Make sure you watch mama exo-m version on your on since it highlighted the exo m members' super power. Plus mama means your majesty in korean. The lyrics is deep and still relevant till this day.
From what I've researched, "Mama" translates to "Your Majesty." Someone can correct me, if my info is wrong. I really enjoy your reactions to EXO. They are truly epic!
fun fact: there's a woman's voice saying thank you in Chinese in the scene while releasing the fire. when it was confirmed it turned out that no woman was involved in the recording. that's so creepy
This is EXO's first song in 2012, but you can hear their voices, this is crazy, they were so young! When I say EXO's vocals are the best thing that ever happened to K-Pop, I mean, it's been 9 years since this song but their voices are great!!!!
In order to really see the full story you actually have to also watch the EXO-M version of "Mama." The whole point of both the EXO-K and EXO-M versions of their songs and each MV is to introduce you to EXO's concept and storyline. If you only watch EXO-K, you only see half the story. "Mama" is like the first episode of EXO's drama -- it sets up everything to come in the rest of the series. And if you miss any part of the first episode you will forever be lost when it comes to the rest of EXO's story. So, in other words, you HAVE to watch the EXO-M version of "Mama." If you watch both versions of their "Mama" MV, you might be able to understand a little more about EXO's mission and everything they have been sent to Earth to do. Because in the EXO-K version the whole story focuses on the K members, but in the M version it will show you the M members and explain their powers and each of their roles in the story. The M version will feature the EXO-M members and they will be the ones singing the main parts of the song. You only see small clips of the M members in the Korean version. But in the Chinese version the story continues, and the EXO-M members are the ones that are highlighted. You have to see both MVs to understand the full story. In Korean Mama is a term they use to address a leader or king or queen. It's a term of reverence and respect. It's similar to saying "Your majesty." If you watch very many historical Korean dramas you will hear the characters call the royal family, and especially the head of the royal family or leader, "Mama." So, in this song, they are speaking to the leader or deity who sent them to Earth, essentially asking, "Now that I'm here, Your Majesty what should I do? How do I fulfill what you have sent me to do?" etc. It's very important that you pay attention to the introduction story in "Mama" because it is literally setting up EXO's storyline. The narrator is telling you EXO's whole origin story, about how EXO have been split up into two groups EXO-K and EXO-M and they are part of the same group and yet separate -- part of two worlds that come together as one, etc. And he is telling you about how the Tree of Life has been split in half to protect it from falling into the Red Forces' control -- each half of the tree representing one half of EXO (EXO-K and EXO-M) -- and EXO's mission is to find the two halves of the tree and reunite them to restore peace in the world. In the EXO-K version of "Mama" the members are using their powers to search for and meet up with the EXO-M members. That is why you see the K members traveling to find the M member. For example, you see Kai using his power of teleportation as he searches for the M members and you see Baekhyun use his power of light and Suho with his power of water, Chanyeol with the power of fire using his Phoenix wings, D.O. with the power of earth and strength and Sehun controlling the wind. Because Xiumin is a member of EXO-M, you see him appear in the mirror because the K members are searching for him and he is being summoned, etc. As the story goes, when EXO arrived on Earth they did not all arrive together. Their story starts out that they were dropped on Earth in different locations all over the world and they have to search for each other and meet up, kind of like in a quest, before they can begin to figure out how to accomplish the tasks they have been sent to Earth to do. When you see the members all together in their "Mama" MVs they are together because they are still on Planet EXO where they are still united. But when you see them separated this is when they have all been sent to Earth.They keep flashing back and forth between present moments and recent past moments. So, how I interpret the story is that at the end they aren't back together yet, but that is a scene from when they were still on EXO Planet as they are preparing to be sent to Earth. The two worlds the narrator talks about in the introduction could possibly be different dimensions, so you often see parts of their story which could be interpreted as them being in different dimensions or time periods or different moments in history. Each of the members in EXO-K has a counterpart in EXO-M, so part of what you were seeing in this MV was them showing you which EXO-K member corresponded with which EXO-M member. For example, Suho (EXO-K) with the power of water corresponds with Xiumin (EXO-M) who has the power of frost/ice and Chanyeol (EXO-K) with the power of fire is Kris' (EXO-M) counterpart because he is the power of flight, and as you will see when you watch the EXO-M MV, Chanyeol has the power of the phoenix and Kris has the power of the dragon, which both animal spirits have fire elements and flight so they connect; D.O. (EXO-K) with the power of force and Chen (EXO-M) with the power of thunder/lightning; and Sehun (EXO-K) who has the power of wind is connected to Tao (EXO-M) who controls time; Baekhyun (K) with the power of light and Lay (M) with the power of healing; and Kai (K) with teleportation and Luhan (M) with telekinesis; etc. That's how they maintain their bond even as members of separate groups. Also, each member in EXO-K has a counterpart in EXO-M that fills the same role in each group. For example, Baekhyun is the main vocalist in EXO-K and Chen is the main vocalist in EXO-M; D.O. is the other main vocalist in K and Luhan was the other main vocalist in M; Chanyeol is the main rapper in K and Kris was the main rapper in M; Sehun is the lead rapper in K and Xiumin is the lead rapper in M; Kai is the main dancer in K and Lay is the main dancer in M; and then it's Suho is a lead vocalist in K and Tao was a rapper/vocalist in M (I'm not sure how these two really work together because Tao is more of a rapper and Suho is a vocalist, but because they are the last two they are put together.) You also need to pay attention to the lyrics for "Mama." The majority of their chant is in English: "Shoot anonymous, anonymous; Heartless, mindless; No one who care about me ... Careless, careless (Mama: Mama in Korean means Your Majesty); Shoot anonymous, anonymous (Mama); Heartless, mindless (Mama); No one who care about me (Mama)" Also, if you pay attention to what the whole song is talking about and what the lyrics mean it will give you even more insight into why EXO have been sent to Earth and what their mission is all about. EXO's storyline begins with them being sent to Earth to try and heal the world and to stop and prevent the Red Force from taking over and corrupting everything. And the story in the lyrics of "Mama" foreshadows what they will have to overcome and understand about humans and our world to accomplish their tasks. EXO kind of takes humanity to task and asks us to explain why we would allow all this anger and hatred to cloud everything around us and why we don't love each other more? It's really a very beautiful message and the more you learn about EXO the more interesting the whole thing becomes. In the song the members, being aliens from another planet, are struggling to understand how we as humans could allow all this evil and bad things to happen all around us, such as war, hatred and the destruction of the environment, etc. and they are daunted by the fact that they are now tasked with figuring out how to fix it all and prevent more evil from taking place. That's why they need to find the two halves of the Tree of Life and reunite them to restore peace. EXO's story is part supernatural and Sci-Fi and part based on reality, which touches on real life events and things that are really happening in the world. And from the very beginning, even during pre-debut days, and everything since then and everything yet to come, it all is connected to that storyline. Everything EXO does and everything you see from them, including Baekhyun and Kai's parts in SuperM, all has something to do with the concept and story that began with "Mama," and each new installment of something from the members expands a little further on EXO's story. Whether it's an MV from the group, a solo project from one of the members, a sub-unit project, a live performance, teaser videos, concert VCRs, or even a good amount of their choreography, it all has been designed to connect to EXO's storyline. Also, the symbols you saw represent each of the members and it has to do with each of their powers. For instance, Kai's symbol is a pyramid and it represents teleportation, and Lay's symbol is a unicorn and it represents his power of healing, etc. (In future MVs and other things to do with EXO, when you see things like a pyramid, you know that is a reference to something to do with Kai, etc.) Even the most minute of details in EXO's content has something to do with their origin story and EXO's storyline. And the tattoos on Kai's face and body say EXO and also all of the EXO members names, or at least the 6 EXO-K members names, as well as EXO's symbol and other hidden clues to EXO's origin story.
in that year, it was simply extraordinary. I'm speechless with the concept of Exo from the beginning of their formation. This concept has been thought up by Lee Soo Man since 1976 and it was realized in 2012.
They have two pre-debut songs before this "What Is Love" & "History". They are LEGENDS since the beginning 🖤 Kai was 18. So yeah, he was still a baby demon then 😂
There is this video called evolution of exo (2012 -2019) by K_star channel it shows exos musical evolution over the years exo always does something new with each album comeback
Hey Tyler and Isaac 👋! Yay, MAMA!!! I absolutely love love love this song, now I’d love to see you watch the EXO-M version, and also their two predebut songs, History and What Is Love.
