Background

<templatestyles src="Template:Quote_box/styles.css" />

"Many things were not intended as far as our career. We didn't know we would ever reach this kind of position. [...] One day, we woke up and we were like, 'Where are we?' When you don't know where to go, I think the best way is to walk down the road you have been walking on. So, the reboot [songs] is the best way to reflect ourselves and figure out ourselves again: Where are we? What are we doing? Who were we in the past? And [who are we] right now? That's how it happened."

Map of the Soul: 7 is thematically based on the analytic psychological theories of Carl Jung (pictured) – persona, shadow and ego.

Following the release of their sixth extended play Map of the Soul: Persona (2019), BTS took an "extended period of rest and relaxation" in the midst of their Love Yourself World Tour to "recharge and prepare to present themselves anew as musicians and creators" and to "enjoy the lives of young people in their 20s".[8] Prior to Map of the Soul: 7's official announcement, music journalists and fans speculated that Map of the Soul would be a trilogy, and upcoming albums would be titled following the themes of Jungian psychology—Persona, Shadow and Ego.[9][10] RM later confirmed that the record was originally intended to be part of a trilogy until the group changed plans and went on an extended break. He commented, "We thought, 'Why don't we combine them into one album?' Shadow means our wounds and Ego is about accepting our fate. So 7 is a very appropriate title since we've come back after seven months."[9] Prior to the album's release, Map of the Soul: 7 was listed as one of the most anticipated albums of 2020 by Billboard, Rolling Stone, Vogue, Vulture and numerous others.[11][12][13][14]

Music and lyrics

Map of the Soul: 7 is a continuation of their previous EP Map of the Soul: Persona, which itself was based on Murray Stein's Jung's Map of the Soul.[15] The album expands on the themes and concepts of human psychology - "persona", "shadow" and "ego" and traces back the band's journey and growth of 7 years since their debut.[9][15][7] Consisting of twenty tracks with fifteen new tracks and five from their previous release, the record is their longest studio album till date.[16][17] Talking about the creative process behind the album, Suga stated, "It took us a little longer, and this is our first full album in quite a while. But making an album isn't just making the music. We have the songs, there's the choreography and a lot of other elements that come with it, so it took some time."[15] Described by BTS as "deeply personal", Map of the Soul: 7 is self-referential that sees the group looking deeper to share their individual stories through their music.[9][18][19]

Map of the Soul: 7 has been described as a pop,[1][18] R&B,[4][3] and hip-hop[4][2] album that incorporates rock, trap and EDM influences in its beats and production.[2][20][21][3][4] It explores a broad range of other musical styles and genres including emo rap, rap-rock, pop-rock, Latin pop, pop-rap, electropop, disco-funk, synth-pop and Afro pop.[1][22][23][21][3][18][24] Instrumentation through the record is provided by guitar strings and drums.[3][21][24] Sonically, the concept album[25] is diverse with rap songs, slow-paced sentimental ballads, and prog-style music.[1][15][22][3] Lyrically, the album touches upon themes of reflection,[24][22] introspection[24] and the band's path to self acceptance.[22][17][26] In an interview with Zach Sang, Suga explained: "One message that penetrates the album as a whole is that you must face your inner shadow, but resist becoming submerged into its depths."[18]

When it comes to this album, it's called [Map of the Soul:] 7. We worked together for seven years, there's seven of us. It's a lot more than just inspiration, this album contains our stories.

— Suga on the album's title, Variety[7]

Songs

Map of the Soul: 7 opens with the solo track "Intro: Persona", a hip hop and trap song, performed by RM. It samples "Intro: Skool Luv Affair" from the band's 2014 EP Skool Luv Affair and employs guitars, "scratchy riffs" and AutoTune in its production.[19][27][28] The track uses an echoing backdrop to create a retro sound similar to the works of American group Beastie Boys.[19] RM raps the verses aggressively over Warped Tour-esque rock guitars, "pitched choruses" and Game Boy samples.[29][30] Lyrically, the song directly references to Jung's archetypes and sees RM trying to answer the question, "Who am I?"[31] AllMusic said that the song "delve[s] into the struggle between the darkness within and a manicured outer image."[32] The following track, "Boy With Luv" is a playful and fun bubblegum-pop, nu-disco and electropop song,[33][34][35] with disco, EDM, funk, synths and '80s pop elements.[3][28][36] It features vocals from American singer Halsey, who performs mainly on the song's chorus and hook.[36][37][38] Serving as a parallel track to the band's 2014 song "Boy In Luv", the lyrics are about finding happiness and joy in the smallest things in life.[39]

