One thing I like about these guys, is that they don’t try to act all gangster, make out that they had a hard upbringing or even say they hate their parents (Tahiti literally shouted out his dad) The majority of them were just bored & didn’t want to fall into a regular, mundane life of being an adult. I also really enjoy their music, it’s really good music to work out to!
this is so fire bro, so many cultures in one video and what they are doing is living proof ANY1 CAN DO THIS even with the cheap stuff this made me hella inspired seriously. they are gonna make it big if they stay focused and keep grinding.
They might make it big in Asia but not anywhere else. Soundcloud rap is kind of a doomed genre and once the novelty wears off people will look elsewhere.
Yeah bro dressing cringe like transwomen and wasting your life on drugs while making meaningless music is so fire. It really is living proof that anyone can become a cringe degenerate and pretend to be black and hiphop because they have no original or independent thought of their own. I'm hella hella inspired too, like HELLA x2. It's really hard to follow the trends of pop culture and throw your life away, but it's amazing how these guys did it.
I love that at the end when it was playing the audio of each member saying what the ultimate dream would be and they ALL included each other in whatever they said. "Me and the boys go abroad.." "I just hope we can get a house and all live together.." "I hope we all stay friends, stay together..." "Hopefully we make it so we can all be ballin..." etc. So jealous of what they got together!
I'm 36 never been to Japan and slowly teaching myself japanese I have always loved the culture but I will probably never get the chance to go because I'm at the lowest part of my life I'm like one step away from homeless on the streets but I love music and making music and studying different things all things. But teaching myself japanese has been a hurdle I been trying to jump for years even if I never really get to use it I believe I was Japanese in a past life.
I was reading an article about this group and while their music isn't my taste of genre, I came away impressed after watching this and one of their videos. They are talented, artistic and pursuing their passion.... doing it their way. And I'd party with these peeps anyday. Gotta wish em nothing but the best. As an outsider to this, I gotta say I appreciate it! No matter whether you're into a certain type of music, it's important to still experience it sometimes and you'll find new perspectives while supporting artists who are pursuing a passion and delivering quality material.
I grew up around Atlanta, the city that birth trap music hip hop pioneers and culture icons, so I'm intrigued by what these kids are creating in Japan. It's interesting seeing all the different influences of Black American hip hop music, Black English (aka. "AAVE"), and Black American fashion in this underground culture of Japan. I had no clue it was this popular out there. I definitely got to check out this scene when I visit Japan one day.
Hip hop is just too big atp. But if you look at what all the kids who would’ve been punks or something 20 years ago are listening to it’s all influenced by the people who really pushed the sound in the 2010s. Like chief keef, yung lean, future, lil peep x and all the other SoundCloud kids. Also edm and hyper pop it’s all a mashup. Traditional hip hop or gangster rap will always have a spot in the US and other places but now those sounds are incorporated into more artistic avenues. It’s just the way culture works same w blues and r&b.
Cultural Exchange between US and Japan has been huge in the underground electronic scene for the past 10 years or so. The story of Vaporwave is a wild one. Invented in the West, then popularized in anime circles which mixed the genre with old Japanese music samples, which then led to the revitalization of City Pop in Japan. See also what happened to Future Bass and Nu Funk, which started with acts like Flume in the West and now has a very cutesy anime aesthetic because Japanese producers got a hold on it. Now it's an extremely popular subgenre of music, being used in things like Sonic Mania. The rate of East-West cultural exchange is crazy r n thanks to online music platforms.
i remember Espeon back when they were still on the island! we only hung out once back in 2016. we walked around Waikiki just bummin' around smoking grape flavored cigarettes. dude's hella chill, and a great skater too ! i also remember feeling a bit awkward 'cause our only interactions were online, but i always thought they were cool. so fuckin' happy to see them succeed! hella blessings to you and your crew!!!
There was amazing cinematography in this video and its use for this hyper pop subject was a great one. I think it always interesting seeing how different slang words and lingo from then”west” or US and rap, permeate other cultures. Also interesting to see the different subcultures that emerge from young people in Japan, and they all seemingly have similar values in that they defy the status quo and collectivist ideal of Japan. This hyper pop, harujuku culture, and probably many others as well. It’s aesthetically pleasing to see these colors pop, and it works because they live in the city, so the aesthetic is very coherent and a beautiful thing to see. Thank you for this.
