Yoongi is expressing himself on this album with a level of precision and creative intent that only comes with a lot of experience as an artist delivering messages and experimenting. D-2 is so good not bc it took time, but it required change. Think back to Yoongi in 2016 vs now:

He pushed himself as a vocalist and actor on stage to deliver Seesaw and his musical style surprised us all. That changed how we view Yoongi& #39;s music. He expanded his producing versatility through his collab opportunities being sensitive to aesthetics and needs of other artists +

He has developed his rapping versatility by featuring on multiple songs both outside bts and on bts tracks, showing us new styles as their albums changed. His technical capability as a rapper, singer, and producer and his sensitivity as a writer has bloomed in such a special way

The Agust D he was able to deliver with this album and simply stunning performance in Daechwita is the result of being a sponge, being willing to try new challenges, learning, it& #39;s just so clear how much he poured into improving himself as a musician on every level since 2016

I wish I could put into words for Yoongi how fruitful his efforts turned out to be. I& #39;m so impressed with him and I feel only thankful to be a fan of such an inspirational person to me. I love Yoongi
