Classic Blues
XILA, Benizakura
ふと思い返せば
泣きたなる日もあった
そして月日が経って
過去の傷も今じゃ そう…
想い出にそっと口づけを
ボトムの酒なら渇かない
溢れそうになるほど激しいMemories
Street Dream, The Melody
塀の外に出た2012
久しぶりに吸う娑婆の空気
仲間達からの放免祝い
まだムショボケしてて小便臭い
帰って来た大阪の街
欲望が渦巻いてるクソ大都会
誰が何と言ったって知るか
ナックルズ載ったアメ村の実話
ポストに届くムショからの封筒
汚い字でいついつの出所
帰って来たら速攻飯行こうや
次ちゃんとした金 手にしようや
遊ぼうとしてあいつに電話
電源切れててつかない連絡
乏しい稼ぎ牢屋に寝泊まり
時代の流れと出入りは激しい
とめどない人の移り変わり
まさにこの街映した形
今は遠く離れても
イカれた想い出にグラスを掲げろ
想い出にそっと口づけを
ボトムの酒なら渇かない
溢れそうになるほど激しいMemories
Street Dream, The Melody
ふと思い返せば
泣きたなる日もあった
そして月日が経って
過去の傷も今じゃ 笑える話
上手く行かず怒りの矛先
誰かに向けていた
立ち向かうことでしか
痛みを消せなかった
想い出にそっと口づけを
ボトムの酒なら渇かない
溢れそうになるほど激しいMemories

Artist Profile
XILA
It all began in 2004, in Amerikamura, Osaka. At that time, to rise up, you needed money, power, and reliable comrades in a fierce environment where "you couldn't be a rapper unless you were a delinquent." It was in this environment that XILA began his career as a rapper. XILA's words embodied the street reality, dreams, pain, love, and rebellion itself. His style of raw expression of street truths garnered tremendous support from many fans. In 2009, his burning spirit led him to a place of trial. He was arrested and incarcerated as a member of a large-scale cannabis organization. However, this did not break him. On the contrary, "Deep Green feat. CHEHON," which was born during his incarceration, became a powerful track that vividly conveyed his struggle. This track expresses the hardships and battles he experienced in a raw yet beautiful way, becoming a work that deeply resonates with many listeners. XILA's rap is the authentic voice of the street. Like graffiti, it's boldly painted yet meticulously expresses reality. His flow riding the baseline has the gravity of a hopping lowrider that stirs the soul. XILA is not just a rapper. He is a street poet, a philosopher, and his music reaches many people as the voice of the era. His activities will surely continue. His sound, which conveys the essence of street culture and the purity of delinquent culture, is a unique presence in today's hip-hop scene, and remains one to watch in the future.
