BTS 'Butter' will essentially dwell on the dance-pop genre which will exude the group's magnetic charm and mark the group's second English single after last year's record-breaking hit 'Dynamite' which reigned the global music charts for months. 'Dynamite' also brought the 21st-century pop icons their first-ever Grammy nod for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, making the South Korean Music act the first Korean group to get the nomination.
