“Blissful”
Lyrics: SKY-HI
Music: ZEN, LOAR, Akun, Sunny, MANATO, LEO, SKY-HI
Produced by SKY-HI, ZEN (INIMI), Akun (INIMI)
The lead track from BE:FIRST’s long-awaited second album is a song that celebrates the life they’ve lived so far.
BE:FIRST has made an impact on the world with their hard tracks up until now, but this time they have completely changed their look. Over the simple and comfortable track by Zen (INIMI) that has a strong taste of mid-2010s HIPHOP, they sing about how hard, rough and tough their journey has been, and how it is therefore valuable to be able to spend this moment together with their friends who have shared the good times and the bad, and celebrate their success together.
In today’s society, where the development of social media and the acceleration of communities that incite division have made it commonplace for people to sometimes scorn, belittle, and put others down, this is a song by BE:FIRST that shines with the preciousness of self-love, not self-love, but self-love, where people improve and recognize each other without comparing themselves to others.
The choreography for this work was done by members SOTA and KAITA (Rht.). They incorporate moves that anyone can dance to, such as Side Candy and CAT DADDY, which were popular in the 2010s, and the choreography is relatable and convincing, as only BE:FIRST, who have proven their overwhelming dance skills with songs like “Boom Boom Back,” “Mainstream,” and “Masterplan,” can express it.
The music video for “Blissful,” which has already been released, is BE:FIRST’s first overseas shoot, and shows the seven members as they are, set in New York. It has already exceeded 1 million views, and has been attracting attention, winning the #1 spot on YouTube’s trending chart and #1 spot on the trending music chart.
