Hm if it has a long chart life, it'll probably be able to reach 200k :\ HOPEFULLY that is.

:yes that's the only song that I don't like. Even Melting has grown on me lol the kissy sounds and the lyrics <3 haha

Dejavu is definately a grower. It's becoming one of my favourites and I didn't think it would <3

The only song I'm not that enthused about is 'Aitakute'. Each time it comes up I can't help but skipping it...:innocent

175,947 isn't bad at all! I hope it has good longevity.

Japanese Edition of Far East Movement's Free Wired, which has Make It Bump feat. Kuu as bonus track, will be released on April 6th.

does anybody can translate this information?
they're mentioning Lady Gaga, Rihanna and Black Eyed Peas.
there's also a comment from Kuu and Far East Movement about the collaboration.

レディー・ガガ、リアーナ、ブラック・アイド・ピーズも認めたアジアン系ヒップホップグループ、ファーイースト・ムーヴメントと倖田來未がダブル・コラボ競演！

アジアン・アメリカンとして全米制覇初の快挙で話題のファーイースト・ムーヴメントが日本進出をするに当たり、コラボするべき日本人アーティストを打診する中でレーベル・メイトでもある、ブラック・アイド・ピーズのファーギーとも競演歴のある倖田來未の存在を知り、ラヴ・コールを贈り実現し、新曲「メイク・イット・バンプfeat.倖田來未」を制作。
日本盤デビューアルバムのボーナス・トラックとして収録される。

また最新オリコン・チャート1位を獲得したばかりの倖田來未の最新アルバム『Dejavu』に収録のシングル「POP DIVA」をファーイースト・ムーヴメントのDJヴァーマンがリミックスし「POP DIVA［DJ VIRMAN Remix - FAR EAST MOVEMENT］」を制作。近日発売されるリミックス・アルバム『Driving Hit's 3』に収録する。

■さらにこの2曲の着うた®は3月16日に同時に配信がスタートする。

【倖田來未のコメント】

彼等の記念すべき日本でのデビュー・アルバムに参加できたことをとても嬉しく思っています。
レコーディング当日もノリよく、楽しみながらレコーディングすることが出来ました。
わたしのリミックス・アルバムの中に収録される「POP DIVA」のリミックスもしていただいたんですが、
原曲とはまた違ったクールなかっこよさがとても気に入っていて、最近移動中の車でよく聴いていますね。
いずれもフロアーライクな楽曲だと思うので、歌って、踊って、盛り上がって貰えたらと思います！

【ファーイースト・ムーヴメントのコメント】

「日本を代表する“POP　DIVA”なクミとコラボ出来たなんてメンバー全員エキサイトしてるよ。
「メイク・イット・バンプ」という曲に参加してくれているんだけど、クミの日本語詞の響きと
彼女の声の力にノックアウトされたよ。本当はもっと日本語の部分を増やして欲しかったんだけど、
彼女の時間がなくてあえなく断念したんだ。次回は全編日本語でお願いするよ。」

I wonder why they're mentioning those western artists... they are all three (Gaga, Riri, BEP) artists who Kumi has been tied to in the past.

I would love a RiRi / Kuu collab, or a Gaga / Kuu.

Even though there are some bad songs on dejavu I skip, there aren't that many and the amazing ones make it one of my favorites from her too. :yes

Dejavu is right up there with Kingdom for me... Might make a massive playlist one day.

I read about that on a Rihanna fansite.

I would love a collaboration between Gaga & Kuu or Rihanna & Kuu. Those would be so hot. *___*

In that articel there is a comment of Far Est Movement about Kuu. It seems she impressed them very much! :D

Quote:

"Japan's leading" POP DIVA " I'm excited to collaborate with everyone I could and Kumi.
With "Make It Bump" I was trying to join a song called, lyrics and sound of the Japanese Kumi.
I was knocked out with the power of her voice. I wanted to increase the portion of the Japanese more, really.
I did not have time to give up her sadly. I'll ask next full length in Japanese. "
■ Far East Movement

Using google translator und infos from Kumi-Flash fansite.
Please, tenshi, I'd appreciate a translation by you! :yes

Please, yes, make a full japanese song with her!
Far East Movement x Kuu can be abolsutely awesome, I'm sure!

Far East Movement’s comment:
“All our members are very excited that we could collaborate with the “POP DIVA” Kumi who represents Japan. She’s featured in the song Make It Bump, and her Japanese phrases and her voice knocked us out. We wanted to include more Japanese lyrics, but she didn’t have much time so we had to give up on that unfortunately. Let’s make a fully Japanese song next time, please.”

They wanna work with her again ^-^

EDIT: The site mentions Lady Gaga, Rihanna etc. but that's only to say that those artists have 'recognized' Far East Movement as a talented group. (In other words, they're just hyping it up: "Look! Kumi is collaborating with a group that other Western artists love! Now go listen to it!")

Thank you, tenshi dear! :shughug
I'd love that! It's seriously funny that Kumi was the one with no time, so that there's less Kuu in Make It Bump. :laugh

Ooh a full Japanese track between them two would be very interesting...Maybe a Koda Kumi feat. Far East Movement track?

Omg, I want more Kuu x Far East Movement. *____________________* Please make it true~~~ <3

Thanks for the translation tenshi ♥
I hope that have a FEM's rap, or something like that, in the POP DIVA remix :D

Me too!! Make it bump is awesome!!
But I would love to have a less repetitive track ;)

That would be the best, pls kumi! :luv2

I don't think Make It Bump was THAT repetitive. Of course it's a matter of taste but I don't feel it's so repetitive. :3

Aww I love Aitakute! xD She really impressed me with her ballads for Dejavu ♥

I loved Aitakute ever since I heard that live version. I should really listen to it someday so many times it will eventually have over 100 plays like POP DIVA, Hey Baby and Suki dex3 in my library. It's so good <3
