New info through her FC.

The response for the new Guru Pon round, just starting yesterday evening, was even higher than in the first one and everything is already sold out!
They gonna start selling the digital prices seperately soon.

Kuu is going to be the visual for the skincare products Aveaute by Eternal Beauty starting in Fall 2021. More infos and preorder links through FCs coming soon.

Ah, yeah, the Olympics - the big Kuu fans, who are members of her FC, the Kawai sisters as well as Kasumi Ishikawa won their medals!
Risako Kawai won Gold again in her wrestling weight category, her sister Yukako Gold as well in hers!
Table tennis player Kasumi Ishikawa won Silver in the team event!
Kuu followed the games at home on TV, see Insta.
Her music was played in the Olympic stadiums as well as on TV - Eh Yo and WORK IT especially, as those were the picked songs by the athletes for motivation.
Generally she's getting a lot of (media) attention cause of that now.

On Twitter people watching lady's basketball right now say that they're playing Kuu as well!
But sadly without displaying the name of the song.

Both performances were great vocally! The belt during the climax of We'll Be Ok was so good, love it.

It's a pity that there are no plans for a-nation this year, even as a digital event like last year which was pretty good.

It was Kuu's cover version of Sayonara no mukougawa they've performed.
Vocals were overall great, but I prefer the performance of We'll Be OK.

We'll Be OK is still doing decently on Line Music, around #35 daily.
For comparison - GOLDFINGER 2019 was weekly #1 on Line Music in 2019.
But streaming and Line Music grew exponentially since then, so a weekly #12 position is indeed as good or even better than that two years ago.
We'll Be OK already is her 66th most streamed track on Line Music, right after Eh Yo and surpassing puff soon, GOLDFINGER 2019 is her 74th most streamed track in total streams on there.

Just by having a different style for the single cover is a victory. This doesn't happen since Shhh! with the 3 LP size had the same photoshoot, all the singles for reCORD and last year as well.

Curious to see if the PV will be out the same week or on a later date.

I was wondering why they didn't use the pool of the house for We'll Be Ok, but there you go, they went there for DBDB.

I love that mix of black, yellow and gold, it's a great palette for her. Goodies are okay, I was expecting this batch to be her Summer goodies with fans and towels but should have expected something simpler lol Still love the design tho

It's at around 45k streams, which is quite nice for her.
She's also at around 620k monthly listeners now.

In her 2nd week on Line Music it's at # 24.



We'll Be OK is now her 60th most streamed track there.
Johnny's band Kis-My-Ft is now dominating there as they've finally released their (anniversary) stuff for streaming, so its high time is probably over, lol.

Love the goods, the bags and the cushion are amazing!
Love that neon yellow.
I generally dig that she's wearing so much yellow and braids lately, really suits her.
Can't wait for the song on Monday!

Btw. Kuu was also shooting something in the studio 2 days ago in a long elegant dress.
Maybe the cover or a ballad PV? For to be free?

After 2 decades of operation , Shinkiba STUDIO COAST will close next Jan due to lease issues

https://twitter.com/studio_coast/sta...53348624068610
https://natalie.mu/music/news/440541

That's real unfortunate especially since Kuu's 1st concert DVD secret ~FIRST CLASS LIMITED LIVE~ was filmed there years ago

There goes another great Live House venue

DBDB is very catchy, it's another Flicky type of song, very 2014-2015. The instrumental is very close to BOSS from Fifth Harmony to be honest.
