Japanese rapper Dabo will be making his return to the music scene with his new album �HI-FIVE.� It is the first solo release for the rapper in almost five years. The promotional single from the album, �TEST Mi feat. RYO the SKYWALKER,� will be released on Chaku-Uta cell download on August 11th, with full PC download on August 18th.

Reggae singer RYO the SKYWALKER will be featured on this track as well as the older �Deppatsu Shinkou.� The song will feature production by HAZIME and DJ WATARAI and should be an exciting crossover between reggae and hip-hop genres. Dabo says the title is special and suggestive and definitely has a double meaning for the two singers, each representing their own style of music.

No track list is out yet for the comeback album, but this is definitely a release for Japanese urban music fans to keep an eye on!
