iKON’s Bobby in the show Moneygraphy finally discussed in detail the diss-incident between him and RM of BTS. He explained that it was all in good faith, it was just his rapping style that he brought to the song. RM understood Bobby's intentions and responded in his own clever way. Bobby reminisced about the rap battle, emphasizing that 'dissing' is actually a form of respect among rappers. He admired rappers like Kendrick Lamar who showcased this in his iconic track, Control.


Bobby further jokingly added that he did not go after EXO or he would have been dead. Instead, he explained that he picked RM out of admiration for his talent and passion for rapping. Bobby was confident that RM would come back with a strong response, which is exactly what he was hoping for.
