BTS Says Getting a Grammy is "The Final Part of the Whole American Journey"
BTS might seem like they're just getting started, but they already know what their biggest goal is especially when it comes to taking over America.
The K-Pop superstars talked about their big goals for next year and one of them involve a golden Gramophone trophy.
"We would like to be nominated and possibly get an award," RM told Esquire. "I think the Grammys are the last part, like the final part of the whole American journey. So yeah, we’ll see."
The band's album, Love Yourself: Tear, was nominated back in 2019 for Best Recording Package. However, BTS has yet to receive a nomination themselves for any of their songs or albums in terms of composition, performance, or production.
The band did make history when they performed at the 2020 ceremony as part of Lil Nas X's performance of "Old Town Road," making them the first K-Pop band to do so.
2021 Grammy nominations are set to be announced on Tuesday, November 25, so there's a chance that the boys can make those dreams come true. Earlier this year, BTS released their album, Map of the Soul: 7, which falls under the 2021 award show's window of eligibility. Their EP, Map of the Soul: Persona, is also eligible.
While the band is currently sitting on the top of the charts thanks to their recent album, BE, it won't be eligible for a nomination until the 2022 ceremony.
So will they finally make it happen in 2021? Looks like we're going to have to wait to find out!
