However, while the music is beautiful and captivating, it is given considerable more colour when paired with the underlying concepts. It reminds us that art cannot exist in a vacuum. The context behind it (personal, cultural, historical, etc) will always work to increase or decrease the value and relevance of the piece. The artist's love for music and visual art shines through in Indigo. Each song is like an excerpt from a journal exploring familiar topics using a new genre with each track, giving every song it's own colour, contrast, saturation and hue. It shows off incredible range and a willingness to explore different sides of music with various collaborators who add their own flavour to the mix. It truly captures the feeling of youth and adulthood; that awkward period of one's 20s where you are expected to grow into your own as a grown-up while feeling utterly lost in the inexperience of youth.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well, this album is indeed an exhibition, every song has its own style, colors and topic!
    Yun and how he explain his wish to be a human before being an artist, and how he represent the pain of people who are trying to find their own way, also Erykah vocals add up beauty to the whole scene as a senior

    Still life and the funky track with anderson paak, represent his revolution againt those who try to fit him in a frame! He is still life but he move forward! And his hard work that got him this wealth!

    All Day with rapper Tablo of epik high, such a dope song! Super energetic and uplifting e.g. the part “get you a** of the bench and start warm up, you gotta fight when they say behave, we got dynamite in our DNA”

    4th track, Forg-tful, about how engaging into life issues make someone forget important thinngs about him self and his close people, and how you can use forgetfulness to protect your self from pain, with kim Sawol sweet vocals and the guitar strings, such a beautiful mix

    Closer, is one of my favourite tracks, the romanticism and pain in it, OMG it’s great song, lyrically and vocally, it talks about how he wants to get closer to a person but things just are not going right! Still he is so attached to that person! With Paul blanco and Mahalia you will fall in love with this song sor sure

    Change pt.2, one of the two song on the album that are performed by RM alone, one of the powerful songs, RM talks about how everything in the world including him is changing, people he knew things he liked, his personality!

    Lonely, is the second song performed totally by RM, he talks about the loneliness, him being trapped into himself and feeling like everything is shrinking around him, and how he want to get to where he feels home getting sick of areas and people he doesn’t belong to

    Hectic, with Colde, tha track talk about him trying to find a motivation to keep going, getting sick of the repetitive life and talks people keep saying, but he just can’t help but to love Seoul his second hometown

    Wild flower, the title track, one of the most amazing songs that shows his creativityas a portbeside being a rapper, it’s really heart breaking yet beautiful, I think I cried when I read the lyrics, with the greatest vocals bt Youjeen, it feels like his soul is talking through her windpipes. Words can’t really describe how beautiful this song is, but It really deserve to be the title, actually for me Yun and Wild flower are the tracks that show RM amazing poetry the most

    No.2 is the last but not the least track on the album, it’s such an amazing way to end the album with, after all the topics he discussed in his song, from fear to love to hate to oast to present and future, he ended up saying that everything we did is “your best” at that time and like a warm pat to say stop overthinking about the last just look forward and no looking back anymore
    I hope my review helps you, give Indigo alot of love     … Expand

    Indigo is such an introspective and powerful work, which is something that does not surprise me from RM.

The fact that he managed to add so many different genres in a single album while not losing a single inch of cohesion and flow through the tracks is impressive in on itself, but add that to the incredibly organic feeling collaborations of an absolute star packed team of artists, that each contribute such a unique and personal touch to the pieces and the lyricism from which RM has been known for his entire career...And you just have a recipe for a masterpiece.

    RM, his first mixtape, was already great. I thought Mono, his second one, was his pinnacle, an absolute crazy playlist I play to this day on repeat on the worst of days to seek comfort, but I have been proven wrong. Indigo is miles ahead of what Mono was and I never thought I would ever say that.

    Which only leaves me with a deep desire to see where he'll take us next, because I know no matter where that is, it's going to be absolutely remarkable.    … Expand

But I opened my mind and ears to this record because I admire and appreciate BTS and RM (whose earlier tracks Seoul and Bicycle are on heavy rotation with me).

    This is a thoughtful, deep, and ultimately optimistic and positive album that takes the listener behind the scenes of the life of a megastar. The subject matter alone makes it interesting to listen to, but it's deepened and raised in quality by both the musical composition and the collaborators such as Erykah Badu and Korean artists I am discovering for the first time. As I have seen with BTS's music in many instances, reading the Korean lyrics in translation opens the door to some very deep and intense feelings and ideas that I am drawn to. So it's worth giving the translation a close read before and during listening. However, I have to add that to someone who doesn't speak the language, it is equally possible just to listen to Korean as a musical instrument of its own and just hear the resonant beauty of the syllables going by (once you read a quick translation of the words so you know the basic meaning).

