ARM is a brand new project of Akakage (Yoichirō Itō), RYO-Z (Rip Slyme) and three-MC rap crew MGF. Also featuring Hashimoto Takahide (Zainichi Funk) on cuíca and saxophone, and singer Asca Hirayabu on back vocals, this first single is a rap party tune with a latin feel and a cumbia beat. The artwork was done by Itō Yoichirō, who recently began as a painter as "Yoichiro" (official site).
