Minami Konishi Brings the Cure for Fans Boredom with Upcoming Album!

Vocalist Manami Konishi announced that she will be releasing brand new album Cure on November 25th. This will be the latest album since Here We Go back in 2018 and will be her second album overall. Working on the theme of "a life-sized adult pop album", Konishi commented on the title of the album saying “…for me, music is courageous, pushes me to go forward, and is a kind of motivational remedy.”

The album will release with nine tracks total and is produced by an all-star cast of Seiji Kameda, Masafumi Gotoh of Asian Kung-fu Generation, Takaki Horigome of KIRINJI, and Kan Sano. Konishi will also be doing several covers of hit tracks such as Janet Jackson’s “Again”, Gen Hoshino’s “Ain’t Nobody Know”, and Shinna Ringo’s “Gips”. It will also drop with two editions, a CD-only standard edition and a CD+DVD limited edition. The DVD will include the music video for the track “君とはもう逢えなくても” (“Kimi to wa Mou Aenakutemo”) along with a making-of featurette.
