shizunaOn December 24, 2024, SKY-HI had a second interview with Economy News Academy on World Business Satellite (formerly TeleTo BIZ).
Compared to the interview in 2023 that talked about the state of the Japanese entertainment and music industry, the interview in 2024 focused on SKY-HI and BMSG's goals to expand overseas, what they've discovered and what their plans are. The interview also features SKY-HI discussing at length about Japanese music industry's reliance on the CD business model and a need to move to streaming services to keep the industry sustainable and functioning.
Also included in the interview in 2024 is a tour of the new BMSG office as well as interviews with BMSG Artists (BE:FIRST) and BMSG managers (Section 1, 2, 4, Trainee's Base).
On December 25, 2024, the full interview - one hour 27 minutes - was available on YouTube for 48 hours, the version that remains is an abridged, 26 minutes version.
The full interview is available on TV Tokyo's World Business Satellite's website (VPN required).

shizunaTranslation of BE:FIRST's MILLION BILLION PODCAST, Episode 2.5, June 23rd, 2023 and
Episode 3, June 24th, 2023
Other than BE:FIRST's main MILLION BILLION radio show on J-WAVE every Saturday, they also started the MILLION-BILLION podcast back in June, 2023. In the MILLI-BILLI PODCAST, members answer listener questions, messages, give advice, and / or have discussions around the messages listeners send in. The atmosphere is more relaxed, so I've started listening to them!
Episode 2.5 and Episode 3 are together, because episode 2.5 was a preview to Episode 3.
All podcast episodes are available on MILLION-BILLION's AMAZON Music page, so feel free to follow along as you listen to the audio. I will have each episode's podcast linked under the cut!
