Hmm... 3Li¥en

By Nori·August 21, 2026

I was scrolling Apple Music early and saw 'KILLA' sitting at #3 on The New Asia playlist. Who is 3Li¥en? She’s a 25-year-old Japanese-Nigerian rapper who calls herself an 'alien' and spits in English, Japanese, and Kansai dialect. After blowing up on the 'Team Tomodachi (GALS Remix),' she just dropped her debut album High Energy featuring Vingo and Bark. A Blasian gyal shaking up Tokyo's status quo with this much energy? Yeah, my radar is officially buzzing. You need to pay attention.
