    It's a perfect and complete album. It tells the story of the group through its 9-year musical career.

    Simplemente, me ha encantado. Creo que este album contiene la historia musical del grupo y las nuevas canciones hacen hincapié en su estilo y calidad musical. Es agradable escucharlos.

    This album is nothing special, honestly, I'm quite disappointed. It brings nothing new to the genre.

    Musically i would say it is one of the best albums ever released, depicting their journey from predebut era (born singer) to present global superstar era. It feels like it is the assimilation of every BTS sound and genres that they have created hip-hop, pop, rnb, edm, synthpop, rock, urban, emo rock, trap, funk, light trap. The lyrics are very autobiographical for the new 3 songs Yet toMusically i would say it is one of the best albums ever released, depicting their journey from predebut era (born singer) to present global superstar era. It feels like it is the assimilation of every BTS sound and genres that they have created hip-hop, pop, rnb, edm, synthpop, rock, urban, emo rock, trap, funk, light trap. The lyrics are very autobiographical for the new 3 songs Yet to come, Run BTS and For Youth. The various of emotions of uncertainty to certainty, hunger, passion , stress to show their best to really become their best and the promise of The best is yet to come. The pen game of the rap line and the vocals of the vocal line the production it is immaculate and cd2 consisting of demos and unreleased tracks it is gem . Coz you don't see artists putting so much effort anymore and u can clearly understand why BTS are BTS coz they take their craft seriously.… Expand

    All the new songs are amazing. I’m so happy that we finally got Born Singer on Spotify after 9 after its release ((: My favorite track on the album is Run BTS. It’s just too good you can’t get enough of it! Yet to Come and For Youth makes me tear up every time I listen to it :”) The whole album is 10 out of 10. They released a masterpiece as always.

    There is no doubting the amount of thought, time, and passion that went into creating and curating this album. It tells a story, and is the evidence of, what has been a triumphant journey to the upper-most echelons of musical talent. Yet, this album does not brag about this feat, indeed, it takes a step back and allows us to truly understand the workings of the worlds biggest boy band.

Yet, this album does not brag about this feat, indeed, it takes a step back and allows us to truly understand the workings of the worlds biggest boy band. Yet to come celebrates all that makes BTS and exclaims this is just the beginning; the whole mood of the album reflects this. The crowning glory being Run BTS, a hip-hop track that has the potential to be the bands magnum opus- indeed only time will tell- but it is an incredible flashback and forward, simultaneously getting us excited for more and nostalgic for the past. The only criticism of this album is the pacing which leaves the two highlights of the work running in tandem (with Run BTS coming directly after Yet to Come). This leaves large expanses of older tracks to drift in anticipation of the new. (This can often leave me jumping around the album, chasing the high of the newer releases). They have done it again!… Expand

    this is one of the best albums i've ever heard. He brings such a remarkable story is important to bts career. I really admire all the effort and dedication of the members, the lyrics of the songs are amazing and the fact that it is an anthology album makes everything more special and great.

    "Proof" is an accumulation of many important moments and songs in BTS' career, it shows the wild and yet kind side. Simply the perfect album to celebrate 9 years.

    Proof it's the perfect ode to BTS' 9 years of hard work in music.
    This 3 CD anthology is more than just a "the best of", but a showcase of the group's range and changes through the years. And the new songs, Yet To Come, For Youth and Run BTS are the icing on this perfectly baked cake.

    This anthology album perfectly encapsulates the whole journey and evolution of BTS' music and artistry as musicians. The three new tracks and the demos added new essence and meaning to this anthology album. My favorite tracks are Yet To Come, Run BTS, Quotation Mark (???), and For Youth.

    Proof is clearly an album that tells BTS's story.

With the official release of Born Singer (that's only been avaliable on Soundcloud prior) and demos of previously released songs shows the love BTS put into their craft, their music. Another album that did not disappoint. I look forward to the best that's Yet To Come while enjoying the masterpiece that is the Proof anthology album for a long time.… Expand

The unreleased songs are very good, and far from the Americanized standard that they had been suffering, due to the sobriety adopted in the last releases. The album fulfills everything, even what it doesn't promise.… Expand

Spanning a range of diverse musical genres from hip-hop to EDM to Pop and punk rock to rnb and rap and including everything from high energy songs to slow somber ballads that blend together seamlessly. Almost all songs in the album are individually above a 7.5 rating but songs like born singer, the new run BTS, blood sweat and tears, yet to come, spring day and cypher part 3 are standouts.

    The men of BTS get a lot of unwarranted hate and many refuse to listen to their songs because they are mostly not in English but I think anyone who listens to the album without bias will enjoy it.    … 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.
