Recently Rose won SOTY (APT) at the VMA which is an extremely great feat, especially by a kpop idol, which I am extremely happy for, APT was a collaboration with Bruno Mars, did Bruno play a huge role in the song and its popularity? Yes, he did, that is one of the reason the song has won, why are some people disregarding the fact that Rose also played a huge role in it? Both of them are signed under the same Label, Atlantic records. Ever since Rose had won the VMA, many people (I'm looking a particular fandom here), saying she only won the SOTY, because BTS was inactive for 2+ years. Almost every comment underneath her videos are saying she won cause BTS "paved" the way, and that she won because of BTS paving the way, can we please stop including another group underneath another artists success ? Calling her a Bruno Mars "plus one" is ridiculous... I am so fed up, with all this bs against Blackpink, why? The audacity to call Blackpink nugus like seriously? Saying the nomination was bought cause apparently according to these people, APT wasn't charting, that song was everywhere on every social media platform, wdym it did not chart, they've got to be serious, and that the engagement came from this "BTS paved the way for the whole of kpop"...I'm not hating on BTS, or ARMY , but seriously why do they have to bring that c into every single conversation? That fandom is acting as if, having a collaboration is a bad thing...Even BTS has done multiple collabs with western artists, so why is wrong when BP (Rose) does it? Apparently without BTS, Rose is nothing, tf? Saying that BTS opened the way for the VMA? Now I am not disregarding the fact that BTS have won multiple times at the VMAs , good for them and the fandom, I don't get why ARMYs have to include BTS under BP's success.. its very childish at this point, when the artists themselves don't have a problem, why are fandoms always fighting? | I might get downvoted but oh well, drop your thoughts below submitted by /u/ContextTurbulent3054 [link] [comments]
