荷物は夢たくさん詰め込んだボストンバック
譜面は読めないけど音色聴こえるロードマップ
強がってたけど 怖かったんだよ ほんとは
片道切符握りしめ向かう こっからスタート
5万しか入ってない 財布の中
飛び出して来たんだ あのド田舎
「かましてやる！」って意気込んだ背中
なにも知らない現実 ただのバカ
6畳2段ベッドシェアハウス
あの小さな部屋から始まる
甘い幻想と苦いリアル
誰でもない 今ぼくが歌う
BitterDays ガキの頃
夢見た光景が
大人になって小さく見えた
憧れた街 僕たちはもう
BitterDays あそこから
辿り着いた少年は
夢の場所へ 今も歌う
書き足していく 未来予想図
BitterDays 今もまだ
走り抜くその先は
それぞれ違う 約束のPlace
まだ間に合う 進むMy Way
BitterDays 今もなお
聴こえるMelodyは
Brandnewday 綴ってくフレーズ
君の元まで届く日まで
最初のバイトは美装屋だった
西新井から通った用賀
朝4時半に起きて向かった
1時間以上の移動 過酷だった
金が足りなくて借りた社長に
借用書 氏名 母印記載し
帰り道 涙 弱音こぼし
描いた未来は夢物語
いつの間にか 夢よりも金
救いようのない ほんとバカタレ
“明日でもいいか" そんな言い訳
並べて逃げてた マジで情けねぇ
そんなぼくも今 手にマイク
何ひとつまだ諦めていない
見えるだろ？今 ぼくの背には
たくさんのLoveとエールが
BitterDays ガキの頃
夢見た光景が
大人になって小さく見えた
憧れた街 僕たちはもう
BitterDays あそこから
辿り着いた少年は
夢の場所へ 今も歌う
書き足していく 未来予想図
BitterDays 今もまだ
走り抜くその先は
それぞれ違う 約束のPlace
まだ間に合う 進むMy Way
BitterDays 今もなお
聴こえるMelodyは
Brandnewday 綴ってくフレーズ
君の元まで届く日まで
時間を切り売りして収入から
人生切り売りして回収
歌詞と夢を売る仕事
いつか高級車で帰る地元
こんなぼくでもなれた職業
君なら絶対なんとかなるよ
呆れられても諦めるな
なにごとだってなせばなるさ
諦めたら試合終了
暗闇の後は光刺すぞ
「僭越ながらこれ応援歌」
だってぼくたちそこに向かう冒険家
少年少女 大志抱け
かすり傷なんて大したことねぇ
ボストンバック 詰め込んだ夢
叶えた今 もう荷物いらねぇ
BitterDays ガキの頃
夢見た光景が
大人になって小さく見えた
憧れた街 僕たちはもう
BitterDays あそこから
辿り着いた少年は
夢の場所へ 今も歌う
書き足していく 未来予想図
BitterDays 今もまだ
走り抜くその先は
それぞれ違う 約束のPlace
まだ間に合う 進むMy Way
BitterDays 今もなお
聴こえるMelodyは
Brandnewday 綴ってくフレーズ
君の元まで届く日まで

Bitter Days
AMANOJACK
Just as the title "New Name Tag" suggests, this record marks the beginning of a brand new chapter in AMANOJACK's story.
Built upon the foundation of the distinct "AMANOJACK-ness" established in his previous "The Rhyme Book" series, this record pushes the envelope even further with bold word choices and adventurous soundscapes.
It opens with "Still a Rapper", a return to roots. Then comes "FLOW Shotoku" featuring ISH-ONE, showcasing full-throttle skills, followed by the bittersweet nostalgia of "School Love", the introspective and rain-soaked "AMEOTOKO", and the emotionally powerful "Minamo", featuring H.R.K & Otaru.
The EP closes quietly with "Bitter Days", a track only AMANOJACK-who has endured and grown through hard times-could have written.
Six tracks that boldly present who he is right now, like holding up a new name tag to the world.
This is the third chapter of his story-real, unfiltered, and asking what lies beyond just a name through the art of rap, unbound by genre or expectation.
Artist Profile
AMANOJACK
AMANOJACK began his musical journey in 2007, stepping onto the stage for the first time as an MC BATTLE contestant. He went on to perform at numerous events and live shows across Kochi Prefecture, solidifying his presence in the local scene-most notably by providing entrance music for the Kochi Fighting Dogs baseball team. In 2011, he traveled to the United States, where he gained international experience through music video shoots, collaborations with local artists, and live performances. By 2016, he was actively participating in festivals and events throughout Kochi and was featured as the representative of Kochi on the nationally released hip-hop compilation CD JPN 47 in August. In 2017, he relocated from Kochi to Tokyo to expand his artistic reach. After a five-year hiatus, AMANOJACK made his long-awaited return in June 2022 with the release of his debut single, Puff Puff Verse, accompanied by both a Short Music Video and Lyric Video. In August, he followed up with his second single, Back in the Days-his first ballad, which also garnered attention with its Full Music Video. He maintained a steady pace of releases, dropping his third single Sing it in May 2023, California Summer Story in July, and Hitorinoyoru in August. In October, he released In a dream feat. SHIMPEI, which met fan expectations and more. August 2024 saw the release of his first EP, The Rhyme Book Vol.1, which charted at No.13 on iTunes Store's Hip-Hop/Rap Top Albums. Just two months later, in October 2024, his second EP, The Rhyme Book Vol.2, followed and ranked No.18 on the same chart. In 2023, he launched official merchandise with a line of T-shirts, and in October 2024, released a second wave featuring an original towel. And his momentum only grew stronger. In November 2024, he released Still a Rapper, a deeply personal track that laid bare his feelings about life as a rapper. Then in January 2025, he dropped FLOW SHOTOKU feat. ISH-ONE, a dream collaboration with his long-time idol ISH-ONE, shaking up the scene. In April, the Music Video for Still a Rapper was released, drawing fans into an even deeper world. Most recently, AMANOJACK teamed up for the first time with female artists H.R.K and Otaru on Minamo feat. H.R.K & Otaru, stepping into a new realm of expression and sensitivity. AMANOJACK embodies unstoppable evolution. In 2025, his name is set to echo even louder. And the next move he makes-will shake your soul.
