SEOUL November 02 (Yonhap) -- “As a member of K-pop band giving out a speech at the United Nation or meeting the President of the United States was bit confusing for me, I questioned myself whether I have become a ambassador.” addressed RM from K-pop superstar BTS during his conversation with American pop star Pharrell Williams.
Famous American music magazine Rolling Stones published an article on November 1 (US time) related to the conversation between RM of BTS and Pharrell Williams in August at the modern art museum in Los Angeles.
According to the article Pharrell Williams gave an advice to RM who talked about the pressure he gets as a public personal by stating “When you ask yourself, “Man, am I good enough?” Or, “Do I deserve all this?” I think what makes it easier for me to sleep at night is when I go do that work. It helps answer those questions.”
During the conversation, Pharrell Williams asked how to cope with the emptiness after performing such powerful and impressive stage after showing his admiration to K-pop superstar BTS.
To the question RM answered “I really am aware that fans buy the tickets and they come from Brazil, from Japan, Korea, from everywhere. They come there for just that one night.” adding “I’m a human and I really get nervous and I really sometimes get depressed by, and even get swallowed by, all the energies. But I try to deal with it because I love the music.”
Throughout the conversation Pharrell Williams revealed a behind story of him connecting with BTS members through online while creating his latest album project “Phriends.” Pharrell Williams continued on by stating “I’m actually talking about this way more than I’m supposed to, but it’s a song from my album that [BTS] sang and it’s amazing, and I’m super grateful.”
Moreover, Pharrell Williams asked RM whether he needed his help, and RM whimsically answered by stating “I always needed you, for 15 years.”
Pharrell Williams is a iconic pop star known for his work “Drop It Like Its Hot” featuring rapper Snoop Dogg, and “Happy” which topped Billboard’s main single chart “Hot 100.” Also he collaborated with Jay-z, Britney Spears and more as a producer.
