DJ KRUSH and ILL-BOSSTINO (THA BLUE HERB) are releasing a joint album, XO, on August 5, 2026, via THA BLUE HERB RECORDINGS.
The project is a first on both sides. DJ KRUSH has never made an album with a single rapper before, not once in his entire catalog. For ILL-BOSSTINO, the last time he went one-on-one with a beatmaker outside of THA BLUE HERB was his record with DJ Honda. XO sits in territory neither of them has covered before.
Main visual by cherry chill will. Tracklist to be announced. XO comes in two formats, both of which are available for pre-order now. The standard edition is a 1CD digipak pressed in Japan, with a lyrics booklet (cat. TBHR-CD-045, ¥3,850 incl. tax). The limited edition adds an instrumental disc, making it a 2CD digipak (cat. TBHR-CD-046, ¥5,500 incl. tax).