it’s the fact that not even half of new or even older groups would be able to cover this song so powerfully on terms of vocals… half the new groups, even if i love them, cannot even go past kyungsoo’s first note…
Hey guys, I just want to tell you that thank you for appreciating EXO❤️ I’m happy to see you enjoying Exo’s music. I recommend you to watch their pre-debut song HISTORY and WHAT IS LOVE
'mama' means King/Your majesty in Korean. Yeah, EXO's debut song was so powerful. Lemme share a little bit of the lyrics.. - Your Majesty! Now answer me Why people have changed Has there even been A beautiful time before? They forgot how to love And lost their heart to care They’re busy living with their backs turned The mask of anonymity hides The jealous eye filled with murderous intent Though they see the end, they're still hungry Now are you satisfied? Why won't we look each other in the eye anymore? Why won’t we communicate? Why won't we love? We shed tears at the painful reality once again Please say that we could change things if we want Tell me, Your Majesty, Your Majesty.
You should listen to their pre-debut which came out before this caleed "History". Oh and if you want songs that throw you off theres "Wolf" its really good you have to listen to both the mv and its live they are so good
As far as i know every comeback had a different genres, they have done a lotnof genres since the beginning mostly RnB for the bsides songs. Their 1st 3 songs (2 predebut songs that is What is love and history and the debut song that is Mama) have 3 different genres. You can take a look at their 2 pre debut songs and see the differences. Their song are always unique and didn't follow the tren but made the new tren started. Even with the style and the choreography.. all of them are unique.. I am an EXO stan on 2020 (i didn't interested in any kpop group before) but you know the song that made me fall in love with EXO as an idol group is MAMA, an 8 years old song because of its vocals and uniqueness that i couldn't found in any other kpop group.
This is the most hardest debut song ever. And those high notes..... I am speechless aftet hearing Chen’s high note in wolf. You should react to wolf MV too
Hey guys, I just subscribed in hopes of seeing more Exo reactions, especially the individual guides by Cesar Oh. The best and most current guides of all. From 2020-2021. They are a bit long but you need to see them. Each member has a different personality and have incredible talent. There is a guide for all 9 members, you could do 1 a week. Please, just Cesar Oh videos, not any others that are online. Thanks guys! Oh yeah, their concept: Exo are aliens from another planet, their planet, Exoplanet. They were the roots of The Tree of Life, which kept the balance of the Universe. The evil in the Universe killed the Tree, wanting to covet the powers each member possessed, to use for evil. So they had to hide on different planets, running away from The Red Force.(evil) They all eventually reunited on Earth seeing the death and turmoil on this planet. They use their powers to protect and preserve life. They came and disguised themselves as humans, and at the time they were younger, so they disguised themselves as schoolboys at a high school. So in their mv "Growl" they are dressed in various forms of the gray school uniforms. They also have the power to turn into wolves when angered, as the mvs "Wolf" and "Growl" suggest, beware of making them angry. They do not know the feelings humans possess, but as time passes, they take on more human traits and learn. But the Red Force is always looking to have a chance of influencing them towards the evil side of themselves as humans. Then they would use their powers for destroying life on Earth, and the Universe. But Exo are always fighting the evils, yet learn of love in the meantime. I don't think you necessarily need to watch the Chinese versions unless you want, it's the same except different members featured. I am not invested in the theories behind all songs, I just know the basics and that's good enough for me. 💙🌺
Lightsaber was only a EXO X STAR WARS collaboration for the movie. EXO has their own storyline/concept where they originate from and exo planet and they all have individual superpowers. In MAMA it explains a bit of the beginning and where things started to go wrong.
Can't believe I'm saying this in 2022 but I forgot to explain to you guys when i first saw you react to this MV EXO explained that they heard a ghost woman's voice in the MV only not the audio The ghost said "谢谢" which means "Thank You" in Chinese EXO was so scared that they had goosebumps You can hear the ghost woman say "谢谢" in 6:15 Like i just realized why in the MV it said "谢谢" when i heard the audio it said nothing just trust me listen to the audio of "MAMA" and listen to the MV
Thank you for the good reaction to exo...this debut what make them what they are now....although it didnt go as massive still this debut put there name kpop in industry...see you in the next react.pls react to kokobop electric kiss overdose and more...
As always, thank you for giving us another fun reaction. Hope you would react to more older videos. Exo's concept never gets old although it was almost ten years ago.
