Emerging singer-songwriter Reira Ushio releases her powerful new single “déjà vu” today, February 18, accompanied by a music video premiering at 9:00 PM (JST). The track serves as the pre-release single and emotional centerpiece of her forthcoming EP, HB2U, arriving February 25.
Positioned as the lead track of the EP, “déjà vu” dives deep into the internal conflicts, lingering confusion, and unresolved pain that Ushio bravely confronts within herself. Through candid songwriting and emotionally resonant lyrics, she transforms vulnerability into a compelling artistic statement.
The song traces a journey of embracing even the most unexplainable emotions — ultimately arriving at self-acceptance and affirmation. This message forms the emotional backbone of HB2U, a project that marks a significant milestone in Ushio’s artistry. For the first time, the EP draws directly from her personal experiences and authentic feelings, making “déjà vu” a symbolic and thematic anchor of the release.
Musically, the track is built on a groovy mid-tempo arrangement, elevated by Ushio’s distinctive and captivating vocal tone. The combination of rhythmic drive and emotional depth leaves a lasting impression, reinforcing her growing presence as an artist to watch.
“déjà vu” is now available worldwide on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music. Fans can also catch the official music video premiere tonight, bringing the song’s introspective narrative to life visually.
With HB2U on the horizon, Reira Ushio signals a bold new chapter — one defined by honesty, growth, and fearless self-expression.
