Mrs. Kouto Wakai digs deeper into BALLISTIK BOYZ in “M:ZINE”! Wakai is very excited about the members' amazing skills.

■From the second week onward, a dance collaboration between Mrs. Kouto Wakai and BALLISTIK BOYZ will be realized!

In order to create a music magazine, “M:ZINE (Engine)” is a music variety show that invites one group of pick-up artists every month and asks them about “things they care about from a fan’s perspective” to bring out their true feelings. Starting in October, the program set and logo will be renewed, giving it a more vibrant look, and a new look to deliver the latest music scene and artist information.

The October pick-up artist for “M:ZINE” is BALLISTIK BOYZ. Koto Wakai of Mrs. GREEN APPLE, Hiroshi Yamazoe of Aiseki Start, and announcer Mio Hayashi of TV Asahi thoroughly dig into the charm of these elite group members who can all sing and dance.

BALLISTIK BOYZ is EXILE TRIBE’s first seven-member group in which all members hold microphones and perform dance, vocals, and rapping, and all have the physical ability to perform acrobatics. BALLISTIK BOYZ performed a dance to their first song, “HIGHER EX,” which was written and composed by BALLISTIK BOYZ, with the enthusiastic “DJ Wakai” inviting them in. Let’s show off our abilities right away.

Afterwards, at the , the unique members showed off their skills one after another. Language skills, painting, improvised dance, improvised rapping, and harmonious skills will be showcased. Furthermore, Wakai and Yamazoe, who have soccer experience, were excited by the ability of member Masahiro Sunada, who had studied soccer abroad. They also expressed surprise at the skills of the members who were fluent in languages.

Broadcasts starting from the second week (October 11th) will feature a dance collaboration between BALLISTIK BOYZ and Wakai. Wakai will take on the challenge of the “HIGHER EX” dance that was performed on the 4th broadcast, and which the BALLISTIK BOYZ members themselves had a hard time with. Under the guidance of Rikiya Okuda, Wakai steadily performs difficult-looking steps and choreography. The studio was excited by the dance collaboration with BALLISTIK BOYZ.

Additionally, the program infiltrates EXPG studios. Under the guidance of Yuta Nakatsuka of GENERATIONS, we will delve into the secrets of EXPG (EXILE PROFESSIONAL GYM), where all BALLISTIK BOYZ members grew up.

Furthermore, we will also examine the rumors surrounding EXILE TRIBE. Are the many rumors that are referred to as the “iron rules” true? Also, keep an eye out for the annual event “Wakai Photo Studio”.

In addition, CS TV Asahi Channel 1 will be airing “M:ZINE Complete Edition – A full-on special of the world-class boy group BALLISTIK BOYZ” from 12 noon on October 27th.
