Jpop Watch - Koda Kumi's New Album Details Revealed

That's right! Koda Kumi has finally revealed the details of her new album. With barely a month to go before it's release, this quick announcement has caused a stir in the JPop community, leading everyone to rush to get their favorite artist's album on lockdown before it's March release. Let's get ready for Walk Of My Life.

The new album titled Walk Of My Life comes out March 18, giving Kumi just barely a month to do promo, but I've seen her do crazier things. Though not a lot about the album is known, we do know that as per usual, there are several versions of the album planned for release, and we also have the track list.

As for versions, we have the normal CD, the CD+DVD containing music videos of all of her singles so far and making of videos for a few of them, and a DVD+Bluray containing the same material as the DVD. Each version has it's own cover, each more beautiful than the next -- meaning I might need to buy this album a few times. My poor wallet. There is also a Japan-only fan edition containing a DVD (I believe) of a special live event.

The track listing is as follows:

01. Introduction
02.Dance In The Rain
03. Lippy
04. Mercedes
05. Like It
06. House Party
07. Dance
08. HOTEL
09. Gimme U
10. You can keep up with me
11. MONEY IN MY BAG
12. PIECE IN THE PUZZLE
13. Fake Tongue
14. Sometimes Dreams Come True
15. LIFE so GOOD!!
16. WALK OF MY LIFE

It looks like her smash hits "Hotel" and "Dance In The Rain" are present, as well as B-Side single "MONEY IN MY BAG". The rest of the album is unknown. While many fans were not happy with her last album, coming into a more mainstream pop sound, honestly hope that this album keeps on track with it's singles, giving us a more vocal, less RnB version of Koda Kumi.

Aside from this news, we did get a small preview of the title track, "Walk Of My Life", which is a slower ballad. I could totally get into it.
