Zico
Zico discussed why he started creating and composing his own music during a 2019 interview. He said that he initially had no intention of creating music. He was entirely focused on his career as a performer.
However, everything shifted when his modest agency came to a grinding halt. BLOCK B needed to make a new record in order to maintain their momentum, but his agency had reached rock bottom and most of their songwriters had gone. Between two abysses, Zico determined that he needed to resurrect his gang with his own hands.
"To be quite honest, I had little ambition to be a producer and write music. However, my agency was struggling at the moment, and most of our songwriters had departed. We couldn't find a track for the band anywhere. We were deliberating on what to do. We needed to have an album immediately. 'Whatever, I'll simply have to do it myself,' I reasoned." Zico remarked. He started writing tunes for BLOCK B and so "NANRINA" was created!
