    Verbal is a real OG. He from the Teriyaki Boys. That’s why he had the little bell intro when his cypher started.

    Awich is known as the "Queen of Japanese hip-hop".
    Awich's stage name is short for "Asian wish child" and is a tribute to her Japanese heritage.
    Awich raps in Japanese, Okinawan, and English, and is known for her seamless transitions between languages.
    Awich's musical career began in underground clubs in Okinawa, Japan, and she released her debut EP, Inner Research, in 2006. She moved to Atlanta that same year and released her debut album, Asian Wish Child, in 2007. In 2020, she signed with Universal Music Japan and released her major-label debut album, Queendom, in 2022.
    Awich was born Akiko Urasaki and grew up in Okinawa. She moved to Atlanta for college and married an American man who was murdered in a shooting. She has a daughter named Toyomi.

    Hey bro', great reaction. FYI, all of those on this remix are legends from Korea and Japan. Alko has been around about 16 years, Palo Alto (Korean) about 19/20 years in the game, Awich (Okinawan/Japanese)18 years in the game, Jay Park (Korean American, 2011). People sleep on the fact that Japanese hip hop has been around since 1983. I know because I was stationed in Sasebo in 83' and there were a handful of clubs doing open mike nights. Do some research, it is fascinating how long they have been in the game overall. they are right behind the U.S. in terms of longevity, and they respect the craft too.

    Jay Park is a Korean-American rapper. He signed with Jay-Z's roc nation . I advise you to see his work. He makes good music. He is like Chris Brown in singing and dancing and like Kendrick in rapping. His R&B album will be released on 08.10.2024. The album includes a collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign and YG and P-lo he has song featured with wiz khalifa and hit-boy and 2 chainz he has freestyle in sway in the morning and LA leakers he is talented and living legend in korea
