I did manage to find one YouTube video by them and will look for others now using their Japanese name.

Insist is pretty findable on youtube by their Japanese name (韻シスト), and by "Insist" on iTunes and Amazon. Osaka Monaurail is pretty hot, too--they backed Marva Whitney on her comeback album in 2007.

I plan to celebrate some of our our country's "independence" searching for whatever I can find about and by them online. I also have a book on Japanese hip-hop somewhere that I should probably crack open--maybe there's something about them there, too.Garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06115441682219034891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1431617529154334054.post-53664599318154147742012-07-03T15:29:02.871-04:002012-07-03T15:29:02.871-04:00Very nice!
