KUROMI and Ado Release Collaboration Song DND feat. KUROMI
KUROMI has been running as an artist project since 2025, and the release puts a Sanrio character and a professional vocalist on the same track rather than in a character-song arrangement.

Sanrio's KUROMI and singer Ado have released a collaboration song, "DND feat. KUROMI," on Friday, September 25, 2026. DND stands for "Do Not Disturb," and the song is a self-affirmation track about ignoring outside noise and other people's values. KUROMI offered the collaboration to Ado directly. Kanata Okajima and monii wrote the lyrics, and Johnny R, monii, Ari, and KIRA share composition credits. Universal Music distributes it.
"DND feat. KUROMI" arrived on Friday, September 25, 2026, at 0:00, through Universal Music. KUROMI made the offer to Ado, and the two trade vocals on a song built around lines that push back on other people's expectations, including "What even is 'normal'?" and "I am me." The lyrics are credited to Kanata Okajima and monii, with composition by Johnny R, monii, Ari, and KIRA. A collaboration visual with Ado in twin tails paired to KUROMI's black hood is out alongside the announcement.
