Rapper Beenzino will feature on Japanese rock band Chai’s remixed version of its third album “Wink Together,” according to his agency Beasts And Natives Alike on Thursday.

The band’s second album “Punk,” released in 2019, earned global recognition. It was named Best New Music by American online music publication Pitchfork.

The band has previously collaborated with British bands such as Gorillaz and Duran Duran and American rapper Jpegmafia.

Beenzino will feature on the band’s song titled “Donuts Mind If I Do."

“The song that Beenzino featured on was on the top of the tracklist for the original third album and received much spotlight,” the agency said. “Beenzino was offered to collaborate [with the band] as a Korean artist on this album, on which a variety of artists with different nationalities participated.”

Chai consists of four women — Mana, Kana, Yuuki and Yuna. Formed in 2012, the band released its debut album “Pink” in 2017.
