RM releases the track-list for his “Indigo” and the featured collaborations have ARMY all feral screaming

BTS has been making 2022 a year memorable for not only the ARMY but also the music industry worldwide. From conquering the charts with their beautiful spectrum of an album, “PROOF’ with soulful ballads like “Yet To Come” and heart-thumping bangers like “Run BTS”, they have been delivering masterpieces over masterpieces.

In another set of works they have been pampering and expressing themselves through their individual ways. In June, the band announced that they would be focusing more on their solo careers. While ARMY panicked in sadness, mistaking that they would disband, the boys proved otherwise. What they meant was that they would bring out more solo projects, all the while supporting each other endlessly through it all.

Hence, after J-hope, another solo album we have now is from the leader-nim himself, RM. His much-awaited new album called “Indigo” is like a letter of him giving us a glimpse of himself, especially in a fame-surrounded situation. While the fandom is excited for an array of soul-soothing songs, the artists’ RM collaborating in this album is driving fans ABSOLUTELY CRAZY.

From Erykah Badu to Tablo, he has them all.

The third song in the album, “Still Life” is with BTS’s dearest friend, Anderson Paak. An accomplished and talented rapper, singer, and songwriter, he and his family make the perfect story of fans-to-colleagues-to-friends. While both Anderson and Tannies have met and had fun, the former even being singled out by his own family when they met the latter because they were too busy being smitten by the seven members of the band. But, that’s just the BTS effect. Hence, a collaboration was oncoming. Here’s to more Anderson Paak-BTS moments!

For the fourth track on his album, RM collaborated with a person he admires greatly. Tablo, the Korean-Canadian legend from the group Epik High, has been reigning hearts for a very long time, laying down paths for future idols as a legacy. One of them was RM too. Hence, when it came to choosing an artist with who he could collaborate on his album, he went for a person who he always looked up to, Tablo.