EXO has the best vocal line since debut 9 years ago. You can check out the predebut song of Baekhyun and D.O called What Is Love. Their R&B vocal will tell you why they are the best since even predebut haha Kai looks mature and he is very shy off camera. Please do individual guide soon to get to know the members more
Thanks for reacting to EXO MAMA, the most epic debut in history!! Also the first kpop song I had ever heard, which started me on my journey. Also regarding your Lightsaber mention: they are aliens from EXO planet, who have superpowers. As the intro states, they are legends who guard the tree of life. So I think that means they are also Jedi (^_~) but probably just my wishful thinking
You talked about SMCU and the black mamba, but no, in the SMCU say that EXO is one of the Gods creators, that mean that they with other groups create kwanya, but the important is that they have their own universe fighting with the Red force
"They're literally vocal kings from the start." - THIS!!! Everybody would actually agree with it! Exo are very talented since day 1! 😍😍😍
WAY BETTER THAN BLACKPOOP AND BTSBIOT AND I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO KPOP SINCE 2003 💙💜💙💜❤🍼🐷🇯🇵

the most historic debut, being the first group with a unique concept within kpop, if that is... EXO - 'MAMA'
This debut was EPIC. It threw alot of ppl off but i LOVED IT lmao
MAMA IS THE SHIT GUYSSSS. I love this song. You know the intro riff is a faster version of led zeppelin’s Kashmir. It’s so fucking dope.

Hey Tyler and Isaac 👋! Yay, MAMA!!! I absolutely love love love this song, now I’d love to see you watch the EXO-M version, and also their two predebut songs, History and What Is Love.
Next 'History' or 'what is love'... Their predebut songs
the lyric was so good, you guys must read it
This live is a must diamond+coming over+dropthat+power
I second that
They are still a rookie in this era but thier vocals is amazing
it’s the fact that not even half of new or even older groups would be able to cover this song so powerfully on terms of vocals… half the new groups, even if i love them, cannot even go past kyungsoo’s first note…
Hey guys, I just want to tell you that thank you for appreciating EXO❤️ I’m happy to see you enjoying Exo’s music. I recommend you to watch their pre-debut song HISTORY and WHAT IS LOVE
'mama' means King/Your majesty in Korean.
Yeah, EXO's debut song was so powerful. Lemme share a little bit of the lyrics..
- Your Majesty! Now answer me
Why people have changed
Has there even been
A beautiful time before?
They forgot how to love
And lost their heart to care
They’re busy living with their backs turned
The mask of anonymity hides
The jealous eye filled with murderous intent
Though they see the end, they're still hungry
Now are you satisfied?
Why won't we look each other in the eye anymore?
Why won’t we communicate? Why won't we love?
We shed tears at the painful reality once again
Please say that we could change things if we want
Tell me, Your Majesty, Your Majesty.
EXO IS CRAZY SINCE THEY DEBUT! MAMA is such a masterpiece. Please check out OVERDOSE next guys
Exo debute is very special and rare in 2012 .At that time was still in age 18-22 very young
You should listen to their pre-debut which came out before this caleed "History". Oh and if you want songs that throw you off theres "Wolf" its really good you have to listen to both the mv and its live they are so good
As far as i know every comeback had a different genres, they have done a lotnof genres since the beginning mostly RnB for the bsides songs. Their 1st 3 songs (2 predebut songs that is What is love and history and the debut song that is Mama) have 3 different genres. You can take a look at their 2 pre debut songs and see the differences. Their song are always unique and didn't follow the tren but made the new tren started. Even with the style and the choreography.. all of them are unique..
I am an EXO stan on 2020 (i didn't interested in any kpop group before) but you know the song that made me fall in love with EXO as an idol group is MAMA, an 8 years old song because of its vocals and uniqueness that i couldn't found in any other kpop group.
This is the most hardest debut song ever.
And those high notes..... I am speechless aftet hearing Chen’s high note in wolf.
You should react to wolf MV too
Best debut song in Kpop history I think ❤️
Hey guys, I just subscribed in hopes of seeing more Exo reactions, especially the individual guides by Cesar Oh. The best and most current guides of all. From 2020-2021. They are a bit long but you need to see them. Each member has a different personality and have incredible talent. There is a guide for all 9 members, you could do 1 a week. Please, just Cesar Oh videos, not any others that are online. Thanks guys!
