Hilcrhyme’s classic and popular songs
Let me introduce a two-person rap unit, Hilcrhyme, consisting of TOC and DJ KATSU.
In 2009, they released “Shunkashuto” (Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter), which became a huge topic at the time, hitting number one across various charts such as ringtone rankings, Oricon, and the cable broadcast charts.
The appeal of their music lies in how catchy and easy to listen to it is, even while being rap, which won them great popularity.
Despite their catchy style, the MC TOC used to belong to a hip-hop unit called NITE FULL MAKERS and reportedly performed at B BOY PARK, Japan’s largest hip-hop event.
Now, please enjoy the music of Hilcrhyme, a group with a formidable hip-hop backbone.

No.109Hilcrhyme
If you express TOC in numbers, it becomes “109.” In this song, “109” is sung as the serial number that represents TOC.
The track presents TOC’s profile in sync with the music—covering details from the year he was born to how many years he’s been rapping.
I feel it could be a great song for getting to know TOC by listening closely to the lyrics.
Side By SideHilcrhyme
This song, whose title conveys the idea of walking alongside the listener through life, is the closing track of the seventh album, “SIDE BY SIDE,” released in 2016.
It’s a masterpiece filled with the strong conviction of a musician who feels that even if something were to happen to them, it would be enough if the songs they created could support someone.

Before singing it, TOC said it’s the most popular track on the album.
I think it’s popular because it sings about the feeling everyone has of wanting to change.

While rooted in hip-hop, Hilcrhyme’s music transcends genre boundaries with a broad musicality.
This track is a pop, melodious ballad that conveys a steadfast vow of love—365 days a year—wrapped in gentle warmth.
Released digitally in June 2024, it’s a special song commemorating the 15th anniversary of their major-label debut.
