Seventeen joined forces with Pharrell Williams and unveiled a new song Tuesday at the Louis Vuitton menswear show in Paris.

Pharrell has been the creative director for the French house’s menswear line since 2023. For the fall/winter 2025 runway at the Louvre Museum, the American musician and producer whipped up three exclusive soundtracks including “Bad Influence.”

Nine members of the 13-member act co-wrote the song with Williams and performed the tune as models strode down the runway sporting his collaborative work with Japanese designer Nigo.

“We are happy and honored to collaborate with Pharrell Williams who we have admired,” said the bandmates, “and hopefully our music will connect with our listeners.”

Separately, Seventeen will hold concerts in Singapore this weekend for its ongoing tour "Right Here" before heading to Jakarta and Bangkok.
