SB19’s Josh Cullen and breakthrough rapper Al James join forces in “Yoko Na”

P-Pop star Josh Cullen and prolific rapper Al James come together in “Yoko Na,” their collaborative new single released under Sony Music Entertainment.

Lyrics-wise, “Yoko Na” expresses the words left unsaid in the middle of a relationship fallout. It acknowledges how a kind of love that was once full of life and promises could suddenly fall apart even after trying one’s best to stick it out until the very end. 

The song bears the hallmarks of a summer anthem, thanks to its infectious rap verses from both artists, an inescapable chorus, and a vibrant arrangement that blends modern hip-hop and R&B sensibilities with emotional flair. 

Brian Lotho, who co-produced the track with Josh, captures the essence of the lyrics with steely defiance, adding an extra layer of authenticity by injecting unique elements such as the sound of bottles shattering, tables flipping, and other little sonic details that evoke irreparable brokenness.

Get Ready for an Adrenaline Rush: Road House Hits Prime Video

Prepare to be swept into the heart-pounding world of Road House. Director Doug Liman, known for his iconic works like The Bourne Identity, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Jumper, and Edge of Tomorrow, helms this ambitious project, breathing new life into the beloved cult classic and offering audiences a thrilling reimagining of the iconic tale. Set to premiere on Prime Video on March 21, this modern take on Road House promises to be an unforgettable experience.

Road House follows the journey of Elwood Dalton, a former UFC fighter navigating the gritty underworld of bouncing. Dalton's background as a former UFC fighter frequently leads him to rely on violence to resolve conflicts. However, beneath this tough exterior, he remains committed to delivering justice to those in need, even if it requires bending the rules.

With Liman's passion for anti-heroes, the character of Dalton shines through in his approach to Road House, infusing the story with depth and complexity. "Here's a guy who is so gentle and caring and, at the same time, so freaking lethal. He's just a fantastic character," Liman explains.
