Up up up, down down down
Steps are stairs and stairs are beats
Climp-clamp-clamp under my feet
Up I go, I rhyme on high
Down I go, I rhyme goodbye
Then I'm back up once again
Rhyming never gonna end
Syllables like step by step
Each one echoes with my breath
Fue plays high when I go up
Fue plays low when I go down
Beat stays constant all the way
Rhyming through my climb and sway
Up and down and up again
Rhyming is my discipline
Climbing fast, I take them quick
Rhyming thick and getting thick
Every stair another bar
I'm ascending, going far
Then I turn and I descend
Rhyming down until the end
Up and down, the motion goes
Rhyming's where the rhythm flows
Up and down and up again
Rhyming is my discipline
Steps fade, rhyming repeats, fades to silence

Last Light Lasting
KIRI
An innovative fusion of traditional Japanese instruments and contemporary hip hop. Lantern Turns features ten tracks where taiko drums, koto, shakuhachi, and biwa meet heavy 808 bass and trap rhythms. Female rappers navigate syncopated beats across styles ranging from energetic celebration tracks to introspective underground productions. From the driving pulse of Heat Rising to the ceremonial floating of Last Light Lasting, each song layers Japanese instrumentation with modern production techniques. This project explores the intersection of heritage and innovation, creating a sonic landscape where ancient sounds meet contemporary rhythm.
Artist Profile
KIRI
KIRI is a Japanese AI music artist blending the deadly elegance of the kunoichi with modern Trap & Bass. Heavy shamisen, thundering taiko, and crushing 808 bass lines form the sonic world of Shinobi Sound, a place where shadow, blade, and silence converge. Born in darkness. Gone before you blink.
