TOKYO, JAPAN, 13 July 2026 – BALLISTIK BOYZ from EXILE TRIBE has officially released their brand-new single, “Do Don PA!!”, available digitally starting July 8. The seven-member group has thrilled fans by confirming that the track serves as the first preview of their upcoming EP, “BLAST”, set to drop on September 16.
While their April EP, BEAT, offered a mature, passionate exploration of romance, “Do Don PA!!” and the upcoming BLAST EP strip away that emotional polish. This new era showcases a grittier, unfiltered side of the members. Instead of pretty words, the music tackles inner conflicts, unglamorous effort, and the sweat-soaked days of their long road to victory, delivered through raw language and heavy, high-velocity sound.
This fierce artistic evolution builds upon a legacy of record-breaking success for the group. Their self-titled debut album made history as the first album by an artist to reach No. 1 on the Oricon Weekly Album Ranking. The group simultaneously dominated the industry by topping the Billboard JAPAN Top Album Sales, Billboard JAPAN Hot Albums, and Spotify viral charts, establishing them as a dominant force in the global music landscape. Their global reach grew through a six-month residency in Thailand, chart-topping collaborations with Southeast Asian stars like Gulf Kanawut, and headline performances at major events including the MUUJI Festival in Bangkok and the Japan Vietnam Festival. Building on this momentum, they launched their “IMPACT” Asia Tour and most recently held “BALLISTIK BOYZ LIVE 2026 BBZ IN TPE ~PERFECT YEAR~” at Legacy Taipei on April 12.
YOSHIYUKI KANO (YOSHI) shares his thoughts on the shift in direction, highlighting how the new track is built for the stage: “We’ve created another exciting, high-energy track just like our song ‘PASION’! It has an EDM vibe that’s guaranteed to get the crowd fired up at our live shows, and I can already imagine having an amazing time performing it together with all of the BALLY’S. The dance choreography is incredibly cool, and it’s a song that’s just as enjoyable to watch as it is to listen to.”
“Do Don PA!!” acts as a straight-to-the-heart statement of intent, symbolizing a new phase for BALLISTIK BOYZ as they charge into their summer activities like a gust of wind. The single drops on the exact same day the group kickoff their BALLISTIK BOYZ LIVE TOUR 2026 “BEAT BLAST Z”, which officially begins its run across Japan starting July 8 and will continue through August.
“Do Don PA!!” is available now on all major global music streaming platforms. The full EP “BLAST” will officially launch on September 16, 2026
