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 America Village, Osaka. Back then, to rise to the top, you needed money, violence, and trustworthy allies. It was a harsh environment where one believed, "If you're not a delinquent, you can't make it as a rapper." In such an environment, XILA began his journey as a rapper. XILA's words were the embodiment of the street's realities, dreams, pain, love, and rebellion. His raw style, which vividly portrayed the truths of the street, garnered immense support from a vast number of fans. In 2009, his burning spirit led him to a challenging situation. He was arrested and imprisoned as a member of a large-scale cannabis organization. However, this didn't break him. On the contrary, the track "Deep Green feat. CHEHON" that he created while incarcerated became a testament to his struggles. This track vividly and beautifully represents the adversities and battles he faced, resonating deeply with many listeners. XILA's rap is the raw voice of the street. His lyrics, bold like graffiti but intricately detailed, depict reality. His flow over the bassline, reminiscent of a hopping lowrider, has a profound impact that stirs the soul. XILA is more than just a rapper. He is a poet and philosopher of the streets, and his music serves as the voice of an era, reaching many. His activities will undoubtedly continue in the future. His tracks, which make listeners feel the essence of street culture and the purity of delinquent culture, stand out as a unique presence in today's hip-hop scene, making him an artist to watch.
