1. BOBBY (hangul:… Read Full Bio ↴There is more than one artist with the name Bobby.
1. BOBBY (hangul: 바비) (born Kim Ji-won; December 21, 1995 in Seoul, South Korea), is a South Korean rapper and member of the boy group iKON, currently signed under 143 Entertainment.
In 2014, he was the winner of the third season of the Mnet rap competition Show Me the Money. Alongside MINO, he is part of the hip hop duo MOBB, who released the four-track album The Mobb in September 2016.
2. BOBBY first attempted to make contact with Tom Greenberg (Twiglet) at college, but no one really noticed BOBBY until everyone had already graduated. He had, in all likelihood, been there since early ’09—a stowaway on Uncle Marth’s back chunk—soaking up all the sick milk he could stick his soft little hands into. When Tom finally did meet him face to face in the Spring of 2010, Bobby became nervous and got sick all over his little brown tap shoes and turned into a mist. He was naught but vapor for a whole month, but soon after that, they fell in together; Tom making tunes to accompany Bobby’s sad dances.
After a few shows put on for the local ghouls down at the rotary club, it was clear BOBBY had talent, and Tom started making plans for a BIG SHOW. A group was to be assembled. He got together a few of his college buds that he knew played music. He put Martin Zimmermann (Chunk) on the cans, Paolo Menuez (Pillow) on thweedles, Julian Labat (Crumbles) on low-end, Roby Moulton (Moldy) on wisps and got Molly Sarle (of Mountain Man) to contribute vocally, at the request of BOBBY himself. The resulting sound was a swollen lump of blooming, techni-color spores cast adrift on a warm bed of foam.
Unfortunately, it was all a bit too much for Bobby. On the night of the BIG SHOW, he once again got worked up and became sick all over Chunk. BOBBY fled the stage as a mist. Despite BOBBY’s sudden and unexpected departure, the band soldiered on with the performance. The crowd was hurt and angry at first (why had their beloved, lethargic, dancing wunderkind abandoned them?), but the heaving waves of sonorous tones soon spilled into their restless hearts. The recordings from the show caught the ear of Tim Putnam, who quickly signed the group to his label, Partisan Records.
Hot off the success of the BIG SHOW, the group decided to shack up together. They found a suitable home in western Massachusetts in the town of Montague; a ‘ranch’ style house nestled between a giant gravel pit and a wilderness preserve complete with a filled-in pool and busted sauna. In the crucible of isolation, and in preparation for their recording debut, the blooming lump of spores that they had cultivated for the BIG SHOW blossomed even further. The music was going well, but a name for the group still eluded them. For many months they struggled with this, but in the end decided to name it after their missing front man, BOBBY, still assumed to be lurking as a dark mist within the music.
3. BOBBY was formed in Stockholm, Sweden by longtime friends Torben (synthesizers) and Julian (Vocals). By that time BOBBY was like from another planet with their positive popsongs and romantic synthesizers. Julian and his bass joins the band Kamera (98-01)
4. Bobby was the hardcore side-project of Profanatica/Havohej founder Paul Ledney and Malcom Tent.
Sooner or Later
Bobby Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
she´ll be taken by surprise
so here we go again
gathering our sins
at the busstop, in the neon, tonight
I wonder how the beautiful will welcome us tonight
but I think they´ll be just fine
you has just got to be there
at the crimescene, on the dancefloor alright
(and love is all around)
Sooner or later
I´ll be coming for your love
Sooner or later
I wonder when all my friends just disappeared out in the night
high on anything you like
and as the music fades away, the only sound that I could make
is just a mumble to the driver, goodnight
(and love is all around)
Sooner or later
I´ll be coming for your love
Sooner or later
Sooner or later
I´ll be knocking at your door
Sooner or later...
...Sooner or later
I´ll come smashing through your door
Sooner or later
In the lyrics of Bobby's song "Sooner or Later," there is a sense of anticipation and mystery surrounding the city and the night that lies ahead. The singer wonders if the city is aware of what is about to unfold, suggesting a feeling of impending change or surprise. As they gather their sins at the bus stop under the neon lights, there is a sense of reckoning or confrontation with their past actions. The setting of the bus stop symbolizes a moment of transition or departure from the familiar.
The mention of the beautiful welcoming the singer and their companions suggests a contrast between innocence and experience. Despite any potential challenges or upheavals, there is a sense of assurance that everything will be fine. The atmosphere is charged with an unspoken energy, drawing everyone to the crimescene on the dancefloor. The repetition of "love is all around" hints at the pervasive nature of emotions and connections in this environment, where interactions are intense and vivid.
The chorus, with its repeated invocation of "Sooner or later, I'll be coming for your love," conveys a sense of inevitability and determination in pursuing a romantic interest. The lyrics suggest a persistent pursuit of affection, with a tone that oscillates between urgency and patience. This theme of longing and desire is underscored by the images of friends disappearing into the night, indulging in hedonistic pleasures and leaving the singer to confront their own thoughts.
As the music fades and the night progresses, the singer finds themselves alone with their thoughts, muttering a farewell to the driver as they head home. The abrupt shift from the bustling nightlife to a moment of solitude underscores the transient nature of connections and experiences. The final lines, with the repeated phrase "Sooner or later," hint at a sense of inevitability and unresolved tension, culminating in the visceral imagery of coming "smashing through your door." Overall, the lyrics of "Sooner or Later" paint a vivid portrait of a night filled with anticipation, desire, and the complexities of human emotions.
