Tokyo-based Tanzanian DJ/producer DJ BEERT and US hip-hop duo Square Off will release the second installment of their Japan x US hip-hop collaboration project on May 25th. The single, titled Change Up, will feature rapper IO from hip-hop crew KANDYTOWN.

The Harlem borned and raised brothers Trips and Slim, sons of legendary Human Beatbox Doug E. Fresh, started their music career as hip-hop duo Square Off in 2011. Their meeting with DJ BEERT in 2017 gave them the opportunity to launch their collaborative project with local Japanese artists. The first release of this project was What I Want with Japanese rapper febb as Young Mason last February.

For this new release, Square Off worked with rapper and model IO. While being a member of hip-hop crew KANDYTOWN, IO also launched a solo career in 2012 and has since released three albums. The lastest one, Player’s Ballads, released in June 2019, can be listened to on Spotify
