    Indigo is truly such a deep and heartfelt album. I loved hearing the detailed emotions throughout each song. As someone who is starting their own journey, with which RM has mentioned the timeframe he wrote this album in, I really hold these songs dear. Ugh, I wish I could give higher than a 10 :p.

    One of the best albums released in 2022. RM being the best lyricist has done an amazing job on Indigo. It has different genres throughout the whole album, you never know what to expect next. Looking forward to his next music

    The album walks you through a journey from start to finish. With a wide variety of genres and legendary artists from Erykah Badu to Epik High's Tablo, Indigo truly is a work of art.

    RM truly does his magic once again. An album that has a variety of genres act like a comforting hug at the end of the day. With his deep, intuitive lyrics , he touches the soul of the listener. An album that showcases his growth as an artist and a human , talks about the different emotions we all go through. Truly an amazing album.

    I don’t even know where to start with this album, each song is different and gives me whiplash in the best way. I’ve listened to this album almost everyday since it’s release it’s that good.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. RM is one of the most extraordinary songwriters I’ve ever heard. He doesn’t let genre or style restrain his creativity. In Indigo, he has gifted the public with an honest and vulnerable insight into his growth as a person and artist, which carries the juxtaposition of the massively successful career he has as the leader of BTS, but also himself in his experiences as a regular young man. Artists like RM are extraordinary and rare to find, just realizing he has been active for 15 years since he was barely 13 years old, it’s mind-blowing. Indigo is an amazing album, and knowing he has more in store already, it’s exciting.… Expand

    Hands down, one of the best albums to date. I rarely listen to a full album, but if I do... you know the artist has a strory to tell. Indigo has touched my soul on a different level. RM is truly one of the best artists of our generation.

    The lyrics have deep and expressive meanings.. He can make you feel everything he feels in the same way because of the way he uses the notes while expressing his feelings. The cover design of the album is kept very simple, but still, the things written on it seem to speak to you exactly, "Listen to this album while it's (..)", isn't it very soft and beautiful?? He's really so good, I mean it

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album is an epitome of rhymes and poetry. It tells a story of self reflection, life struggle...
    My favorite message from this album is in the 1st track ft Erykah Badu, which was originally stated by a Korean legendary painter Yun Hyeong Geun, "Be a human, before you do some art". That's deep.
    But my favorite track is Closer. It's calm and sexy. I have my own interpretation of this track, which is about the relationship between an artist/idol and the fans. Maybe it's best for us to stay where we are while keep supporting and cheering for eo.

    This album is beautiful. Even the lyrics book itself is an art!    … Expand

    Kim Namjoon o RM, realmente me impresionaste con este álbum y gracias a tus reseñas pude apreciar mucho más cada una de las canciones de Indigo.

    Indigo is an eye-opening taste of what RM is truly capable of outside the bounds of the K-pop powerhouse.

    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.
