Artist Profile

• week dudus

  week dudus is a 24-year-old rapper from Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture. With his unique flow and low voice, he stands out with his "freaky" style that is not bound by genre or format. He grew up listening to N.W\.A and Shabba Ranks from the age of 1, and started rapping in the fifth grade of elementary school. He has won MC battles, but left battles in high school to focus on producing music. In 2019, he released a two-disc album "XD", and attracted attention for appearing in Red Bull's microphone relay project "RASEN" and advancing to the finals of ABEMA's "Rap Star Birth" Season 4. In 2021, he released the epic 50-song album "VEGA". In 2023, he released his eponymous EP "KAZATO", and in December, he released his first full album in about three years, "n00b", and his collaboration with his younger brother REMY FOOL, "OH SHIT!!", was also a hot topic. In 2023, he will also collaborate with the long-established British brand KANGOL, strengthening his connection with the fashion scene. The cover art and artist photo for the album "n00b" were created by popular manga artist Santa Inoue, and a limited edition collaboration T-shirt was also sold. His unique production style, which involves building a freestyle flow and adding words later, exudes the instinctive appeal of a "player" rather than a "writer." He is an artist to watch, who will continue to expand the scene beyond the boundaries of hip-hop with his increasingly genre-less expression.
