A artista chinesa independente XTIE, votante do Grammy, saiu em defesa do pronunciamento do BTS sobre a categoria "Pop Asiático" em seu TikTok.
"Só pra dar uma perspectiva sobre a controvérsia do Grammy: Eu sou uma artista de Hong Kong. Eu usei melodias do folk cantonês nessa música*. Eu usei instrumentos chineses. Eu a escrevi e produzi. Mas ela não está elegível a 'Pop Asiático' porque eu a cantei em inglês.
(...) Eu sou membro votante da Academia desde 2024, e fiquei chocada de ver que essa categoria foi aprovada sem antes ter tido uma conversa com a comunidade artística asiática fora dos Estados Unidos."

Oh and that too... Grammys signed a 10 years deal with Disney+ to livestream globally. They need global audience this deal to pay, and there are very few artists capable of pulling global viewership. Even less among US centred grammy darlings. BTS' netflix live comeback proven their capability perfectly well. Grammys need BTS for this and BTS' boycott lobbed a bomb in their face
who needs a grammy when this is what BTS concerts look like everywhere they go in the world with every stadium becoming a sea of lights and every lyric sung right back to them
Said it before but I really wished there was a BTS festival. BTS only. For each day there could be different sets, members solo, duos, units, rapline, vocal line, and of course group ones. They could do it all from near home, it would create a space for them to try formats and stages they wouldn't on tour (yet). The atmosphere of army festival would be otherworldly. Armys would flood to Korea and benefit all other related businesses. Especially that it would create a unique experience unreproducible anywhere else
FIFA will reportedly extend the World Cup Final halftime to 30 minutes for performances by Madonna, Shakira, BTS and Justin Bieber, breaking its 15-minute rule.
— The move aims to rival the Super Bowl.
