Background and release


Ai previously released her tenth studio album, Moriagaro, in June 2013. In October 2013, it was revealed the album would be reissued, titled Motto Moriagaro.[1][2] Two of the bonus tracks previously were used in TV commercials prior to the release of the album reissue. "Get Your Hands Up" was used as the Ya-man Dancing EMS CM song and "Run Free" was used as a song promoting Reebok Reebok Classic.[3]

Similar to the original album, recording took place mostly in Tokyo, as well as in West Hollywood, Atlanta and New York City.[4] The album was primarily produced by longtime collaborator Uta, who Ai has worked with since 2009 and various American producers.


Tours


Ai's Moriagaro Tour began in October in Kanagawa, Japan, and included 33 dates. The final concert was held on December 18, 2013, at the Nippon Budokan in Tokyo.[5]
