BTS are feeling nostalgic with their new anthology album PROOF, but the pop superstars have assured us that the best is “Yet to Come.” The project, which features the new single “Yet to Come (The Most Beautiful Moment)” and several other fresh recordings, is available to stream below.
A three-disc collection, PROOF compiles songs from BTS’ discography that “reflect the thoughts and ideas of the members on the past, present, and future of BTS,” a statement explains. Its June 10th release date is especially symbolic, as it coincides with BTS’ ninth anniversary as a band, and the annual BTS Festa that takes place on June 13th.
The first disc begins with a remastered version of “Born Singer,” an unofficial release from when BTS debuted in 2013. Originally an interpolation of a track by J. Cole, the updated version is particularly poignant, as it was written as a reflection of the group’s feelings immediately post-debut. Here, nearly a decade later, the song is followed by many of the group’s lead singles like “ON,” “Boy with Luv feat. Halsey,” and “Spring Day,” and record-breaking hits like “Dynamite,” “Life Goes On,” and “Butter.” Disk 1 concludes with new single, “Yet to Come (The Most Beautiful Moment).”
Disc two features one solo song and one subunit selected by each member of BTS. The tracklist runs in what’s called “fan chant order,” a.k.a. the structure the members’ names run in during concerts. A new song called “Run BTS” kicks things off.
Disc three is where things truly get wild. Stacked with demos and new versions of beloved tracks, CD 3 is a dream come true for ARMYs across all eras. Following bangers like the long-awaited demo versions of “Boy In Luv” and “Boyz with Fun,” the tracklist concludes with another new song, “For You.” Two additional new songs — Quotation Mark” and “Young Love” — appear exclusively on the physical release of the album.
BTS’ last proper album was 2020’s BE. Listen to PROOF and watch the video for “Yet To Come” below, and as you delve into BTS’ discography, revisit our exhaustive guide to the band’s music.
