NEW VIDEO!!!! "THE MC" Directed by Ryoji Kamiyama
Ever since the beginning of the carreer as an MC, RYUZO has performed in many influential activities as MAGUMA MC's (the rap group he first formed). He was the only MC from Kyoto who participated in the legendary japanese 12 inch single "OWL NIGHT", and performed as front acts for most of the US hip hop artists such as RAKIM, NAS, REDMAN, COMPANY FLOW, BUSTARHYMES, CAMP LO, NICE & SMOOTH, GANGSTARR, DMX, BLACK STARR and many more, visiting the west area of Japan. In 1998 he formed a group called "GREEN FORCE CREW" with a crew from Osaka, DESPERADO and organized the biggest parties in Osaka. In 2001, a group called "YOUNG GUNZ" was formed by MAGUMA MC's (Kyoto), M.O.S.A.D. (from Nagoya), and OZROSAURUS (from Yokohama), and recorded a song on Ozrosaurus' first album, "ROLLIN' 045". In 2003, a full album by MAGUMA MC's, "MASSIVE" was released. He also participated in DABO's third album, "Diamond" as a featuring artist. In 2004, he participated in DJ CELORY's album "BEATS JAPAN", and MOSOZOKU's forth album "SHINKOSAKUSEN". He also went on Japan tour with DABO, then with DJ EVIL DEE from the BEATMINERZ. In 2005, he participated in DJ HAZIME's first album "AIN'T NO STOPPIN THE DJ", EQUAL's first major EP "GODATSU GAME", DJ RYOW's first album "PROJECT DREAMS", 565 FAMILIA's first album "GANGSTA BOOGIE", KONAMI compilation album "573", and DELI's second album "24". At the same time he started his own label "R-RATED RECORDS" with his homeboys from Kyoto (ANARCHY and LA BONO), and released a long waiting solo album "RELOADED" with backups by AVEX ENTERTAINMENT, FUTURE SHOCK, and BABY MARIO PRODUCTION. In 2006, he went on tour with his labelmates in over 40 locations and spreaded the name, "R-RATED RECORDS" all over Japan in just 3 months. While expanding his career as an executive producer for his artists such as ANARCHY, LA BONO, YOUNG BERY, and NAUGHTY, he released his own maxi-single, "STREET DREAMS" in 2006. He released a long waited full album "DOCUMENT" in decmber 2007.
