    The timing and release of this album could not be more perfect. BTS released an album with the intention of helping comfort millions during the pandemic and they did exactly that. I haven't come across many albums with no skips, but this album literally doesn't have a bad song.

    For better or worse, Be’s sights are trained on BTS fans, meaning the album is too insular for broader appeal.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Regular album from a regular boy band, i think people give them a lot more credit than they deserve.
    Maybe a little bit of passion inside their lyrics could help the lack of creativity    … Expand

    A perfect album for the quarantine. It's lyrics are so healing and the music calms you down.

    I saw many swifties traying to give bad reviews to Plastic Hearts and BE, we know that they shouldn't win, so, here is my review.
    I listened this album, and I think it's good.
    Also, I have to say that the Grammys performance of Dynamite was very cool!

    Siento que son canciones muy genéricas, no se enfocan en un mismo punto para mi

    0 because K-Pop stans try to come for every achievement their favorite artists don’t have in music by doing the same.

    ÉXITO NO ES IGUAL A CALIDAD. que disco tan cliché en serio, producto para niñas con mentalidad de bebés. es un disco muy tonto, la letras súper clichés y la producción nada que un disco hecho por un amante de la música infantil pueda hacer. SÚPER MEH.

    El álbum es simplemente el mismo tema de sus otros proyectos, no hay novedades, las fans se siguen deslumbrado por el. Físico de cada uno, son un grupo que lograron cosas como otros en su momento, sólo otra boyband más del momento

    Kpop is boring. But I guess that they have songs with meaning. But it's just bland to me

    BE is the album in which BTS's sound crosses over to cement the type of legacy they're building – one that started in youth and is very proudly Korean, but that makes sense for any age or place.

    Frustration and grief animate these songs, but it’s their simplicity and specificity that make them compelling.

    Deciding to reflect on states of mind some of us could resonate to – especially this year – BE serves as a chronicle of what 2020 has been during lockdown: a year of uncertainty, anxiety, depression and frustration. But it also delivers hope for the future.
