You need a moment. Doom's Day Doom Dada MV Release

Welllll.... I hope all of you have been a good stan and had the chance to buy Doom Dada and not downloading illegally. Because that is bad and... and it's bad... and I am too tired to think of anything other than it's bad. You are not a real fan if you download illegally when it is available in legal means. You don't support him as an artist. Yada. Yada. Yoda.

 

Though I could probably spend a day talking about this... song and MV which we have received in a rather inverted package (Audio first which I think is ingenious. Of course I am biased), I really shouldn't. o/

 

I'd rather not suffer from a brain hemorrhage right now. I have to write an essay.

 

But here's a quick link to Doom Dada MV. o/ TOP stans and VIPs have waited three years for this. Enjoy. If you've already seen it... enjoy it again.

 

I confess to have only seen it once, in installations... I can't really handle it. Hahaha. Maybe I'd have the courage to sit through this when I get home.

 

 

Because I have only seen this once, in fragments, when I can't breathe I tend to click on stop... LOL. I really want to just talk about the song first. I think releasing the audio first was well played. TOP already had said that this song is his feelings towards music, it's an honest expression. One that would of course be digested better without the distraction of visuals (i.e. his stupid perfect mug)

This is borderline cruel. Heart breaker? how about heart wrencher, trampler, and er... er.. er...

This is him facepalming because I said I wouldn't bother with his visual.

Here's him going, "Yeah, sev you know my face owns your soul"

(HIS EYES UGUIGJKFKHDKHD)

Here's him being a y .

Here's him saying, "sevvy, look it's so cozy in hell, cuddle up and let's see you burn." ;A;

jkdfgdkgakgf It's like oh sevvy, you can have me, but through hell fire...

Here's him drinking to my misery.

Here's him with his straight lower teeth, saying, "Look sev, final imperfection gone."

Truthfully, this MV is so... weird and hot and that is not a very comfortable combination.

He is so pretty.

But different.

In a really weird way too.

Some days, I feel very odd loving him.

 

I think his enigmatic in the most perfect sense. Enigma. It even sounds TOPish.

I... lost my senses. Do not bother me.

I have ommitted him in an ape suit...

This reminds me of a quote: "Art is meant to disturb the comfortable, and comfort the disturb."

This is very disturbing, if you're not quite disturb... then, well, you are exactly evolved to a zombie consumer of mass media commercialism.

I don't actually want to sound like a consumer elitist. Hahaha. So maybe the response to the song will just have to wait until I am coherent, But if you are interested here is the translation:

Long time no see
Long time no see

Long time no see
Long time no see
Long Long time no see
Long time no see

I’m getting antsy
All you little kids go to the corner
I’m the sommelier who will change your taste
Blow on it when it’s hot
I’ll throw this one to you, bow your head in thanks, hurray
Hey mister and sister, I’m TOP, the real one is coming

Blow on it while it’s hot
When I rap, it’s so hot
It hasn’t been that long
What to do with this burnt smell

You with the sleeping cells
Have you seen the last weapon?
The thin eardrums of the sleeping soul
I’ll poke it with a thorn, make it burn
You with the sleeping cells
I’ll poke it with a thorn, make it burn
Oh God God God God
A shower that washes your eardrums

The unstoppable and hot souls
Let’s dance on the wide floor over there
The unstoppable and hot souls

Let’s Go
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA DOOM
Forward march
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA DOOM

I’m a 21st century, extraordinary Korean
A god-given rap Basquait with a mic
I’m warming up my mouth for the first time in a while, I’ll be done in just one song
I’ll make you go crazy but I’m like a clear pinot noir

I don’t care if your bones melt, let’s see the end to this madness
Just like that, just like this, let’s look at a new world
Point your gun to the complicated world, to the noisy sounds and bang bang bang
Let out your heaving breath and DOOM DA DA DIVI DA

Ga na da ra ma ba sa
Ah ja cha ka ta pa, the skies will protect us
It feels like I’m looking above the universe, I’m a fearless dreamer
Run away? I won’t run away
You are all on fire
God God God God
A shower that washes your eardrums

The unstoppable and hot souls
Let’s dance on the wide floor over there
The unstoppable and hot souls

Let’s Go
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA DOOM
Forward march
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA DOOM

Hey mass media, stay calm and handle this new inspiration
DOOM DADA DIVI DA, with meditation, I’ll observe the third world
The power of mankind that the gods gave
A more dazzling win of civilization
DOOM DADA DIVI DA, I hope a green light shines on new life
Turn turn turn turn, turn only backwards
Voices of humans who are only all talk are turning
Push push push, it pushes, sizzle sizzle, quickly quickly
The overheated media pushes people
Hakuna matata Hakuna matata
DOOM DADA DIVI DA, hope a green light shines on new life

DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA DOOM
Let’s Go
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA

Ye

This is of course plagued by the deteriorating effects of translation. Dana-VIP translated this differently with intextual comments on Korean National Anthem. :D God protect and preserve us or something.

