Mentions of the singles

Carlobunnie, Why is there no mention of "People Pt. 2" (your excellent article) or "Haegeum" in the Solo career paragraph? Estyxxxx (talk) 21:15, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No particular reason. I just didn't include them when updating all the other information at the time. They've been added now, though anyone else could've inserted them in the meantime. -- Carlobunnie (talk) 23:36, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Tour concert photos

Here are some photos from his April 27 concert at UBS Arena, New York. I think it would be nice to post some pictures or create a gallery. Aioramu (talk) 10:38, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You can post some photos that are relevant to the article but Wikipedia is not a indiscriminate collection of images Evaders99 (talk) 22:25, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Article name

Recently RM's article was changed from the dab rapper to musician. The reason was the following: "He's not only a rapper, but also a songwriter, music producer, and occasional singer". Same can be argued about Suga. There is already an article for Suga (musician) which redirects here. I'm not very good at moving pages so I wanted to see if anyone would oppose the move before requesting it. - Ïvana (talk) 15:54, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I personally didn't agree with RM's page move and didn't get the chance to oppose it the first time. So I'm definitely not in favor of this one being moved. I mean it's obvious that their musicians but I don't think we need to make that distinction when I feel that it would unnecessarily be disambiguating it further.

D-Day album and tour should be added to the intro

Both of his mixtapes are mentioned but not his first album D-Day, which had actually set the record for first day sales for a rap album, besting even the likes of Drake and Eminem. Rumor has it sales were over 1 million, but I don't know where to go to for source.

He also recently completed a 2-month US/Asia tour with the US portion setting several records, including the highest grossing arena concerts in US history by a rap artist of any nationality, and the first rapper to earn over $3 million in a single arena concert (which he did on each of his three performances at the Forum in Inglewood CA, per https://touringdata.wordpress.com/2023/05/12/suga-d-day-tour/ and https://twitter.com/touringdata/status/1661086707104530438).
