Steve Aoki Announces 9th Studio Album Out This June
Two-time Grammy-nominated artist
and producer Steve Aoki announces the
forthcoming release of his 9th studio album, set to drop June
28. Aoki
disclosed details in an interview with Billboard Magazine for their AAPI Issue cover story. Aoki shared that the
album includes collaborations with artists such as Lil Jon, Ne-Yo,
among others. Marking a return to Steve's musical origins, this forthcoming
release is a dancefloor-focused record. It will also further expand upon the
HiROQUEST world that Aoki has recently introduced through his music, trading
cards, and a newly released graphic novel. From the studio to the stage, Aoki's
passion for pushing boundaries and exploring new sonic landscapes shines
through in every track. This is the first part of a two-part project, and more
details will be provided soon.
To coincide with the album announcement, Aoki reveals his
dynamic collaboration “3 Days” with rising star Kalan.FrFr.
The track, which is produced by Steve Aoki and The
Stereotypes, the Grammy-winning producers who have crafted hits including
Justin Bieber's "Somebody to Love (feat. Usher)”, Bruno Mars' "That's
What I Like," and "24K Magic," starts with a lively Afrobeats
rhythm, transitioning smoothly into a relaxed hip-hop groove in the latter half
for Kalan to glide over with his charming rap. With its infectious energy and
innovative sound, “3 Days” previews what listeners can expect from Aoki's
upcoming album. Filmed while on the road, the official music video features
live footage of Aoki and Kalan performing “3 Days” live during multiple shows
including Aoki’s March Ultra Music Festival headline performance. Additionally,
the single includes a festival-season remix by Aoki, which you can listen
to HERE.
