    BE was everything Army can expect. Nostalgic, dancing, and all you can imagined. I caught myself singing Dynamite who helping promete this album, and thinking a lot in my life on Life Goes On. All the music from BTS move me because you can't underdstand what they say but you can feel the message. Music is without bordelines, if you have love you have all.

And there's others like Dis-ease and Telepathy that makes us wanna dance and smile and hug each other. And since the point was to bring comfort, there's no diss track, no negative words. It's only BTS speaking pure positivity :)
    And ARMYs seem to be very satisfied with what they've delivered too, as I am.    … Expand

    Álbum feito pelos próprios membros, as músicas mostram muita personalidade além de serem muito bem produzidas. Um bom álbum para se escutar durante uma tarde chuvosa, trás sensação de conforto e calmaria. Assim como os outros trabalhos do grupo este álbum é originalmente perfeito.

    O álbum é impecável, já nasceu aclamadíssimo. Amo como os meninos colocaram todo o coração nesse projeto e acima de qualquer coisa tentaram trazer mensagens de conforto pro fandom. Esse álbum foi para os fãs, sem dúvidas.

    Esse álbum não foi composto pensando nos charts, em agradar a massa. Foi algo feito pela arte, para curar. Foi composto para confortar quem precisa, abraçar com força e afirmar que tudo vai ficar bem, que a vida continua.

It's been a tough year for the world, and BTS's album BE, from title to non-title, is sad and hopeful, candid and powerful. After their August English single Dynamite brought joy to people in need, this time BE has a completely different emotional experience! It's healing!… Expand

    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.
