kawaii NO answer

"There's no single right answer to 'cute'." This is the 6th single from a promising female vocal group where cutting-edge Afro-pop intersects with traditional Japanese instruments.

"Lily's Favorite Cup", whose previous YouTube music video garnered total 280,000 views and who have attracted attention for their alternative presence, presents their latest work.

This track boldly fuses the languid, bouncy bass groove of Afrobeat/amateur piano, which shakes dance floors worldwide, with the sharp riffs of the shamisen and the primitive percussive sounds of Japanese drums.

It's a thrilling dance-pop track with a structure that shifts expression from cool, tight rap that synchronizes with current US/UK trends to the languid melody of a female vocalist.

"There is no right answer to cuteness. Cuteness is limitless freedom."

Neon, pink, Shiba Inu puppies, matcha, and the Tokyo night. The chaotic symbols of the city are sublimated into literary Japanese lyrics, singing of liberation from simplistic lookism.

It's also a statement of their unique pop music philosophy, capturing the small frictions (discomforts) that occur within a 5-meter radius each day.
