    Proof which is an anthology album released by the biggest boy band in the world in 2022 is an album that celebrates their success as a band for 9 years. It contains 3 CDs and 6 new songs the title track of which is 'Yet to come' that in my opinion deserves every award there is!!!

    This Anthology, though especially put together for their fans to reminisce 9 years of a very prolific career, is also appealing to the general public, as it lets them sample all the genres inside BTS's music.
    From ballads, to Hip-Hop, to rap, to Pop tunes, blues and even EDM, Bangtan's (BTS) artistry and versatility stands out throughout all the 3 CDs.

    If there was an album I'd recommend the non-initiated to buy, this would be it. If you listen to the music first, then go to doolset lyrics for translations (https://doolsetbangtan.wordpress.com/) you can't help but acknowledge they're good writers too, with puns & smart rhymes.
    I've been listening to music for 40 years, all styles from heavy to rock to pop to classical. I have to say, the quality of this band is undeniable.
    For those concerned with sound, ATMOS has been used to enhance the quality.
    It's a 10 out of 10 for me.    … Expand

    This album is great for the casual listener who wants to finally take the plunge into becoming ARMY. It perfectly illustrates their growth from beginning to end, and shows how vast their talent is. Owning and bending all genres from day 1, you won't find any skips on Proof.

    Truly a great album for any person to listen to, fan or not, that encapsulates BTS’ career and musical spectrum. Hit after hit with three new absolute banging tracks as well as a remastered song. The demos, unfortunately not on streaming platforms, also show their creativity and how much they have fun with the process of making music. Great stuff!

    A beautiful anthology perfectly encapsulating their near 10 year back catalogue.
    Plus 3 new songs Yet to Come, Run BTS and For Youth.
    Run BTS was the stand out of the new tracks for me of the 3,it's a bop.
    CD 3 not being available on streaming services is a crime. Epiphany Jin's demo was my personal fav.
    If your new it's a perfect jumping on point with a good slice of their music.

The title track Yet to Come has nostalgic vibes, which is like reading their diary and their thoughts about what they feel with how far they have come. One of their 2013 songs Born Singer has been re-released and was a perfect start of their anthology, which described their dreams, aspirations and the obstacles they faced at the beginning of their career. Run BTS, the hip-hop track, describes how they are each other's support in their journey and how they worked hard together to reach where they are. The final new song of the ANTHOLOGY For Youth is a heartfelt letter to the fans, and how they are each other's best friend. Divided into 3 CDs, CD1 represents BTS as a group, CD2 represents individuality of each member, describing their own distinct personalities and CD3 is specialised for fans, which contains demos and 2 unreleased older tracks. CD3 is like the torn pages of a diary no one was supposed to read. It displays their raw works and is exclusively for fans, available only on CD and not on digital streaming platforms. The rest of the album has 31 older songs, each a timeless hit.

    To conclude, this has to be one of their most personal works ever, standing side by side with BE, and retraces their journey from their debut until now, reminiscing all the ups and downs of their career. This is an album which will be cherished by fans for a long time, because of the message they wanted to convey with their album.    … Expand

It shows their growth and their undeniable talent and seriousness about their chosen career. Their respect to their craft and their peers can be seen here. Yet To Come tags my heart the way they walk memory lane through their music video. The meaningful nuances of every scenes amd every sounds you hear on the music video can only be understood by their avid listeners while the basic meaning can inspire a casual listener.
    Run BTS is the HYPE SONG that talks about their journey sinceroolies days to their success years!!! The humble beginnings of sevwn mates that was alien to the city of Seoul brave the giant industry of korean music. Like we all joke about, BTS had 5$ and BIG DREAMS!! What back them up was their unwavering love for their music and looking back to those who support all the time. Their music talks about society and it’s unfairness. Many relates to their music and many is inspired to their journey as musicians. This is their PROOF of their chapter1. Looking forward to more.    … Expand

    Proof tells the story of BTS over the last nine years of their career. It describes their journey through three CDs -1:describing their career arc as a band,2: showcasing the members' individual talents in their team, and 3 : giving an intimate look into songs before they were released or finalized.

It takes great courage to be able to share things such as the demos to the whole world to see. I believe BTS has crafted this album exceptionally well , to give casual listeners a look into why they are the biggest musical act in the world, and for ARMY it is a gift to reminisce treasured memories or to understand their journey so far,if you just found them recently. With this album, they close the first chapter of their career and look ahead at a bright , shining future which brims with amazing possibilities.… Expand

    This anthology album really draws the attention to BTS' amazing discography and how their music from their debut until today stayed uncomperable. From music to lyrics, every song is unique experience that deserves its own appreciation. 3 new tracks are the great addition to already amazing discography. quite literally changed my life.

    kpoppies, leaving negative reviews won't make your groups more talented or successful. BTS still the standard, and your faves wish they had every ounce of bts success, but that will never happen :)

    now back to Proof, a great anthology album that shows BTS incredible discography since their debut 9 years ago. The 4 new songs (3 + Born Singer) are the perfect addition for this album.

    'Proof' has a lot of their hits in it, 3 new songs (Yet To Come, Run BTS, For Youth), and then CD3 which contains personal demos (that you can only listen to if you buy the album, because they were released for their fans 'army' -> for nobody else) lets u really explore BTS's process of creating music, describes their career path perfectly is such a perfect way to close their chapter 1 and to start a new chapter! Proof is truly a beautiful album! Can't wait for more.

    ((((also I don't know why miserable haters are trying to spam the reviews because it won't do anything to BTS's succes, they still thriving and breaking records so move. It's rather pathetic. It really shows everybody is always tuning in, haters and fans. The impact BTS have is insanely huge.)))    … Expand

I’m a casual listener who discovered BTS via the Grammy performance of Butter (included in this album as well) only to discover how hard they have been working as musicians. Run BTS has to honestly be my favorite song. Their vocal performance with the electronic guitar rift 10/10. Finally the song For Youth and Yet To Come is dedicated to their fans, it’s such an intimate moment of love and devotion. I would recommend this album to all. This misconception that they are just “kpop boy band” is misinformation. Give it a listen judgement free, they are sassy and charismatic exactly what the music industry has been missing for sometime now in the the US.… Expand

    This anthology album named Proof has the best way to summarize all up and down that happen in BTS’s 9 years career. This album includes their best hits, solo and unit tracks, also their hidden gem -demo and unreleased songs. What a best way to conclude the first chapter of their musical career and ready to open their second chapter with brand new possibilities.

    Proof serves as a nostalgia trip for long-time fans of the septet and a summary introduction for the curious. With thirty old songs, three completely new tracks, and eleven new versions of well-loved classics, this album marks a satisfying closure to their first nine years as a group.

    For fans who were sucked in during the time of “Dynamite” or “Butter” and haven’t dug into their back catalogue just yet, they might be surprised to discover just how broad of a range these songs can stretch. ... Disc 3 is a whole different kind of time capsule: there are 11 unreleased demos, two brand new tracks (“Quotation Mark” and “For Youth”), and one previously-shelved track (“Young Love”) that peel back the curtain on BTS as artists like never before.
