    One of the best albums of the year, it presents a variety of musical styles, the message and lyrics of these songs revolve around their experiences, also the album is dedicated to "his universe" "his biggest love" and more, BTSARMY his fans . I sincerely believe that bts and their "army" fans have a very nice artist-fan relationship

    Este álbum contiene muchas canciones significativas, te pueden dar una palmada en la espalda si se escuchan en el momento correcto. Me gusta el hecho de que este álbum haya sido uno de los más personales del artista. La letra e intención de cada canción, refleja el arduo trabajo qué hay en el álbum.

    De verdad me encantó este álbum, tiene tanta variedad. Una canción es pop y a la siguiente estás escuchando un ritmo latino, y luego una balada, y luego tipo trap. ¡Lo amé!

    El mejor grupo de chicos que he visto, siempre transmiten positivismo. Han llegado lejos siendo genuinos. Siempre siendo ellos. No necesitaron una label grande en base de talento han llegado lejos.

    It contains some tracks from their previous work, which sets up the mood for the new songs, starting with the gloomy first notes of Shadow.

    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.
