Minako Oji Offers Solace and Strength in New Single “SHE”

Rising Japanese artist Minako Oji unveils a heartfelt new chapter with her latest single, “SHE”, dropping October 14, 2024. Produced by Kiufit and born in the creative heartbeat of Paris, the track explores the quiet ache and resilience of young women navigating today’s complex world.

Inspired by the streets of Shinjuku and Okubo, Minako paints the story of a lost soul—SHE—a girl adrift after love and dreams slip through her fingers. But within the melancholy, a spark remains. The moment she starts to dance, everything shifts. What seemed like surrender becomes a quiet revolution—a rediscovery of light, strength, and self.

“She’s imaginary, but she’s also me. And many others,” Minako shares. “I wanted to give comfort and courage to those who feel unseen.”

Set against an Afrobeat backdrop that gently pulses with life, “SHE” is both a balm and a beat—offering listeners a chance to move, feel, and maybe even heal.

Following her 2023 debut single “Overtourism”, this new release confirms Minako Oji’s voice as one to watch—sensitive, bold, and achingly human.

Out October 14 on all streaming platforms.
