BE:FIRST's MANATO, Aile The Shota, BE:FIRST's SOTA
The program 'MILLION BILLION' (Navigator: BE:FIRST) is currently broadcasting on the radio station J-WAVE (81.3FM) every Saturday from 24:00 to 25:00. It is a program that dives deep into noteworthy music and culture, encountering good music as BE:FIRST pushes forward to the next stage.
The broadcast on April 25 (Sat) will be hosted by BE:FIRST's MANATO and SOTA. It will be delivered in two parts: a talk surrounding April's message theme 'New Discoveries! New Experiences!', and a special talk in the second half featuring guest Aile The Shota.
In the first half, under the theme 'New Discoveries! New Experiences!', MANATO and SOTA will talk about people they've recently met, works they are currently into, and things/events they instinctively want to recommend to others! While introducing messages from listeners regarding 'discoveries in their new life', they will also share their own private episodes.
Then, from the second half, Aile The Shota, who released his 2nd album 'REAL POP 2' and is currently on a national tour, will make an appearance. They will dive deep into 'ROMEO', the new song by ShowMinorSavage, a unit formed by MANATO, SOTA, and Aile The Shota.
'ROMEO' is a song that garnered attention when it was first performed in March at the large-scale music project 'D.U.N.K.'. On the program, in addition to talking about behind-the-scenes of the music production, they will reveal the speedy production process where 'the overall picture became clear on the very same day', and their solid response, with all three reflecting on it as giving 'satisfaction comparable to the best in the past'.
And during the program, the new song 'ROMEO' will have its first radio airplay!