    The music video and track of "Wildflower" is addictive and compelling on a deep level. I can't stop thinking about the lines (in English): "No name, that's what I have/No shame, I'm on my grave." (the earth). The song rises to an ethereal and stirring conclusion that I don't think I'll get over for a long time. For this song alone I would recommend the album but "Forgetful" and "Still Life" and every other track on the album is top shelf and makes me so excited to hear what else RM will say on future solo works as he goes through his life. I hope I live long enough to hear them all.    … Expand

    I have always been a fan of Namjoon's lyrics. He has such a unique way of bending and using words to create poetry to music. His Persona intro is my personal favorite of his.

On Indigo, my faves are Yun, Change, Pt.2, Lonely, and Hectic. Still life is so fun to listen to- I love the analogy of standing still, yet moving along. If there is any song that I'm not quite as fond of, it's Wild Flower. I love the lyrics, however, eujeen's sometimes out of pitch loud singing was hard on my ears at first. Nothing against her music or singing ability- she has a beautiful voice. I just didn't understand why she sang like that. Now, as I listen to the song more, I'm beginning to understand the emotionality of her unique style of singing and how it fits with the lyrics and narrative Namjoon is singing about. Wildflower a beautiful song, full of hope, regrets and longing, yet it also speaks to the desperation, loneliness, anger, and fear about certain choices one makes in life-especially when one is just starting out as an adult. The ups and downs of seeing the real world as it is, which is not always perfect. To me, it's about deciding where one fits in that imperfect world. Something we all deal with as adults. The interesting bit to me, is that at 66, I still have those feelings navigating life! I just wasn't as wise as Joon seems to be when I was his age. I am glad I gave myself time to listen to Indigo over and over, relishing in the messages and feelings he wanted to portray about his life. Thank you.… Expand

I'm thankful for all the wisdom he is inviting listeners to receive from his experiences and his research. As someone also reaching the end of their 20s, I find the lyrics comforting and relatable as he navigates feelings like loneliness, hatred, and betrayal. Listeners are reminded throughout to move forward, to choose life over death, and given affirmations despite any regrets or frustrations they may have. I also appreciate how this album highlights the work and talents of his artist friends, peers, and music industry legends whom he respects and have mutual respect for him.

    Wildflower, the title track, provides a window into the pain that comes with fame and challenges with identity as RM attempts to reconcile his passion and drive. I am in awe of all that is packed into this album. It offers wonderful and raw sounds with profound introspection. There is something here for all audiences. And I'm of the belief that if something did not immediately resonate that later revisits may invoke a slow, silent stirring which may culminate into some connection or epiphany.

From neo-soul and folk to city pop, the album takes you on ride through his struggles and how he deals with them successfully one day at a time one emotion at a time. No matter your age it is relatable though it is about him moving through his 20's into his 30's. He closes out the album with a song where he collaborates with Park Ji-Yoon and reminds us not to dwell on the past, no looking back. I strongly recommend getting translations of the lyrics to fully grasp how amazing and unique this album is. Choosing one song to listen to half way won't even begin to give you the gist of this masterpiece.… Expand

    Este álbum es sencillamente una pieza de arte, Namjoon quiso contarnos la historia de sus 20s y lo ha hecho a la perfección, muestra su alegría, su tristeza, su preocupación y lo mejor es que aunque él es un artista de talla mundial, todavía puedes sentirte identificado con sus vivencias. Un álbum completo de principio a fin, sin skip.

    La primera frase que dice RM es el abrebocas perfecto para este álbum, no quiere hacer ni seguir tendencias sin sentido, quiere hacer e hizo musica que vas más allá de eso. Escogió para eso buenos estilos y buenos colaboradores, artistas que para nada lo eclipsan, sino que resaltan sus fortalezas de buena manera.

    As expected from an artist like RM, the album was great. I loved the lyrics the most and the addition of the different features was good choice as well. I think if he chose different title track from the album, It would have become more popular but again that isn't how BTS as a group and solos work and I respect it.

Indigo is an amazing album, Namjoon did an incredible job creating incredible lyrics, reflecting on 4 years of hard work explaining how a rising star keeps his feet on the ground so as not to get lost in the wacky world of fame, while immersing the listener in warm rhythms and very rhythmic that are pleasant to the ear. It is an easy album to digest and with which daily life activities that seem simple can create great moments.
