TATSUAKI’s Profile

TATSUAKI made his debut at the Japan Beatbox Championship back in 2012 while still in high school, going on to secure a place in the top 4. He was crowned champion in 2016 in both the solo and tag divisions—the first Japanese artist to achieve the feat. He also reached the semi finals at the Asia Beatbox Championship two years running, ultimately ranking second worldwide in the tag division. Setting his sights on ever bigger stages, he has gone on to appear in the tag category at Grand Beatbox Battle—again, a first for a Japanese beatboxer. Nowadays you’re just as likely to find TATSUAKI hosting events as you are to find him participating in contests around Sapporo and beyond, where he continues to wow audiences with his unique new school stylings.
