Walk It Like I Talk It

Kizuna (Japanese: 絆, lit. 'bond', stylized as KIZUИA or in all caps) is the second studio album of Japanese boy band JO1, consisting of selected songs from their previous EP singles Challenger, Stranger, and Wandering. The album was released by Lapone Entertainment into four physical editions on May 25, 2022, while the digital version was released two days prior, with Japan Hot 100 number-one song "With Us" acted as the main promotional single. It features the group's frequent collaborators, such as Full8loom, Alive Knob, Teito, Score, and Megatone as well as new participation from Lee Woo-min (Collapsedone), Justin Reinstein, Purple Night, UTA [ja], and others. To promote the album, Kizuna was preceded by two promotional digital singles, "Dreamer" and "Move the Soul", and supported by a six-day long out-of-home advertising campaign at Shinjuku Station, the world's busiest station. JO1 held two live events and participated in the KCON 2022 Premiere in Japan and MTV Live Match and went to South Korea to promote the album on M Countdown and Idol Radio. A 13-show eponymous concert tour was set to start in five prefectures on September 3, 2022. The album set a record as the group's first album to debut at number one on both the Oricon Albums Chart and Billboard Japan Hot Albums and to receive Platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ) for over 250,000 units in shipments.
