    This anthology album are very special and meaningful to BTS and ARMY. The concept photo and all the tracklist top tier. BTS work really hard on making this album and they deserve a huge achievement for this album. I'm so glad that i pre-order this album and it's really turned out really good.

    Proof has blown me away. Not only does it include highlights of BTS career spanning the last 9 years, but also includes new songs and demos. The new songs, “Yet to Come,” “For Youth, and “Run BTS,” plus a re-release of “Born Singers” are all amazing. I can’t decide which I like best!

It shows raw songs of teenage guys with big dreams (example: No More Dream, N.O., Born Singer) and layered structures of men who got to achieve those dreams with their hard work (example: Yet To Come). Digital albums offer two hours of music and it is advised to listen to them in the order that is listed as group always pays attention to this detail.

    CD 1 is a set of pieces that are important to the BTS as their major steps in their history. This part tells a story of the septet as a whole. For example there is I Need U that scored them their first award in domestic music programs. Then on CD 2 each member got a chance to choose two songs. Their pick is always on the point. We can see their individual grow in the band.
    Completed with CD 3 that is full of demo tracks and drafts from their past, it is a great gift, a 9-10 years worth of systematic production. For Youth being a gift for their fans ARMY (title is a nudge towards the fans, because the name is an abbreviation of Adorable Representative MC >for Youth    … Expand

The lead single Yet To Come - the lyrics reflect that their past was a best moment but the their beautiful moment is yet to come. Talking about the MV - the MV shows the key part of their previous MVs which so heartwarming. The song Run BTS is literally just a whole bop, the lyrics, the melody and the genre is just amazing. Lastly, is the For Youth - a song for army, it made me so much emotional it's so sweet and beautiful song. I love my best friends so much. 10/10 for this album!… Expand

    From the very first hip-hop-inspired debut track No More Dream, a rebellious cry for a South Korean youth drowning in expectations, to the album BE exploring the emotional rollercoaster we've all lived through during the covid years, Bangtan Sonyeondan (or BTS) has always sought to write truth to power, to society, to their fans and to themselves. The monumental release of their aptlyFrom the very first hip-hop-inspired debut track No More Dream, a rebellious cry for a South Korean youth drowning in expectations, to the album BE exploring the emotional rollercoaster we've all lived through during the covid years, Bangtan Sonyeondan (or BTS) has always sought to write truth to power, to society, to their fans and to themselves. The monumental release of their aptly named anthology Proof is a milestone few musicians reach and the oldest member has yet to reach the age of 30.
    The 3 CDs each have a distinct purpose: CD1 is a chronological order of their lead singles, CD2 contains 1 subunit song and 1 solo song chosen by each member and CD3, only available with a physical copy as an exclusive gift to their enormous fan base ARMY, is an intimate collection of unreleased tracks and demos. Each CD has a new official track and CD1 starts out with Born Singer, a 2013 rewritten version of J. Cole's Born Sinner previously only available on SoundCloud. All in all, Proof contains 48 vastly different tracks covering topics from social injustice, mental health, friendships, youth rebellion, self-individuation and an ever-present devotion towards their diverse and equally devoted ARMY, a fanbase almost as famous as the band itself.
    If you have only heard their English Language smash hits Dynamite and Butter, you are in for a surprise. BTS are masters of hybrid music; blessed with spectacular vocals from V, Jimin, Jungkook and Jin covering both intense, deep notes and crystal clear, airy falsettos and arguably some of the best rappers Asia has to offer in RM, SUGA and JHope, BTS can literally do any genre. But what Proof demonstrates is that not only do the group play with whichever genre they want, they also do it exceedingly well. If disco-inspired Dynamite and funky Butter made you want to move, you’ll definitely be well exercised after jumping around to electronica/hip-hop-track Fire or IDOL, a dance track celebrating South African music and Korean traditional instruments. You can sway to moombahton/trap-song Blood, Sweat & Tears or neo-soul-inspired Singularity, and finally turn introspective with the epic pop rock ballad Spring Day, a song that has not left the South Korean hit list since its release in 2016.
    The real gems, however, are for those ready to explore the often exquisite lyrics penned mostly by the band members themselves. RM, their most prolific writer closely followed by SUGA and JHope, is a master of metaphors, clever wordplay and quirky observations as observed in his solo Intro:Persona and the charming little pop-tune Dimple. While the language barrier may fool lazy people into believing that their music is inaccessible, there are plenty high quality fan translations available and the cultural insights they provide along the lyrics are quite enlightening.
    For old fans the new songs are naturally of particular interest. The lead single Yet to Come is that signature blend of pop and hip-hop which is BTS’s trademark, an introspective ode to the 9 years now in the past and a promise of even better things to come. Run BTS is an absolute A++ track, reminiscent of the aggressive, cocky rap of especially BTS’s early years and you are almost guaranteed to see that evolve into a viral dance challenge on TikTok. If you do nothing else, at least do yourselves the favor of playing it at least once. The final new official track For Youth closes CD3 as a pure love song to their fans and while the receiver of the message is quite clear, you’d have to have a heart of stone if you don’t feel just a little moved.
    To make a summary that truly encapsulates what Proof contains is not possible. If you take nothing else away from this review, it should be this: Do not make the mistake of labelling BTS. This is a group that has converted heavy metal fans, classical musicians, scholars, journalists, authors, politicians, business professionals, young and old, men and women into dedicated fans. For eclectic music lovers like myself, every part of their discography has something to offer, either musically, lyrically or both. Do yourself the favor of giving Proof a chance – you just might find a new world waiting.    … Expand

