Last week, the band shared a new trailer for ‘MAP OF THE SOUL : 7’. Titled ‘Outro: Ego’, it sees j-hope at the forefront of an energetic pop song underlined by an Afrobeat-inspired rhythm.

The rapper was performing his viral hit single ‘Old Town Road’ at the LA event and was joined by artists who featured on the official remixes of the song..
Meanwhile, Big Hit Entertainment, the label behind BTS and Tomorrow X Together, have announced plans to launch a new boyband and other groups from labels under Big Hit’s umbrella.
