    Perfeito, as melodias todas lendárias!! Nenhum defeito, os vocais, os visuais, o conceito, OS RAPS tudo está em outro nível. Ninguém está fazendo como o BTS nessa industria, e esse álbum comprava minha tese: eles não tem uma música ruim. Obrigada pelo trabalho duro Bangtan, eu estou sempre orgulhosa de vocês

    The whole album is reflection on their past-selves. The lyrics are so well written. Ugh! is such a hard-hitting song. 'Louder than bombs' is one of my favorite track. 'Black Swan' can resonate any artist's heart. 'ON' give you an inspiration to fight. 'We are Bulletproof: Eternal' gives reassurance that they are alone but together in the journey.
    I am so happy and proud!!! I hope

    Ai ai minha relação de amor e ódio com esse album...
    As faixas impecaveis, letras perfeitas, conceito muito bom POREM o fato da empresa ter pego dois albuns e transformado em um me faz achar ele um pouco bagunçado e incoeso em alguns pontos. Fora que acho a apelação emocional que ele traz exagerada, mas nada disso diminui o fato de que as musicas em si são impecáveis,

The album’s breadth, and its effortless blend of R&B, rap, and dance confidently rival the works of previous golden ages of pop. At a sprawling 20 tracks, the album contains some truly uplifting, emotional, and epic moments - the masterpieces “Friends” and “Outro” produce chills when you hear the assembly of voices come in. This is Blockbuster pop on a whole new level - a level of musical expertise you don’t see anymore. As an entire package it’s possibly the most important pop record since Taylor Swift’s 1989. Expand

    Quite a challenge for a predominantly non-english album to garner the international acclaim it has, but the catchy beat and constant reinvention of the group's sound, introduction of varied influences in the musical elements and the soul-baring lyrics is enough to catch the attention of acurious and dare I say, doubtful Thomas and Jane out there.

    One of their best works until now. I really think i have no words to describe how amazing this album is. There seem to be a song for everybody.
    I absolutely love the way they love each other

    This album is worth 10 months of waiting, absolutely incredible sounds with strong messages. I love when they make their music about themselves, not anyone else. It is cool when they create songs for fans (like in MOTS: Persona) but listening to them singing out loud their thoughts and concerns just makes me feel relatable as a human being.

    I think this album is something very close to me. something very native. each song reveals to me the already familiar side of the group with a new facet. I even cried from some songs. BTS really really grew up as artists, and as very dear to me people at some mental level. very proud of them. thanks for such a beautiful album. purple you, guys

    The song Black Swan is so impressive. The lyrics so thought provoking. It touches deep in the hearts of all artists. The song is pure poetry. Yes the darker thoughts of losing your life’s passion is something we all have experienced. But the positive outcome just rounded out this song.
    The whole album is a nice ride through many genres. It is nice to have such variety all in one album. I

    The whole album is a nice ride through many genres. It is nice to have such variety all in one album. I gave 7 a 10 because I really feel this group does a lot when it comes to trying new sounds. I love open minded artists who aren’t afraid to give a variety of sounds. I didn’t need English for the music to move me. I felt it from the top of my soul to the bottom. This is what music is supposed to do. They hit the bullseye as an artist. Thank you for such a lovely gift.

    An ambitious album with greater insights to the inner workings of the band. A truly genre agnostic offering but nothing feels Out of place. I would have jettisoned the Persona tracks except for the intro but otherwise it’s almost pop perfection.
    My standouts:
    Interlude Shadow
    ON
    UGH
    Louder Than Bombs
    Zero Oclock

    Definitely their best and most personal album yet. incredibly genre diverse, there's something for everybody. several songs touch on the pain and hardships they've gone through on their climb of the ladder of worldwide fame, and how they've accepted their destiny and are on the path of healing. on the nostalgic tracks "we are bulletproof: eternal" and "moon" they speak to their fans, army,Definitely their best and most personal album yet. incredibly genre diverse, there's something for everybody. several songs touch on the pain and hardships they've gone through on their climb of the ladder of worldwide fame, and how they've accepted their destiny and are on the path of healing. on the nostalgic tracks "we are bulletproof: eternal" and "moon" they speak to their fans, army, and it's quite touching. in songs "ugh" and "respect" there's social commentary, and fun, driving beats with a strong hip-hop feel. it's a fanstic album, they've grown tremendously as artists, and constantly prove their skills and sincerity. the world waits eagerly for their next move.

    The only reason I am not giving this album a perfect 10 is that I believe this group has room to grow even more. This album is cohesive in a way that some of their previous releases have not achieved. While their songs have always been excellent, with some exceptional standouts, their albums have not always been consistently put together in a way that makes sense.

    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.
