    Un par de canciones pasables pero nada más. Estos chicos perdieron su esencia hace mucho por volverse del gusto masivo wéstern y para eso renunciaron a lo que los hacía destacar. Sumado a que son él grupos menos versatil y el más mediocre si hablamos en cuestion de talento real! Solo son puro marketing!

    The songs are cool, Masterpiece. The meaning of their songs is so beautiful and so inspiring to listeners. One of them, In a song called interlude: shadow, "The moment I'm flying high as I wished, My shadows grows in that blasting stark light." This part makes me more confident and not afraid to achieve my dreams because I feel that I am not alone, there are BTS members who feel the same way like me. Even if the shadow continues to scare me, I will not be afraid.

    Thank you, BTS

    BTS continue to tell stories with their songs. The lyrics go deep into their emotions as artist. Black swan covers their fears and ON gives them the courage to keep going. MOTS 7 goes from rap to some Latin rhythm as well as from sad and anxiety to hope and happiness.

The Intro Persona and the Outro Ego are solos from two of the three rappers of the group, which are written and worked on by themselves. They perfectly set the tone of the album making us question how exactly are they going to top this in their next work. The solo tracks Filter, My Time, Inner Child and Moon from the vocal members dive into diverse genres establishing that BTS can pull off anything and everything with grace. Shadow was released earlier this year before the release of the whole album, which heightened our already high expectations. And to say that this album exceeded our expectations would be an understatement. While the aforementioned tracks from this amazing album did took our breath away, I will leave it up to you to discover and douse into the rest of the tracklist and fall in love with music all over again!

    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.
