With their signature rapid-fire delivery and genre-hopping beats, Creepy Nuts are putting the Japanese hip-hop scene firmly on the global map. The duo have exploded since the start of the year courtesy of their viral hit ‘Bling-Bang-Bang-Born’, which has clocked up more than half a billion plays on Spotify and YouTube, but they also have serious pedigree: DJ Matsunaga won the DMC World DJ Championships in 2019 and rapper R-Shitei was crowned Japan’s top battle MC for five years in a row.
