    Kim Namjoon shows his artistic genius with Indigo. Every song has its own color and Namjoon allows the listener an inside peak into his every day emotions. This album has a song for everyone and is worth a listen. Please honor his writing by taking the time to look up the translations to the songs. You wont regret listening to this album.

    Este álbum é arte pura! RM consegue desenvolver bem seus sentimentos, bem o bastante para que eu possa ver meus sentimentos em suas letras. Além de que as colaborações são incríveis, ele conseguiu realizar o que tanto queria, trazer e harmonizar diferentes frequências e gêneros. RM é realmente um gênio.

    What can I say about his art? This is a masterpiece! A well thought album. Written by him because this is HIM, Thee Kim Namjoon not RM of the leader of BTS. Well RM is still part of Kim Namjoon but this album we can listen from Kim Namjoon as well as RM. Their life journey and journal of his life through out his 20s.

In Indigo, RM of BTS fame has given us a peep into the last 4 years of his life. His previous work, mono, was a mood playlist, but Indigo is more like a journal recording different thoughts and feelings. The styles and sounds cover everything from folk, to hip hop to city pop, but the sentiments and philosophy are pure Kim Namjoon.

    The songs flow into each other, taking the listener on a rollercoaster ride. The lead single Wild Flowers is an explosive soundscape with beautiful lyrics, the MV a gorgeous treat for the senses. Singer Yunjeen's voice is laden with emotion in the hook. No. 2 closes the album in a quiet sigh, a realization that where you're at is good, no need to look back. All the collaborations add flavor and depth to the music, helping to present a fuller picture of RM.

    For me, though, the best track is Change. Its quirky musicscape and mumbled lyrics are just so different. Yes, everything changes in this world. As you mature you come to this realization. How you accept this will determine whether you are happy, dissatisfied or plain miserable in your life.

    I recommend this album and strongly encourage people to listen to it from beginning to end.    … Expand

    I am so grateful to RM. This album is so meaningful and intimate. Namjoon says goodbye to his 20 and lets us see his side of the coin. This album is for those of us who started in our 20s, the older brothers, the middle ones, the younger ones, for those who are adults and feel lost, for those who feel lonely, It is for those who are losing the meaning of life.

    This album “Indigo” is for those souls who are tired of always trying. Indigo is the art of showing you that life exists out there and awaits you, the art of changing, still loving and still living. Like an overcoming letter coming to inspire you.
    “Life is better than the death, I’ll prove it” - Namjoon 2022 in Still Alive. Personally I am going to stick around and see him prove it to me

    This album is magnificent, the songs give you comfort and you feel identified with them since they are feelings that all of us experience at some point in our lives. Namjoon wrote every song on this album which makes it even more special, writing his own songs is something only the best artists can do and Namjoon created this piece of aural art.

    This album was created by a true artist, someone who understands, appreciates and connects to music so deeply. The different genres all fit together, the collaborations are cohesive and fit together to create a beautiful work of art. RM has truly connected with his soul to create this album, and as his official debut, he should be incredibly proud of the art he was created.

RM has truly connected with his soul to create this album, and as his official debut, he should be incredibly proud of the art he was created.

    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.

    RM has already made his mark in the music world but with Indigo, he cements his place as a true virtuoso in music.    … Expand

    I would never give an album an actual 10/10 but Indigo felt like it deserved it and more. Thematically, it is an amazingly cohesive album with clear messages and a boy spelling out thoughts and experience of his 20s through poetry and rhythm. It’s relatable in many ways more than one where each song held concepts that are so raw and real, especially for a first official solo album.I would never give an album an actual 10/10 but Indigo felt like it deserved it and more. Thematically, it is an amazingly cohesive album with clear messages and a boy spelling out thoughts and experience of his 20s through poetry and rhythm. It’s relatable in many ways more than one where each song held concepts that are so raw and real, especially for a first official solo album. Sonically it’s great with different musical takes and genre’s whether it’s a mellow ballad, rock essence or a male-filled city pop (a rare thing to see for sure), it was refreshing and never dull or boring. In terms of features, every artist felt like they held a special place and were placed in the right places, their different voices carry out thoughts and words that serve as a reality check for many (including RM himself). Additionally, despite the number of features it never felt like anything but a fully RM record which is something that he should be praised for as the very core of the album is very personal to him.
    Finally, my personal favorite song on the album at the moment is probably No. 2 as lyrically it speaks to me and my personal experiences. There is also something so special about ending this very touching album with the affirmative and self-uplifting words saying “now you will protect you”. Thus, I can bravely and happily say that this album deserves so much praise and attention. I hope RM the best on his future career and whatever he decides to venture into next!    … Expand

To start, the overall theme seems to show a person with multiple things that make up their identity. Broken down though each song has an individual theme that ties to the next song. Each song flows together and is overall a well rounded album. The placement of each song has been well thought out and. Yun is the opening track and gives the overall vibe of being tired of everyone who doubts and dislikes them. The title track Wild Flower is a griping piece of art that hits you right in the heart. It gives a sense of sadness and yet also a sense of peace. The last song of this wonderful album is No.2 which completes the album with the thought of being yourself regardless of anyone else.… Expand

    Indigo is a compilation of songs that Namjoon himself classifies as a closure of his last 15 years.

Collaborations are the key points for this album to be so interesting, we can see their personalities very easily like: Kim Namjoon in some tracks, RM in other titles and we can also feel that there is RM of BTS present in the composition of that concept .

    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.
