Shepard promise me you'll tell them to subscribe for free content it's an honor majesty that's a great show thank you man there's a lot of fun climax you okay oh my god ladies and gentlemen analytic dreams video on Spotify

because we got a lot to get into you guys unfortunate it was an honors okay thank you for this So ladies and gentlemen, that was, of course, two of the members from BTS. More specifically, we have BTS member J. Hope and RM that I just showed Meeting Usher. Now, of course, I have another video right here.

Once again, Analytic Dreams video on Spotify, because we have a lot of evidence, ladies and gentlemen. Before I even approach the topic, we got a lot of evidence. So let's just bring this up right here. Respecting legends, man. You got, you know what I mean? You love to see. it boy now you probably thinking to yourself wait hold on now it seems like they're having a grandiose time why is this the top of the charts as far as not only the drama but also the tour and btas being

considered well ladies and gentlemen when it comes to a lot of notorious mass affecting that goes on in gaming and music ip so they have to say this is the place that it goes down at as far as the coverage oh come on jeruski juski we ain't got to do all that come on man now anyways when it comes to i don't know i just keeps playing on uh okay here we go when it comes to bt s specifically you already know that i have a huge respect for them in general this is the second time in the same year i said the second time in the same year all right they heard me the first time my fault um that they have grace the music cover of notorious mass effect episode.

Now, of course, the first one, because they had the biggest first week sales of the year of 2026 with our album, RRI-Rang, which you know, shout out to them for that. And, you know, I just wonder, like sometimes I wonder to myself, who in the world could have predicted that the BTS album R-R-R-R-R-Rang

would have win number one? All right, my fault. All I'm saying is, you know, the evidence is there. You know, you look at BTS Rang, and, you know, a certain someone was predicting that they would have the biggest first week sales of 2026. So, of course, you already know that I'm pretty on the ball when it comes to the music and gaming industry coverage, but especially when it comes to BTS, because another fun fact, before we get into the subject matter, the K-pop audience, more specifically, the BTS K. Junk audience was the first, it was like a first fan post to. actually like share my content. I was like, hold on now.

Oh, that's what support looks like. You guys. So shout out to the K-pop supporters for that, man. In all honesty, my K-pop supporters, my Latin supporters specifically, of course you already know when I talk about Drake the goat. Is it okay? I got my dope on me. Those three definitely make notorious mass effect run around

as far as the notorious support that y'all give me. Now without further ado, I'm just giving you a little history on the podcast before I get into this specific subject matter because another thing I talk about thoroughly and I repeat this rhetoric

time and time again I believe a certain someone is the most talented musician that I've ever seen. Now, no, before you say Usher, Usher is immensely talented, you know what I'm saying? But we're getting into a specific artist that let's just say the BTS fandom

was not too pleased with You guys. See, that's the problem. Exhibitate, ladies and gentlemen. Now, if you don't know this picture right here, that particular artist, you know what I'm saying? I know that ain't who I think it is. I said that particular artist goes by the name of Chris Brown,

and I believe he's the most talented musician to ever walk the face of the earth, right? But the BTS fandom that goes by the name of Army, they were not too pleased that members Jay Hope and RM attended his concert along with usher so it was a curse barrel usher stadium tour that's currently going on right now and of course of course we dive into the analytics over here so if you don't know as far as the first 13 shows as far as eight venues they've grossed a hundred million dollars already with five hundred and sixty-six tickets already sold and this is not old sources i made it up this is live nation slash paul star actually coming our estimated report showcasing that this show is averaging $7.8 million per show,

and it ranked number one on Polestar's global concert average gross. What in the actual? So literally, Chris Brown and Usher have the most popular tour right now, not only when it comes to engagement, not only when it comes to revenue, but also when it comes to fan support, because BTS is one of the biggest artists, if not the biggest artists, to ever attend Usher. stadium tour in the year of

2026. And no, before you kill me, you know what I'm saying? Don't forget. We put respect over BT. We put respect on BTS name over here. As they had the biggest first week sales of 2026 with $641,000. The top five goes BTS already rang with $641,000.

Olivia Rodriguez, what you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love with $485,000. And number three, of course you got the goat. Is it okay? I got my dope on me? Well, Iceman selling $463,000 putting him in the third slide as far as the third biggest first week sales of

2026 and then you have Harry Stiles kiss all the time disco occasionally selling 430,000 putting him in the fourth slide and of course at number five you have Noah Khan with the great divide at 389,000 now I don't know if y'all notice but the discreferency

between 681,000 and 485 I mean it's pretty significant if I do say so myself. BTS is by far the most popular group, the most popular artist to ever attend Usher Chris Brown show in the year of 26. And boy, did it make all type of hoopla on the internet.