Props to them for not following the traditional full studio production and making this happen themselves. I too taught myself how to use fl studio. I respect them, as it is a difficult journey to learn. Respect
Went to high school with Tahiti and talked to him a couple times about music because we both listen to the same shit. Super dope seeing him go far with it.
Never seen so many Japanese people talking in English this well. Hell, the total amount I've heard in my life I think is still less than this guys on this video alone. The internet really is breaking borders. I really like how Japan has this constant swing of culture. They exhaust all their mainstream stuff, which in return creates a new wave of non-conformists. Edit: I just realized that a lot of them are not native to Japan, that explains a lot lol
This was the inspiration I needed to give it a shot. I have such a passion for music but always loose inspiration fast cause it’s hard to do it alone but sometimes that’s where you gotta start. Much love from the USA
this kind of group is very inspiring, anyone can make music and become successful with many people around them, even if their music isn't especially my type of music I would enjoy knowing a group like this.
I often feel confined with my creativity and expression of self, like people see me as a serious person who studies and gets good grades so the crowd of people who are considered "different" "ragers" "weird", etc... often don't think they can be friends with me. And although I have friends I really like, they're completely different than me in like style and shit like that. I have friends who like anime and k-pop and shit, but the type and what they like within them are completely different than me so I feel a bit excluded no matter where I am. When I find people like Starkids online, I feel accepted. Like there are people who are like me that just want to fuck around, express themselves, and that are really into music, fashion, and just being. What they said talking about the crowd of people that go to their concerts I can completely relate to because when I'm with my friends or people I can't be 100% me, listening to Starkids and finding spaces of people that like the same shit as me honestly helps me so much. I feel like I'am the most me when I have my headphones on listening to different types of music and pursuing creative things like photography and art, so when I see groups like Starkids doing exactly that, it really makes me happy and accepted. Thank you Daze for doing a video on Starkids.
@@zshakur yeah I was about to say. Starkids started being them first and the community found them. When you don't see your niche/community in the world you just got to express yourself and openly be you first and the right people and energy will find you.
The US is not a good place for this, everyone here judges you and they put limitations on what is cool and what is not. I shocked the f out of people with my fashion choices when I was in Uni there and was so happy to break the generic mold
Man this video was inspiring, great job Jeremy. Gave me goosebumps in certain spots - reminded me vaguely of the brockhampton documentary series. Like you're watching something sacred begin to form, pretty amazing stuff
A group I’ve never heard of from a genre I’ve never really paid attention to from a channel I’ve never watched a video of. The algorithm can really be a great thing sometimes. Great video i hope they get the attention they deserve
pretty dope seeing how far the influence of black/hip hop culture has extended, this is mad cool, hopefully these guys will collab w some bigger American artists someday that'd be cool
@@forbesdharma hip hop is a direct by product of black culture, if you've ever seen any documentary on the evolution of hip hop you'll notice it's mostly black ppl apart of the conversation as we pioneered rap music, early rap also delineated black experiences (gang violence, racial profiling, etc) this is most obvious in early 90s rap from NY It's common knowledge black ppl invented rap music and to try and argue otherwise is a waste of time. You can always do ur own research on the matter as well just as u where able to make this obtuse comment Also I'd suggest u ask urself why you made the comment?
@@blackrpatz you have completely misconstrued what I'm saying. Mf jusy putting words in my mouth. Never said that black culture wasn't the pioneer of rap, but even so the race of the pioneers has nothing to do with their influence. Your basically saying that they got their influence from biggie smalls at this point lmao All I was saying was that their influence is from hip hop (or other categories), and not black culture, they are two completely separate things, majority of the hyper pop scene in amercian is white people soooooo what are you gonna say now?
@@forbesdharma "never said that black culture wasn't the pioneer of rap" so you concede that black ppl pioneered hip hop, therefore one can use the terms black/hip hop culture interchangeably?

there's something very internally shifting about this group. if we consider the fact that there are billions of people across the world, all with different cultures and ideas, creating and expressing themselves in unique and interesting ways. Starkids are a testament of this. can't wait to see how far yall go
STARKIDS give me so much inspiration and joy. It's not often that I get to experience joy through other people but I live vicariously through their love for anime, hiphop, street kid culture. It's such a dream and a lifestyle. I hope they continue to keep doing what they are doing and maybe one day I'll get to meet them and hang out with them. Love you guys
5:09 Reanimating Renton Thurson (Eureka Seven) 😆 They act like they were deprived of freedom lol But I actually like this group and hoping they would collaborate with 4s4ki. It's cool to see the underground scene in Japan allows people to use their phones during concerts/battles.
this group seems really cool :) i vibe with their music - on another note, I want to go to japan so bad because it just looks amazing. also goddamn all of their girlfriends were so cute LMAO
i rlly hope hype and fame wont influence their music, cus i feel like as soon artists get a lot of fame, their music style often changes. so just stay as u are guysss!!
