    There's 19 Amazing song in This Album and There's 1 Bonus Track with SIA in Spotify. Every Song have Story like We are the Bulletproof : Eternal who Tell BTS Story about their career journey from Beginning Until Now where they can prove the hate speech given to them

They already spoiler it on their video. Here is the link : https://youtu.be/npfs6afvIhk . Mixed with marching-band and hip-hop beat tracks. The lyrics were so encouraging. It encouraged the listeners to keep walking because we are figthers and no one can hold we down.… Expand

    Woah! All songs on this album are really good! Their vocal and rap is amazing. And the tittle track "ON" is soooo good. One of my favorite songs on this album is "Moon". This song is about their love to their fans called "ARMY". I really love the lyrics, its beautiful. And i think BTS really deserve more achievement from this album.

    The album is so amazing, they makes the album full with the big ideas, enguarded emotion and strong conviction. Their album is also fantastic summary of BTS and charts a path forward in a tumultuous but exiting new era for Korean Pop
    This album is an imprenssive, exiting and moving album with slick production, accoumpanied by thought provoking art, cant wait ti see next album

    This is an album full of really good and interesting songs. Like the title of the album, Map of the soul, this album contains songs that can lead us to who we really are. The songs can also make a healer when we are tired from daily activities.

    With this album, I can love myself more, believe in myself, and better at treating myself. All this music BTS, especially Map of the Soul: 7, has deeply affected my life, healing, comforting, and also as a reminder. In these difficult times, i hope many songs can be like BTS. It may seem to the average person, but this played an important role for me, and it meant something.

    as a fan, i like the album more than previous one. mainly because i feel the lyrics very nostalgic and sentimental. All of the song reflect their time, hardworks, youth, pains and issues perfectly.

    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.
