Bilingual rapper Kingo, who is fluent in two languages (English and Japanese) and will be performing at FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL 2023 in the "ROOKIE A GO-GO" slot, has completed his memorable first EP "Bandages".

The album is a compilation of songs that Kingo has been making since 2022, and is a culmination of his turbulent days, including his street live performances, working with music producers he met for the first time, and his appearance at Fuji Rock.

The title "Bandages" means "bandage" in English, and Kingo says, "For me, making music is a healing process. Making the songs on this EP was like putting a bandage on a wound I had. Starting with M5 "Always Around," the songs on this EP are songs that reflect his own diverse life experiences and the career he has built up as an artist today.

Artist Profile

  • Kingo

    Japanese Hip-hop/Soul artist Kingo, crafts his music as the vehicle to explore his diverse life experiences, and desire for personal growth - using his meditative nature as the driving force in his pursuit of self-actualisation. Although he was born in Japan, Kingo spent the majority of his formative years in post-war Cambodia, and the United States - leading to a distinctly international perspective, and a form of expression that is uniquely his own. Kingo marries his personal, intimate lyrics with a razor-sharp flow that is characteristic of his dynamic, exhilarating sound. He illustrates his versatility by seamlessly alternating between English and Japanese - artisan-ally evoking a sense of familiarity in the listener as he invites them into his world. Dropping his guard and opening up, he hopes of reaching those facing life's challenges with his music. Kingo aims to soften the soul - sparking important heart - to - hearts that lead to a shared sense of companionship, mindfulness, and a renewed spirit to persevere through difficult times.
