It's been revealed that MIYAVI will release two albums (currently untitled) this year.
On January 29, MIYAVI wrapped up his eighth world tour at Blue Note HAWAII in Honolulu, Hawaii. During this concert, he announced that he would be releasing his first albums after transferring to LDH JAPAN.
He commented, "I've started working on the albums with the same flow and momentum of my latest album 'NO SLEEP TILL TOKYO.' Every time I release an album, I immediately want to start working on another one right away, but as soon as I start working on it, I feel the pain of labor. I have great respect for all mothers in the world. I am working on this album concurrently with my tours, acting, and fashion, but both my production teams in Los Angeles and Tokyo are working hard to push it forward. I'm finally done with the first half, now going into the second half. There are many songs that are filled with my personal feelings. I will do my best that it will reach a lot of people." Details on one of the two albums will be revealed on February 14.

LONDON — Renault shares hit six-year lows on Monday after a media report that Nissan has accelerated secret contingency planning for a potential split from the French carmaker, the latest sign that the downfall of former boss Carlos Ghosn is roiling the 20-year alliance. At 1027 GMT, the shares were down 3.7%, languishing at the bottom of Paris' CAC 40 and the pan European STOXX 600 index. The plans include war-gaming a total split in engineering and manufacturing, as well as changes to Nissan's board, the Financial Times newspaper reported on Sunday citing several sources. Nissan's contingency planning has ramped up since the dramatic escape of Ghosn, the former head of the Renault-Nissan alliance, from Japan in late December, it said. The tie-up has been in management turmoil since Ghosn's arrest in Tokyo in November 2018 on allegations of financial misconduct, which he denies. He was awaiting trial in Japan when he fled to Lebanon. "We firmly believe the relationship between (Renault and Nissan) and hence the Alliance is broken and is likely beyond the point of repair," Evercore ISI analysts Arndt Elinghorst and Chris McNally wrote in a note on Monday. They have an 'underperform' rating on the French car company. Renault was not available for immediate comment.
