Singer-songwriter
d4vd continues
to expand his career strongly. After releasing her debut album WITHERED,
participating in the Crunchyroll Anime Awards 2025 and
collaborating on the soundtrack of Arcane, she now surprises with
the official video clip of "Always Love", a stellar
collaboration with Hyunjin, a member of the renowned K-pop
band Stray Kids.
This new
visual work, presented exclusively by Crunchyroll, stands out for its
impressive anime-inspired aesthetic, combining captivating
illustrations with the emotion of the song. The song debuted at the end of June
and was born from the friendship that both artists began on social networks,
before meeting personally at a Stray Kids concert in Los Angeles.
Collaboration
that unites two creative worlds
D4VD is no stranger to the world of
anime. The artist has expressed his passion for this medium on multiple
occasions, integrating references from series such as "Death
Note" and "Tokyo Ghoul" in his songs and covers. In
addition, she has participated in the podcast The Anime Effect on
Crunchyroll, where she delved into her creative process and her love for
Japanese animation.
For its
part, Stray Kids has left its mark on the world of anime. The
group performed the opening themes for both seasons of Tower of God,
and Felix, another of its members, collaborated on the title track
of the second season of Solo Leveling alongside iconic J-rock
singer LiSA.
