Born Singer has always had a special place for us, as the septet had put it out years ago on sound cloud and given us a few live performances. It's wonderful to finally be able to listen to it along with all of their album drops. Expand

    'Proof' by BTS is a beautifully crafted anthology album that includes some of BTS' best songs of all time.

With 3 new songs, a remastered song from their rookie days that is finally officially released and 44 more tracks, the album is arguably one of the best albums in BTS' discography. The songs are a beautiful reminder of BTS' journey over a span of 9 years and released only a few days before their 9th debut anniversary makes it even more significant. It is a beautiful way of closing chapter 1 of their musical journey to move on to the next chapter of their music career. In short, this album is a beautiful reminder of who BTS are and where they came from, their growth over the years to become one of the biggest musical acts in the world currently, and a sure-shot assurance that their journey hasn't concluded yet and there's more amazing things that are Yet To Come. All in all, it's an album that will be hard-to-forget for both ARMYs and music fans who genuinely appreciate their artistry. In my personal opinion, it's one of the best albums I have ever listened to and I absolutely don't regret purchasing it. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Absolutely adored this album, it took me on such a special journey down memory lane! I love how not a single one of the tracks sound the same, they're all so unique and each demonstrates such a different aspect of BTS' incredible talent and artistry. Personal standout for me was Run BTS; the electric guitar, the raps, the vocals...it was AMAZING and definitely proved the range and versatility that BTS has. It's such a hype anthem and in my opinion, song of the year. Of course, I also absolutely adored Yet to Come and For Youth as well, they're such beautiful songs and I haven't stopped crying to them!! The way they encapsulate BTS' love for ARMY as well as their love for music, reassuring us that 'their moment is still yet to come,' makes these songs such a perfect ending to chapter one of their musical story (and makes me so excited for chapter two). Everything about this album encapsulates who BTS is at their core... and if you haven't listened I absolutely recommend that you do! Expand

First CD includes their past title tracks and explains how Korean band became the global phenomenon. Listeners can travel in time from their past to present from Born Singer to Yet To Come which are both excellent choices to start and finish the first CD pointing out BTS' past and future vision. Born Singer which uses J Cole's iconic Born Sinner song as sample brings soothing vocals and brilliant rap together confronts audience with members' concerns on their future, while Yet To Come focuses on a hopeful message for their future. Yet To Come which is the title song of the album definitely deserves its title role which show case members' versatility in singing and rapping, smoothly giving out the hopeful message for their future. CD 2 includes Run BTS which is already one of fans' favorite and also members' own choices (one solo and one unit song for each member). Members also explained why they choose these certain songs in short videos which again shows that they are top tier musician and have clear visions on their art. CD 3 includes unreleased songs and demos which can only be heard in physical CD as well as new fan son For Youth. For Youth uses instrumentals so well that you can almost feel yourself at a BTS concert enjoying the talent of the members. BTS cleverly uses the power of physical only releases to communicate with their fans, sharing their most vulnerable moments. Overall, I recommend this album to everyone, thinking that anyone can find something they'll enjoy. I conclude with saying BTS' best is yet to come. Expand

BTS’ discography feels like it should belong to a band at least 20yrs more experienced than they are. The breadth of genres, production innovation and lyrical subject matter make this album a must for any newbie looking to experience what wonders BTS has to offer. While created for the hardcore ARMY as thanks and a full-stop to their beginning chapter, Proof may well bring more recruits to the BTS cause than ever before.

    Listen to the songs in order to really grasp the evolution of BTS’ music and why they are the phenom we see today; the biggest global group and the first of their kind.

    BTS’ individual style, opinionated lyrics and non-conformist attitude originally caused struggle in their early years, especially in some parts of conservative South Korea - which you can hear the journey of in the repertoire - but ironically is the absolute foundation of their musicality and the reason for their rock-solid Korean & International fan base. In this case, not reading the translated lyrics is a crime because, unlike with a lot of their contemporaries, that’s the soul of the music.

    The new tracks included on the album, harken back to their earlier work, where hip-hop was their teacher.

