Kento Nakajima’s Request at Solo Debut: Forget Sexy Zone?

At the much-anticipated solo debut press conference

Kento Nakajima (30), who graduated from Sexy Zone (hereafter referred to as “SeKZo,” now “timelesz”) in April this year to pursue a solo career, announced during a recent group press conference that he will release his debut solo album, N / bias (Non-bias), on December 25. He also revealed plans to hold his first solo concert, KENTO NAKAJIMA 1st Live 2025 N / bias, from January 17 to 19 next year at Tokyo’s Ariake Arena.

After leaving Sexy Zone, Nakajima began his solo activities in April and established a fan club. He stated, “I wanted a place where I could immediately give back to my fans,” and initiated the production, aiming to release it on Christmas, December 25. While he had previously engaged in solo activities through the HITOGOTO Project, writing and performing theme songs for lead dramas, this marks the first time under his own name.

The album will be released by Sony Music, which is home to artists such as YOASOBI and the popular band King Gnu. Nakajima stated, “I have a goal of doing many anime theme songs, and Sony is the best at making that vision a reality. My friend Ayase from YOASOBI is also with Sony, and I’ve learned a lot from our conversations. It feels like it was inevitable that I would end up here.” While the press conference offered valuable insights into Nakajima’s future vision, it was revealed that the organizers had made a certain request to the media behind the scenes.
