    A great album! Some of the songs may take me some time to fully appreciate but overall it's very deep, this project explores the environment of these 7 artist from their debut year until recent. There are still so many lines to decipher. I know, slowly-but surely, this album will be running towards the peak rank of my list of favorite albums from them.

    A very emotionally touching Album, with so many songs that speak about issues everyone deals with from time to time. A variety of genres are included and this way made a good job for conveying BTS's message that they will never leave us alone and that we will go through the issues together. Showing us how far they've made it, although it seemed impossible at the beginning.

    It's such a great album! The songs are fresh and diverse. I really liked the songs "louder than bombs" and "zero o'clock". The latter has soothing and comforting lyrics. Also, the song called "ugh!" is a bop. Overall, all the songs from the album are brilliant and I don't think I'm gonna skip any of the songs.

    É um álbum impecável, mostra sobre a união entre os membros a amizade, sobre amar a si mesmo,sobre não deixar que as pessoas comandem sua vida que é apenas pra você ser você mesmo

    It has differs sounds as it has wide range of genres and great lyrics that tell story about nowadays generation concern which so many people can relate, not only about cliche love story. They bring you the roller coaster emotion. Should definitely check it out.

    As a whole, the strong but not particularly unruly “7” is less sure-footed than “Love Yourself: Tear,” the group’s last full-length, from 2018, and the first K-pop album to debut atop the Billboard album chart.

    Taut and primal, “MOTS: 7” is a kind of self-referential homage. ... Each get solo turns to shine here, their collective work is what stands out.

    Persona lacked the natural fluidity and chicness of their best music. Those problems aren’t exactly mitigated here, since most of those songs appear on this album too, but within this new context, they feel like a flashback before the saga continues. Many of the new songs are better about balancing Easter eggs for day-ones with new entry points for more casual listeners.
