THE BOYZHello we are THE BOYZ and you are watching Billboard News

Tetris KellyHey, what’s up it’s Tetris with Billboard News and we get to have some fun today I’m hanging out with some fellas from THE BOYZ.

Tetris KellyYou just dropped a brand new project Phantasy Pt.3 So now that it’s all out, I mean, you guys decided to release it in three parts. But what makes this one different than the first two?

Well, we took the word Phantasy and split it up into three different kind of worlds. And this one is kind of like funeral slash graduation. It’s kind of saying goodbye to the past and welcoming the future. So it’s kind of a emotional but hopeful kind of vibe.

Tetris KellyOkay, so can you tell me now what’s part of the funeral? What are some things you guys think you’re saying goodbye to?

Well, in a graduation, you’re essentially saying goodbye to your previous years and letting go of the past. If you’re looking at our music video, we’re actually playing students, we’re actually at a graduation. And so you can feel a lot of the vibes watching the music video.

Morat: It was a dream. We’ve dreamed of it. But we didn’t imagine it like that. This is our fourth tour in the United States.
