ARMY has gotten their first look into the new BTS album, Map of the Soul: 7, and it looks a little dark. The first teaser track from the comeback schedule "Shadow" sees SUGA, one of the 3 members of the BTS rap line, contemplating how he wants to be the best, most famous, and richest out there but not if it costs him his privacy and sense of self. This is in direct opposition to RM's (another member of the rap line) song, Persona, off of BTS' 2019 album Map of the Soul: Persona. In "Persona" RM revels in the newfound fame and views it positively, while "Shadow" seems like a direct response to the negative side of fame.
Can't wait to see what the rest of comeback schedule has in store! And yes, I've already pre-ordered the album...
