts his smart wordplays in both English and Korean which is so good. No one is on their level honestly. There is a TinyTAN version of Mic Drop and it’s so cute. Please check it out. I love how you break down lyrics, Lis. You nice. Keep going! 🫰🏼💜

Mic drop gonna be forever lit asf 🛐🛐

너무이뻐용❤

these were the lyrics for the remix, i recommend looking at lyrics for the original version too, some lines are different and there is more korean, there is also a version with desiigner where suga and j-hope sing some of rm's lines

Guess who owns Big Machine Labels now? Answer: Hybe Entertainment (aka Big Hit).

WHY ARE YOU SO SMART WELL I MEAN THE GOD OF ANALYZING (×(÷€÷*×(×

you should hear rappers in cyphers and on their mixtapes

Liz can you do reaction in them Tiktok compilation?, please 💜

i have to say again that you will have so much fun with hyyh/bu one day, please learn on your own and do not watch explanation videos, i recommend landon mark's roadmap for when you get there, he has everything listed chronologically