    ‘Yet To Come’ is a dreamy, mid-tempo hip-hop lead single expressing the band’s thankfulness for their success, particularly to their stalwart fans and the desire to fly even higher. Along with their traditional insistence that they measure their success by other means than industry metrics. The music video is possibly unfathomable to unfamiliar listeners, as it Easter eggs it’s way through 10yrs of their career and music videos.

    Run BTS is already the firm fan favourite. A filthy, hard-driving guitar rhythm with soaring vocals and growled bridges, the rappers also really get to show their versatility. With the name hearkening back not only to BTS’ own unique variety show, but also expressing their ‘bulletproof’ successful personas: A full-circle moment as their Korean name ‘Bangtan Sonyeondan’ (Bulletproof Boyscouts) was originally often derided and the band felt somewhat uncomfortable with it.

    For Youth is simply a heart-rending love letter for their inimitable fan base, ARMY, who also feature in the opening of the track as recorded from concerts. Lyrically it could be mistaken as a traditional love song for a romantic interest. However, the lyrics are packed with meaning for ARMY;
    “You’re the best friend for the rest of my life” opines Jungkook, a phrase he and the rest of the band have previously referenced.
    “When I look back after many seasons, you always here with us together, and every second was forever” say Jin and Jimin.

    The lead of CD One, while a tear-jerking fan-favourite, also almost counts as a new song; Born Singer; a re-imagining of J.Cole’s Born Sinner. Previously re-written and sung at live events in the very early days of BTS’ career, they didn’t have the pull to gain copyright and release it. These days? The original producers eagerly came onboard to kick-off the anthology.

    CD Three is not available to stream, only as physical copy. A treasure trove of previously unreleased demos and stage collabs, this is a music nerds dream cache. Trusting their unrefined, unreleased work to fans as a gift, it’s the easiest way to appreciate these young men’s raw talent and sheer joy in the musical process, in it’s purest form.

    Even if you’ve decided beyond doubt that you refuse to be a BTS fan, I challenge anyone to listen to all tracks and not find something that resonates. Versatility has been the name of the game for a decade and they won’t let you forget it.

    For their fans however, it’s simply a gift; wrapping up a years of treasured musical memories and mutual love. And promising at least a decade more.

    ‘Proof’ stands on it’s own, without the need for over-zealous promotion and the usual tricks from record companies. As the saying goes, the ‘Proof’ really is in the pudding.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I joined ARMY early this year after hearing Butter on the radio all the time at work last summer. It calmed me down and cheered me up instantly each time I heard it, since I was extremely stressed at that time in my life. I got very curious after finding out it was a song by BTS and wanted to look into their other works- never in my life have I clicked with an artist and their entire discography this fast. And this album is simply amazing! It is all of their important songs- each era of their career marked with the song/s coming from it. Plus the new tracks are simply incredible! The title track Yet To Come is a nostalgic trip down memory lane- beautiful from beat to singing! It really sounds like a promise from BTS that the best moment is yet to come. The track For Youth feels like a love letter to ARMY. The members really gave it their all making this song it is so beautifully written it makes you happy and sad and a bit nostalgic- like talking to an old friend. It is emotional and nostalgic to listen to the songs in chronological order, it makes you relive their history with them all over again. I am currently waiting for my copy of the album which I preordered. I am from Bulgaria so it is expected to arrive until the 19th! I can not wait to have it and play it, honestly- an anthology album is nothing shorter than perfect for BTS at this point in their career and especially since they gained even more fans after the release of Dynamite, Butter and Permission To Dance. This album truly is a guide to their history and achievements for newl ARMYs and a nostalgic, beautiful and emotional trip down memory lane with long-time ARMYs. Even though I am new- this album makes me feel like I have been here from the start!!!! I love them and their music with all of my heart! Expand

    The title track of the album YET TO COME has a powerful lyricism. From the lyrics we get to know the artist thought about their success so far and how they believed they haven't changed at all and they are still the same people that fell in love with music all those years ago. It also reassured fans that even though they have had a beautiful journey the past years, the beast moment is YET TO COME.

    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.

    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.

    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.
