Career

[edit]

Inabakumori's account began publishing music in 2016, debuting with the song Secret Music (秘密音楽) using Kaai Yuki.[2] However, he claimed that MichouP (Japanese: 視長P), an account that began producing music in 2011, is his alias.[3] His content surged in popularity some time after the release of Lost Umbrella (ロストアンブレラ)[4] in 2018, when the song was used widely on TikTok. He published his first album ANTICYCLONE (アンチサイクロン) in 2019.[1]

The videos accompanying early songs featured his own art of Kaai Yuki until the release of "Lost Umbrella", when he collaborated with illustrator Nukunukunigirimeshi, with art featuring his character Osage-chan.

Inabakumori has spoken about his respect for Wowaka, with many of his songs being influenced by his works.[7]

On October 6, 2023, inabakumori released the song Electricity Forecast (電気予報)[8] as a part of the crossover between The Pokémon Company and Crypton Future Media called "Project VOLTAGE".[9]
