He's a very talented artist a one who will easily be recognized as an icon of our generation specially that he's aiming in this album and his recent activities for timelessness.. RM is an explorer, he experience lots of genres and he isn't scared of doing what opposes the mainstream scene or the quick selling forgettable music everyone has been producing lately. He picked his collaborators very well, from korean and american hiphop to korean rock (yeonjun) to erikah badu RM showed extreme loyalty to his roots, bowed to the masters and showed how much of an open minded musician he is. Also, it's not very common to see artists laying themselves bare and letting their music speaks for them and show their sincerity. Lemonade used to be my all time favorite album but after listening to Indigo the timeless masterpiece I realized lemonade need to back off a little … Expand

    One of the best albums i’ve ever listened to. RM of BTS, expresses his 20’s so well in this album. If you’re someone who is leaving their 20’s, and entering their 30’s, this is for you. Or if you’re entering your 20’s this is for you as well, afterall it’s one of the purposes as to why this album came to be.

    One of the best album I've heard. No skip.
    My top 3:
    Wild Flower - I love the music production especially it's lyrics. I literally cried watching it's mv, it's not sad song but it makes me emotional. Closer - Perfect, the beat superb, shout out to the producer Honne. Namjoon, Paul Blanco, and Mahalia, their voices really suits to this song. No.2 - I recommend to you guys to watch it's    One of the best album I've heard. No skip.

    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.

    Indigo is truly a masterpiece, a simple also a very deep album which reflects the youth very well. The twenties are a crucial part of our life and this album is very well made for those who had experienced or going through this phrase. Namjoon is a true genius and indeed a lyrical wizard, so simple but still so deep lyrics.

    Phenomenal project from BTS’ outstanding leader. A bright and expansive display of his range as an artist; rapping, singing, songwriting and composing all clear 10’s across the board. Really excited for all RM has to offer solo-wise in the future!

    Indigo is a gorgeous album with beautiful and heartfelt lyrics that truly paints a story in his 10 shades of blue. Kim Namjoon is known for his ability to write music from pure poetry and doesn’t disappoint. The diversity in genres is ambitious and impressive. Ericka Badu agreeing to a feature should tell you everything!

Ericka Badu agreeing to a feature should tell you everything! While not every single song is intensely “poetic” in the typical, heart wrenching sense, they all fit into a narrative like a diary. Sometimes complicated emotions, and sometimes the simple admonition of being frustratingly lonely. Truly and confidently I can say that I think this album deserves a 10/10. NME and Consequence say it all. It’s really masterful and a wonderful branching out away from the realm of K-pop (as RM of BTS) and going back toward his roots as a musician.… Expand

    Indigo is flawless as it showcases Namjoon's ability to embrace any type of genre and excel in it. His songwriting skills are genius, his wordplay is unparalleled and his voice is breathtaking. You truly can listen to it during a drive, on a rainy day, going for a walk... It was unexpectedly expected and definitely a archive of his 20s.

    RM’s musicality and lyricism is incredible in this record. All the symbolism he uses and the different genres he tries fit perfectly for the last ‘archive’ of RM’s 20s.

    Good album. The songs were apart from each other instead of genre and music but connected with each other.

    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.
