" a chorus you might belt out in the bars of Ibiza"...? Just say it's about sex and be done with it, Rolling Stone...

Finally we get a chance to catch our breaths!

What's mind-blowing is that he can just wander around Tokyo going unnoticed on the trains, etc

All country music boy bands look and sound the same...

I thought that was Jason Aldean

I'm guessing that's why they didn't want the location disclosed- sounds like it was almost private property, or at least very limited access. Sounds like you enjoyed the day anyway. I wonder if that restaurant is the one they took Jimin's friends to.

If only it were something as simple as plain racism, not that racism is ever 'simple'. This crap is way beyond racism and comes from the heart of the whole Tr*mp cult, anti-democracy, anti-civil rights, anti-immigrant, pro-gun, pro-authoritarian garbage movement. Not by itself, but if the cult zombies figure out streaming and radio play, it won't take much. There's deep pockets and fanatical intent behind it.

Has this been posted yet? [NEWS]

Speaking of which, I just saw this sickener: I don't want to kick off a political firestorm on the Planet but suffice to say, the wrong people suddenly decided to make a point by using political donor funds to inflate Aldean's sales...

I told him he did great today, but I can't stay to watch the whole live I think it was about a week after ? Maybe I'm wrong, too

Vampires are kind of a theme for his generation, tbh. He grew up with Twilight, remember

I'm working my way through all the different mixes of Seven. So far I like the festival mix best, and the visualizer for the nighttime mix has bats flying across the moon against a blood-red sky, which is cracking me up. I guess JK was going for a cute vampire vibe? Anyway, it's a bit silly. And the lo-fi version reminds me of those jazz cafe background music YouTube channels. Island mix is okay, nothing special.

So tbf, no one else in the world should care about it, but the US is stil the biggest music market so I guess. They make # ! on the Japan charts all the time - second largest market.

it's definitely a challenge! It's apparently one of the most difficult languages in the world to learn

as someone who grew up with mandatory French - English bilingualism, I can't even begin to fathom this. Two years in France to learn patisserie or wine-making, sure. Just to speak the language? No.

100%. The romanized spelling doesn't help either, b/c the sounds don't actually match the way they're spelled. For example, the 'eo' in 'seok' isn't pronounced as 'ee-oh' or 'ehh-oh', which is the way an English speaker would read it. It's pronounced halfway between the 'oh' sound in 'sock' and the 'uh' sound 'suck' . Don't get me started on consonants...

I wish they weren't limiting the Geffen stuff to US only. If they let Canada buy, it'd enhance the numbers by a lot

They did this with Dynamite, too. Dropped a whole playlist of remixes, which were then used in a lot of their other material as BG music etc. JK is gunning for the top. Golden maknae.

OMG!!!!! I hope you get it!!!! Also, I think I found out why JK chose Latto: it has to be the wings. Y'all know how much he loves chicken. Well look who has a literal fried chicken wing collab -> https://people.com/latto-talks-wingstop-meal-working-with-jungkook-exclusive-7563590

Oh I didn't even bother. Flights from here are impossible right now - ridiculous expensive AND super inconvenient routes/schedules. I'm sorry you couldn't get anything. On the other hand, the queue was apparently more than 100,000 people long. Only one in every 3 or every 4 could even have gotten a ticket. The Stationhead party got a bit chaotic because the crowd who always spam the Weverse lives with weird 💩 finally found their way in. But that did result in this: https://twitter.com/JJK_Times/status/1682022100239015937?t=Hcm1RdVp7i2W-cnpwDMFkg&s=19

There's actually a provision in my union contract for taking sabbatical leave, but it involves pro-rating four years of salary over 5, which would put me in dire straits vis-a-vis paying my mortgage. In other words, money is the answer.

Cripes, that's saying something. I know a bunch of food items and all of five other words

Tip to make learning the Korean alphabet easier: try learning Japanese first. After 3 alphabets and thousands of kanji to memorise, learning the phonetic symbols that make up hangul seems infinitely easier🤣

In the K-Pop on Spotify interview, he said he asked for a shortlist of suggestions and picked Latto from that group.

Keep in mind, pieces like this are normally made in limited numbers. 'Sold out' might mean less than 500 pieces, or only a few dozen. Still a lot of people willing to pay that much, though.
