The latest release from Lana Del Rey is about to complete a month after its release. The album is called ‘Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd’ and is a sixteen-track set. It is slowly but steadily picking up the pace of popularity and is getting its streaming numbers multiplied. But recently it caught the attention of fans when popular K-pop band BTS’ lead singer RM shared this album on his Instagram story.

Kim Nam-joon, AKA RM, has a huge individual fanbase worldwide. He is a relatively new user of Instagram, debuting his individual account with his bandmates in 2021. Since its inception, he has been actively sharing the music and art that he likes with his fans. It seems like Del Rey has become a part of his sharing list, as he shared the album cover of  ‘Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel’ in his recent story.

Artists celebrating each other’s works and promoting them is nothing new in the music industry. Moreover, celebrity sharing Rey’s outstanding album is not news, but what makes RM sharing it special is that both singers come from very different backgrounds and music genres. While the Korean singer is mostly known for rapping in K-pop, hip hop, and R&B genres, Del Rey masters dream pop, sadcore, and trip pop genres.
