SEVENTEEN sat down for an interview with Billboard's Tetris Kelly during the backstage of the 2024 Billboard Music Awards, where they talked about their collaborative track "LOVE, MONEY, FAME" with DJ Khaled and more.
"It was an honor to work with him, as I've admired his work," said Mingyu when talking about their team-up with the record producer. "It felt nostalgic because the vibe of the music I enjoyed in my younger days seemed to come alive so vividly."
"And then when I came to the U.S. two years ago I mentioned that I wanted to collaborate with DJ Khaled during an interview, so it felt surreal that this became a reality," Hoshi added.
When Kelly then asked about what's next for SEVENTEEN to accomplish after the BBMAs, Hoshi faced the camera and proudly declared, "GRAMMY."
