They built a gate, said I can't cross
Said the cost, the cost, I can't afford the cost
I looked at the gate, looked at my hands
Thought: hands can move, hands understand
Ran at it full speed, no hesitation
No prayer, no negotiation
Shoulders hit the wood, it cracked
I'm on the other side and I'm not coming back
Gate down, walls down
Every "no" is a sound
I break what blocks me
Nothing stops me
Someone said I was too short
Too slow, too loud, ran out of sport
I said: watch my season change
Watch what happens when I rearrange
December was the trial, January's the fire
February I'm higher
March I'm untouchable, April I own
May I'm grown, June I'm shown
Gate down, walls down
Every "no" is a sound
I break what blocks me
Nothing stops me
I came, I saw, I didn't ask
I moved, I broke, I'm past
It's done

Peak Season
KIRI
Muscle Mind is a 10-track album blending traditional Japanese instruments with contemporary hip hop. Created with the KIRI preset, it features female rap over dynamic beats that fuse taiko, koto, shamisen, and shakuhachi with trap and boom bap production. The narrative follows a journey from dawn training through rivalry and competition to ultimate achievement. Each track balances aggressive 808 bass and sharp hi-hats with delicate traditional sounds, creating an intense yet contemplative sonic landscape. From lo-fi introspection to hard-hitting trap, this album captures the tension between discipline and creativity, making it essential listening for fans of experimental hip hop and Japanese cultural fusion.
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.