I accidentally found their song Star Island forever ago, loved it, but forgot to save it, now this documentary popped up. So happy to see them thriving and getting to see more of them is awesome
i just found out about STARKIDS and i absolutely love them!! watching this.. they seem like such fun, genuine people, and im wishing all the best for them!!
I make music and fashion in DTLA. I think this group is amazing. come to LA. we support all of this!!!! you have a studio space with a fashion studio all in one at your disposal.
This was really good..No words to describe talented people who make music from the heart that one day hopefully will inspire generations...I love Japanese culture Asian Culture as a whole..This for me was so inspiring to watch and see..From a creative stand point..thank you..!
I'm 36 never been to Japan and slowly teaching myself japanese I have always loved the culture but I will probably never get the chance to go because I'm at the lowest part of my life I'm like one step away from homeless on the streets but I love music and making music and studying different things all things. But teaching myself japanese has been a hurdle I been trying to jump for years even if I never really get to use it I believe I was Japanese in a past life.
Dang, I know the video is mainly about Starkids but I'm just focusing on the cinematography of Dazed. I wonder what camera do they use and if they used a filter at like 6:55 or no. Great quality even during low lights...
This shit is so dope. Just being able to do wtvr tf you want and not letting shit hold you back. Its super cool that they have such a close friend group bcs its rlly hard out here for artistic kids who havent found their people yet. keep fucking goin!!!!!!

I’m starting to get into hyperpop lately and producing. I’m very much new to all this but the passion is definitely there. This video is inspiring af 💗
Man as an American I love Japan's music culture. It really seems like people are more willing to follow whatever direction you want to go musically, whereas in the US you mainly have to put out something that aligns with what people already want to hear.
not true at all, you can put out any music you want in the US and tour with it, just gotta have connections and also zero expectations and keep grinding, these guys have 7k ig followers, they aren't big, they'd just be a step above playing basement shows here in the US, they just have a video about them because both hyperpop and japan = easy clicks
i don't think that's true at all. we have a divrse music culture in the US, hyperpop exists here too lol. if you're referring to what hits the billboard hot 100, that would happen with any country, including japan. these guys aren't big artists in japan, it's the same over there.
japan's music culture is directly inspired by most music in the US especially genres made by black americans, only reason they were able to go in said direction is because of the artists that came and created music before them.

It's such a dream and a lifestyle. I hope they continue to keep doing what they are doing and maybe one day I'll get to meet them and hang out with them. Love you guys
Just discovered them and now I’ma fan 4L 🌟 can’t wait to see them shine more!
I remember seeing Tahiti's music on my YT feed .. awesome to know such a detailed take on their group ..
Awesome cinematography too !
yes more exposure to them, they deserve it
facts
5:09 Reanimating Renton Thurson (Eureka Seven) 😆
They act like they were deprived of freedom lol But I actually like this group and hoping they would collaborate with 4s4ki. It's cool to see the underground scene in Japan allows people to use their phones during concerts/battles.
their stories are already inspiring. I love their energy and sound💜 great vid.
ガールフレンドにメイクしてもらったりして微笑ましい♡Tahiti手先器用なのギャップ！普段見れない一面が見てれ嬉しい最高の動画！
xavier wulf reference is what got me. hes got taste.
this group seems really cool :) i vibe with their music - on another note, I want to go to japan so bad because it just looks amazing. also goddamn all of their girlfriends were so cute LMAO
i rlly hope hype and fame wont influence their music, cus i feel like as soon artists get a lot of fame, their music style often changes. so just stay as u are guysss!!
I accidentally found their song Star Island forever ago, loved it, but forgot to save it, now this documentary popped up. So happy to see them thriving and getting to see more of them is awesome
ほんとみんな生まれてきてくれて
出会ってチーム組んでくれてありがとう。俺の人生は彼らのおかげで変わったよ
最高すぎ！！
この動画だけで半年くらい生きていける

star kidsはマジで日本を表してると思う
日本にも本場のhiphopでカマしてる人も
いるけど日本のhiphopとして本場にカマせると
したらstar kidsの音楽は刺さりやすい
マジでどこにでもいるのな。
Hip Hop is really influencing the 🌎
i just found out about STARKIDS and i absolutely love them!! watching this.. they seem like such fun, genuine people, and im wishing all the best for them!!
