Japanese boy band One or Eight collaborated with Korean-American rapper ph-1 for the remix of “Kawasaki,” which is now out.
In the remix, the H1GHR music rapper delivered his hard-edged raps over powerful and danceable beats, unlocking new possibilities for the track.
The core theme of the track, "All or Nothing", draws inspiration from the band's name One or Eight, portraying the bold pursuit of challenges and the fearless determination to seize success through one's own efforts.
One or Eight and pH-1
The track retains the essence of the original Jersey Club sound while emphasizing trap elements, resulting in a more rhythmic and energetic beat, with pH-1’s delicate yet powerful verses adding depth and determination, leaving a lasting emotional impact.
A founding member of H1GHR Music along with Jay Park and Cha Cha Malone, pH-1 is globally recognized for his melodic rap and profound lyrics. With collaborations including UMI, P-Lo, and TXT, as well as his sold out “About Damn Time” solo world tour , pH-1 brings his versatile career and vibrant energy to this new remix.
"When I first heard ‘Kawasaki,’ I felt like, "OMG, I'm gonna spit some things on this track right away." I think each member of One or Eight raps with natural swag that's genuine, and so I'm excited to be part of this track as an artist," said pH-1.
Before its official debut, the performance video for “Kawasaki” surpassed 10 million views on YouTube in nearly a week.
The track broke new records as they teamed up with legendary rapper Big Sean on a dynamic remix of “Kawasaki.”
More collaborations with Asian artists will come in the following weeks.
