Inside the Music: BoA
As you know allkpop has been supporting BoA by giving away 150 signed albums and tickets to see BoA perform at Kollaboration. Now allkpop is pleased to bring you another edition of Inside the Music with international pop sensation BoA. BoA has been on a hectic promotional schedule for the release of her American debut album, BoA on March 17th. BoA was nice enough to take some time out of her busy schedule to talk to allkpop.
It has been almost 9 years since your debut album, ID;Peace B. How have you changed as an artist throughout the year?
Since it has been 9 years, of course I have grown and matured as an artist. My new album has a very new, fresh and upbeat sound that puts out a lot of energy.
You recently worked with Sean Garrett. How was that experience?
It was truly a great experience working with someone as talented and well known in the industry. He is actually featured on my next single 'I Did It For Love' and he will be in my next music video. I feel very privileged to have worked with such a great producer.
What is the biggest difference between being an artist in Asia and being an artist in America?
I would say the language and culture.
If you could be anything in the world other than a musical artist, what would it be?
If I couldn't be a singer then I would probably say a dancer.
Now that you have been in America for a little while what are some things that you like and dislike about America?
I wouldn't say I dislike America but my schedule has been so crazy flying back and forth from Japan. I would say the jet lag is the hardest part of my schedule these days. I do love the great weather that L.A. has and there is so much great food here!
Is there anything that you would like to say to your fans?
I would like to say thank you to everyone who have supported my transition to the US. I would not be where I am today without my fans. Hope you guys like my new album and don't forget it comes out March 17th! Thanks everyone!
