Fans raise questions about whether a subtle diss battle is taking place between Bobby and Rap Monster

Boyfriend, VIXX, BTS, Rap Monster, iKON, Bobby

iKON Bobby's lyrics from "Come Here", "YGGR", and "Raise Your Guard and Bounce" and have been recently receiving attention among fans for possibly being targeted towards fellow male idol groups. The speculations were whispered among fans for some time now, and with a recent tweet on BTS's Twitter, the questions have been fired up again.

In "Raise Your Guard and Bounce", the lyrics read, "When stick-thin boyfriends all act tough in front of you girl" Some pointed out these lyrics were aimed at boy group Boyfriend because of not only the word 'boyfriend', but also due to the fact that 'You Girl' is '?? ??', the Korean title of Boyfriend's 'Obsession'.

In "YGGR", the lyrics read, "You guys have a long way to go. Boy group rappers come on stage with a clock dance. If you're tone deaf, go practice." These specific words are speculated to be towards VIXX and their 'clock' choreography for "Eternity". In the same song, Bobby also tells everyone to back off except B.I, Zico, Mino, and P.O.

In "Come Here', the lyrics read, "They call me a monster, I never called myself that. If talent were looks, I'm Won Bin in front of bulletproof glass". Fans wondered if these lyrics were in reference to BTS, and more specifically, Rap Monster, because of the word 'bulletproof' [aka 'bangtan' in Korean], and the mention of 'monster'.

Some fans also thought that it was more than just a coincidence that the tweet found on BTS's Twitter of the screenshot below was posted around the time "Come Here" was released. They say Rap Monster was the one to tweet the capture, which showed Verbal Jint's "Do What I Do" with the highlighted lyrics: "With that kind of skill how did you dare think to mess with me?". This left fans speculating once again that perhaps Rap Monster had accepted Bobby's lyrics as a diss battle invitation and had fired back in a subtle manner.

As with all speculations, some fans say these are valid analysis of Bobby's lyrics, while others point out it's ridiculous to analyze so deep into them. Which side do you agree with?
