Ugh, a hip hop track with gunshot sounds blaring in the background produced by the rappers of the group- RM, Suga and J-HOPE showcases their insane skills as rappers and producers and on the other hand the singers of the group manage to rile you up emotionally with their voice and with songs like inner child-member taehyung's solo song that he sings to his younger self who was going through a rough time.The stories weaved into this one album from the Persona to their personal makes you want to know more about the individual members. This album showcases how BTS is not one artist but a coming together of 7 incredible artists.… Expand

    Once you understand BTS struggles being from a small company and how they overcome the obstacles and their songs touched our hearts by talking about real human issues such as mental health, and how young people suffer nowadays in life to find job and to be on the top.
    They didn't use any nudity like all the songs in the music industry nowadays that are meaningless and full of bad influence on kids/teens.

In fact, the way it deals with it’s darkness is not self-indulgent, but it’s hopeful, without being cheesy. It also is probably one of their most personal albums to date.
    I’m honestly blown away by everything - from vocals, rapping & melodies, to production & mixing. A big surprise for me was the track “Louder than bombs“, co-written by Troye Sivan. It’s probably one of the biggest departures from their sound. It felt like an early Placebo b-side. And that’s a compliment. It’s one of their darkest, but also you can’t help wanting to repeat it over and over. A+ from me!    … Expand

    Wow. This album is better than Tear for sure. Black Swan and My Time have the best production on the album. I think ON is their first mainly performance-oriented title track since Not Today. The bridge is insane. I personally happy to see such song as UGH. It has very strong lyrics, along with Zero o'clock Black Swan and Inner Child. My fav track is Friends.

    Es uno de sus mejores álbumes de seguro estará en un top 3 de cualquier Army, el sonido, el ritmo, la música, las letras, los vocales, el rap y el sentimiento que le ponen es bellísimo. Como fan de hace años me siento muy orgullosa de su música, de ellos como artistas y personas, han pasado por todo, han crecido muy bien artísticamente y personalmente.

Como fan de hace años me siento muy orgullosa de su música, de ellos como artistas y personas, han pasado por todo, han crecido muy bien artísticamente y personalmente. La música de BTS siempre es buena, cada canción en sus álbumes es genial, lo más increíble son sus letras, la sinceridad que le ponen, sus experiencias, sus sentimientos, sus pensamientos y sueños, no es difícil ser empático con estos chico, son súper talentosos pero son re humanos, tienen un corazón puro y es por eso que su música es tan fantástica porque el artista lo es. Es difícil hacerle cumplidos a Bangtan últimamente porque cada vez vuelven con algo mejor y mejor y las palabras se quedan cortísimas para alagarlos por su arduo trabajo porque no es solo talento sino pasión y mucho esfuerzo. BTS siempre es un 1000 de 10 para mí … Expand

    This album is very diverse. BTS explore many different genres and sounds. Their lyrics are very relatable, and sometimes heart wrenching. In an interview BTS said they wanted to make music that isn't confined to any genre, and I strongly feel that they demonstrated that here. Each song has a very unique sound and message that I believe could never be replicated.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album managed to surprise me a lot, it contains music styles completely different from each other, it doesn't follow a pattern, and I believe that's exactly what BTS can stand out and be different from others, because they can always innovate and bring better things and different from the old ones, still leaving their mark and touching everyone with their powerful lyrics that talk about important issues and make us reflect. Simply amazing, grade 10 !.… Expand

    Had high hopes for this album and BTS shot straight through them. Filled with songs of different genres and different moods, Map of the Soul: 7 really does delve deeper into BTS's own psyche. BTS's music always exceeds my expectations, and I continue to raise the bar every time.

    Falls flat on melodies and has too many cheesy lyrics. Some songs feel disjointed. It would be a stronger album if a few of the songs in the second half were left on the chopping block.

    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.
