    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Love this album so much. All the songs are great. Inner child is my favorite, I just relate to this song a lot. The way they speak to us through their lyrics. Sharing us their struggles and telling us it's okay not to be perfect. I hope they continue to achieve everything they desire through their love and passion for music and win more hearts and love in return. BTS FIGHTING!!! Expand

    diferentes estilos, fuertes vocales y raps. simplemente magnífico.
    filtre es mi canción favorita, un ritmo latino y sexy, la voz puesta encaja muy bien. uh es una canción agresiva con un gran bear y ritmo, realmente bueno. el álbum en si esta muy bien confeccionado y es uno del cual me podría sentir orgulloso

    Falls flat on melodies and has too many cheesy lyrics. Some songs feel disjointed. It would be a stronger album if a few of the songs in the second half were left on the chopping block.

    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!

    One of the most powerful and sensitive album they have ever made. They explore the soul in so many parts. It is so well worked, from the rhythm, the lyrics, best of all, the album represents many emotions.

    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.

    The whole aura of the album is pretentious. They're theme is also the same. they keep taking about the same topics in their music. And the godawful autotune..YIKES. the cultural impact of this album is because of well planned marketing strategies and the frenzy of teenage fans. The music itself is not worth it. like One Direction, celebrated, but soon forgotten

    As faixas impecaveis, letras perfeitas, conceito muito bom POREM o fato da empresa ter pego dois albuns e transformado em um me faz achar ele um pouco bagunçado e incoeso em alguns pontos. Fora que acho a apelação emocional que ele traz exagerada, mas nada disso diminui o fato de que as musicas em si são impecáveis,

Like its excellent predecessors, this new offering is meticulously crafted - the melodies are strong, the beats are pounding, and the production quality is flawless; simply put, they once again make pop perfection look easy and have made what will be seen as a landmark, history-making album. The album’s breadth, and its effortless blend of R&B, rap, and dance confidently rival the works of previous golden ages of pop. At a sprawling 20 tracks, the album contains some truly uplifting, emotional, and epic moments - the masterpieces “Friends” and “Outro” produce chills when you hear the assembly of voices come in. This is Blockbuster pop on a whole new level - a level of musical expertise you don’t see anymore. As an entire package it’s possibly the most important pop record since Taylor Swift’s 1989. Expand

    Quite a challenge for a predominantly non-english album to garner the international acclaim it has, but the catchy beat and constant reinvention of the group's sound, introduction of varied influences in the musical elements and the soul-baring lyrics is enough to catch the attention of acurious and dare I say, doubtful Thomas and Jane out there. Its safe to say, I am a new fan.

    The two parts of the album are complementary, building a solid work. The lyrics are sensitive, leading the project to flow delicatelly. It shows the magnificience of this band as the greatest teen pop act currently.
    An addendum: I felt that Namjoon looks a little dejected, unlike his typical attitude-filled behavior.

    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.
