SEOUL, KR — (02-21-20) — BigHit Entertainment and Universal Music artist BTS debuts with 19 Million views on their new “ON” official video. BTS members V, J-Hope, RM, Jin, Jimin, Jungkook also dropped their new album Map of the Soul: 7, featuring the lead single ‘ON’.
MTV reported…”When BTS member RM dropped “Intro: Persona” last March, he hinted at what was to come. “The me that I remember and people know,” he rapped. “The me that I created myself to vent out… this is the map of my soul.” This confession set the tone for BTS’s Map of the Soul era, a creative period centered on honesty and self-reflection. It continues with the release of “ON,” the latest single from the Korean artists off their new studio album, Map of the Soul: 7.”
The song is an explosive rallying cry, complete with an entire marching band and a background chorus. There’s a steady refrain of “can’t hold me down ‘cuz you know I’m a fighter,” a sentiment that speaks to internal forces as much as they do external ones; after all, self-inflicted criticism cuts the deepest. Still, their resilience is front and center: “Bring the pain,” they sing. “Even if I fall, I come right up, scream,” Suga raps, translated to English. “That’s how we’ve always been.”
