The girl group KISS OF LIFE is taking its first step toward international activities.
The first Japanese mini-single by KISS OF LIFE, “TOKYO MISSION START“, is an album marking its debut on the international stage, after establishing a unique position in the domestic music market in just two years. The album includes a total of six tracks, including the title track “Lucky“.
The title track “Lucky“ harmoniously blends multiple genres, centered on contemporary R&B, reflecting the group’s identity. With a sound that evokes the nostalgia of early 2000s R&B while remaining modern and sophisticated, groovy rhythms, and lively vocals from the members, it provides an enjoyable listening experience.
Additionally, previously popular singles such as “Sticky (Japanese Ver.)“, “Midas touch (Japanese Ver.)“, and “Shhh (Japanese Ver.)” have been re-recorded in Japanese. The album also includes “Nobody knows (Remix)” featuring DJ me-mai and “R.E.M (Remix)“, a collaboration with DJ SO-SO where electronic elements are boldly added, offering a diverse musical experience from KISS OF LIFE.
Through this album, KISS OF LIFE conveys a new message about “luck.” The confident message “our meeting is luck” reflects the group’s frank and assured charm while reminding listeners that luck, though often desired and hard to grasp, is always by our side.
Since its debut in 2023, by showcasing exceptional musical and performance skills as well as the ability to explore diverse concepts, KISS OF LIFE has solidified its position as a talented girl group. With this album, the group officially enters the international market. Fans, both domestic and international, are eagerly anticipating whether KISS OF LIFE can also establish itself as a leading girl group in Japan.
