KeeP, with 200 Million Streams, Releases New Album 'PeaceFul' Today! 9 Tracks Depicting 1.5 Years of Struggle and Renewal

The new album 'PeaceFul,' released today, consists of nine tracks centered on the theme of 'how to face negative emotions.' It realistically depicts the struggles and anxieties felt amidst numerous encounters and environmental changes over the approximately 1.5 years since moving his base of operations to Tokyo. While empathizing with the emotions everyone carries—regret for the past, anxiety about the future, and moments of losing oneself—the album sublimates these into a collection of pop, soft-toned songs themed around 'enjoying the present' and 'living with a bit less pressure.' While there were moments of encountering the coldness and irrationality of people in Tokyo, this album was also born from the friends and connections made during those days. The jacket artwork was handled by illustrator Ryo Aizaki, whom he met in Tokyo. The track 'Chotto Waketeyo Positive feat. Akusa' features rapper Akusa, also met in Tokyo. Furthermore, the music video for 'Naru You ni Naru Sa,' scheduled for release, is directed by a dear friend who also appears in the lyrics. With appearances by KeeP's beloved dogs, the video captures the natural atmosphere of an extension of daily life. 'PeaceFul' is not an album that erases negativity; it is a work that marks a new step for KeeP, depicting how to face it.
