ONE OR EIGHT x FELIP: KAWASAKI Remix feat. thủy

A global anthem

If you thought ONE OR EIGHT’s KAWASAKI couldn’t get any harder, think again.

The rising Japanese boy band just dropped the third and final remix of their hit track, and this time, they’re bringing in some Southeast Asian firepower.

Joining forces with FELIP (aka Ken of P-Pop sensation SB19) and Vietnamese-American R&B queen thủy, this version of KAWASAKI is a masterclass in cross-border collaboration, mixing hip-hop, R&B, and trap into one electrifying anthem.

From the moment the beat drops, you can tell it’s a full-on reinvention. FELIP brings his signature deep flow as he glides over the hard-hitting trap beat with a cool confidence that only he can deliver.

thủy, on the other hand, takes the track to a whole new level with her sultry vocals and an original verse that adds an unexpected R&B twist.

For the dream chasers

NEO of ONE OR EIGHT breaks it down best, saying, “The contrast between FELIP’s deep tone and my sharp sound created an exciting synergy, adding so much depth to the track. thủy’s verse took [the song] into uncharted territory, introducing vocals that elevated the song beautifully.”

FELIP himself is just as hyped about the collab: “It’s an honor to collaborate with talented artists like ONE OR EIGHT and thủy. I enjoy making music that I love, and I hope fans and listeners will enjoy it too.”

And for thủy, stepping into this soundscape was a whole new vibe. “The production was totally different from anything I’ve done before, and I was excited to explore something new.”

At its core, KAWASAKI is about breaking limits and chasing dreams with your own strength—an anthem that hits hard no matter where you’re from. And this remix is proof that Asian artists are pushing boundaries, collaborating across countries, and making waves in the global music scene.

So if you’re looking for your next hype song, something that fuses cultures, sounds, and raw energy into one track—this is it.

ONE OR EIGHT, FELIP, and thủy just gave us a remix that refuses to be ignored. Play it loud.
