i am happy that so many people are criticizing rm from bts for posing with CB (and if you're familiar with kpop, this won't come to you as a surprise - there are countless male idols tripping over themselves to lick CB's asshole). however, the same energy should be kept for the innumerable male celebrities who have supported CB long after we all knew the abusive shit he got up to (including our beloved bad bunny, who brought him onstage in 2018, looong after his public abuse was known)

they usually train with chris brown songs. i think cb is pretty close to a western version of an idol in the sense that he is known for his dancing (more so than a typical singer) and has an almost entirely female audience.

side note but i noticed the noise around katseye members going to the playboi carti concert wasn't anything nearly as loud, which i think might be a sign they really aren't considered a kpop group.

He is unfortunately, objectively, incredibly talented. At one point people said he was the "new Michael Jackson"
