Creepy Nuts – rapper R-shitei (‘R-rated’) and DJ Matsunaga – have found fame with the viral hit Bling-Bang-Bang-Born, the No 1 song on Billboard Japan’s mid-year chart for 2024.
“The track turned out well, and it was a fresh challenge that brought out a new side of us as well,” says Matsunaga, while R notes, “I looked to the original lyrics of Dua Lipa’s Illusion and participated in the world it depicted, letting the illusionist in me appear in the lyrics that I wrote.”
“[The remix] is precisely us, and it’s also a new side of us that was brought out because the song was Dua Lipa’s ‘Illusion,’” say the duo. “It’s in both English and Japanese but turned out smooth; we hope you enjoy it.”
Dua added: “Be sure to listen to the remix by these two amazing talents.”
Dua was recently in the news after selling out two nights at Wembley Stadium. She will play the iconic venue on Friday 20 June and Saturday 21 June 2025, as part of her Radical Optimism tour, named after her latest album. The singer is taking her tour around the world, but her only other UK date so far is one at the Royal Albert Hall on 17 October this year.
Taking to Instagram to share the incredible news, Dua posted a video of herself saying: “You’ll never guess what just happened… Two nights sold out at Wembley!”. Tickets for the first show at Wembley Stadium sold out in minutes. The news follows the star’s triumphant headline performance at this year’s Glastonbury festival/
