Background
A few months after the end of the Dream Tour,[1] Ai announced in May 2023 that she would be embarking on another concert tour, titled the Respect All Tour.[2] With 30 performances in Japan, the tour expects to have 80,000 people attend with the easing of COVID-19 prevention rules in Japan.[2] Ai's first single of 2023 was announced, titled after the tour.[3] Ai revealed the song samples Bob James' "Shamboozie" to "liven up the 50th anniversary of the birth of hip hop".[4] Within that same month, Ai performed live in Hiroshima during the 49th G7 summit and announced a global tour to take place in the future.[5][6]
