For the last two days I have been considering to not only post but how to write this to display my thoughts correctly and how I’ve been feeling for the last two days including since finding out SKZ has joined threads. I basically just wanted to show my genuine care and appreciation to the group from someone who has been with them since debut, I was a pretty d i e hard and cringy fan from 2017 to 2019 and possibly even a little toxic myself to be far. Involving myself in far to much activities (Streaming parties that yes and st upid ly involved having more then one account on YT 🤦♀️, voting, Twitter, Bubble, ETC).
Truthfully I did delete a lot of them due to my own embarrassment, thankfully around this time I don’t think TikTok was a thing yet and although I did try it (as I tried to set up a Kingdom fan profile (kpop male group) my editing was terrible & it just wasn’t my thing. And I realize it now of the groups I followed that maybe I wasn’t the ‘biggest’ fan I was, I was probably just the cringest and loudest (SVT, WayV, B.A.P I’m so sorry lol, I also used to have a bad copy of iKON’s bling bling hoodie…)
When writing this post I came across a couple posts by people who have since deleted their accounts but a lot of their remarks about SKZ are still so true, within it they mentioned how a lot of their confidence has improved not just in general but on stage to. Despite all the issues the group gos through and stuff (which I do not ignore), it seems like around God’s Menu, Chan, 3RACHA and the others really started to understand who they were musically and what they liked to perform most on stage. I think a lot of people forget about where a group starts (and even how we as people develop our music taste overtime).
Even if I personally still enjoy the ‘older’ songs and favourites (Levanter, Booster, Astronaut, Maze of Memories, N/S, 0325, Get Cool (my top fav) and Mixtape:Oh) to name a few. I can’t help look at them differently now, from the ones that used to comfort me in my darkest times to just purely enjoying the songs. You sometimes can’t help but realize Chan’s producing skill and his own improvements to. I know sometimes he doesn’t always make a song purely by himself, he’s more wholesome and inspiring then I think some give him credit for.
There may always be good and negatives to every side even more so on the internet but it depends who you engage with and allow yourself to take part in to, with the recent announcement of SKZ joining threads I actually think its a great move I’ve heard a lot of deleting X/TW because of it to and I think that’s a great start. For me personally I would love to see artists moving although I understand it from a marketing stand point it would be interesting to see if artists join BlueSky (a platform I know mostly because of it being originally created for digital design/artists I believe). Sorry for the long post, thanks for letting me get this out~
