Intergalactic Pop Supergroup, SG5, have teamed up with underground tastemaker and PC Music collaborator, umru, for the remix of their debut single “Firetruck.” umru, who has worked with the likes of Charli XCX, 100 gecs, Dorian Electra, Rebecca Black, Tommy Cash and more; has transformed SG5’s fiery single into a hyper J-pop nightclub banger.

“Firetruck” (umru REMIX) brings together two diverse artists while seamlessly  fusing different genres and cultures. umru, a Brooklyn-based Estonian-American music producer, quickly emerged to the forefront of the pop zeitgeist following his first credit (at 18) on Charli XCX’s landmark mixtape Pop 2. Merging intense, bass-heavy sounds with earworm vocals, his work has come to define and support the cutting edge of pop music. umru is signed to A. G. Cook's label PC Music who released his latest 7-track project 'comfort noise.'

Intergalactic Pop Supergroup, SG5, release their fiery new single “Firetruck,”. Produced by BloodPop [Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Madonna] and Hudson Mohawke [Drake, Pusha T], “Firetruck” marks the groups first release since Rolling Stone announced their U.S. debut in June of 2022. 

A song all about the individual flame that burns inside all of us, and a love so pure that it shines brighter than hate or bad vibes; “Firetruck” is an introduction into the SG5 universe. By embracing the power within ourselves and hyping up our girls along the way, we become the hottest versions of ourselves. So hot in fact, that the forces of evil might be terrified and immediately need to call a firetruck to cool down the fire. The members elaborate; “Our debut in the U.S. almost still feels like a dream, but we would like to do our best to make SG5 known to people from all over the world. I hope that everyone can feel the girl power and energy that radiates from this song and video, and get excited with us!”

Nylon refers to “Firetruck” as “[...] a rowdy and bold introduction to the band’s charismatic members and their immediate superstar appeal.” As the first music group officially in collaboration with one of  the World’s most recognized  IPs, you’ll see elements of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon sprinkled throughout the music video. “Firetruck” was shot out in Los Angeles and directed by Weston Allen, who speaks highly of the group; “Working with the girls of SG5 was an epic journey. “Firetruck” required extensive research; learning about the first humble water pumps of ancient Alexandria, to the fact that fire poles exist to keep horses from going up stairs. SG5 has created an empowering anthem that extinguishes negativity while also being a certified banger.”

SG5, the first ever music group officially in collaboration with one of  the World’s most recognized  IPs, Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon, announces today that they will be signing with WME for Global Representation, effective immediately. SG5 will be represented by Ben Totis and David Bradley at WME. SG5 says “We are very honored to sign with WME, a home to so many amazing artists! We can't wait to see what the future holds and are very excited for everyone around the world to hear our music and see our live performances in the future.”

SG5 announced their U.S. debut in June via Rolling Stone, and is co-managed by one of Japan's largest entertainment companies LDH Japan Inc., and Global powerhouse Three Six Zero. The group has also enlisted Grammy Award-winning songwriter and producer BloodPop® who will serve as Executive Producer and co-Creative Director of the band. SG5 consists of 5 members: SAYAKA, RURI, RUI, MIYUU, and KAEDE.

In their first international interview with Rolling Stone, MIYUU elaborated on SG5’s debut and overall goals; “Being able to collaborate with Sailor Moon is such an honor and a dream come true. I have experienced a lot as an artist in Japan, but the environment surrounding SG5 is like no other, so I’m very motivated. I hope we can show the beauty of Japanese culture through our entertainment.” Without any official music released yet, SG5’s debut intrigued and captured the attention of U.S. media such as Billboard, Hypebae, Just Jared, and more.

Spawning from the Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon World, SG5 is an intergalactic pop supergroup that protects the universe from evil, injustice and negativity. Blending Japanese talent with Western edge and an I.P. that has inspired billions of smiles, their goal is to destroy the forces of darkness with the most powerful weapon of all: music. Grounded in lore that is 30 years in the making, SG5 is a modern interpolation of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon for the new generation of the in-the-know stans, with the blessing of Miss Takeuchi herself.

Hailing from all different walks of life, these 5 women exist in the Sailor Moon universe together and heavily reference the main protagonists of the series. Members SAYAKA, KAEDE, MIYUU, and RURI all come from the girl group Happiness, which debuted in 2011; and RUI comes from her own group iScream, which debuted in 2021. By joining forces and morphing together their individual talents, SG5 and their upcoming album will be an unstoppable force.
