SHUNTO's playlist is here.

🐨's comment:
UVERworld's music gave me a lot of support, so I created a playlist based on what I liked & as a Crew myself, lol
I'd love it if you could listen to the playlist & discover UVERworld's music!

BIG Respect for UVERworld

All companies in Japan report on their book keeping yearly, and BMSG is not the exception. However, since BMSG is a privately owned company (i.e. there are no external investors), their reports are not particularly detailed.

It's important to take into account that BMSG's financial years run from June to June, since according to SKY-HI they started keeping books of the company in June 2020.
