It’s always frustrating watching American interviews where Thomás is trying to answer a question and the interviewer cuts him off before he can finish haha. Like give him time hes mentally translating lol
for the longest time I had this weird feeling of "jboy and the line in the chorus sound a bit alike... what is it??! J is for just but what about the Boy part" and now I realize im stupid
This guy seems very reflexive and tries to expand about his ideas but the interviewer is just concerned about what he thinks of New York. The real american stereothype.
English, of course, is not Thomas' first language, and his ability to express himself with the right words in an "off the cuff" interview is not quite as good as his ability to write romantic and engaging lyrics!!
As an American, I say we aren't all as rude as people from NY or LA. Most are down to earth and normal people who have just grown up in a different culture. Stay Well
My thoughts exactly. It's like he's expecting a man who grew up in Versailles to say that NY is the most impressive city with its urine smell and rats. Just chill... get to know your interviewee.

I wonder is his accent a concise decision at this point? I feel like he could speak with a perfect American accent or a HEAVY French accent if he wanted too yet blends the two.
He can speak perfect US English but by forcing at times a typical french accent he maintains a special exotic touch that appeals to native audiences including US journalists. It's like an act. That's kind part of the business plan. He could be from Sweden or the Netherlands but what would that change to his music?

I think this criticism is rly unnecessarily harsh. This is radio FROM NY, listeners FROM NY. Ofc, he's asking questions relative to his audience.
