Namie Amuro Ready to Slay With New Single “Hero”
The iconic queen of Japan, Namie Amuro, is gearing up to unleash another new bop.
“Hero”, the diva’s second single this year, will be used as a tie-in with Japanese station NHK’s broadcast of the 2016 Summer Olympics. In true J-pop fashion, a digital release in Japan today precedes the single’s CD and CD+DVD physical release on July 27th. The physical release comes bundled with a new b-side, the boss-bitch sounding “Show Me What You’ve Got”, as well as the instrumentals. There will also be some special gold packaging if you’re lucky enough to nab a first press edition, which you can do so here.
Hopefully, this means that #NA9 will be dropping at some point this year. I’m perched!
