Feel the Vibes is the fifth studio album by Japanese hip-hop dance group Lead. It was released two years after their previous studio album, 4, and five months before their first compilation album Lead Tracks ~listener's choice~, released in August the same year.

"Drive Alive" reached No. 14 on the Oricon Singles Chart, but the others failed to break the top twenty, peaking at No. 27 and No. 20 respectively. Feel the Vibes was released as a standard CD, not carrying a CD+DVD counterpart. However, the music videos for "Drive Alive", "Umi" and "Stand Up!" were later released on the compilation DVD Lead Movies 3 (stylized as Lead MOVIES3) on August 6 alongside Lead Tracks ~listener's choice~. The album would also be given a limited edition release, which came with a photo book.
