Dance unit Lead is back after 11 months. They come back with a funk beat single, SPEED STAR. Their last single "GIRAGIRA ROMANTIC" was released August 2009. Like that single, this single has five versions. Each member has their own version as well as a group version. The single will drop July 28, 2010.

While Lead isn't in the spot light, they do keep busy acting in dramas and modeling. The group will have their UPTURN 2010 summer �tour in August, hitting five cities: Nagoya, Osaka, Fukuoka, Sendai and Nagano.
