and find BTS confessing, as artists, the fear of losing their passion for music.

"Black Swan" received widespread acclaim from

UK Singles Chart and number 57 on the US Billboard Hot 100
, in addition to entering record charts in several other territories.

Background and release

Following the release of their sixth

Suga.[11] The release was in line with the band's global public art project, Connect, BTS, bringing together 22 contemporary artists across the world for curating works that resonate BTS' philosophy.[12]

Composition and lyrics

"Black Swan"
A 19-second sample leading up to the bridge of "Black Swan", described as an emo hip hop song featuring trap drum beats and guitar instrumentation which music critics compared to the band's 2018 single "Fake Love".[13][14][15][16]

"Black Swan" has been described as an

a capella vocals layered over "stripped-down" string-heavy instrumental production.[22][23] In its composition, the studio version incorporates "synth-y guitar riffs" and a "pounding beat."[24] The blend of trap beats with "mournful" instrumentals during production was used to create an "atmospheric" and "haunting" mood.[21] Jason Lipshutz, writing for Billboard, noted that the instrumentation accentuates "the interwoven hooks, rap verses and falsetto exclamations."[25] The song opens with distinctly East Asian riffs built over a rhapsodic melody, accompanied by distorted vocals.[26] Pitchfork's Sheldon Pearce noted the heavy use of Auto-Tune in the song.[27] Meanwhile, Evening Standard's Jochan Embley noted that the track incorporated the traditional 12-stringed Korean instrument gayageum.[28] Throughout the song, BTS' vocals are "layered and processed" to make them "indistinguishable" from each other, showing how they are one unit of seven people, while the minimalist sounds represent a subdued inner.[29][30][31] At several points, the voices of the band sound like "an inner monologue torn between pushing through and carrying on as normal" or "being riddled with uncertainty and hesitation."[30] Critics have compared the song to BTS' 2018 single "Fake Love".[15][16]

According to Yonhap News Agency, "Black Swan" continues the theme of exploring one's ego from BTS' previous album, Map of the Soul: Persona, inspired by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung's theories of human psychology.[14] The Korea Times's press release described the song as "a confession of an artist who has truly learned what music means to himself," in which "BTS dives deep into their inner selves as artists and faces the shadows they had once hidden."[32][33] In an interview with Zach Sang, the band described the song as "very personal" in which they wanted to talk about their shadows.[34] In the trap ballet, BTS use introspective lyrics to confess the fear of losing passion for music.[30][35][36] "Black Swan" details the relationship artists have with their craft, comparing the harrowing feeling of loss of love for the craft to death, with lyrics such as "If this can no longer resonate, no longer make my heart vibrate, then like this may be how I die my first death."[a][21][31]

Reception

"Black Swan" was met with acclaim from music critics. In her review for

E! Online deemed it their "most dramatic song yet."[41]

Initially, "Black Swan" debuted at number 7 on the

New Zealand Top 40 chart.[49][50] The song was also moderately successful in several other territories including Australia,[51] Germany,[52] Japan,[53] Switzerland,[54] Ireland[55] and Flemish region of Belgium.[56]

Accolades

The song achieved substantial popularity, earning the Melon Popularity Award for five consecutive weeks.[57]

NPR's Stephen Thompson called the art film "lavishly choreographed" and pointed out how it "nicely reflects the song's message — about artists' fraught relationship with the work that sustains them."[69] Christie D'Zurilla, writing for the Los Angeles Times, labelled the visual "artsy".[66] Entertainment Weekly's Nick Romano called it as "honest and raw" as the Black Swan film.[70] Reviewing for Clash, Robin Murray deemed the video as "a riveting watch."[40] Corey Atad of Entertainment Tonight Canada echoed similar sentiments and acknowledged the "gorgeous interpretive dance."[71] Ellie Nicholas of Celebmix connected the music video with the song's lyrics and gave a positive review, writing "The phenomenal choreography meshed with the orchestral instrumental and lyrics created a truly moving atmosphere to really bring to life the meaning of the track."[72]

A second accompanying music video was uploaded to Big Hit's official YouTube channel on March 4, 2020, without any prior announcements.

Vulture, Rebecca Alter called the video "perfect."[82] Lake Schatz of Consequence of Sound wrote that "the group’s bold and exquisite dance work is captivating in itself, but also symbolizes a swan-like transformation, as BTS eventually swap their crisp white suits for black ones."[75] Paper magazine's Matt Moen called it "positively breathtaking."[84]

BTS performed "Black Swan" for the first time on
