During a recent interview, Ryan Tedder speaks openly about BTS‘ creative process to make music, making a clear distinction between what many people think and the reality of their work at the studio.
The producer interview at Zach Sang Show was released on May 29th, where he talked about his previous hits and recent projects, including his participation in the K-Pop boy group’s new album ‘ARIRANG.’
While talking about the preparations to meet with the boys, Ryan Tedder suddenly made a kind of a warning to all viewers, assuring them: “Anyone at home that thinks that Bang or HYBE is pulling the strings on those guys? A lot of people think that. They are not.”

He continued saying that BTS is totally involved in the creative process, and he pointed out all their tasks. “BTS is picking everything. They’re writing, they’re picking the songs, and they pick the direction. It came directly from that group. There’s no string-pulling.”
With this claim, the producer highlighted the group’s talent and effort, which had been repeatedly questioned. He continues the interview, praising their early releases and their rap songs, which are a great inspiration for their new project together.
