I'm sure you've heard of BTS, the popular K-Pop group that's been taking over the world. But did you know that SUGA is an incredibly talented artist? He has a solo mixtape called Agust D, which was released in 2016. In fact, he's been performing under this name ever since he was just starting out as a rapper in South Korea. So let's get started on the 5 things you should know about him!
First off, Min Yoongi, whom we all adore as SUGA from BTS, is a multi-talented artist with layers to his personality. Just like how we all have different sides to us, Yoongi too has various facets to his artistic self. And that's where Agust D comes into play!
So, why "Agust D"? Well, if you play around with the letters, you'll notice something cool. "Agust" is actually "August" (the month he was born in) without the 'u', and "D" stands for Daegu, his hometown. But wait, there's more! If you reverse "DT", it stands for "Daegu Town". Pretty neat, right?
Now, onto the "how" part. Agust D is like a canvas for Yoongi, where he paints his raw emotions, personal experiences, and unfiltered thoughts. While SUGA gives us those killer verses in BTS songs, Agust D delves deeper into his personal struggles, dreams, and stories that he might not share as SUGA. It's his way of keeping it real with his fans and himself.
In essence, Agust D is Yoongi's way of wearing his heart on his sleeve, sharing his journey, and connecting with fans on a more personal level. And we're all here for it!
SUGA has been a member of BTS since 2013, and he uses his real name as his stage name. He's one of the rappers in the group, as well as an frequent songwriter and producer.
SUGA's mixtape was called "Agust D", which presumably comes from him being born in August. The fourth letter in Korean is 'd' or 'dd.'
The name means that SUGA has two sides to him: one is the more traditional rapper we see on stage, and the other is this alter ego.
When you think about it, it makes sense! After all, everyone has a side they want to show others and another side they keep hidden away from prying eyes. On top of that, SUGA wants his fans to guess what his next move will be--and so far we've only seen glimpses of what he's capable of!
You may be surprised to learn that the rapper's alter ego Agust D likes to listen to rock n' roll and reggae music when he's working on his rap style. SUGA has said that he likes to listen to rock n' roll and reggae music when he's working on his rap style, which is why we can hear those influences in many of his songs.

"I'm always listening [to] reggae and rock 'n' roll...It doesn't matter if I'm at home or traveling somewhere else; if there are headphones available nearby then I'll take them."
