As you are 百足 & 韻マン

This song was created by two rappers, Mukade and Inman, who met at the 15th High School RAP Championship.

Set over a laid-back track that incorporates acoustic elements, it straightforwardly expresses feelings about being true to yourself and to who you are.

The theme is like a rapper’s own way of expressing love, and the calm sound helps convey an unadorned sincerity.

Another highlight is the contrast between Mukade’s and Inman’s styles and vocal qualities—their different personalities overlap in a way that brings out the best in each other.
