BTS's V and Bing Crosby's Era-bridging Collaboration

BTS member V is set to release a new rendition of the classic holiday song 'White Christmas' on December 6, featuring a posthumous collaboration with legendary singer Bing Crosby. This project marks Crosby’s first posthumous collaboration in nearly five decades, following his iconic 1977 duet with David Bowie. The collaboration, a joint effort with Crosby’s estate, Primary Wave Music, and Geffen Records, is described as an 'era-bridging' project, blending V's K-pop influence with Crosby's timeless style. V expressed his admiration for Crosby, citing him as his 'all-time favorite jazz artist,' and shared his excitement about singing alongside his idol. The release aims to introduce Crosby's classic to a new generation of listeners and is expected to make an impact on the holiday music charts. This venture is part of V's ongoing musical career, even as he fulfills his military service obligations in South Korea.
