Lemme pause for a moment so this shit about Yoongi doesn’t get outta hand. He sampled the cult leader Jim Jones’ voice for the song “What do you think?” Jim Jones is the same man that poisoned 900 cult followers. Yoongi sampled him but not because he supported the man++
Jim Jones once said that he would die the most hated man in America and that his name would be on people’s lips all around when he died. Despite this BLUNT statement—hint—people still followed him into.
Yoongi is comparing fanbases and celebrities to cults & cult leaders through his song. Basically saying that despite an artist straight up showing that they’re only in it for the money and fame that we would still follow them after hearing that.
Yoongi doesn’t fucking support mass murder-suicide, he supports uncovering the truth about these manipulative ass celebrities by mocking them and comparing them to scum.
I think that an explanation or an apology should happen but don’t go unstanning when you don’t know the full story.
