BTS set for their second UK number one album with Map Of The Soul: 7

BTS has blessed us all as they are set for their second UK number one with their seventh studio album Map Of The Soul: 7.

The album may have only been out for a few days but the change in tone and sheer honesty in the lyrics had fans hooked from the get-go.

It tops the UK’s midweek Official Albums Chart Update, outselling its three nearest competitors combined.

Map Of The Soul: 7 is the best-selling album of the week so far on CD and download formats.

So far, Ozzy Osbourne’s Ordinary Man comes in number two followed by Lewis Capaldi, Stormzy and Billie Eilish.

The K-Pop band – consisting of Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook – made chart history when they got their first UK number one album with Map Of The Soul: Persona last year.

Meanwhile, BTS revealed all on their new song ON, as well as their amazing relationship with Halsey, who they’ve collaborated with in the past.

The Bangtan Boys shared that their new song ON is a musical diary for the past few years of their lives.

Speaking on New Music Daily with Zane Lowe on Apple Music, the band revealed: ‘It’s like a big diary for our past seven years. So I just want to say it’s like a shrink version of the whole BTS identity.

‘It’s kind of about how we could stumble from time to time but we get, we got back up. And so, like, ON is, like, when did people first hear about the title ON? It’s like, what’s ON?

‘You know, it’s like, it’s very brief. When we say ON it’s like, we on, or, like, on air. It’s like, bring it on. We, we could like imagine it many things.

‘Yeah, so it’s like a declaration for that we have admitted our, like, destiny, you know, all the, all the pains and all the shadows.’
