Suga Opens Up About ‘AMYGDALA’
Suga is currently on his first world tour as a soloist and is promoting ‘D-Day’ during his shows. The BTS rapper also dropped the documentary ‘SUGA: Road to D-Day’ where he interacts with other artists he collaborated with. In the documentary, Min Yoongi opened up about the true meaning behind the track “AMYGDALA”.
“There’s a thing called an ‘amygdala.’ Your brain stores all of your unpleasant memories in the amygdala,” he confirms. The rapper adds that it does this “so you can prepare yourself for those types of situations in the future.”
“I have massive mood swings whenever I’m working on this song. To work on it, I have to bring up some of my unpleasant memories,” Min Yoongi stated. Still, he points out that this is “a very important process to learn to control those memories.”
Min Yoongi is currently on the road for the ‘Suga Agust D Tour’ in North America.
