■Gk.id
Born in 1995, from Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture.
In 2014, he began his career as a member of the hip-hop crew "BAD HOP," which he formed with childhood friends from his hometown during his junior high school years.
BAD HOP disbanded after their final solo concert, "THE FINAL," held at Tokyo Dome on February 19, 2024.
On February 9th of the same year, BAD HOP's final album, "THE FINAL Edition," was released digitally, and tracks such as "Day N Night (feat. Gk.id, guca owl & KEIJU)," "Locker (feat. Gk.id, Tiji Jojo & YZERR)," and "Lonely Child (feat. Gk.id)" received high praise and garnered immense support from many listeners.
After BAD HOP disbanded, he began to focus on his solo career, not only featuring on other artists' works but also venturing into acting. He appeared in the AbemaTV drama "Metropolitan Police Department Narcotics Control Division MOGURA" (starring Hannya), where he showcased his strong individuality in film and television with his inherent charisma and realistic acting ability.
Armed with experience nurtured in southern Kawasaki, often referred to as one of Japan's leading ghettos, he expresses a realistic street worldview through his lyrics and excels at melodic flows. His unique style resonates with US trends, giving him an overwhelming presence in the scene.
This artist continues to innovate the Japanese entertainment scene, constantly challenging themselves in music, video, and even newer fields.

In 2025, they will release the album "HOMUNCULUS" containing 21 tracks and hold a club tour across 22 cities nationwide.
During their five-month club tour, they also performed at festivals and other events across the country, and with each live performance, they made a name for themselves throughout Japan.
He is hailed as the most successful and breakthrough rapper by both artists and listeners in 2025.
His collaboration with fellow Wakayama rappers "ENEL" and "HARKA" on the song "GUNSO WALK" became a viral hit that swept the scene.

In 2024, the song "Runway" from his second album "Matsuri" attracted attention not only from listeners but also from other artists, and the following year, he made a name for himself in the scene with IO's "Spotlight Remix feat, Kohjiya, Tete".
In addition, he has collaborated with numerous other artists, including DJ KANJI ("Celebrate feat. MIKADO & Tete"), Kohjiya ("Ma Boyz (feat. MIKADO, Gk.id & Tete)"), and Tiji Jojo ("Trust Me (feat. Tete)").
Since 2026, he has been signed to VERETTA SOUNDS, a label run by IO, and released the mini-album "Purple Game." His unique style, which combines hard rap with delicate vocals, has garnered significant attention.
