Lyric

1v1.

Kingo

やめたくないことなら don't listen, don't quit

Everybody wanna eat, but I see nobody cooking

正誤を一方的に決めてくる奴なら一方的に無視

Do what you want say what you want

Better keep a fucking distance

All you need is patience

わかってる大器晩成でmake it

Beatの上でstandoff

Like you shall not, uh Gandalf

このまま逃げ切るran off

You will not hear “man down”

You will not hear “man down”, yeah

(1v1 戦ってるgame)

ハエがたかってる

どいつもこいつも待ってる

次のその枠狙ってる

でも聞いたらすぐ判別

明確俺のが勝ってる no shit

Take it or leave it, yeah I mean it

4eva man, like amine

Take it or leave it, yeah I’ve seen it

The scene, 360 it all changes

No scope, reach it to the ozone

Run it back, get it back, keep it going don’t stop

Rappity rap, baby bars

Eye candy but a free fall

If you wanna match in the same league

Here I see, frenemies

You’re one of the many (Many)

Left-for-dead, no safe rooms panic at the door when I'm knocking

Uh, uh, wait a minute

Murder it

Call a medic

Ice cold, infectious, so you get it

意味ない

キリない

呪いにかかってるmaybe

Baby, gone crazy

In the stu', I’m to the basics

JP Sagami original (Worth it)

号外, pass it out, Rondo (Worth it)

Better come and run it if you wanna be the top

Harder to maintain it when you know what it’s about

See me come and get it and pursue beyond the clouds

全て壊して戒めで

Better come and run it if you wanna be the top

Sandbox, anything's possible

One-mic, man-up, laughing like, Morgan

Alt F4, better forfeit

In front of masters I own get it

    Kingo

Born in Japan and raised in different parts of the world, including the United States and Cambodia, hip-hop artist Kingo has developed a distinct creative voice shaped by his multicultural upbringing. Blending this unique sensibility with lyrics written in both Japanese and English, he continues to pursue a style of expression entirely his own.

Arriving nearly three years after his previous EP, Kingo's second EP, "cheqpoint.", is a six-track project that captures where he stands today as he navigates new environments and changes in his life, while continuing to confront and pursue his own ideals. As its title suggests, the project serves as a "checkpoint" - a moment to look back on the path he has taken, reflect on where he is now, and prepare to move forward.

Rooted in club music while embracing a diverse range of sonic approaches, the EP takes on different colors through sessions with multiple artists and trackmakers. From competition and restlessness to his admiration for music, the conflicts that come with pursuing it, and his determination to keep moving forward, Kingo channels his real-life experiences into his lyrics. Together, these six tracks offer a multidimensional portrait of who Kingo is today.

Artist Profile

  • Kingo

    Born in Tokyo in 1998, Kingo is a rapper and hip-hop artist based primarily in Tokyo. Although born in Japan, his experience of moving between post-war Cambodia and the United States has shaped a distinctly international perspective and story. He continues to expand his global reach through bilingual rap in both Japanese and English, as well as collaborations with artists from overseas. Drawing inspiration from a wide range of artists and genres, including Kendrick Lamar and Funkadelic, Kingo has developed a distinctive and versatile style of expression. In 2022, a video of his band-style street performance gained significant attention on Twitter, surpassing 100,000 views. His recorded work includes "Always Around," produced in collaboration with music producer A.G.O., which has been featured on numerous official playlists across major streaming platforms. In 2023, Kingo made his debut appearance at FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL 2023, performing on the ROOKIE A GO-GO stage. In August 2026, he released "cheqpoint.," his first EP in three years.