As of course, Army exploded. As looking at RM and Jay Hope attending the concert, you would think it's not a big deal, right? Because Usher, Chris Brown, objectively speaking, they have the highest revenue gross and tour, right? quality-wise is more subjective, but in my humble opinion, that is the most talented duo

you can put on a live performance stage. I said it. There's nobody else, Beyonce, all of them, like, I mean, I'm not going to cap. If you get Beyonce and Chris Brown the same stage, that would never happen, but that would probably be a better duo. But as of right now,

Usher and Chris Brown is the most talented duo you can put on a live performance stage, right? So anyways, uh, BTS, who definitely no ball, they just wanted to see greatness up close. And their fan base was not going for it. as they basically said that if they would have attended the show privately, they would have been okay with. I was like, hold on now.

I know that ain't who I think it is. I was like, that's not how it works. I know that ain't who I think it is. Because literally, and once again, I told you I had all type of evidence, right? So when it comes to, and it's not like I'm against the army, I'm just giving you the evidence and letting you do of it as you will. You know what I'm saying? Just don't say I'm making this up.

I'm showing you a 4K, you know what I'm saying? So when it comes to another evidence that was wanting to show, this is particular these particular artists, you know, that goes by the name of V and I think the other ones of Junkook. Yeah, so V and Junkook. So now when you look at V and Junkook, as you can see right here, it's on mute because of course copyright reasons, but they were on a live stream, right, August 11th through the 12th of this year, not too long ago, right? And basically when you look at them all live, they are listening to a particular song from, who is that? I know that ain't who I think it is.

Oh, Chris Brown. All right, my fault. I'm not trying to rub you your face. Basically, they basically excuse this type of behavior because they say they was passively listening to it and it's not, it's fundamentally different than what R.M. and J. Hope did as far as attending a concert live, detouring from your live show that you currently have right now because if you don't know, BTS currently has, I'm just going to keep this on screen. BTS currently is on a mammoth of a run, especially not only with Ari Rang, but the tour that's highly successful, right?

And the latest stop was at Baltimore. Now, we'll stop this because I do have a picture of them in Baltimore, I believe. So when it comes to them in Baltimore, that was the latest stop, I believe. And that is right here. And here is a Big Hit Entertainment, which if you didn't know,

which is the label that BTS is under. This is them posting about it. So basically, when you look at them going from that tour stop, directly like literally taking a flight and they had to maneuver uh their route because they didn't go straight to the next show it's not like they missed their show but they wanted to see the usher and chris brown show live and guess where was at toronto ladies and gentlemen so they are they are saying basically the reason why i bring up their show in baltimore is

because they are saying that what v and um what v and junk did as far as in this video right here of them passively listening to the Chris Brown song on the live stream is fundamentally different than what you're seeing right now as far as them as far as Jay Hope and RM attending a show live now literally I kid you not this is like the biggest drama so the army fan base is up in arms if you want any indication um this is what one person had to say basically when it comes to the army they are upset ladies and gentlemen as this particular k-pop or a BTS fan they say I really struggled to understand this. BTS built much of their career talking about self-love, respect, empathy, and valuing people.

But apparently those values stay in the songs when it comes time to apply them in real life. You guys. See, that's the problem. And if you can't tell, yeah, that person's upset. Yeah, that's upset actions right there. You know, that's some actions of an upset person right there. And, of course, they put the first picture, you know, because the Army is upset because you don't even know. what type of victory all these army base have for them going to a Chris Brown concert

because all of these pictures is what Usher. And of course, the picture with Chris Brown are the ones that supposedly was making the rounds of being outlandish, right? You see this, a BTS fan right here, literally saying we're in, you know, it's a PG podcast, but technically hell is a location. They're saying we're in hell. Now, what in the actual? You guys.

See, that's the problem. Just for going to an Usher show? Shepard. All right, my fault. stop acting like Chris Brown isn't a part of the Usher show. So as you can tell, as you can see, literally, once again, analytic dreams video on Spotify, these BTS, well, apparently these BTS fans are immensely upset.

And I will say it makes sense. Now, before y'all kill me for saying that, because once again, oh, I have more, you have more pictures, by the way. We have a lot of evidence, ladies and gentlemen, they are thoroughly upset. they show on all the type of pictures with R.m. and Jay Hope being at the Chris Brown concert, like, it's just the most disgusting thing in the world.

I think this is Chris Brown's daughter, by the way, so I think they had like backstage. Well, not, I think. I literally showed the backstage axis at the beginning. So the reason why I'm throwing all this evidence is because I want to get into my ultimate sentiment as far as how I feel about the situation after showcasing how, like, actually important,

or not important, but how big this drama has escalated over time. This is going to be very interesting for the sense that BTS was not at the Chris Brown Usher tour. Jay Hope and RM was. So if the remaining members

try to take a stand and have Jay Hope and RM make a post about apologizing, I think that could create some type of vitriol and divide. between the BTS members. And does the Army want that?

