JAGGLA

"Evidence" - the latest track dropping from the streets. XILA links up with JAGGLA, two raw hustlers turned MCs, to deliver a blistering takedown of today's fake rap game.
In an era where any wannabe can claim the throne through streaming platforms, most are just carbon copies of what they think a rapper should be. But "Evidence" cuts through the noise with authentic street narratives from two MCs who've lived the life they spit. From dealing to doing time - every bar drips with real experience, elevated by TACKER's haunting hook.
While fashion rappers flood the scene, this joint questions what true street culture means. No hollow battle cries here - just raw chronicles backed by years in the trenches, challenging today's hip-hop landscape.
From the back alleys to the spotlight, these two veterans deliver an unfiltered confession and a stark message to the culture. This is Evidence - a testament to keeping real hip-hop alive, straight from the underground.

Classic Blues" is the cry of a soul released from the captivity of the past, created by Benizakura, XILA, and producer MACD. Having re-entered the music scene after her release from prison six months ago, Benizakura's voice has a bluesy depth and unique melancholy, and her powerful expression blends beautifully with the hip-hop rhythm. The fusion of Benizakura's bluesy emotional expression and the dynamic beats of hip-hop is overwhelming to listen to.

XILA also plays an important role in this song. His lyrical talents add depth to the lyrics of "Classic Blues," and his own past experiences lend truth to his lyrics. XILA's performance embodies his growth and change, marking a new high point in his musical career.
The song depicts how Benizakura and XILA have overcome adversity in the past and have grown so much that they now laugh at their tales of hardship. They express their thirst for freedom beyond the bars of prison in their songs, showing a strong will that is no longer bound by anyone. It gives listeners a positive force as well.

The quality of the music video further accentuates the profound message of the song, and MACD's production shows their skill and maturity, reaching a level that is out of the ordinary for the music industry. The visuals and lyrics match their past experiences and passion for music, providing truth and conviction to the listener.

As Red Cherry enters a new chapter in his musical career, expectations for his future endeavors continue to rise. And the future of XILA is sure to bring a breath of fresh air to the music world, and their revolutionary musical journey has only just begun. Expectations for their future are now too high to pass up.

SAMURAI SOULJAH", this song encapsulates XILA's uncompromising faith, his indomitable spirit, and his path-breaking passion. Lyrically, the theme of the song is a straightforward expression of determination to face challenges and surpass oneself, which is a true symbol of the modern samurai spirit.

The music video for the song also highlights the underlying core of the chivalrous man, which is to keep one's face straight, to help the weak and to discourage the strong. The dramatic scenes performed by the chivalrous actors enhance the power of the song and invite listeners to enter its worldview.

SAMURAI SOULJAH" is not just entertainment, but a guide to life's triumphs; XILA's words are the seeds of strength and self-belief that will take deep root in the hearts of all who hear them. This song is a reminder, a reminder, and an encouragement to all people living in today's society.

"BAD NEWS" sharply cuts through the darker side of society, relentlessly exposing the contradictions of modern society. The song is a sarcastic critique of the news we secretly enjoy, depicting the misfortunes of others; XILA straightforwardly describes how the proliferation of social networking sites destroys people's lives, while BIC highlights the cruelty of a society that ridicules the pain of others. TAKURO then appeals to the audience not to be so moved by BAD NEWS and not to lose the kindness of people that is inherent in them.
More than just a superficial critique, this song questions the moral sins that each of us commits in our daily lives, mirroring the modern man who is excited by the misfortunes of others in the shadow of social networking sites and hungry for malicious media coverage. This song is more than just music; it is a powerful message about issues deeply rooted in our society.

CHEHON

"FUKAMIDORI" is not just a song.
Hidden behind it is XILA's past, an experience from when he was arrested as a member of a large-scale cannabis cultivation organization. The incident was, at the time, among the largest cannabis-related cases in the country.

Inside prison, he penned down the lyrics capturing this intense experience. Even after his release, he continued music production with many producers, yet this song never saw the light of day. However, destiny had something in store for him.

During a production meeting with his old friend from his teenage years, MACD, and CHEHON, the song's existence once again garnered attention. At that moment, everyone present felt as if they were struck by lightning, irresistibly recognizing the importance of the song and the essential message it needed to convey to the world.

Now, as many developed countries are moving towards the legalization of cannabis, XILA, CHEHON, and their peers are deeply concerned about the cannabis situation in Japan.

This song candidly expresses the pain and assertion of XILA, who was arrested for believing in the potential of cannabis, and the unwavering true intention CHEHON vested in "green", transcending the flow of 17 long years.

"FUKAMIDORI" is one of the few songs that candidly captures contemporary Japanese social issues and embodies the spirit of hip-hop, that is, the will to "break the status quo".
