J-Hope chose ‘Outro: Ego’ and ‘Her’ for BTS’ new album
For the second Proof CD, each member of BTS chose a solo song and sub-unit track to be included on Proof. Leading up to the album’s release, Big Hit Music shared “Proof of Inspiration” teasers on social media.
In each “Proof of Inspiration” teaser, a member of BTS explained why they chose certain songs for the Proof tracklist. Big Hit Music released J-Hope’s “Proof of Inspiration” teaser on May 22.
J-Hope’s “Proof of Inspiration” teaser revealed the BTS rapper chose “Outro: Ego” and “Her” to be included on Proof.
In his “Proof of Inspiration” video, J-Hope narrates:
“I included ‘Her’ and ‘Outro: Ego’ in this album, Proof. ‘Her’ is essentially a love song, but some ARMY interpreted the lyrics as being more complex, about feeling the pressures of having to reshape who I am for ‘her.’ There can be many different interpretations, but there are times when I have to wear a mask to hide the sides of myself that I don’t particularly want to show other people. And I sometimes hid because I didn’t want to show that side of myself either. But they are all me. I came to accept all of my sides as parts of my identity, my ego, because the members and ARMY accept all of me. Who I am, just as I am, my ego is my Proof.”
All of the BTS members chose songs for the ‘Proof’ tracklist
The second Proof CD will begin with a new song by BTS called “Run BTS.” The rest of the CD’s tracklist will include solo songs and sub-unit tracks picked by Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V, and Jungkook.
