    I've been listening to Indigo every single day since it dropped back in December and let me tell you this album gets better and better with every listen!

As someone who is in their early 20s and has anxiety, doubts, struggles, feels intimidated with expectations & responsibilities and is in a transition phase in life, this album could've have come at a better time! It gives me hope, joy, motivation, comfort, reassurance and is basically that pat on the back or whisper in my ear wishing me all the best and telling me it'll be alright! I don't know which part of the world I'll be in a couple of months or what I'll be doing but one thing is for sure; Indigo (and Mono) are coming along with me everywhere!… Expand

    The more this album is listened to, the more you recognize what a masterpiece it truly is. It’s impossible to remain unmoved by Namjoon’s words and philosophy.

    Loved the diversity of genres and overall theme of the album. Listening to it somehow feels comforting. My favourites would be Yun (with Erykah Badu) and Forg_tful (with Kim Sawol).

    From the the 1st to the last track RM gives you a glimpse of who he was and who he is. This album speaks to the soul of what it is like to be a human and it is OK to make mistakes. Listened to the album from beginning to end with no skip. Worth the 30 minutes.

    There's only one artist in the world that could've topped a masterpiece album like Mono and that is *ba dum tsh*....RM himself! He did it with Indigo and i'm afraid he's going to do it again and again with every new project he takes on because he's just that good ! Masterful production, genius lyrics, top notch vocals /rap flows and overall impeccable taste; give this man a grammy already!

    Great album. RM just shows varied skills and craftmanships in this album. So young and yet so talented, hes play with words and his genius is evident in all of the songs. Not only that it also shows his vulnerability as an artist and as a person. Every song is notable, truly inspirational.

    most people who leave bad reviews do not understand him or what he was aiming for with this album fully. the negative comments on his voice r disgusting , u people should be ashamed . he's a person and this is not constructive criticism u guys r providing , its ur stupid opinion . his work is amazing and his voice is great . stay silent if you have nothing actually worthy of time to say

    This is such a beautiful an well thought album It's impressive how much work was put in to every detail of this album, from the lyricism of each song that is delivering a profound message in a specific order, to each artist featured chosen carefully to give each song the best delivery of that message and feelings. Also the versatility of genres and resources made this album a jewel .

    Indigo es un álbum perfecto de principio a fin, contiene todo: las letras, las voces, la armonía, la música; me hizo adquirir el gusto por el k pop y cambiar mi concepto del rap. RM podría haber cantado sólo pues su voz es hermosa, sin embargo optó por mostrar a otros artistas excepcionales como él. Gracias RM

    Beautifully curated album, particularly the flow of the track placement. Namjoon has truly put his soul into this album, the story and emotions he felt during his 20s. As someone in their mid20s, I feel especially moved by his words. My favorite songs would have to be All Day ft Tablo, Closer ft Paul Blanco & Mahlia, Still Life ft. Anderson Paak, No.2, and Yun.

I love the album in its entirety but those songs peirce my soul. For anyone who has ever felt lost/alone in this world, these songs can really make you feel as though you are understood. The feelings we feel but could never seem to find the right words to describe. Indigo is going to recognize you, comfort you and make you realize that as humans. As people. As works of unique art that only we can create. We all at some point feel the same and deserve love from ourselves especially. I'd recommend listening to it in order first, to experience the waves of sentiment. Personally, I felt understood and inspired by Indigo.… Expand

    It’s too early to tell if the record will help the BTS leader achieve his goal of creating something truly timeless but, in this moment, ‘Indigo’ feels like a masterpiece with the potential to be remembered as a classic.

    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.
