In December 2020, "TOKIO STAR NiGHT" from the same single was made into a music video directed by Shintaro Kunieda. Despite being the debut work of a newcomer, it received over 10,000 views within a week of its release and caught the attention of various experts. Among them, SKY-HI (Mitsuhiro Hidaka) singled out 2ikKen as "the newcomer to watch in 2021" in his own corner of J-WAVE's radio program "SONAR MUSIC.
