    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've been listening to albums from various languages of various genres and cultures. they're yet to surpass the sheer excellency indigo shows. You have to be an ARTIST not just a performer to be able to flip the genres and play with them with each and every song and make the features the perfect fit. RM's incredible understanding of music, human nature and art amongst a million other factors definitely made this a once in a life time album. In a time and era where 2 or 2:30 min long songs are reigning based off of tiktok virality, indigo is a perfect blow to all the fakeness in the music industry. Also this man is a poet. Lyrics are anything but life changing. Hats off to RM… Expand

    Indigo is a beautiful multi-genre album. Kim Namjoon also known as RM of BTS delves into his inner thoughts and shares them beautifully in this album while experimenting with new genres. The album is a work of art perfect for a walk, a coffee break, a ride on the train, while reading a book. enjoy

If you really listen to and know BTS, know the members - they are very consistent to their sincerity with what they wanted to convey to their audience, to their fans - ARMY. They love music, truly, and they work hard for it. My favorite track on INDIGO album is Wild Flower. Its a powerful song. And imagine the blend of Youjeen's voice. I felt like all my worries and emotions exploded so bright in the sky. Wild Flower is magical. I love all the tracks but if I will choose my favorite - it's Wild Flower. I am still on a mission to understand INDIGO album. We know Namjoon. Everything has a reason why it's there. Plus, this is his record like for 3-4yrs right? It will take time to digest all of this. All in all, on my 1st, listen and stream - INDIGO is wonderful. Magnificent! Thank you Namjoon!… Expand

    Considero que vale totalmente escuchar el álbum de principio a fin, posteriormente leer las traducciones de las letras de cada canción es lo que termina de cerrar el significado que creo que el artista intenta transmitir, se ve que es uno de los pocos artistas que hace música valga la redundancia a partir del "arte"

    Indigo is a lovely journey from beginning to end. In the streaming platforms there is no option to randomize the songs in the album, and the artist's purpose with this is to take us on a journey of emotions. This album features many artists that shows RM's different sides and talents. I love this album very much, and it accompanies me during my days.

    This album is a beautiful story from start to finish. RM takes you on a journey through his 20s, and each song reflects a new piece of himself. My favourite track is All Day, which he performs with Tablo from Epik High, one of his heroes. The title track Wildflower is heart-wrenching and empowering at the same time. I highly recommend this album.

    I can't get enough of this roller coaster ride through RM's heart and soul. Wildflower alone makes this album more than worth the price of admission, and each song is a little curveball that reminds you that Kim Namjoon is one of the most underrated lyricists around. Just like with mono., he's made an album that I can't see splitting up for playlists. I need the whole thing every time!

    Yeah I been goin’, no matter what’s in front

    그게 뭐가 됐건 [dwaetgeon]
    No matter what it is

    새벽의 옷자락을 붙잡고 뭔가 토해내던 기억 [gieok]
    Memories of letting things out, grabbing the edge of dawn by its collar

    목소리만 큰 자들의 사회 [sahoe]

    And I still speak silence

    이건 방백 [bangbaek], 완숙한 돛단배 [dotdanbae]
    This is an aside, a sailboat that came to full maturity

    모든 오해 [ohae] 편견들에 닿게 [datge]

    Ay 행복이란 뭘까 [mwolkka]
    Ay, what would be happiness

    그토록 바래왔던 작은 평화 [pyeonghwa]

The album itself it’s really good.A thing that I like about it is that their is not just one specific genre on the album their is multiple.Every single track has its own genre.I feel like that makes the album 10x better.When u listen to indigo from top to bottom a different vibe will come from every single track.RM did amazing on his 1st ever album, I won’t surprise if he breaks records from indigo honestly he deserves it for making an amazing album.Good job RM!… Expand

    This album best describes RM's peptic and thoughtful lyrics. The production and instrumentation is splendid with elements of jazz, funk and rock blending along with RM raps.
    It's beautiful, cohesive, amazing, thoughtful.

    The lyrics are so very deep and touch on hard real emotions that connect with the listener. RM is a lyrical genius and I highly recommend this album.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Indigo is the archive of Namjoon's 20s this is not just an album it's his memories feelings and diaries every word carries a huge wheight lifted off his shoulders...for me personally the music i connect with the most is the one that takes me on a journey of emotions and images i felt that with every song of indigo the way it flows reflecting his soul and adding to that the color associated with this album with the image of "still life" it creares a unique masterpiece And when it comes to his lyrics he's simply a genius he always manage to bring in a new prespective and show us something so familiar like the "still life" in a very different light and that blows my mind Just like when he described the waves in "don't" his words just give me goosebumps
    Not so many artist have the effect that Namjoon has on me he makes my brain work in a different way his wordplay makes every song more and more interesting just like a painter adding layers and layers to the canvas when you hear it at first you get a certain feeling and once you read the lyrics it takes you deeper and then you get to understand all the hidden meaning and the stories behind every song losing the sense of time and place admiring the painting infront of you that change with every layer of the song Listening to indigo inspired me to look at art in a new perspective and appreciate Namjoon more and more i'm grateful that there is an artist that can make me feel so much and connect to their art to this level someone who can move my emotions and open my mind to so many different genres and interduce so many artists from different backgrounds in one album the diversity and art that he put in the album is insane and the most important thing that he was able to speak his truth and expand his discography to the range that it covers all the stories he wanted to tell and all the emotions he kept within him for the past 7 years i will always be grateful to be able to enjoy music again thanks to him thank you Namjoon    … Expand

    This is an album that is truly timeless and will be enjoyed for generations to come. The main single 'Wild Flower' is a curious choice as it is over 4 minutes long and in almost all Korean, both aspects which would make most musicians hesistant to include let alone make the single, in this era of streaming and quick TikTok trends. But this just proves that music, and lyrics are what is at heart of RM's artistry. A stark difference in what we see nowadays. A special mention should be given to Change Pt.2, a personal favourite. A rollercoaster of emotion, the different dynamic and vibe to the rest of the album, it is refreshing and also leaves you wanting more.

    Some moments fall flat – Lonely is cloying, paint-by-numbers EDM-pop that doesn’t fully land. Still, Indigo is a polished collection that spans both pop and rap with confidence.
