Slacked
ZIW, Yuka Kawabata
ただダラダラa show to zone out to
朝から夜まで怠惰
やる気にならないんだわ。
つまらないつまらない。
何をしても中途半端
愛想尽かしてるLady
何も無くなってパッパラパー
寄らんNobody
Please somebody help me やる気Switch
ポンて押してTake me 憚らない拘り持って
ブレずに踊ればokay
どうせそんな心配してても
なるようにしかならんから生き急ぐな。
Damn
Everything is gonna be okay
どうしてたって衰える
遅かれWon't last anymore
だから無理すんだ。
遠くはないな
今まだ間に合う
晴れた空やんわりぼんやり誰か見てんだろな
野暮出来ないな
Everything is alright
生唾飲んで耐えたあの日だって超えてきたもんな
一丁前すぐhigh&low
二度は無いこの瞬間を
三歩進めたら二歩はええよ
まぁ全てうまくいく I know
1日もしない無駄
たられば並べなけりゃalright
はてさてkick in the door
俺は出来る。殻破りmake it true
(We've gotta stand our ground)
どうしてたって衰える
遅かれWon't last anymore
だから無理すんだ。
遠くはないな
今まだ間に合う
晴れた空やんわりぼんやり誰か見てんだろな
野暮出来ないな
Everything is alright
生唾飲んで耐えたあの日だって超えてきたもんな

Slacked
ZIW, Yuka Kawabata
The EP Hot Issue marks the artist's first release in approximately five years.
This project is a collaborative work with jazz trumpeter and producer Yuka Kawabata, developed entirely through online communication and brought to fruition in a distinctly modern way.
For the first time in the artist's career, the project places songwriting at its core.
Departing from the previously established style-defined by dark, city-driven textures and the interplay of silence-the EP instead unfolds through a sequence of tracks centered on smooth, accessible, and rhythmically light soundscapes.
Translating the artist's own "hot" experiences and emotions directly into sound, the work retains a striking sense of immediacy, offering a fresh and vivid listening experience that resonates with the audience.
Artist Profile
ZIW
ZIW is a musician from Okinawa, Japan, whose expression is rooted in R&B, hip-hop, and soul, drawing deep influence from Black music. Breaking free from the conventional frame of a rapper, ZIW moves seamlessly between singing and rapping, using a distinctive vocal style to portray emotional nuances and the depth of human experience. In 2026, ZIW relocates their base from Okinawa to Tokyo. With a sharper, more refined sound and expression, ZIW's music continues to expand beyond the local scene, stepping into a new phase on a national scale.
