(Unless BTS has another album coming out that we don’t know about yet?) After laboriously pondering which period of BTS was their best, I’ve come to believe the correct answer may simply be that we are currently living in it. The newly released Map of the Soul: 7 contains some of BTS’s best work to date, from the rip-roaring lead single “ON” to the ultra-personal tear jerker “We Are Bulletproof: The Eternal.” It’s immediately one of the best pop albums of the year, and it’s hard to imagine anything topping it in the coming months. You could say I gave it my blood, sweat, and tears.įorty-eight hours later, that list is immediately, hilariously irrelevant.
I spent hours, weeks, months on this I watched EVERY BTS VIDEO EVER MADE (don’t fact-check this) and listened to EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEIR SONGS (don’t fact-check this, either).
Two days ago, I wrote about every era of BTS-from the rougher early days to the iconic eras of Wings and Love Yourself-and loosely ranked each of them.
