Nenashi

Singer / Rapper / Producer. Project by bilingual artist, Hiro-a-key, who grew up in Japan and the United States. To eliminate stereotypes and preconceptions about Asians sending R&B/soul music to the world, Hiro-a-key began to perform in English, the common language, without disclosing any identities such as nationality or face, hoping that people would listen to pure music. Hiro-a-key, who has traveled to more than 20 countries including the US, Canada, Brazil, Bahamas, Argentina, South Korea, Hong Kong, Japan, Thailand, Kazakhstan, France, the UK, Germany, and Switzerland, has experienced different cultures and identifies as a "rootless wanderer," naming himself Nenashi. In addition to composing the music for an advertising campaign by the audio brand "Beats," which featured professional soccer player Ritsu Doan, Hiro-a-key has actively expanded his horizons by collaborating, producing, writing lyrics, and doing choruses for various domestic and international artists such as Halia Beamer, a TikTok star from Hawaii with 7.2 million followers, Chara、Kato Miliyah、Aile The Shota, Sincere, LHRHND, THE SUPER FLYERS, SMOKIN'theJAZZ, maeshima soshi, and Snowk. Nenashi a.k.a. Hiro-a-key has been active as a soul singer who freely uses singing, rapping, and beatboxing to express a new texture with his exceptional vocal range and groove. Even after revealing his identity, the journey of this attention-grabbing multi-artist, whose works are being shared by music enthusiasts around the world, continues.
