Masterplan is BE:FIRST's fifth CD single. It was released April 24, 2024 in 4 editions: a CD-only version, 2 versions with a DVD or Blu-ray with either concert or MV content, a special limited BMSG MUSIC SHOP edition, and bundle that includes a CD plus a trading card and trading card book.
Background and Release[]
On February 13, 2024, BE:FIRST announced their next single would be released on April 24, however rather than a title, it was only referred to as a "Concept Single."[1]
Along with the announcement of the single, SKY-HI also released a statement on a new BMSG initiative to reduce plastic waste.[2] As a first step of this initiative, with this single they will make an effort to curb bulk buying by making all retailer benefits the same and releasing related items as merchandise that can be bought directly instead of having to buy multiple copies of the CD.
On March 2, the first day at BE:FIRST LIVE in DOME 2024 "Mainstream - Masterplan" at Tokyo Dome, the single's title was announced as Masterplan and they gave a premiere performance.
The final track on the single is a solo song by JUNON. It is the first in a series of seven solos, one to be released by each member.