R&B track, "Make It Right" is co-written by British singer Ed Sheeran.[3][40] Driven by synthesizers, the band makes use of falsetto-heavy vocals and belting, singing the verses "with a breathy, close-miked intensity."[28] The production further includes a looped horn throughout the song that was compared to the '00s sound of Amerie's "1 Thing" and Mario's "Let Me Love You".[33] The New York Times noted the song "has some of [Sheeran's] signature soft-soul gestures, but BTS renders them with complexity."[41] The fourth track, "Jamais Vu" is the first sub-unit song on the album performed by band members Jungkook, J-Hope and Jin. A ballad, "Jamais Vu" lyrically talks about the emotion when something familiar feels weirdly foreign.[38][29] Described by RM as "the joy and pain of creating something", the fifth track "Dionysus" derives its name from the eponymous Greek god of debauchery and excess.[42] A rap rock, synth-pop and hip hop song, "Dionysus" includes multi-part hooks, a trap breakdown and double-time drums in the ending chorus.[38][43] Featuring Jin's "rocking adlibs" throughout the song, it is driven by rock instrumentals in which BTS use "metal inspired high notes", "angry rap verses" and "autotuned vocals."[38][37] Lyrically, the song talks about stardom, legacy and artistic integrity by using drinking as a metaphor to the band's desire to create lasting art.[40][43] Noah Yoo of Pitchfork compared the song to Kendrick Lamar's 2012 single "Swimming Pools (Drank)" which is also "a meditation on alcoholism" and described "Dionysus" as "a moment of existential introspection disguised as a party-starter."[40]

The sixth song on the album is a solo track "Interlude: Shadow" performed by Suga and samples the intro track of the band's first EP O!RUL8,2? (2013).[22][24] The emo rap track starts off with a medium-paced beat in an arrangement of electric guitar.[24] During the song's lyrics, Suga raps about the fear and insecurities that come with fame and success.[22][2][1] Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone called it "a prime example of BTS at top strength: a pop moment that feels both intimately personal and exuberantly universal".[1] "Black Swan" is an emo hip hop track which uses instrumentation from trap drum beats and doleful lo-fi-style guitar tunes.[44] It also features cloud rap and contains a catchy hook.[45] Set in an arrangement of somber instrumentals, the lyrics confess the fear of losing passion for music.[46][24][22] Built over a rhapsodic melody, the song features distorted vocals and traditional 12-stringed Korean instrument gayageum.[19][47] It was served as the first official single for the album.[48] NME called it "a haunting, melancholy curveball" that deviates "from an immediate, radio-friendly choice", putting "artistry ahead of mass appeal".[49] Several critics have compared the track to the band's 2018 single, "Fake Love".[50][51] "Filter" is a Latin pop-esque song performed by Jimin, featuring his different sides as a person.[22][3] "My Time" performed by Jungkook is a strobing R&B song about forgoing the teenage experiences because of his career.[18][21] Billboard noted the use of "gritty" guitar riffs in the song, adding a mild rock effect to it.[21] Co-written by Troye Sivan, "Louder Than Bombs" is a trap-inflected electropop ballad.[52][3] It features metronomic beat and falsetto vocal harmonies led by bass.[19][1][21]

