Universal Music LLC (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Fujikura Hisashi; hereinafter referred to as “Universal Music”) will release the charity single “WE ARE” for STARTO ENTERTAINMENT’s project “STARTO for you” on Wednesday, July 24th.

This work is a charity single by “STARTO for you”, a project that brings together 14 groups and 75 artists from STARTO ENTERTAINMENT. All singles and digital songs will be on sale for a limited time until December 31, 2024 (Tuesday), and all proceeds from the work will be donated to the victims of the Noto Peninsula earthquake of 2024.

The song was created with the hope of delivering a song that would hopefully be one of the sources of motivation to move forward positively each day, with the hope of a speedy recovery. It is an encouraging song that says, “Even though there are difficult times, let’s forge ahead toward a brighter tomorrow and future,” and contains a message for all those who are hurt and sad on the journey of life.
