SQUARE_ONENumber_i

SQUARE_ONE

A track from the album “No.O -ring-,” which also drew attention for being produced by PUNPEE.

The skillful rap laid over a low-center-of-gravity beat and the expansive vocals in the chorus create a pleasing contrast.

With lyrics themed around “starting over” that affirm a fresh beginning, it overlaps with Number_i’s image of forging a new path and gently pushes listeners forward.

Released digitally in May 2024, it’s also fresh in our memories for the passionate performance at THE MUSIC DAY 2024 in July of the same year.

Because it’s imbued with a resolve to aim for one’s own summit rather than comparing oneself to others, it’s a sure-fire track to give you positive energy when you need courage to change your current situation.

The lingering aftertaste, deliberately placed at the very end of the album, is superb.

On a night when you want to forget the busyness of daily life and relax, take your time and really listen.

The balance between English and Japanese is carefully crafted so the words sit naturally on the ear, making it perfect for a relaxing weekend morning or a café break when you want to unwind.