The guy with one speaker and 0.75 heaphones might be my spirit animal.
I make music and fashion in DTLA. I think this group is amazing. come to LA. we support all of this!!!! you have a studio space with a fashion studio all in one at your disposal.
Not my style of music but, I respect the hell out of the DIY spirit these kids have. Love from NYC.
This was really good..No words to describe talented people who make music from the heart that one day hopefully will inspire generations...I love Japanese culture Asian Culture as a whole..This for me was so inspiring to watch and see..From a creative stand point..thank you..!
I'm 36 never been to Japan and slowly teaching myself japanese I have always loved the culture but I will probably never get the chance to go because I'm at the lowest part of my life I'm like one step away from homeless on the streets but I love music and making music and studying different things all things. But teaching myself japanese has been a hurdle I been trying to jump for years even if I never really get to use it I believe I was Japanese in a past life.
Keep your head up, speak your life into existence
Hats off to Rubier, the edits and filmmaking were🧨
Shout out from California! Keep up the great job guys!!! 🔥
Dang, I know the video is mainly about Starkids but I'm just focusing on the cinematography of Dazed. I wonder what camera do they use and if they used a filter at like 6:55 or no. Great quality even during low lights...
This shit is so dope. Just being able to do wtvr tf you want and not letting shit hold you back. Its super cool that they have such a close friend group bcs its rlly hard out here for artistic kids who havent found their people yet. keep fucking goin!!!!!!
They're so cool and the production quality of this video is incredible
THEY ARE LIVING THE LIFE, I might aswell start trying some new things with mine...
Love their sound and the message they wanna spread with their music. Can’t wait to see what they do next
This is really cool! This inspires me, keep working hard fellas!
cant wait to meet my people through my music too. its crazy how this pops up on my recommended right now
It’s crazy that they talk the same as me, even though I’m in America
No. I agree with you. When you think about it, there will be similar tones in all countries no matter where you go.
This is amazing to see. Star Kids have already made their mark on the music scene and im eager to see all the magic you guys can make!!
あーーー絶対ライブいきたい…‼️‼️
STARKIDSダイスキです👍👍
THIS IS CRAZY
YOU’RE FUCKING CRAZY LOVE U MIRAIE

Benxni on his scooter is my spirit animal. This whole group has a lot of talent, hope they break into the American scene so I can see em live some day
How do some of these guys speak English so well? Especially the ones that didn't live in NA?
My mans only has 1 working speaker and 1 working headphone and still produces and mixes their songs so well lmao
Criminally underviewed video
I’m starting to get into hyperpop lately and producing. I’m very much new to all this but the passion is definitely there. This video is inspiring af 💗
thank you Jeremy for this raw, visceral journey across different cultures 🙏🏻
only a matter of time until they make it mainstream!
出会えてよかったライブ行けて幸せ
STARKIDSは確実にシーン作った！
YABAI⭐️
They remind me of (sic)boy and BLOOM VASE. Both are japanese artists to carry a similar vibe
that tread beat at around 10:35 is hard
Do you know the beat @16:02 Shiiit was a Banger!
Man as an American I love Japan's music culture. It really seems like people are more willing to follow whatever direction you want to go musically, whereas in the US you mainly have to put out something that aligns with what people already want to hear.
not true at all, you can put out any music you want in the US and tour with it, just gotta have connections and also zero expectations and keep grinding, these guys have 7k ig followers, they aren't big, they'd just be a step above playing basement shows here in the US, they just have a video about them because both hyperpop and japan = easy clicks
i don't think that's true at all. we have a divrse music culture in the US, hyperpop exists here too lol. if you're referring to what hits the billboard hot 100, that would happen with any country, including japan. these guys aren't big artists in japan, it's the same over there.
japan's music culture is directly inspired by most music in the US especially genres made by black americans, only reason they were able to go in said direction is because of the artists that came and created music before them.
video shot/edited gas af props fr
This shit is so gas I don’t have the slightest clue what going on but I fw the movement heavyy ¡!
I F with this bro! This is so Fire!! All about vibes and I am jumping on this ride
their passion to music is so contagious and i love it!
