It has been revealed that BTS’s V will be collaborating with pop artist Bing Crosby. According to Big Hit Music, this collaboration began with a special connection between V and Bing Crosby, initiated by Crosby’s team recognizing V’s admiration for him.
V has actually mentioned Bing Crosby as one of his favorite musicians and has covered songs like “It’s Been a Long, Long Time.” Primary Wave, Bing Crosby’s agency, stated, “We thought V was the perfect artist to do a duet of ‘White Christmas’ with.” They chose “White Christmas” because it is a universally beloved carol, making it a natural choice to perform with V.
Since its release in 1942, the song has been covered by pop stars like Michael Bublé and Taylor Swift, but this is the first time it will be reborn as a duet. The partnership was described as surpassing strategic collaboration. Primary Wave expressed their satisfaction, noting that V’s passion and dedication to the duet made it truly special.
They further commented, “The two voices will blend beautifully, and V’s genuine emotion is expected to deeply resonate with music fans worldwide.” V will release “White Christmas” on the 6th at 2 PM.
