It's All Me, Vol. 2 (stylized IT'S ALL ME VOL 2 ) is an extended play by Japanese-American singer-songwriter Ai . It was released on February 24, 2021, through EMI Records , as a follow-up to It's All Me, Vol. 1 (2020). Ai primarily collaborated with western producers and longtime collaborator Julian Le.
The lead and only single "Not So Different " was released in November 2020 with a remix release featuring Awich in December 2020. "Hope" was released in January 2021 as a promotional single.
Background and release [ edit ]
When I [wrote Not So Different], I hadn't decided to put this song on "Volume two" [...] At that time, the Black Lives Matter movement expanded, and [I ] decided to put [it ] out now. I always want[ed ] to send a message like this, but often I can't put out a song unless the timing is right.
