A Heartwarming Christmas from Rachel's ohayoumadayarou

In a delightful surprise for music lovers, Rachel, part of the rap duo chelmico, is set to unveil her new solo project titled ohayoumadayarou. Together with the talented producer ESME MORI, Rachel has created a festive gem that is bound to resonate with fans. The new track, titled Bokura Dake no Merry Christmas feat. lilbesh ramko, will be available on December 5. This release follows the recently announced EP Sokoni Nai Mono, which dropped on November 21.

This upcoming Christmas song captures the essence of warmth and simplicity, promising to bring comfort and joy in a season that celebrates togetherness. Featuring the rising star lilbesh ramko—who is making waves in the hyperpop and digicore scenes—the collaboration brings a fresh perspective to a holiday classic. Rachel’s soothing vocals lead the hook, beautifully complemented by lilbesh ramko's emotionally charged rap verses, creating a perfect blend of sound.

Moreover, the track features contributions from Shin Sakiura on bass, further enhancing the emotional depth and groove of the song. Together, they bring to life a vision of a “humble Christmas,” depicting an everyday scenario infused with love and warmth. The collaboration showcases the collective talent of these artists, resulting in an unforgettable listening experience.

The artistic visuals accompanying this release are crafted by Asuka Wakita, who draws inspiration from the lyrics that mention a snow globe. The artwork encapsulates the song's themes of quiet warmth, making it a fitting representation of the music.

Starting today, fans can Pre-add or Pre-save the track on various streaming platforms. It’s an excellent opportunity for listeners to stay ahead and indulge in this cherishable holiday melody.

Additionally, mark your calendars, as Rachel is set to perform at the two-man live event JUST RIGHT!! vol.23 alongside Makoto Sakagawa on January 29, 2026. The concert will take place at Aoyama Tsukimiru Kimi Omofu, starting at 6:30 PM, with ticket prices set at ¥4,000 in advance and ¥4,500 on the day.

Rachel expresses her excitement about the creation of this song, sharing, "We started making this track a year ago on December 24, 2024, and I was hoping we would be able to release it by this year's Christmas! Now, a year later, collaborating with lilbesh ramko and having Shin Sakiura on board has made it a warm and wonderful experience. I hope this song becomes a new Christmas classic."

Producer ESME MORI comments on the creative process, saying, "My aim was to express a quietly warm Christmas without anything unnecessary added. Thanks to Shin and Ramko, we achieved something truly beautiful, and I hope this song continues to be enjoyed at Christmas for years to come."
