Early life
George Kusunoki Miller was born in Osaka, Japan to an Australian father and a Japanese mother. He attended Canadian Academy, an international school in Kobe, in Hyōgo, Japan, where he graduated in 2012. At age 18, Miller left Japan and travelled to the United States, where he subsequently enrolled into the New York Institute of Technology and received a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree in 2016.
On 23 September 2006, Miller created his first YouTube channel, "2cool4u92". The channel's only video, which shared a name with the channel, was uploaded on 17 October 2006. In the video, which was presumably recorded by a schoolmate of his, a 13-year-old Miller breakdances in what is seemingly a school hallway. This is the earliest known video of Miller on YouTube. On 16 June 2008, Miller created the DizastaMusic channel, on which he generally uploaded sketch comedy-based videos. The earliest known video on the channel was uploaded on 19 June 2008, titled "Lil Jon falls off a table".
Miller's web-show had a significant effect on 2010's meme culture, reshaping internet shock humour and being responsible for the creation of many viral internet memes, such as "It’s Time to Stop", and most famously, the Harlem Shake craze in 2013, which helped debut Baauer’s eponymous song atop the Billboard Top 100.
"Gimme Love" is a song by Japanese-Australian singer-songwriter Joji. It was released on 16 April 2020 through 88rising, as the third single from Joji's second studio album Nectar (2020).
Composition
The track is composed of two parts. The first half, produced by Joji, is described as a "sticky pop anthem with haunting vocals", while the second half, produced by Bēkon and The Donuts, is described as "somber" and "orchestral".
