JAKARTA - Elton John knows very well how it feels to reach the peak of success in the world music industry. The 77-year-old singer and songwriter also has a long experience worth sharing.
In a chat with Chappell Rosan, John admitted that he had given advice on how to manage fame. "Chappell was a little overwhelmed by his sudden success even though he had written for a long time, his success really swelled very quickly," John said of Rosan's success, during a recent interview with The Ankler, citing NME, Tuesday, January 7.
"I'm just trying to calm him down and say, 'Listen, it's okay. It's okay. Do what you want. Don't listen to anyone. Listen to your own speed. Don't listen to the record company saying, 'We want another album, we want another album.' Do it when you're ready to do it.'"
John said what he learned while at the peak of success, was exactly what he had told Rosan. And he is in a clear position, not wanting to see the HOT TO GO!' singer dim suddenly after a great success.
"I have that experience. I've gone through everything in life. I know what to do in music, seeing people come, seeing people leave. Sometimes they disappear too quickly," he said.

In addition, John is also trying to set another example of the rapid success of young singers such as RAYE and Billie Eilish.
"I'm like a survivor; one of the people who are still at the age of 77. I was probably as popular as when I was young, and it was a miracle. However, it's nice to be able to continue with that and see the results on other people," said Elton John.
There was a British singer, RAYE, who was an extraordinary artist. He left the recording company because of the principle and did what he wanted to do. And it really worked. I admired him very much for doing that. He took a stand and the result was his own vision of what he should have done. His vision just exploded," he continued.
Billie Eilish is one of them. I remember seeing her first album creeping up on the Billboard charts every week: From word to mouth, mouth to mouth, mouth to mouth, and suddenly the album appeared and she became one of the greatest female artists I could think of. I mean, with her new album, the album is amazingly good, and you can say that from all the albums. Every album is different and every album is an improvement. How great is that? I got so much energy from it, "explained Elton John.
