Wikipedia

  1. Upturn

    Upturn is the twenty-first single by Japanese hip-hop group Lead, released on June 19, 2013, becoming their first release of the year. It became their third consecutive single to chart in the top five on Oricon, ranking at No. 5 for the week, and remained on the charts for three weeks. The single was released in four formats: two standard CD editions and two CD+DVD editions, with each edition carrying different content. Each edition harbored different content and varying cover art. While both CD+DVD versions contained the same b-sides on the CD and different material on the DVDs, the CD editions harbored different coupling tracks depending on the purchased edition. Upturn became their first release without lead vocalist and group leader Hiroki Nakadoi, whereas he left the group after their previous single due to feelings of inadequacy.
