Rap Monster announced that he is officially changing his stage name from Rap Monster to RM.
In a blog post in the official fan cafe of BTS, Rap Monster posted a lengthy post explaining why he wanted to change his name.
“When I was a trainee, I started calling myself Rap Monster because of a song I did.
Then naturally, I just kept saying this was my stage name and it stuck.
After promoting under this name for awhile, I realized my name was really long and the name Rap Monster wasn’t representative of the type of music I wanted to do in the future.
Also, as time went by, people referred to me was Rapmon or RM for short.
I have decided to change my name to RM to mark a different period in my artistic path.
I will broaden my scope in my music and work towards a change with this new name, RM.”
— RM
He unofficially announced that he was changing his name on September 20 when he was on DJ Ebro’s radio show, Beats1.
