Hip Online chatted with Christian from BBMak and asked if the group was afraid they wouldn’t break out of the boy band thing when the first hit the scene. “We were worried about that because there were a lot of bands out and at the time they were huge like *NSYNC,” he explained. “But we knew we were different. We were young guys, but we didn’t dance and we played instruments. I think fans finally got the idea that we were different. We are pop music, which means popular and that is what we do.”
BBMak performed songs from new release ‘Into Your Head’ and signed autographs for fans on Tuesday (August 27) at the Virgin Megastore in Anaheim, California. Check out photos from WireImage.com.