The album's lead single "ON" is a loud, lively hip-hop anthem that kicks off with an implosive drumroll in a marching band-style and incorporates choral harmonies and trap beats.[19][21] The song's title makes reference to BTS's 2013 single "N.O.".[1][24] The lyrics "Can't hold me down/ ‘Cuz you know I’m a fighter" and "bring the pain on" emphasizes the album's theme of fighting against darkness, accepting faults and moving forward.[17][19] Variety describes it "an exhortation to their fans, but also homage to their own career."[19] "UGH" is an onomatopoeic hip hop track, featuring the rappers of the band (RM, J-Hope, and Suga) expressing their anger towards malicious haters in the backdrop of "distinctly" East Asian riffs, turbulent strings, gunshot effects, and plinking synths.[3][19][21] The song was compared to the works of Outkast and Travis Scott.[53] "00:00 (Zero O'Clock)" is a sincere soft-pop ballad performed by the vocalists (Jin, Jungkook, V, and Jimin) and features soothing falsettos, vocal harmonies and a trap beat.[21][17][19][23] Lyrically, it is about reminding everyone to stay happy no matter what they are going through and that every day is a fresh start.[17][22][19] "Friends" is a pop-rock song with a calypso beat and is performed by Jimin and V.[2][19] The track portrays their close friendship through its playful lyrics.[24][19] "Inner Child" sung by V, is a sweeping, soaring track full of celestial metaphors that talks about the challenging times he faced.[21][19] Jin's "Moon" is an upbeat guitar-driven pop-rock track that charts the love for their fans.[1][21] "Respect" is a pop-rap track featuring RM and Suga in which they examine the meaning of the word.[3][22] "We Are Bulletproof: The Eternal" is a continuation of BTS's 2013 song "We Are Bulletproof : Part 2."[24] The pensive electro-influenced piano ballad sums up the entire journey of "Bangtan Sonyeondan" (방탄소년단): the Korean name and meaning behind the band.[54][52][26] The album closes with J-Hope's solo "Outro: Ego", featuring samples from their 2013 debut album 2 Cool 4 Skool. The song uses an afrobeat sound in its production.[24][22] The lyrics see him reflecting on his career and the decisions and hardships he faced.[19][22] The song ends on a note of declaration of self and ego.[55]

Artwork and packaging

Map of the Soul: 7's branding, artwork and album design centers around a layered number '7' brand mark, designed by graphic studio Sparks Edition to represent BTS's seven-year long journey.[56] Each individual BTS member's identity and personality was embodied by a different typeface '7' within the layered brand mark. Four different designs of the brand mark were developed to accompany the concept photos of each album version.[57]

BTS released 4 album versions for Map of the Soul: 7 containing different concept photos. Version 1 saw the group clad in white, depicting the members as swans with a "desire for perfection".[58] In a darker theme, Version 2 portrays them as fallen angels with jet-black wings, alluding to their single "Black Swan" and represents "unquenchable thirst".[58] Version 3 finds them seated in a luxuriant Dionysian feast, holding golden chalices, conveying a "sense of calling and will." Version 4 stands out as a stark contrast to the previous darker themes and is done up in the manner of year-book photos. It focuses on the personalities of each individual member depicting their "true selves".[59][60]

Ten months after release of Map of the Soul: Persona (2019),[82] Map of the Soul: 7 was released worldwide on February 21, 2020, by Big Hit Entertainment[83] in conjunction with a dance-oriented music video titled "Kinetic Manifesto Film: Come Prima" for the lead single "On".[84] The video amassed 46.5 million videos within its first day of release, making it the fifth most-watched YouTube video in 24 hours.[85][86] A second cinematic official music video for "On" was released on February 27.[87] With 1.54 million concurrent viewers within minutes of its release, the video broke the record for the biggest YouTube premier of all time and became the fastest Korean video on YouTube to reach 10 million views.[88][89] The music video garnered 43.8 million views on its first day, surpassing Taylor Swift's "Look What You Made Me Do", making it the seventh most-viewed video on YouTube in the first 24 hours.[90] Commercially, "On" debuted at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 with 86,000 downloads and 18.3 million U.S. streams, marking BTS's biggest sales week for a song.[91] The song is the group's highest-charting single on the chart and their first top 5, following "Boy With Luv" featuring Halsey which peaked at number 8 and "Fake Love" which peaked at No. 10, making BTS the first Korean artist to have most Top Ten hits on the Hot 100.[92][93][94] It also debuted atop Billboard Digital Songs Sales chart and the Gaon Digital Chart.[92][95] The song won Best Pop, Best K-pop and Best Choreography at the 2020 MTV Video Music Awards.[96] The music video was also successful, receiving a nomination for Best Pop Video - International at the 2020 UK Music Video Awards.[97]

In October 2021, it was announced that the upcoming Marvel Studios film Eternals would feature the song "Friends".[105]

