MFS releases new single 'PRIDE' with Grammy-winning production, announces Tokyo band-set concert

MFS released the new single "PRIDE" today. The track, produced by Tokyo-based DJ and beatmaker Bungo, features mixing by Grammy-winning engineer Liam Nolan and mastering by Stuart Hawkes of London's Metropolis Studio.

"PRIDE" is built over a beat rooted in dancehall and dub. MFS delivers his signature low-register vocals, opening with the line "If that guy is an influencer, I'm a prescription." The song centers on a message of trusting one's own words.

MFS also announced a one-time special concert, "MFS SPECIAL BANDSET," set for September 20 at WWW X in Shibuya, Tokyo. The show will feature a full live band performing new arrangements of his music. The lineup includes guitarist HIMI, percussionist Jackson, bassist Makoto Togashi, drummer Manaw, and keyboardist/saxophonist Hinata Ishii.

The Osaka-based rapper, a member of the hip-hop collective ThaJointz, previously achieved global chart success. His 2022 track "BOW," featured in Overwatch 2, reached number one on Spotify's Global Viral Chart and charted in over 45 countries.

"PRIDE" is available now on digital streaming platforms.
