“Chain Ga Utau” drapes Yuki Chiba’s laid-back flow in opulent textures, weaving references to rare cask whiskey and 100-carat ice over a hip-hop and trap-inflected beat. The title, translating to “The Chain Sings,” loops hypnotically through the lyrics, reinforcing its shimmering central motif. The music video lingers on Chiba flaunting custom jewelry, its weight and brilliance echoing the track’s fixation on material wealth and impermanence. Rooted in Chiba Prefecture, the rapper strides through contemporary hip-hop with a signature fusion of Japanese cultural nods and modern production. His collaborations include producers like Jaycen Joshua, shaping a distinct sonic identity within Japan’s rap scene. Music video directed by : Kazuki Ito
