Emerging from Japan's vibrant alternative music scene, Vibrations brings together musicians who have each played in a wide range of forward-thinking bands. Rooted in the energy of the session scene, they fuse experimental sensibilities with a distinctively original soul and funk sound. Their latest release, "Gimmie", once again features their close collaborator Kingo, marking another dynamic double-name collaboration following their previous work together. Drawing from Afrobeat influences, the track showcases each member's exceptional musicianship - tight, expressive, and full of passion. Kingo's bilingual flow effortlessly weaves between Japanese and English, adding a refreshing groove and expanding the track's sonic landscape. The result is a tune that's both vibrant and soulful, radiating rhythm and originality.
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.
