    I really love this album - there's a wide mix of genres and some great artists featuring. This album is a lot of fun but I also find it very soothing.

    Indigo is a classical masterpiece. Right from the first track, it sings of a madness that not many understand. Finding ways to retain humane behaviour while the world is nothing less than vile. The transition from singing about madness to challenging the stillness of life, to exhaustion from continuously swimming against the current, to immersing in it so much so that you are forgetful ofIndigo is a classical masterpiece. Right from the first track, it sings of a madness that not many understand. Finding ways to retain humane behaviour while the world is nothing less than vile. The transition from singing about madness to challenging the stillness of life, to exhaustion from continuously swimming against the current, to immersing in it so much so that you are forgetful of trivial yet important things in life. With a hypnotic track it sings of the melancholy of being unable to love who you love because it's as futile as trying to hold a fish in your hand. You'll hold it, but it'll manage to run away from your reach. While it seems that life is still, it is in fact changing everyday and that's what he has skillfully conveyed in a song that transitions itself in terms of beats, melody and pace of the song. Even the sentiment. The album also gives out an essential life message about accepting and moving with time instead of only regretting about past if one wants to progress in life.

    It is an album that focuses more on life and unravelling it's mysticism. It's an album meant for people who love to unravel and decipher the lyrics and study the music. This album is meant for poetic souls and people who spend their day untangling the thoughts in their head to make sense of life. For people who enjoy understanding life. It's an album that holds the potential to be studied in music schools someday. The lyricism is top-notch, not meant for people who can't grasp the meaning behind and in between the lines.

    To be precise, it is an album for people who understand the life in it's uncertainty. RM is a genius of today's era when it comes to lyricism.    … Expand

    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

It didn't seem weird to hear it in a chronological order because you can really tell the narrative that RM wants to convey. Strangely, even if the stories embodied in each song may appear like a personal entry out of RM's journal, it will come across as a song that you can relate to in your life. Some may stimulate your senses and prompt you yo move along and just have fun. On the other hand, some may piqued your curiosity and research its translation and then you'll be amazed by all the wordplays, context, and how much depth and care RM, as an artist who genuinely experience falling in love with music throughout his 10 year long career, put in each of his songs that he likes to call his children. Hence, it truly is a masterpiece befitting to be the archive of the 20s of the leader of the most talented, amazing, authentic, passionate, and charismatic team of artists—BTS.… Expand

    Éste álbum es arte en su máximo esplendor, cada canción de RM transmite esos sentimientos y pensamientos con los que tuvo que lidiar durante los 4 años de la creación de Índigo.

Si bien, tardó un poco en llegar, valió totalmente la pena. Canciones como Lonley, nos erizan la piel y nos hace sentir incluidos. Wildflower es una canción que nos invita a la superación y nos abre las puertas para empezar a ver que podemos vivir incluso como una simple y pequeña "flor silvestre", y que incluso así, el mundo es hermoso.
    Hetic es una canción que sin dudas disfruto muchísimo cuando voy en el transporte público, es relajada pero a la vez quieres bailar al ritmo de ella.
    Sin importar qué canción enumere, ÍNDIGO es un álbum completamente maravilloso y lleno de felices y amargos recuerdos que nos harán sentir identificados, y más cerca de comprender la mente y personalidad del artista. Porque RM siempre pone su corazón y su pasión en sus magníficas letras que sólo hacen más que embellecer sus melodías y ritmos.    … Expand

    RM lyricism is something I’ll always be amazed by. He knows how to express his emotions so well, he knows exactly what to sing/rap about and that is just so awesome. He knows how to comfort people through his music.

    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.
