BTS’s RM Accused of Taking Credit for Jungkook’s Solo Career

RM is facing backlash after his recent interview with Rolling Stone where he talked about Jungkook and the explicit version of “Seven.”

The controversy began when RM revealed he pushed BTS’s label, HYBE, to approve the explicit chorus line, “I’ll be fckin’ you right/Seven days a week,” for Jungkook’s solo track. RM said the label was “nervous” and wanted to change it to “loving you right.*” He insisted,

“I told the label, ‘Please don’t change! Why not? He’s all grown up. He can sing an f-word.’”

Fans quickly reacted on social media, accusing RM of taking credit for decisions Jungkook made on his own. Many argued that Jungkook handled all aspects of his solo album Golden independently and didn’t need RM’s advocacy.

“The bullshit this man keeps saying in every interview is embarrassing…”

“Other members have released songs with swear words but when it’s Jungkook he needed someone to advocate for him? Absolute bs! Fuck them. I know he would have fought to get what he wanted either way.”
