BALLISTIK BOYZ, currently busy training in Thailand, released a new track titled Drop Dead feat. TRINITY on February 16. This marks the group’s first time collaborating with a popular Thai artist, and to commemorate the occasion, the music video has also been released on the High Cloud Entertainment YouTube channel.

 

In September 2022, BALLISTIK BOYZ moved their base of operations to Thailand to realilze the group’s motto of “music has no borders.” The group has since appeared at a number of live events, including the OCTO POP FEST in October 2022 and the BIG MOUNTAIN MUSIC FES 12, one of the largest festivals in Southeast Asia.

 

Drop Dead feat.TRINITY - BALLISTIK BOYZ from EXILE TRIBE (Music Video)

Drop Dead feat. TRINITY was created following an encounter with TRINITY, a popular T-pop group that shares the same aspirations as the BALLISTIK BOYZ. The group is known for blending pop and rap with addictive Trap and EDM beats, and this new track shares the feelings many experience while chasing their dreams. Designed to give listeners a bit more fighting spirit, it’s perfect for blaring when you need a pick-me-up.

 

The music video tells the story of how BALLISTIK BOYZ and TRINITY met in a foreign land, taking on the world stage and trying to make it where many challengers have lost their dreams and given up. Filmed in spectacular locations across Thailand, the video has plenty of cinematic flair.

 

Footage from the song’s recording sessions can be seen on the New School Breakin’, a brand-new reality show on High Cloud Entertainment’s YouTube channel. Fans can also see the first collaboration performance between the two groups during the BIG MOUNTAIN MUSIC FESTIVAL 12.

   

Comment from BALLISTIK BOYZ

“We’re proud to announce the release of our first international production, Drop Dead!!

 

 This time around, we collaborated with TRINITY, an incredible group from Thailand. Fusing together J-pop and T-pop, we’re aiming to bring Japanese music to the rest of Asia, and from Asia, we want to spread to the rest of the world. This song really shows off our determination in the music, lyrics, and choreography!

 

This is our first attempt at completely English lyrics, and I think it gives a brand new feel to the BALLISTIK BOYZ. I hope you’ll listen to it and check out the music video!

 

We’ll continue to work hard to take this song to the next level, so please continue to support us!”

Seven-member dance and vocal group BALLISTIK BOYZ has released Dramatic wo Nokoshitai on streaming services. The track will serve as the theme song for the SoftBank Winter Cup 2022, the national high school basketball championship. In conjunction with this release, a Winter Cup x BBZ Rec short film has also been released.    The song's message is that winning isn’t everything and that whether we win or lose, we should focus on the positive feelings that came with competing and the friendships we make along the way.    The two ambassadors for this year's tournament also joined in: Yuki Kawamura (Yokohama B-Corsairs) and Aika Hirashita (Toyota Antelopes). While the rivalry is at the heart of the event, it’s clear that both sides want the other to play at their very best.   Dramatic wo Nokoshitai - Winter Cup × BBZ Rec (Short Film)

The accompanying short movie features footage of the song’s recording and last year’s Softbank Winter Cup competition. Selfless devotion is at the heart of the song and video’s message, whether that devotion is towards sports, schoolwork, or anything in between.   While every day might not be the best, it’s easier to stay motivated when you have something to work towards.   Does this song make you want to do your best?