Connect, BTS

In January 2020, BTS and Big Hit Entertainment launched "Connect, BTS", ahead of the release of Map of the Soul: 7. "Connect, BTS" is a global public art project involving 22 contemporary artists across five cities: London, Berlin, Buenos Aires, Seoul and New York.[106] Galleries in these cities hosted artistic events throughout January until the end of March. According to the "Connect, BTS" website, the project was developed by international curators who "resonated with BTS' philosophy" and "aims to redefine the relationships between art and music, the material and immaterial, artists and their audiences, artists and artists, theory and practice."[107] The project kicked off on January 14 at London's Serpentine Galleries with the launch of "Catharsis", a digital recreation of an ancient forest by Danish artist Jakob Kudsk Steensen.[106] Other works include a "drawing in space" on New York's Brooklyn Bridge by British sculptor Antony Gormley using 11 kilometres of aluminium tubing.[108] In Argentina, local contemporary artist Tomás Saraceno launched his environmentally-conscious "Aerocene Pacha" project that successfully flew a human above the Salinas Grandes into the sky using a solar-powered hot air balloon; it set several new world records for propane-free flight.[109] In Seoul, the Dongdaemun Design Plaza featured installations by British artist Ann Veronica Janssens and Korean artist Yiyun Kang which were a "re-imagining of BTS' signature dance movements", while a performance art program called "Rituals of Care" with 17 artists was hosted in Berlin's Martin-Gropius-Bau.[110]

Map of the Soul: 7 was well-received by critics.[118][119] At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 82, based on twelve reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".[115] Aggregator AnyDecentMusic? gave it a 7.6 out of 10, based on their assessment of the critical consensus.[116]

Rob Sheffield from Rolling Stone called Map of the Soul: 7 BTS's "most smashing album yet, showing off their mastery of different pop styles", praising the broad and diverse sounds that flow cohesively through the album.[1] Writing for Clash, Deb Aderinkomi also praised the album's sonic diversity, stating "Although the sound of the album is wide-ranging, it holds continuity through its lyrics and general sentiment."[24] Sophia Simon-Bashall of The Line of Best Fit described the album as "an impressive, exciting and moving album with slick production" and concluded positively that the album is "a love letter to pain, to the shadows that live within us.[...]It’s a reminder that where there is dark, there is light, and it always possible to find it."[17] AllMusic's Neil Z.Yeung praised the album's concept and production, writing "they transform contemporary trends from the worlds of hip-hop, pop, and dance into a fittingly unique BTS experience."[54] August Brown of the Los Angeles Times wrote that the album is "about being in a band, about the relationships that form and get tested in the crucible of insane fame" along with "the darkest, strangest and yet most relevant and ambitious music BTS has made yet." He commented that the record references to "their roots as a hip-hop act,[...] but attuned to today's misty, hard-kicking sonics and bolstered by everything they've learned in the intervening years as pop stars".[52]

Writing for NME, Rhian Daly deemed Map of the Soul: 7 "as an album full of big ideas, strong conviction and unguarded emotion."[22] Reviewing for The Independent, Roisin O’Connor called the album "a gorgeous tapestry" where "recurring themes speak to a duality in which they weave myriad emotions".[2] Stereogum's Chris DeVille compared Map of the Soul: 7 to the Beatles's White Album writing,"7 is something like BTS’ very own White Album, a collection held together less by a cohesive sound than a familiar convergence of personalities."[3] Corey van den Hoogenband of Exclaim! described it as an album "literally written for—and to—the members and fans" in which "the group made a conscious decision to experiment and give more of themselves [...] focus[ing] on exactly what makes BTS special: its members."[117] Billboard's Tamar Herman summarized the album as "a bright sonic soundscape; a celebration of everything that BTS has become".[21] Jochan Embley of Evening Standard wrote that the album is "an impeccably polished collection, written well and performed admirably."[4] In The New York Times, music critic Jon Caramanica opined that "7 captures a group sure of its place in the pop hierarchy and beginning to itch about what to do next — unsurprising, given that BTS is reaching the point of self-awareness that all superstars eventually reach, but can often be hidden in the hyperstylized world of K-pop."[53] In a review published by Uproxx, Derrick Rossignol wrote: "Map of the Soul: 7 is a reflective album lyrically, and an adventurous one instrumentally, as the group brings disparate influences under their glossy pop umbrella."[120] Chester Chin, in her review for The Star, found the record sonically darker and felt that the band had reached the juncture on the album in their musical career "when the pursuit of artistry far outweighs those of commercial sensibilities."[121] Do-heon Kim from IZM considered the record "as a narrative that summarizes and epitomises the history of the K-pop boy band while also delving deeper on a personal level that retraces the past of BTS."[122]
