- Independent (stylized in caps) is the ninth studio album by Japanese-American singer-songwriter Ai, released on February 22, 2012 by EMI Music Japan. It served as Ai's international debut following a global publishing deal with EMI. Hoping to experiment with new sounds that would expand her music beyond contemporary R&B and hip hop music, Ai worked with multiple American producers alongside long-time collaborator Uta. The final product resulted in an album combining dance-pop and R&B. Three singles were released from Independent. "Happiness," which was used in a high-profile Coca-Cola winter 2011 advertising campaign, was her most successful single since "I'll Remember You" in 2007, receiving two different gold certifications. The album debuted at number two on Oricon's album charts, and sold over 60,000 copies, outselling her previous two studio albums, Viva Ai (2009) and The Last Ai (2010). A deluxe reissue of the album was released on November 17, 2012. (en)
