In the lush, green land of Awaji Island, four young men-Seidai, Haruto, Shuma, and Towa-met and bonded over a shared dream they had in high school: "We want to raise a Hercules beetle in our classroom."As time went on, they began capturing, breeding, and selling insects, and around the same time, they discovered HIPHOP and learned to express themselves through rap.
From these two passions-bugs and rap music-was born the HIPHOP crew "Konchuu Hasling" (Konchu Hustling), who rap from various perspectives using insects as their motif.
On August 20th, Konchuu Hasling will release their debut album,"Konchu Hastling 2025", featuring 12 tracks (2 of which are CD-only exclusives). The album includes production by a diverse and talented group: IKEDA-IKERU, dhrma, SULLEN, Sharaku, K8A, Towl, MrRn, and moon undah water. Guest appearances include SILENT KILLA JOINT, ONI, BEREAL, Siryu, and TIMM.
The album offers a wide variety-from chill summer tracks to cold, hard-hitting HIPHOP bangers.
Unbound by industry constraints or conventional thinking, this release is packed with their distinctive and uncompromising style, making it a dense, original work of expression.