I think not. So when it comes to Jay Hope and RM, I think in worst case scenario, the Army can end up turning the rest of the BTS members against Jay Hope and RM as far as making them apologize. And when it comes to that,

some Army fans would be elated for that news. Some would not care because they're saying that they're just having, a tremendous time at a Chris Brown show. Like, you know, look at me now, it's fire. You know what I'm saying? No, literally, I have it up right now.

This is the Look at Me Now track. Obviously, I can't play it because of copyright. And this is the look, they're having the time in their lives, boy. Let them boys have fun. Those boys can't have fun. You know what I'm saying? Anyways, look at me now is the classic track, by the way. So that's the track that they was vibing to.

And the Army fans was basically saying, I just don't like it. Well, not all of them, but half of them. I just don't like that shit, man. It's at least half of them because this news should not be this big. As objectively speaking, it was number one trending when this occurred. As it being the number one trending topic is showcasing once again that Chris Brown cannot get away from his old ways, which leads me into my ultimate sentiment. So as far as the Rihanna situation with Chris Brown, because you know, I always call Chris Brown the most talented musician I've ever seen.

like on Plain Earth. I don't care if y'all call it Glaze. That man sing, he rap, he paint, he play basketball. I mean, he just, all right? My fault is too much, right? That was too much. All right. Basically, Chris Brown, the most talented human

I've ever seen on Plain Earth, right? So when you're looking at his success, even after the Rihanna situation, I believe that a certain person's talent level and their ability to create high quality content is not a reflection of their actual human behavior. behaviors, right? And when you get into moral land where you're holier than now, you start to realize that a lot of these brands, I'm not condoning what Chris Brown did, but basically when listening

to the music, you can separate that from the person because nobody does it with clothing companies. Nobody does it with candy companies and those faces to these companies. But do people care? No, they only want to look up things that they are put, that they have put, put in. front of them, right? Nobody's looking up the CEO or the headperson of these candy or clothing companies. They have these kids and mining factories being paralyzed and stuff as far as chocolate companies having literally having children working hazardous environments, right? Heavy workloads, etc. As far as pesticides, working with machetes, I mean, just for some chocolate, mind you, y'all are going to stop eating chocolate? Of course not. But what you say you can

heavy child labor, no, but you're still eating chocolate, right? So when it comes to certain clothing companies, you will say the same sentiment just because you're wearing Nike, just because you have an Apple product does not mean you condone the abuse of child labor. And I think these holier than now people, if they really stood on what they are saying, they wouldn't support any multi-million dollar or billion-dollar brand because that's where usher and Chris Brown are they are multi-million dollar brand so anyways uh the reason I say that is because these holier than now people they got to go like you know it's not like what condoning what Chris did and separating the product from the actual human is what we're doing and it's what RM and J Hope is doing so if people don't understand

that then guess what we're going to watch the greatest the most talented musician of all time and y'all could get mad at it You know what I'm saying? See, that's the problem. So the reason why I showed you all that evidence at the beginning was basically to give my whole sentiment to where this is a nothing burger. Half of the army is upset. And I even, I may get flacked for this. I already know I have a lot of army or K-pop supporters.

And once again, my coverage of BT Jen Cook was the first time I ever got posted by a fan account. And they actually like share my content. I was like, wow, this is what actual support look like. So the reason why I'm even talking about this in such great detail is because BTS, I've covered extensively. throughout the lifespan of notorious mass effect. And of course, I've covered Chris Brown a lot. So when you look at the personal side of Chris Brown, I mean, it's just egregious. We're not even talking about the Rihanna.

We can talk about a case going on right now. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, right now. Chris Brown is in a case right now as far as being in a incident in July 2026. And his vocal coach pleaded guilty to Afray at South Warwick. Crown Court in London. Apparently, there was like a nightclub situation where they hit somebody with a glass bottle or in the Drake. Is it okay?

