He added that the upcoming album will be very different from his previous work and will also feature some of his friends. The work is said to ‘recall and recount’ the life experiences of the artist like a diary.
BigHit Music, the talent management agency of BTS, said in the official statement, “RM has already given fans an honest look into his world through two mixtapes. Through ‘Indigo’, RM delivers his candid thoughts and feelings and showcases wide-ranging music through collaborations with various artists.”
