BTS released their new album “Proof,” their first anthology that includes three new songs.

the south korean band bts released today Friday “Proof”, their first anthology, made up of 48 cuts spread over three discs that cover the group’s career, and which also includes three new singles.

In the tracks compiled in “Proof” are the main singles of the band released since 2013, some remastered or in unreleased versions; plus new tracks “Yet to come (The most beautiful moment),” “Run BTS,” and “For youth.”

The video of the first of these three new songs was released today at the same time as the album and three hours after its release it already exceeded 2.5 million views on the YouTube platform.

The song, whose video has been shot in the desert and mixes English and Korean, seeks to be a declaration of intent and a message addressed to its fans, known as ARMY.

“The past has honestly been the best, but the best of me is what is yet to come”, “the best time is yet to come”pray some of the verses of “Yet to come (The most beautiful moment)”, in which the group assures that it does not care about the labels they put on it, including “number one”, and that its members are there alone to continue doing what they like: music.

The song uses “samples” widely used in the early 2000s for so-called “sentimental hip hop” and combines the rapping of Suga, J-Hope, and RM with the more passionate tone of the voices of Jungkook, Jimin, Jin, and V.

“It is a kind of life history of the group where its past, present and future coexist”, The leader of the group, RM, said today in an interview with a South Korean radio about “Proof”, of which he added that it is “a special album that contains our history, sincerity and heart destined for ARMY”.

This anthology is BTS’s first release since the single “Butter”, released in July 2021, and seeks to celebrate the ninth anniversary since the band debuted, which falls on June 13.

“Proof”, which refers to the English translation of the group’s name (Bulletproof boyscouts / Bulletproof Boyscouts), is also the first album released by the band since “BE”, which was released in November 2020.
