An uplifting party tune crafted with a driving, energetic track

The first release from ARM, a rap crew consisting of RIP SLYME's RYO-Z, DJ/producer AKAKAGE (Yoichiro Ito), and the three MCs KSK, 1010, and Jappsy, titled "Each Saturday," has been released.

It's a Japanese rap number brimming with homage to new school hip-hop anthems.

In addition to the aforementioned three, the track was produced with a formidable lineup, featuring Go Hidehisa Hashimoto (Zainichi Funk) on cuica & saxophone, ASCAHIRAYABU a.k.a Milligram on chorus, and hacchi (URBAN VOLCANOSOUNDS) on mixing.

The laid-back MCs create a joyful mood over a driving track with a unique rhythm section full of cumbia rhythms and Latin vibes, making it a party tune that will bring a smile to everyone's face.

The jacket artwork is an original illustration by Yoichiro Ito, who debuted as a painter named "Yoichiro" last year. This is a brand-new classic, fitting to mark the dawn of the 2020s.
