CITY GIRL VELOCITY is an electro-pop tune about the real emotions and speedy days of a 20-something girl running through the city.
The lyrics were written by usabeni herself. The lyrics are a mixture of impatience, hope, loneliness, and sparkle that she has felt in her twenties, and are written from her own life.
The music is composed by Q-Rabbit, who creates kawaii music based on Future Funk. The refined electronic sound is overlaid with usabeni's delicate yet powerful vocals, giving the song a somewhat retro and nostalgic air.
The music video, directed and edited by usabeni herself, was shot at her home and at Chatan in Okinawa. An iPhone and a small camera were used for the filming, with an emphasis on the texture and live-action feel created by these familiar devices.
The video depicts a futuristic and pop worldview that seems to be a fusion of analog and digital, and the image of an independent woman.
Since 2022, usabeni has been developing a solo project rooted in full creative self-direction. She independently handles every aspect of her work, including graphics, video, and choreography, and has established a style where she controls the entire process of expression. Her sound is based on beat-driven, synth-oriented pop, with lyrics that honestly reflect her personal emotions. By blending a non-conventional idol identity with a deeply individual musical approach, she continues to shape a unique style with global potential. In addition to her artistic activities, she runs the shop NARUHESON;S in Kobe, where she produces original apparel and zines. She also collaborates actively with local businesses. Her passion for Thai culture has led to live performances in Bangkok and the release of local Vlog content, expanding her reach across Asia.
