Creepy Nuts is a dynamic Japanese hip-hop duo whose creative fusion of rap and DJing has earned them a significant following in the Japanese music landscape. The duo consists of rapper R-Shitei and DJ Matsunaga, who came together in 2013, blending their unique styles into an electrifying entity that quickly made waves in the country's music scene. Their name, a blend of "creepy" and "nuts," reflects the group's willingness to push boundaries and their commitment to originality.

The duo's signature sound combines sharp, thought-provoking lyrics with innovative beats and scratches, capturing the complexities of urban life and youth culture in Japan. Their rise to fame was marked by their victory in the prestigious televised rap battle contest "BATTLE OF THE YEAR JAPAN" in 2016. Since then, Creepy Nuts has continued to release a string of successful tracks, such as "二度寝," "Bling-Bang-Bang-Born," "ビリケン," and the emotionally charged "パッと咲いて散って灰に." With each release, from instrumentals that showcase their musical craftsmanship like "ビリケン (Instrumental)" to live performance renditions like "のびしろ - From THE FIRST TAKE," they solidify their status not just as musicians but as storytellers for a new generation.
