    Simply a magnificent anthology, it brings together the biggest hits of the last 9 years of the group. Right in the first song "Born Singer" shows the importance of this album, and that yes they were born to be singers. The choice of each track on the album has a special value for members and fans alike.

    o melhor álbum antológico que já escutei na vida por conta da diversidade de melodias, letras, combinações de notas e entre outros fatores. O BTS tem uma discografia incrível e muito diversificada, por esse motivo acredito que esse álbum tenha ficado tão bom.

    BTS anthology album title track is how they wrap up their Chapter 1 (9years), the used to be underdog artist just run and run to deliver their message/lyric despite all the mock and hate...their music genre is so vast that it goes from hiphop/rap, pop, rock, R&B, disco, ballad, EDM. No wonder they are still one of the many artist that sell out albums during this digital era.

    As três novas faixas são de tirar o fôlego. A rap line, como sempre, entregou versos com significados profundos e flow impecável. As vozes da vocal line em For Youth e Yet to Come são doces, angelicais, enquanto em Run BTS são agudas e marcantes. Como sempre o BTS acertou em cheio. Uma pena o terceiro CD não estar disponível no spotify porque todos deveriam escutar aquelas obras de arte!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Takes long-time fans a trip down memory lane with title tracks from each era and choice hits. Proof also showcases the variety of BTS discography when it comes to genre; there is something for everyone, something fresh every time. It's clear that there was a lot of thought of which songs to add into the album because there are so much great songs to choose from but here we can see the songs that BTS feels represent them the most. Yet To Come is the perfect title track to tie it together, with them recalling the journey and taking our hands as we walk forward and discover what lies ahead and see the most beautiful moment that is yet to come. The new B-sides, Run BTS and For Youth, are for a whole other spiel as they are both simply amazing in their own ways. An added bonus, for those who had purchased the physical copy, would be the demos which are very interesting to hear and know about. Such a great album that I could recommend for veteran ARMYs to casual listeners alike! Expand

    As an anthology album it gets the job done but the songs choices are questionable, apart from disk 1 which is the singles and makes sense, I'm disappointed with the choices for disk 2 as it only contains the members' most recent solo songs, I don't know as an anthology album it was a great moment to introduce newer fans to their vast discography it doesn't make sense to include only songsAs an anthology album it gets the job done but the songs choices are questionable, apart from disk 1 which is the singles and makes sense, I'm disappointed with the choices for disk 2 as it only contains the members' most recent solo songs, I don't know as an anthology album it was a great moment to introduce newer fans to their vast discography it doesn't make sense to include only songs that were released after 2020. Disk 3 being full of demos is okay I guess, but not releasing the previously unreleased songs to streaming platforms made me feel like it was the catch to buy the album.

    The three new songs are good. Run BTS is the one that shines the most among the three, and I must say that Yet To Come gets eclipsed by the other two songs despite being the title song.
    For Youth is a bittersweet song and a really good farewell gift for the fans.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Let's be honest, this was one of the best decisions that BTS has ever made to release an anthology album after 2 years with no album. And the reason why I say it's great is that over the time, especially after the Dynamite era, BTS fandom has grown so much and since BTS have been releasing English singles (which was a MOMENT) that just made people go "I miss their old songs :( blah blah blah" so this is a great opportunity for the people who miss their "OLD SONGS" to stream them cause they're in their new album, so they SHOULD STREAM THOSE OLD SONGS to all their heart's content :). And also it's good for their new fans who couldn't be bothered listening to their previous discography, now they can listen to their old discography from their new album AS THEY SHOULD :). On their new album, they have three new tracks which are 'Yet To Come', 'Run BTS' and also 'For Youth'. They also include their old songs, including their title tracks (CD 1), their tracks of choice which are one solo song and one unit song (CD 2), and also some of their demos, two unreleased songs, one unit song from August D mixtape which is Tony Montana ft. Jimin, and Still With You Acapella which is jungkook's solo song from 2020 Festa (only available on CD 3). Their title track for this album is Yet To Come which got me crying for 2 days straight because, I don't know about you, but I've been an ARMY for 7 years now and watching Yet To Come MV makes me feel like we grew up together because that MV contain their memories from their old MV's or clips and it warms my heart knowing that this MV is not just about remembering the good old days but also reassuring us that this is not the end and they're just going to move on to another chapter because their first chapter is already ended. And for me, the person who wanted to support them forever, I needed that reassurance. And their second new track was Run BTS, which is my favorite track so far, is full of the lyrics that some people think are cocky and cringe. Well, I'm here to tell them that they're wrong because, the lyrics on this particular track I think were immaculate because they're just basically saying , "hey, we're still together after 10 years and we're not going anywhere, we have good teams, we got good music, we still carrying the music industry, and will always be". If that sounds cocky to you well I don't know, but to me, that sounds like proud. Some of the lyrics also mention their hardship before their debut and the early years after they debuted. They also emphasize that the reason why they have the success and why they still going until now is because they keep running and just run, no matter what comes after or before them. One of my favorite lyrics is tae's part which is 'if we live fast, let us die young' cuz I think it was such a powerful sentence, I mean if you call that cocky then...idk. The third track which is For Youth probably one of the most emotional tracks so far because, at the beginning of the song they include a snippet of BTS and ARMY singing Epilogue: Young Forever together, and when the song started, I was bawling because get this, I don't know about other fandom or idols, but BTS and their fans have this very strong connection with each other because they trust and love each other so much that I felt like they were in " I love you" " no, I love you more" "no, I love you more" type of relationship (which is goals btw) and this song just pretty much expressed what they felt towards their fans and one of the lyrics from the first verse was "Whеn I just looked back
    After many seasons
    You always hеre with us together
    And every second was forever, oh" and if those lyrics alone don't scream love, then I don't know what is. It was basically like a love letter towards their members and ARMY, which I think explains why that song was very emotional. And they ended the song with "I'll be with you
    For the rest of my life" Yeah, I almost fell on the floor crying after that. I could go on for hours explaining the whole album and the tracks one by one but I'm just going to end it here and STREAM PROOF BY BTS FOR CLEAR SKIN because this album is very special to them as well as for us and tomorrow is their 10th anniversary, so that makes this album way more special because it was released 3 days before their anniversary. And for those of you who are looking for new music, new flavor, please make sure to check out Proof by BTS and you will not regret a single thing because the whole album is A WHOLE BUFFET of different flavors.

    A great album that closes a chapter in their carreer and opens a lot of possibilities for the future. It's amazing to listen it from beginning to the end and see how much they've grown these past 9 years, I'm really curious to see where they're gonna go after this.

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.

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.

    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.
