AgustD D-Day Hot Take

Afternoona Army: Thinky and Thirsty BTS Takes

D-Day is here. The album we all suspected (knew) was coming but only had official confirmation for A FEW WEEKS AGO is out in the world. The closing of the AgustD trilogy that took us from the initial mixtapes AgustD (2016) to D-2 (2020) to this official release is one hell of a ride. Min Yoongi aka Prod by Suga aka Suga from BTS aka AgustD takes listeners on a journey of liberation and healing. No longer as haunted by the past, and releasing fears for the future, this is an artist at the top of his came who is stepping into the power of now. Did we like it? Raw. Intense. Honest. Spoiler: We f**cking loved it.
