Revision as of 22:30, 1 January 2019

Do me a favor is Suzuki Airi's solo debut album. It was released on June 6, 2018 in two editions: one regular and one limited. The song "DISTANCE" was pre-released digitally on May 3, 2018.[1]

The album features "dance side" tracks inspired from her time in ℃-ute and "band side" tracks inspired from her time in Buono!. Three tracks are collaborations with all-female bands SCANDAL and Akai Ko-en, and reggae artists SPICY CHOCOLATE. Suzuki is also credited as lyricist for the first time for "#DMAF", as well as a co-writer for "perfect timing".

The Limited Edition Blu-ray includes music videos and performances from her solo live.

Her collaborative song with Akai Ko-en "Hikari no Hou e" was selected as the June 2018 ending theme song for Chiba TV's morning talk show Shakitto!,[2] and "DISTANCE" was selected as the June 2018 ending theme song for TBS' music charts show CDTV.[3][4] "start again" is the commercial song for Chiba Bank's "Minna Chousensha" commercial starring Suzuki from July 2018.[5][6]
