Information

After the release of her fourth studio album, Step, Meg was reportedly back in the studio recording new material for future releases. Her 4th single under Universal Music J (13th overall), "Precious," was released on September 17, 2008. Produced by long-time collaborator Yasutaka Nakata, it became her most successful charting single on the Oricon Weekly Charts, charting at the 17th position.[8] Afterward, Meg went on a brief break and recorded her one night show, "Meg Premium Live 'Party'" at the Shibuya-AX concert hall in Shibuya. This would later be released as a live DVD special on February 25, 2009.[9][10] On December 26, 2008, Meg's Universal website announced her 5th single under Universal Music J (14th overall), "Freak." Described by her website to have a "rockin'" new sound, this single marked a departure from her work with Nakata and she was instead produced by the English band Hadouken!.[11] "Freak" was released February 11, 2009.[12] On April 1, 2009, Beautiful was officially announced with track listings and a teaser cover on her official website,[13] and on April 6, 2009, the album was officially announced on her Universal website, complete with covers, full track listings, details, and album samples.[14]
