Rapper Shurkn Pap released a new album on September 29th.

Titled JIYU ("freedom"), the album is said to showcase his unwavering spirit in music and his profound love for his hometown, Himeji. Its 15 tracks include collaborations with a number of Japanese artists, incuding Ryohu from KANDYTOWN, MUD, KOWICHI and BLAISE. However, it also expands his musical horizons beyond his home country with guest appearances from artists from other countries across Asia, including tlinh from Vietnam, Lipip from the Philippines, and Rayi Putra from Indonesia.

"The spirit of Himeji runs deep in my veins, and it is reflected in every note and lyric of this album," says Shurkn Pap. Through JIYU, he aims to "take listeners on a musical adventure, where they can feel the essence of freedom, just like driving out of the city with friends and savoring unforgettable moments together".

JIYU is said to exude an Afrobeat style that infuses the album with an upbeat and energetic vibe, perfect for a road trip or a day of fun with friends.

Links to download and stream the album on various music platforms are available here.

The project is part of the "Future Shock" project made possible by Japan-based bpm plus asia and Brooklyn Yas, in association with M.A.U Collective, which aims to bridge cultures and heritages and unite artists across Asia to showcase the next generation of Future Shock.

The music video for RIDE, which features Ryohu, can be streamed below, followed by the audio for the collaborations with tlinh, Lipip and Rayi Putra.
