Every time he has a new release, I always have hope that I won't hear any autotune when I press play.

...and every time I am disappointed lol.

Ditto on that . It has been years since Shota last put out autotune free material

And I thought Shota rapping was bad which was 1 of the reasons I did not listen to Umbrella

Suddenly that ain't so bad as compared to autotune overload , since early 2015 & counting

Shota is featured in a new AK-69 PV titled Lonely Lion



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16J9qPPvL-8

Lonely Lion was created by both Shota & AK-69 and it's included in AK-69's album THE ANTHEM that was released in Feb

And talking about Lonely Lion , Shota made a guest appearance in the video footages of AK-69's THE ANTHEM in BUDOKAN that will be released next month

Shota will release a new digital song Breathe Again next Wed

Breathe Again digital cover

Barks wrote that Breathe Again will be a Summer tune that has a tropical house influence

Not having high hopes about Breathe Again but if for once there's no auto tune in the song , I will be shocked , in a good way

Shota , Aoyama Thelma & Swish! will be performing at the 58th Kishibe Sai no Live

58th Kishibe Sai no Live will take place at Osaka Gakuin University on 19th Oct

Breathe Again PV



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGtl72dCC3w

Quite surprised the PV is not region locked which's a 1st :O

Shota only appeared in the last few seconds of the Breathe Again PV where he played a rather hip looking lifeguard ? LOL

Breathe Again PV setting is a swimming pool party . It was shot using a 20x high-speed camera & only 7 seconds was used to shoot the slow motion video :O

Celebrities who appeared in the Breathe Again PV include :

- comedian duo EXIT
- Antony (Matenrou)
- talento Dekami Paipai
- Aoyama Thelma
- Tachibana Toi (DISH//)
- Touyama Mirei
- BYOB
- Tokumoto Natsume
- Nakamura Marin

Been quite a long time since Shota last did any form of TV promo

I will not be surprised if 16th Nov's MUSIC FAIR episode Shota will mainly sing cover songs by Makihara Noriyuki

Let alone that episode is to celebrate Makihara Noriyuki's 30th anniversary in the business too

Makihara Noriyuki will release a self cover album Bespoke on 4th March

Bespoke will include songs that Mackey has provided to other artistes over the years

And among the songs Mackey will self cover in Bespoke is Sakura Melody
