“I Definitely Had A Grasp…”: BTS RM Speaks About His Inspiration For Songs

When RM from BTS talked about the inspiration he gets for his various songs

RM from BTS is well known for his appreciation of the arts. He frequently visits museums and art galleries and documents his experiences there on Instagram. South Korean rapper-songwriter-record producer Kim Nam-joon, better known by his stage name RM, is signed to Big Hit Music. He is a member of the boy band BTS and is renowned for having a significant creative and production role in the group’s records. He has two mixtapes under his own name: RM in 2015 as well as Mono in 2018.

RM discussed BTS’s success, music, and musical collaborations in an interview with Weverse Magazine. He also talked about how his love of learning about art inspired a realization about making music. RM emphasized the significance of this historical period once more in his conclusion of BTS’s first chapter. He said, “I definitely had a grasp of what this group is back in the day, but now it seems like I hit this phase where it’s impossible for me to know what the group is like or even who I am that clearly.”

RM now seeks inspiration from many sources in order to better define BTS and himself, saying, “I think I need to gather inspiration from individuals throughout the world. I have this strong yearning to absorb all the inspiration and impact the world has to offer.” RM considered the experiences he’d had in the entertainment business. He expressed his gratitude for working in an innovative field that is always developing. RM stated that songs have been increasingly shorter and that each era’s way of life has an impact on the music. Maybe this is why RM enjoys older music and strives to capture the emotion you experience when listening to an older song.
