"DARE & DEFY" is a joint EP by DIFLLA and Daiki a.k.a. Kangaechu, both born in 1993.
The two first met in Okinawa in November 2023, bonding over their shared age, the initial "D," and their songs - Daiki's "Toomawari" and DIFLLA's "Toumawari."
After creating "Don't Worry" [Prod. 906 Nine-O-Six] in January the following year, they decided to expand the collaboration into a full EP.
The title "DARE & DEFY," meaning "to challenge," represents their shared theme of breaking free from the current state.
Producers include 906 / Nine-O-Six, Shinnosuke Minagawa, 2KASA a.k.a. Out Kid On The Beats, and Katsutoshi Araki.
Guest appearances by v'llain and T-CHU add depth to the project, along with a brand-new remix of YAMATO HAZE's "HEART BEAT" [Prod. NARISK].
Mixing and mastering were handled by ZIPSIES, a DJ and beatmaker based in West Tokyo.
