BTS and Steve Aoki tease 40-second collaboration and ARMY has already declared it bop of the year
This afternoon Steve Aoki released the news he had teamed up with BTS once more for a track, Waste It On Me.
And although the full track comes out tomorrow and Steve only teased a 40-second snippet of the banger, the internet has already gone into full-blown meltdown with the mere ear-grazing of the song.
Seriously, imagine what its going to be like tomorrow when the full thing comes out?
The main takeaway of today? It seemed to be that it was the first tune the K-pop lads had sung/rapped/owned in English.
Which is MASSIVE!
Even though BTS hasnt publicly announced anything thus far, immediately after Steves teaser dropped ARMYs went into overdrive as they tweeted the hashtag #WasteItOnMe to get the small teaser ahead of tomorrows unveiling.
As social media will tell you, the timeline was LIT.
If this is an all-English track I guarantee you were still gonna get the BTS twist on things, Im expecting some mega word play here
#WasteItOnMe

Good day Mr. @steveaoki ,
May I ask if Suga, J-Hope, and RM are going to rap in English, too? I would like to formally inform you that I am not ready for this.#WasteItOnMe @BTS_twt— ·• mono's whore •· || trívíα: nαmjσσn íѕ lσvє (@knjsupremacists) October 24, 2018
i can guarantee this song will reach a whole new audience. no one can try to use the excuse that the song is in korean/they cant understand. they have no choice but to give the song a chance & like it. chances are- people will like the song not realizing its BTS. #WasteItOnMe

But the general consensus was pure admiration for the group, who somehow managed to release a song right in the middle of a world tour, just days after leader RM released his first solo mixtape.