Oh yeah, their concept: Exo are aliens from another planet, their planet, Exoplanet. They were the roots of The Tree of Life, which kept the balance of the Universe. The evil in the Universe killed the Tree, wanting to covet the powers each member possessed, to use for evil. So they had to hide on different planets, running away from The Red Force.(evil)
They all eventually reunited on Earth seeing the death and turmoil on this planet. They use their powers to protect and preserve life. They came and disguised themselves as humans, and at the time they were younger, so they disguised themselves as schoolboys at a high school. So in their mv "Growl" they are dressed in various forms of the gray school uniforms. They also have the power to turn into wolves when angered, as the mvs "Wolf" and "Growl" suggest, beware of making them angry. They do not know the feelings humans possess, but as time passes, they take on more human traits and learn. But the Red Force is always looking to have a chance of influencing them towards the evil side of themselves as humans. Then they would use their powers for destroying life on Earth, and the Universe. But Exo are always fighting the evils, yet learn of love in the meantime. I don't think you necessarily need to watch the Chinese versions unless you want, it's the same except different members featured. I am not invested in the theories behind all songs, I just know the basics and that's good enough for me.
💙🌺
Yes, we (ExoLs) are KING STAN! 😎
This debut song is really awesome
Lightsaber was EXO's collaboration with Star Wars. It was a promotional song in South Korea for Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
I hope u can also react in EXO-M's MAMA version and mama in korean means your majesty
Please watch EXOM "MAMA" it's the Chinese/Mandarin version. Please
Kai and Sehun was 18 in this era 😂
Lightsaber was only a EXO X STAR WARS collaboration for the movie. EXO has their own storyline/concept where they originate from and exo planet and they all have individual superpowers. In MAMA it explains a bit of the beginning and where things started to go wrong.
Yesss and I fall in love EXO when i heard this song. ❤️
Legendary.
The song uses a riff from Led Zeppelin's Kashmir in the background as well as the end of Guns N Roses' November Rain.
Yessss please react to their individual guides
I hope you can check out EXO's b-side songs, you'll never regret it...
It's an epic song.
Love their reaction!!! 😆😆😆
I miss EXO
Can't believe I'm saying this in 2022 but
I forgot to explain to you guys when i first saw you react to this MV
EXO explained that they heard a ghost woman's voice in the MV only not the audio
The ghost said "谢谢" which means "Thank You" in Chinese
EXO was so scared that they had goosebumps
You can hear the ghost woman say "谢谢" in 6:15
Like i just realized why in the MV it said "谢谢" when i heard the audio it said nothing just trust me listen to the audio of "MAMA" and listen to the MV
React to EXO Acoustic Session in Japan
Legendary debut song #mama#exo#2012.

React to their performance at the 2018 Winter Olympics please!!
please more exo reactions 💗💗💗
As always, thank you for giving us another fun reaction. Hope you would react to more older videos. Exo's concept never gets old although it was almost ten years ago.
idol with a million talents..but their agency is too limiting their activities..
EXO has the best vocal line since debut 9 years ago. You can check out the predebut song of Baekhyun and D.O called What Is Love. Their R&B vocal will tell you why they are the best since even predebut haha
Kai looks mature and he is very shy off camera. Please do individual guide soon to get to know the members more
Next EXO "THE EVE" or "LOVE ME RIGHT"
please react to exo dimond,coming over,drop that,power performance thats soooo epic please react to that
Exo 'wolf' is also their epic song
Please you SHOULD react to diamond+coming over+run this+drop that+power live performance that performance was insane🔥
I expected your surprise to see Kai with the screamo
Exo was crazyy for this
Me encanta su reacción a EXO siempre lo espero con ansias :)
Thanks for reacting to EXO MAMA, the most epic debut in history!! Also the first kpop song I had ever heard, which started me on my journey.
Also regarding your Lightsaber mention: they are aliens from EXO planet, who have superpowers. As the intro states, they are legends who guard the tree of life. So I think that means they are also Jedi (^_~) but probably just my wishful thinking
Check out lyrics too. Really meaningful
I have watched all of your exo reactions 😅😅 i need new ones
6:50 this is the first time ever I saw the right guy made that face lol
Please more reacting to exo
When I first heard this song, the first thing that came to my mind is Bohemian Rhapsody. Best Kpop debut for me.
You guys should react to both version k and m
exo comes from exo planet , the two branches are exo k and exo m
THAT HAIRR LITERALLY REPRESENT OLDER KPOP SONG
Exo love❤️💋
This makes me really want to cry please we want more
THE EVE AND UNIVERSE
Next is What is love. Their predebut song.
EXO ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ 😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰
You talked about SMCU and the black mamba, but no, in the SMCU say that EXO is one of the Gods creators, that mean that they with other groups create kwanya, but the important is that they have their own universe fighting with the Red force
Exo👑♥️🥰
