    It’s a wonderful collection of the vast music discography of BTS, from the past to the present with the introduction of the new musics. To their fans it’s like visit all the 9 years of history of the group, and to the new listeners it’s a great way to discover why they became one of the biggest groups of all time.

    For someone who is just recently getting into BTS and may only be familiar with their English songs, this anthology is the perfect introduction as it neatly gives an overview, or a summary, to the Korean group's career. It shows the versatility and the growth of the 7 members as musicians and as people.

    Proof is the first anthology album from BTS. It contains their strongest and among others some of their most personal songs. With the title track "Yet to Come" we are taken back to their past and how it relates to the present and future. In the last nine years BTS have made the impossible possible and this album contains everything they needed to make it happen.

    This album is a wonderful anthology for fans old and new alike. There are the hits but also 3 new songs which are all exceptional. They have also included demo versions of songs which are sometimes surprising and offer a glimpse into the writing process. This is a love letter for Army and for casual listeners or the curious an amazing way to discover the legends that are BTS.

This Proof album is the fruit of their labor of the past 9 long years, and it is filled with music of a variety of genres which the members of the group themselves have participated in writing, producing, and composing. BTS' music's' lyrics contain themes that do not always revolve around heartbreak and romance. Instead, they speak of social injustice, self-love, friendship, and so much more. BTS have always been known as artists who make music for healing, and this album can attest to that. They deserve every ounce of praise they get, and I invite everyone here to give their music a listen without any prejudice.… Expand

    The anthology is well-executed. It portrays the best of the best of bts’ discography while also showing their progression from debut to present day.

    Best way to make an anthology album. A look back on the hits that made them and the reason they were loved. Also a big thank you with love for the fans who have loved them thru the years. The new songs Yet To Come, Run BTS and For Youth show all those plus how much this 7 men for South Korea have grown in their music as well as a team. music

Esse álbum é uma viagem no tempo contando a sua história e nos da uma noção de como eles se tornaram esse sucesso mundial que são agora. É uma homenagem aos próprios membros do grupo e sua equipe, por seu trabalho duro, e também claramente uma homenagem aos fãs de longa data (que com certeza pegaram todas as referências!!).

    Mesmo pra quem vem de fora e não pegou a trajetória completa do grupo, como eu, continua um album delicioso de se ouvir. Foi o primeiro álbum de música que comprei e estou mais do que satisfeita. Ele é poderoso, divertido, emocional e relaxante, tudo no mesmo. BTS merece todo esse prestígio que estão tendo, são figurinhas raras hoje em dia. Desejo que as pessoas abram mãos de seus preconceitos e deem uma chance pra ouvir o trabalho deles, a música supera qualquer barreira.

    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.
