    As a BTS fan, this one of my favorite albums ever. I liked too much every song, even the songs that aren't of my favorite genere. They just became more amazing every time, and it's theirfirts self-produced album. I'm just too whipped for this 7 pretty and good man.

Lo siento mucho por esta crítica, creo que ignorando el hecho de que los chicos sean buenos artistas, creo qué hay que decir que se pasaron un poquito con la estrategia de los remixes, cosa que no me agrada y que su Fandom normaliza cómo algo normal, y nop, no es normal, simplemente arruina a los charts, cosas cómo estás y su Fandom algo anormal diría yo, hacen que gente como yo, piense de esta manera, lo siento.

    Good for you boys and girls who love them. But this is getting out of control. Their music is nowhere near " good". It's outdated and boring. Ok..they are definitely great entertainers but this is ruining music as art. Choreography and music videos can't justify music.

    BE may be the most on-brand album BTS has ever made, recognizing hardship while offering healing and hope and a way to look past our current pain. It’s what BTS has been about since the start of their career.

    BTS are the only artists who have all the human emotions on an album. Emphasis for Life Goes On, which if it could be described would be like a strange but painful sensation in the chest for wanting the unknown as if it were somehow familiar to your soul. It is as if on hearing, the stranger seemed familiar to you and you can only wish to have him back, something you have never had before.

    BE is the album in which BTS's sound crosses over to cement the type of legacy they're building – one that started in youth and is very proudly Korean, but that makes sense for any age or place.

    Frustration and grief animate these songs, but it’s their simplicity and specificity that make them compelling.

    Deciding to reflect on states of mind some of us could resonate to – especially this year – BE serves as a chronicle of what 2020 has been during lockdown: a year of uncertainty, anxiety, depression and frustration. But it also delivers hope for the future.
