Amazon Music livestreamed the latest edition of its acclaimed performance series, “Amazon Music presents: In the Paint” featuring K-pop icon TAEMIN, the first K-Pop artist to be featured on the broadcast.
Airing as part of NBA Nightcap, the NBA on Prime postgame show on Prime Video, the South Korean superstar delivered an electric reimagined performance of his acclaimed track “Sexy in the Air.” Fans can also experience his brand-new, unreleased single “Long Way Home,” now available exclusively in the Amazon Music app.
“Long Way Home” is exclusively on the Amazon Music App.
The new episode of “Amazon Music presents: In the Paint” marks TAEMIN’s first live performance following his highly successful Las Vegas concert 'TAEMIN LIVE [Veil] in Las Vegas' at Dolby Live at Park MGM. He’ll look to continue this momentum in the year to come, beginning with a highly anticipated performance at Coachella, representing K-pop as the only male solo artist in the genre included in the line-up.
“In the Paint” brings basketball and music together by reimagining artists’ most essential songs in a cinematic, courtside setting, with each instalment featuring one performance during the NBA on Prime broadcast and a second available exclusively in the Amazon Music app. TAEMIN’s appearance followed three standout “In the Paint” performances from Clipse, Nas, and YG.
