    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album portrays bts journey as a whole. The elements in the album are so diverse and unique and each track compliments the other. There is continuity among the tracks which will amaze your mind and soul. there are moments where you will sob and the other where u will bop ur head crazily.
    the lyrics and the ensembling of the each song is so distinctly taken care of. the clarity of voices of each singer in the band amazed me. This album is definitely worth the hype and everyone should listen to it    … Expand

    O álbum é incrivelmente perfeito, com vários ritmos de música cultural, uma diversificação dela.

    One of their best works! BTS outdo themselves every single time. Louder than bombs, filter, we are bulletproof and on are my favourite tracks.

    It's amazing how these guys can pull off anything and better each time. They deserve more recognition with the works that they've put out. The vocal range, the story and meaning behind these songs, the choreography, it's undeniable even if you aren't a fan that BTS deserve so much more than this. I hope they keep producing bomb music as always. Sending in my well wishes.

    The album is honestly the best album I have ever listened to. It has such sweet emotional tracks about the boys themselves such as Friends, Inner Child and We Are Bulletproof: The Eternal and such boppy songs such as Outro: EGO. it shares a deep message with the fans that ,in my opinion, no other musician has done BTS are truly the boyband of the century

    From vocals, lyricism, production. Bop after bop. I've been a fan since ly:tear and thought nothing could ever replace her spot. Love being proved wrong.

    As músicas estão simplesmente incríveis! Impossível não ter sua alma tocada por esta obra prima com 20 faixas que vão de críticas sociais diretas à letras de conforto. Parabéns ao BTS pelo talento e versatilidade.

    I am not a BTS fan but my sister is and she sent me the link on the new album and I was beyond shook. It's a masterpiece. The diversity, the talent, the vocals, and most importantly the meanings behind those lyrics!! I use to think bts was overrated but now I really think they're underrated. Seriously, give these dudes a chance, you'll see why they're loved and cherished by their fans.

    The songs on the album are inspiring and exciting, the way they convey their message is incredible. Hoseok said that we would know when we heard the songs, now I understand what he meant. The lyrics are complete and deep like never before. This album is the best.

    I love this album, especially ON, Black Swan, We are bulletproof: Eternal and Louder than bombs. Every song is a whole new and fresh vibe that people should really give them a try. I am not good in explaining how it feels, so I will leave it to you on your own taste. Listen to it without prejudice and you will fall in love!

    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.
