Now Viewing: usseewaTag type: Copyright うっせぇわ The song's title is a shorter way of saying Shut Up! It is a Ado_(singer)'s first solo original song and establishes many of her singing trademarks such as her frequently switching between higher-pitched operatic vocals and gravelly, and in this song's case, angry rock-style growls. It was written by Vocaloid producer Syudou, who Ado is a big fan of. The song's video stars Ado's character avatar who, in this video, wears an eyepatch. The song is a rebellious social critique of traditional Japanese social expectations with lyrics written and sung in a sarcastic tone. The song and video were released on October 23, 2020, and made an instant splash on the music industry. The song peaked at number 1 on Japan's Billboard Hot 100 and reached over 100 million plays on Billboard Japan. It became a popular song to cover for many virtual youtubers and utaites. This popularity has notably attracted controversy from older generations, particularly parents who were concerned about their children imitating the song. Ado has stated that she views her performance of the song as a way to relieve her audience's anger, voicing their discontent in their place so that they can live positively. Thanks to its popularity, social critique, and Ado's young age when the song debuted (she only turned 18 1 day after the song debuted) it has developed a 'voice of a generation' reputation. The music video's most famous for the shot of Ado's avatar snarling "Ha?" directly at the viewer, which cover artists have mimicked with they own avatars.
