The world famous Japanese fashion designer Tomoaki Nagao (a.k.a. Nigo) has many successful ventures in pushing pop culture. In the musical world, he is the founding member of the Teriyaki Boyz group (best known for their international hit “Tokyo Drift”), and has collaborated his DJ/production skills alongside hip hop legends such as Kanye West & Pharrell Williams.
However, outside of music, Nigo’s biggest successes were in his business ventures. Creating the Billionaire Boys Club and A Bathing Ape (Bape) clothing lines, Nigo’s fashion designs were what really cemented his name into history as a modern fashion culture icon.
In 2022, we are seeing Nigo return to the musical scene. Taking more of a curator approach, similar to DJ Khaled, Nigo has amassed some of mainstream hip hop’s best talents (Pharrell Williams, Tyler the Creator, A$AP Rocky, Gunna, Pusha T, Kid Cudi, Lil Uzi Vert, A$AP Ferg, Pop Smoke, etc) as well as brought back legendary groups out of retirement (Teriyaki Boyz, Clipse).
Here is our review of Nigo's 2022 compilation album, executively produced by the Neptunes, I Know NIGO!
Date Recorded: April 3rd, 2022.
