(For information on his work as a vocaloid producer, please see ハチ.) 米津玄師 (Yonezu Kenshi), born on March 10, 1991, is a singer, songwriter & illustrator. He has released vocaloid music under the name ハチ (Hachi) since 2009. His official home page is at Reissue Records. On May 16, 2012, he released his debut non-vocaloid album, diorama, using his real name. He was picked up by a major label (Universal Music Japan) about one year later, and released the single, サンタマリア (Santa Maria) on May 29, 2013. On October 23, 2013, he released the single MAD HEAD LOVE / ポッピンアパシー (MAD HEAD LOVE / Poppin' Apathy). Along with all of his releases, he created the illustrations for the covers. On April 23, 2014, his second full album was released entitled YANKEE. On October 8th, 2015, he released his third full album, entitled Bremen. Featuring the singles Unbelievers, Fluorite, and Flowerwall, 米津玄師 tried to move away from his previous sound. In an attempt to make a universal album everybody could relate to, he tried to remove himself from the album as best he could. In 2017, he released the album BOOTLEG, featuring a collaboration with DAOKO. The record won Album of the Year at the 60th Japan Record Awards. In 2018, Yonezu released his now iconic single Lemon, which was a chart-topping success and helped solidify his place in Japanese pop history. From here, his songs became mainstays on the charts, and he went on to compose for artists like Arashi (嵐) and Masaki Suda in the following years. Notably, he wrote the song Paprika (パプリカ) for use during the 2020 Summer Olympics. His next album STRAY SHEEP became the best selling album of 2020 in Japan, and was the third bestselling album worldwide that year, according to the IFPI. Yonezu continued to release songs in the early 2020s that were used for a variety of commercial purposes, such as KICK BACK for the anime CHAINSAW MAN and Chikyuugi (地球儀) for the 2023 Studio Ghibli film The Boy and The Heron. His sixth studio album LOST CORNER was finally released in 2024, featuring all of the singles since his last record. Yonezu is planning to embark on his first ever international tour in spring 2025.
