On the red carpet for the premiere of his and Kelly Clarkson‘s American Song Contest, Snoop Dogg revealed that he and BTS have a collaboration in progress.

“The BTS experience you keep talking about. I’m going to let them tell you about it. It’s official like a referee with a whistle. I love that entertainment world. It’s good music. It’s (a) vibe. I make good music. They make good music. And we end up doing this. This is what it’s always about, bringing our worlds together,” Snoop Dogg said.

The K-pop group first hinted at their admiration for the rapper when they included a nod to his debut album Doggystyle in their 2014 track “Hip Hop Phile.”

Their collaboration was first hinted back in January when Snoop Dogg revealed on the Mogul Talk podcast that he had received a request from global sensation K-pop artists BTS to collaborate.

“I got a group named BTS that’s waiting on me to do a song with them right now. And I’m trying to figure out if I got time to do that s—,” he told the hosts.

During the podcast, the rapper also talked about his own contribution to the K-pop genre during his career.

“I’ve been experiencing the K-pop experience for a long time, connected to the music world (and) scene,” said Snoop Dogg. “I got a record with a group called 2NE1 back in the day. Come on now, it’s what I do,” he added.

BTS is set to return to the U.S. next month for The Grammys and four sold-out concerts in Las Vegas. More will be revealed about their collaboration and possible new album information.