Bow down and put your hands up
Hey Mister n Sister I’m To- To- TOP
The real one’s here
When it’s burning hot
Blow it well like Hoo hoo~
I’m too Hot when I rap
It hasn’t been that long, what should we do with this burnt smell
The one who has latent cells flowing in them
Have you seen the ultimate weapon
To the slender eardrums of the sleeping soul
When I poke it with a thorn, it burns up
The one who has latent cells flowing in them
When I poke it with a thorn, it burns up

Oh God God God God
Shower that cleans your eardrums
Hot soul that never stops
Let’s dance together in that large lot

Hot soul that never stops

I’m an extraordinary Korean in the 21st century
Possessed rap Basquiat who grabbed the MIC
I’m opening my mouth after a long time
I can end the game with just one song
I make you crazy but I’m a pure pinot noir
I don’t care I love it even if my bone melts
Let’s see the end of this madness
All of it, just the way it is, like this
Let’s look at the new world again
All the loud noises in this complicated world

Load up the bullets and TANG TANG TANG
Breathe out heavily like Hak Hak DOOM
DA DA DIVI DA

Ka Na Da Ra Ma Ba Sa*
A Ja Cha Ka Ta Pa Ha*
God protect and preserve us**

It feels like looking and listening from above the galaxies
I’m a fearless dreamer
Run away? I won’t run away
You guys are just in your elements

Shower that cleans your eardrums
Hot soul that never stops

Let’s dance together in that large lot
Hot soul that never stops

DOOM DADA DIVI DA

I observe the third world through meditation
The power of humans that our god gave
Win of the brighter civilization
DOOM DADA DIVI DA
Wishing for the blue light to shine on the new life
We go round and round and round and round, just backwards
Round and around
Only the voices of the people who are all talk but no action are going around
Drive drive drive and drive
Simmering and steaming

Overheated mdia drives the people
Hakunamatata Hakunamatata
DOOM DADA DIVI DA

Wishing for the blue light to shine on the new life
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA DOOM
Let’s go
DOOM DA DA DIVI DA DA

*Those are directly from the Korean Alphabet! That’s the Korean Alphabet song (like the ABC’s)
** Line from the Korean National Anthem

This song has a lot of connotation and as he makes a reference to Basquiat who is a Neo-expressionist know for dichotomous work of art, this piece is actually staggering to understand. Because this delivers polar messages (e.g. "Children go to your corner," but then he goes singing "ABC" I take this as what makes Children in the music industry is the over reliance on Foreign trends (korean alphabet, the basics) but then he does recognize words like Sommelier, Pinot Noir, etc. that are NOT English, but heavily recognized as a world term. Okay so I am actually digesting this very linguistically.) I love love love the Overheated Media (over used, over consumption) drives people to Hakunamatata (No worries, carelessness)

 

Like I said, I could go on forever with this. None of my interpretations would be solidly correct. But I just love picking on his brain. This song is very challenging, I think, if you think this is simple and just entertaining then the message was a flop. I do think you need to think about this as an art form, to be consumed and nourished. Don't just it out.

 

Okay, I am leaving... I think I am ready to pass out.

 

The silhoutte of those women... who I think are changing...

Does that make you a closet ?

 

LOL

I love you.

I think DOOM DADA is perfect. Everybody knows rappers can make their songs as hell.But TOP is different...You know, I love rappers like Eminem, Drake, Mike Shinoda, 50 cents but no one can be like him. TOP is cute and strong and his lyrics are not so et like Enimem's song. I do not saying I don't like hot lyrics or naughty things but I think when TOP says "mass media" I really understand what he's talking about. DOOM DADA is a weird song but not a random song non-sense like "What the fox say" (what piece of song!). Well, Mr. Choi Seunghyun is coming back with a new album and i hope YG let him show us ALL TO US! I just tired of so many solos of G DRAGON or Taeyang .I love JiYong, he is my bias too but I think is time for TOP and he deserves this. He's a great rapper, I mean, the best of, i mean, GD and TOP are the best of Korea.... Well, TOP... 2014 is coming very soon... So many projects...Movies, album solo...and....Hmmm...... Maybe a drama with our Ssantokki? Oh, come on, man....You two playing together.... This is my beautiful dreams! :)