I got my dope on me. You know, that's Laura for people who follow hip hop. Apparently, Drake and Chris Brown, or not apparently, it definitely happened. Drake and Chris Brown, their entranches back in the day through like bottles back and forth. So I guess that's just a thing. Chris Brown camp, they just like hitting people with glass bottles. That stuff is not legal. Anyways, so when it comes to that current case going on right now,

Chris Brown is actually facing jail time, like objectively speak. as there's a court date, right? There's a max three year sentence that could happen, max three years that Chris Brown could get. And the sentencing is set to happen October 26th. So Chris Brown is literally on bail. What, actual? So that's why, you know, when it comes to the product

and the company, separating the two is very interesting. As far as the music industry not being something that is a, is where that's allowed, but the other, corporations or that's allowed easily as far as the product being separated from the company. Now, of course, if it gets two egregious like R. Kelly, then you know, I feel like that's kind of crazy. But when you look at the separation of the product and the actual company, I think more times than not, it's feasible. And a lot of people who claim to be holier than now act like it's not. So anyways, when it comes to the RM and, uh,

Jay Hope situation. I don't think they came out with a statement because if they did, I would have had it. Literally, I have all type of, I got like all type of stuff up here. Like, if y'all want to see another angle,

y'all want to see another angle of J. Hope's story. Let me see, we got another angle and another reason why the army was upset because not only are they going to the concert, but they posted multiple videos, multiple pictures, you've seen all of them in this video.

Literally, I looked up all the ones with Chris Brown, BTS in the picture, Usher, BTS in the picture. I wanted to show you all. the videos from the official account so you know that it's not like they went to this and tried to hide their love for chris brown at usher no it's on full display and everybody's posting about it usher posting about it uh btsd is obviously as far as rm and uh j hope they're posting about it and at the end of the day can we get a can't can we all just get along i doubt that you

doubt it see that's the problem but even diving into this uh particular synch You come to realize that BTS having their own tour as far as the R-Rang tour literally generating millions of dollars And for this to be still the top Grossing tour as far as the Usher and Chris Brown tour Goes to show that even though BTS is more culturally relevant as far as the music perspective Because if you don't know usher Chris Brown the non the charts at all

Singles albums all these sold-out stadiums none of the tracks on the charts But when it comes to BTS they do have swim that's the 91st most played track in the world and I think Army's trying to get that to a billion as far as collective cumulative streams and then you have BTS Army reign that's currently the 12th most played album in the world

once again Usher Chris Brown they have the most profitable show live show currently but none of their tracks or albums are the charts and I just read off BTS's status with the highest album Rang being the 12th most play album in the world and of course the single swim being the 95th first most play track in the world. So when you look at BTS being the most successful group currently

out of this debacle, you come to realize that the other BTS members may force RM and Jay Hope to give an apology. Do I think is fair? I think it's very much a great area. Once again, going back to the product and the company type thing. But when it comes to the sake of the group staying together, I think Army is playing a dangerous game of the worst case scenario, potentially being R.M. and J. Hope being ostracized and having to put out a force statement, which could create turmoil within the group. And do we want to see that?

They just came off a hiatus, by the way. BTS just came out hiatus as they had mandatory military service, and this was announced in 2022, I believe. So they had solo careers, and that's when the whole Junk could coverage came from me. And then, of course, when it comes to that, they came back together in, like, 2025, right? And now they're taking over the world with Ari Ring. Literally, the year, well, 2025 was announced that R.N. Ring was coming.

And then this year, it is officially taken over. They had the Netflix deal. They had the live showing of R.E. Ring. It was a big deal. And that is why it sold $641,000. And it's the biggest first success of this year because everybody was waiting for a new B-T-E-Ring. album. So the last bit on the

Usher Chris Brown situation with BTS. I believe that Chris Brown is definitely going to have to address this because either this goes away and nobody talks about it

or it gets even bigger to the point where Chris Brown, Usher doesn't have to address it because nobody really is targeting us. even though that one fan did say, hold on, this fan did say they was in hell and this is Usher. It's not Chris Brown, by the way. I don't know if he got the two confused, but he said he's in hell and had a picture of Usher and BT. I'm like, what Usher do?

You know what I'm saying? What the Usher do? Anyways. So anyways, yeah, this is going to get big to the point where either Chris Brown or R.M. and J. Hope, or going to have to put out a statement. I believe a statement's coming if this gets bigger because I didn't even think it was going to be this big. Like at first I saw it, I was like, oh, okay, I made cover. it. Like, I was like, oh, them going to a Chris Brown tour, like, you know, best of both worlds for me specifically.

But then the drama came. I was like, whoa, I didn't know y'all had such high morals. Y'all, like, holier than now. Like, you know, people can't grow, people can't change. People can't, like, you know, they acting like Chris Brown and go to jail for any of his actions. But not excusing it, of course, but, you know, it's definitely a great area as far as product and company. So that great area is not as black and white. as some of the Army fan base would like you to believe. So, but that being said, that's basically all I have, man. You know, when it comes to Chris Brown, he's just going to forever be dealing with that situation.

And, you know, he caused that, you know, he caused that himself. So I can't be too upset about it. So with that being said, click my link to your bio to follow me on my social medias. And of course, this is going to be a huge discussion for the following days. Let me know, if you're on Spotify, let me know in the comment section down below.
