The music video for the lead track “Fire Atsukiro”, which is currently available for pre-release from NakamuraEmi’s new album “KICKS”, has been released!


The music video for the lead track “Fire Atsukiro” from NakamuraEmi’s seventh major original album “KICKS” to be released on May 29th (Wednesday) has been released.

(“Light the Fire” music video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkndngtFArI)

NakamuraEmi

This music video is based on the world view of the song, which sings about the conflicts and frustrating feelings that occur in daily life, and uses an elevator to express the difficult life and sense of confinement. The film is worth watching, depicting the story of a person struggling in a small space, searching for light, and jumping out into the outside world. Along with the unique cast including office workers, gals, and dancers, pay attention to Emi Nakamura’s facial expressions that change variously depending on the scene.


“Fire” will be distributed in advance on various distribution services from May 15th (Wednesday) ahead of the album release.

(Song distribution linkhttps://nakamuraemi.lnk.to/hiwotsukero)

We hope you enjoy the songs and music videos while building up your expectations for the album, which will be released on Wednesday, May 29th.


Additionally, we are currently conducting a campaign to recruit “KICKS” ambassadors, in which we are distributing data on album announcement posters and asking people to post them freely in shops, offices, etc. to spread the word about the album release. Individual participation is of course also welcome.

(Poster data download link:https://xgf.nu/NzaZJ)

Those who downloaded the data, printed it, tagged the hashtag #NakamuraEmiKICKS and NakamuraEmi’s official account, and posted a photo of the poster on their own X or Instagram (Feed/Story/Reel). Five people will receive an autographed B2 poster as a gift, so please be sure to participate.

[“Light the fire” self-liner notes]

Even though the number of ways to communicate has increased so much, why is it that most of our problems are related to people? I wonder why I can’t remember your face, voice, or feelings even though it’s so convenient. I still remember the face of the friend I hurt when I was in elementary school, and it hurts.

Even though the human body has evolved from a chimpanzee, the human heart will still be soft in 2024, and the nutrition that reaches the heart may be the same as it has been since ancient times. When you feel like you’re suffocated by invisible communication, or when your heart feels like it’s freezing, let’s move forward together. Let’s light a fire together. Let’s fight together.
