However, he added, "But I love the evolution and this idea that it's not about him; it's about empowering somebody else."

Johnson admitted that performing the song wasn't easy for him, revealing, "Abigail and Emily came in with something that was very challenging and I loved it. That was multiple sessions to get that song down because it goes into a lot of different places. Their words, not mine, it's 'Bohemian Rhapsody' and all the places that it goes. So it was a challenge, but I loved every second of it."

"I got bars. I grew up loving hip-hop music. My love is hip-hop music and traditional country — put them together. That's how I grew up," he added.

Since Moana 2 is now in theaters, Johnson joked that fans might have a new catchphrase for him, saying, "It has that potential as an anthemic song."
