Mabel, Cyn, Vince Staples featured on new Pokémon 25: The Red EP

Mabel, Cyn, and Vince Staples are included on a new Pokémon 25: The Red EP, which is out today.

The three-track EP, which includes Mabel’s previously released single “Take It Home,” features Vince Staples’ “Got ‘Em” and Cyn’s “Wonderful.” Staples said this about being part of the Pokemon 25 celebration:

“I’ve always been a fan of Pokémon, so it was particularly special to be asked to take part in this 25th-anniversary celebration. I’m excited for people to hear ‘Got 'Em,’ and hope the song resonates with fans, especially those who grew up with Pokémon like I did.”

Cyn said this:

“I am so excited to release one of my favorite songs I’ve ever written, ‘Wonderful,’ in celebration of 25 years of Pokémon! This song is special to me because I feel it comments on growing pains while also emphasizing a destination of grace and a beautiful journey to it— eggs hatch when they want to or in other words, when they are ready. When I wrote this song, my newborn baby son was in the room— I can hear the influence of becoming a new mother in the music, it will always ring special for me.”

Producer ZHU will remix all three tracks for Pokémon 25: The Blue EP, which arrives later this month.

Colin Palmer, vice president of marketing, The Pokémon Company International said this about the EPs:

“The Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue video games introduced the world to Pokémon 25 years ago and we wanted to recognize that important part of the franchise in our 25th-anniversary celebrations within the P25 Music campaign. Pokémon fans will appreciate the nod to the first Pokémon video games with these EPs, while music fans will enjoy new songs and remixes from exciting artists on these dual collections.”
