KSUKE is more than just a vocalist. He’s actually a music producer, a musician, and a DJ, too! Though he started as just a DJ, KSUKE’s career in the music world really took off in 2015 when he signed on with Warner Music International. Having a major record label behind him meant that KSUKE was able to focus on being a music producer, both of original music as well as creating remixes. One of his most successful ones at the time was a track called “Breath Again,” which he made alongside k-pop star and ex-member of F(x), Amber. From there, KSUKE began to produce music for some commercials and music festivals. He has also made remixes with Western artists like Chris Brown, along with Japanese artists like MAN WITH A MISSION, RIRI, and more.

Not long after that, KSUKE entered into the gaming world. KSUKE appeared in a panel at Tokyo Game Show, and since has produced some tracks for the rhythm game BEATMANIA from KONAMI, as well as working alongside Japan’s eSports team SCARZ to create their official supporters song in 2019. After that, KSUKE had a foot in the door for the anisong world. He joined a band called KORONANAMOREMOMO. It was born from the j-rock band MAXIMUM THE HORMONE, the voices responsible for some of the most memorable anime openings of the 2000s - Death Note. Even though KORONANAMOREMOMO only debuted in 2019, they already played at several major Japanese music festivals.

That brings us to 2020, and KSUKE is the talent behind “Contradiction.” The God of High School is based not on a manga like many anime, but on a South Korean webtoon, and has many South Korean people on the team helping bring the anime to life. It’s fitting that “Breath Again,” the song that really made KSUKE famous, was made alongside a k-pop star - and now, his anisong fame is with a South Korean-based anime!