    BTS and Bighit Music did an amazing job. This applies to every aspect of the anthology album. This is how a ending of the "1st Chapter" should look like.

Selling 2.1 million copies on the albums first day on Hanteo, BTS proofs that they don't need many versions like other K-acts to sell well, not to mention that they don't use bundles like many western artists. This album already broke a few records and will surely do well on the year-end charts. It makes you want to hear what BTS has in store for us in the future. I'm looking foward to what they've got. In the meantime, I will continue to listen to this masterpiece of art.… Expand

    Proof is a brilliant showcase of BTS' musical growth and journey. They included their never before heard songs and demos which provides fans a glimpse on the early processes in their song creation. The 3 new songs are so good and are a fitting tribute to the journey that BTS and ARMY ran for theast 9 years. This is also a good way of introducing new fans to their extensive discography.

    The songs in the PROOF album are astronomically amazing. The vocals are enticingly addictive, the melodies are enchanting, the rap is like a 5 star Michelin and the title track ‘Yet To Come’ is absolutely beautiful and makes me feel emotional. The demos are lovely and the three new songs are awesome. The concept photos were very cute and cool.

The lyrics and mv are so beautiful and meaningful for Army. It's the perfect song to wrap their first chapter. And then For Youth. Have you ever feel so loved by artist that you love? This is the first time I experience this. For Youth is the best gift one could give me, and BTS did that. So beautiful, still tearing up everytime I listen to it. Awesome vocals, one of the best Bangtan songs for me. And then Run BTS. Wow. Sexy, groovy, and rocking your soul lol It gives you the sexy feeling like you're on top of the world. Love it! All three songs make me proud of them. They still have 2 more new songs, and demo version of their previous songs, which is so eandearing to listen to. Epiphany Jin version still gives you the goosebumps because of his still beautiful soul. Tony Montana is finally here. And Still With You acapella? Man, that will surely blow your mind. Jungkook's beautiful, raw voice. Demos, and the other 2 songs, will be available on cd only. Remind us ARMY that they set this up so much as a special gift for us. So proud of them for this album. One of my best buy.

When you listen to Proof album, you can tell this by yourself. You just have to enjoy BTS music without biasness.
    BTS music was something I didn't think I needed until I heard it. There's a line in Army fanbase "BTS comes in to your life, when you need them." It means that there's no right time of stanning BTS or listening to their music, when you found BTS it means you needed them.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The album is absolutely amazing! It proves why BTS have dominated the scene over the years and why they will continue to do so!
    The anthology album collects some of BTS’ greatest hits (and three brand new tracks) from the past 9 years and is a way to introduce people to who BTS exactly are. Kicking off the album with “Born Singer”, a rendition of their older cover of J Cole’s “Born Sinner”, to showcase their passion for their work and their respect for hip hop music. “Born Singer” is a beautiful combination of the distinct vocals of BTS with their iconic rap.
    The title track of the album, “Yet To Come”, is a nod to their earlier works and the embodiment of this anthology album. Soft vocals and slow raps blend in with each other flawlessly in this song and manage to convey the emotions behind this homage to their artistry.
    Their second new track, “Run BTS”, is an homage to the members themselves and the hard work they put into their career. The song is very catchy and energetic. The vocals flow very well with the rap and the members ride off each other very well. The way Jin and Jimin manage to hit the high notes was very pleasing to the ears. V’s distinctly deep vocals were a very nice contrast to the high notes and Jung Kook’s vocal control is truly unmatched.
    The last new track on the album, “For Youth”, is a song dedicated to their fans. It’s a very beautiful song with soft vocals and emotional lyrics. The song also samples their fans, the ARMY, singing the song “Young Forever” by BTS during their concert in Wembley Stadium in 2019, which was a surprise for the members. As a way, this little surprise from ARMY to BTS became a little surprise from BTS to ARMY and is a symbol for the mutual love and respect they have towards each other.
    All in all, this album is filled with BTS’ past bangers with the addition of three completely new songs that showcase BTS’ talent and their love for their artistry and their fans.    … Expand

    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.
