    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.

    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.

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 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.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This anthology albums compiles not only BTS title songs and greatest hits that has paved a way for them to become global superstars, but allows fans (ARMYs) to reminisce 9 years of their musical journey. Proof's title track "Yet To Come" looks back on BTS musical career and declare that they're just 7 artists who love creating music. The album is broken into three separate CDs each showing a different aspects over their artistic trajectory. The first CD arranges all BTS titles tracks (with the inclusion of an official release of "Born Singer" which was originally just on SoundCloud) throughout their 9 years together showcasing a wide variety of genres. While the second CD are various songs handpicked by the members that spoke to them and their individuality. Lastly the third CD (which is not currently on any streaming platforms) is amassed from demos, unreleased works and the last song "For Youth" which begins with an insert from their fans singing along to "Young Forever" (a song that has become quintessentially meaningful to both artist and fans). Overall the album beautifully captures the last 9 years and closes the first chapter of BTS artistry with their best yet to come.… Expand

Proof is an album that embraces ARMY who come from every possible moment of BTS career. Every single choice of song in this album from their vast discography is selected for a reason. The three new songs are true testament to BTS versatility and their incredible pen games when it comes to songwriting as well as BTS own in-house producers skills. This is one band that is not defined or confined by a specific genre to their discography. Proof is an anthology album that not only can be appreciated by BTS fans but also music lovers everywhere. Open your heart to the depth of their Korean lyrics which fans have translated to multiple languages, the unique blend of pop, ballad, alternative rock, hip hop with some traditional Korean music with many other music genres and immerse yourself into their journey as artists.

    What a beautiful anthology album spanning the 9 years of BTS incredible career! It takes us on a time travel back to the humble beginnings sharing one room to the global superstars they are today. And CD3 is such a gift from artists confident enough in their abilities to share unfinished drafts. Truly unique, and for for the mind, heart, and soul.

    Loved it. The way the group started the album with “Born Singer” announcing to the whole world what they love to do and what they were born to do, then we listen to their title tracks from their debut track “No More Dream” to the latest one released “Butter” only for them to end the first CD with “Yet To Come” where they again announce their love for music and tell their fans that theyLoved it.

    Then they start the second CD with “Run BTS” which is amazing and it shows another side of them then they make us listen to the members favorite songs of their discography ending it with a gift song for their fans “For Youth” which is so emotional considering they are sampling their own “Young Forever” which means so much to BTS and their fans It’s 10/10 this is how anthology albums should be, they took us through their 9 year old music journey with this album so beautifully.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. BTS Proof Anthology album is a gift because aside form a compilation of their title tracks and personally selected songs, it contains a LOT of gems. First, it has their unreleased (for commercial use) song, Born Singer, which was uploaded July 2013 on SoundCloud. The album also contains their demos, including the predebut demo of Jump where the lyrics called them BTB, “Bangtan Boys”, the name they used before they became BTS, Bangtan Sonyeondan. It also contains songs that did not make the cut and were never released in any platform.

    Proof contains their whole journey SO FAR, and the three new songs, title track Yet to Come, earworm Run BTS, and fan song For Youth are the overarching explainer songs for their journey and unprecedented success. While the newly released 2013 song, Born Singer, shows their reason for existence.

    Yet to Come focuses on their personal journey and highlights on what they value the most - making music, not awards or accolades. They reaffirmed that they are still the 7 boys from Korea united only by their love for music. Run BTS is a song about the HOW of their success or what brought them to such great heights and BTS only has ONE answer - passionate hard work as they ran with only their 2 legs and nothing else. At the end of the song, they even pushed their fans the RUN for themselves like BTS did.

    For Youth opens with the emotional Young Forever surprise song by ARMY at the Wembley stadium in 2019. That moment was a precious memory for BTS and ARMY. BTS was taken aback at that time and teared up. For Youth is a love song by BTS for ARMY who never left their side and BTS acknowledged that without ARMY they wouldn’t have reached the success they have. They considered the ARMY as their best friends for life. This is what BTS has always been saying to their fans as well, that they had been walking hand in hand in this journey. Born Singer was made right after they debut. It was uploaded on SoundCloud on July 2013, a month after debut. Young BTS, who had nothing but their talent and dreams, were faced with heavy criticism from the idol music world and the underground hiphop world. They were misfits. They were different. They were mocked. They were unaccepted. Born Singer contains raw lyrics about who they are as young artists and what criticisms other people throw at them. It is a very emotional song.

    I became an ARMY last year, April 2021. I stumbled upon them while watching a Korean Drama, Itaewon Class, and I was hooked by the OST. I found out it was V from BTS. I looked up all the other songs by V and BTS and I was blown away by the range of their discography and the depth of their lyrics. It took me months to listen to their predebut, spotify, and soundcloud discography. Their songs helped me process my emotions because the lyrics and delivery is superb. I remember being a new fan and streaming the concerts thru Youtube when BTS organized BangBangCon. I first heard Born Singer, which sampled JCole’s Born Sinner, performed at Red Bullet tour and it was so emotional so I looked it up on youtube to watch with lyrics. They lyrics touched me so much I cried. Now, Born Singer was released after 9 Years! Given permission by JCole and mixed by the same mixing engineer of JCole’s track Born Sinner! BTS has come full circle. Born Singer finally has a home.

    I love that this is going to be my second album purchase after Be. This is a collectible and all the four new songs, including Born Singer, are really personal to BTS. Every Baby ARMY is lucky that we have an Anthology album released because there is a higher chance we can witness old songs performed live. We can make up for the years we missed.    … Expand

    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.
