[TRANS] 100619 Junsu, JaeJoong and Yoochun Will Work With Kanye West For New Album

Dong Bang Shin Ki’s three members – Xiah Junsu, Micky Yoochun and Youngwoong Jaejoong, who are currently involved in a lawsuit with their management company, SM, will work together with Kanye West, an influential figure in America’s pop music industry, for their upcoming album.

Born in 1977, Kanye West is an African-American producer, and has produced his own debut album “The College Dropout” as a singer in 2004. Thereafter, he went on to release four other albums, all of which topped the Billboard Charts, and have received awards in more than 13 categories in the Grammy Awards. He was once the producer of Jay-Z, Alicia Keys and Janet Jackson, and is currently running a hip-hop record company known as “GOOD Music”. He will, on either the 6th or 7th of this coming August, be headlining in the “Summer Week&T 2010” organized by SK Telecom.

The spokesperson of the three members expressed on the 16th that “they will be going over to Kanye West’s production studio to work on the upcoming album soon. Besides Kanye West, they will also work with pop singer Timbaland in LA and Miami for this production.”

The above matter has been confirmed in Jung Jae Yun’s blog. Jung Jae Yun was once a member of the group SOLID, and on the 15th, he wrote on his blog, stating that “40% of the income of Japanese company, AVEX, comes from Dong Bang Shin Ki alone; (DBSK) are extremely influential artistes. The three members, who were once from Korea’s SM Company, will be releasing a new album, and will be working together with Kanye West and Timbaland for this production.”

Currently, BoA, Seven, Wonder Girls and other Korean singers are carrying out activities in America, but the three members are the first Korean artistes to be able to sign a contract with a professional and influential pop artiste like Kanye West for the release of an album. A related-personale in the music industry shared that “according to composer Kim Hyeongseok, Kanye West has given a high assessment of the abilities of the three members.”
