Review by Hannah Morley

Hero by Monkey Majik is a sensational album that features a diverse range of musical styles and influences. The album is a unique blend of Japanese and Western music that showcases the band's versatility and creativity.

The album opens with the upbeat and catchy "Alive," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The songs "Change" and "Gravity" showcase the band's ability to create powerful and emotional ballads, while "Island" and "Tokyo Lights" display their upbeat and energetic side.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "If," which features the Japanese singer-songwriter Ohashi Trio. The song is a beautiful duet that showcases the vocal talents of both artists and highlights the band's ability to collaborate with other musicians.
