Hilcrhyme

Originally formed as a duo, Hilcrhyme is a hip-hop act hailing from Niigata. They made their major debut in 2009, and much of their early output leant towards orchestral pop, punctuated by the romantic lyrics and catchy choruses dreamt up by rapper TOC. Hilcrhyme effectively became TOC's solo project in 2017, when legal troubles compelled DJ KATSU to part ways with duo's label.
