■Novel Core album “2024 TAPE” will be sold in limited quantities at the venue!
Novel Core welcomes SHUNTO and RYOKI, who are also active as members of BE:FIRST, as featured guests for “OJIGI,” the second song by the three members, about a year and a half after “MF” released in October 2023. was released on January 22nd.
The title of this second work is “OJIGI” (pronunciation: bow), in contrast to the first work “MF”, which has strong meanings such as “Misfits” and “Middle Finger.”
The song was produced by Ryosuke “Dr.R” Sakai, who has worked on numerous songs both domestically and internationally, including Chanmina, milet, BE:FIRST, AK-69, and UVERworld.
The catchy and funny hook and haunting synthesizer melody leave an impression on us, and we bow our heads with the utmost respect to those we respect. It is a highly addictive song that expresses the attitude of valuing the above, not pandering to others, and not easily compromising one’s individuality and style through the unique rapping and singing of the three members. There is.
Additionally, along with the release, the music video for this work was also released on Novel Core’s official YouTube channel.
The contrast of the lighting, the camera work that matches the beat and tempo of the track, and the effects stand out even more through the entire black and white video, creating an unconventional MV that is suitable for these three, creating a simple, cool, yet mysterious atmosphere. There is.
