Japanese rap trailblazer OZworld returns with a hypnotic three-track EP titled ‘369 no.3’. Seamlessly blending otherworldly production with cutting-edge flows, this project showcases OZworld’s signature fusion of spiritual themes, psychedelic trap beats, and high-tier lyricism. Released to critical buzz across Japan’s alt-rap scene, ‘369 no.3’ might be his most visionary chapter yet.
Each track on the EP is a collaboration with some of the hottest talent in the Japanese hip-hop world. The standout opener, “369” featuring Awich, delivers heavy-hitting chemistry between two lyrical giants. Awich’s fierce cadence complements OZworld’s introspective bars perfectly, creating an atmospheric anthem that floats between earthly struggle and divine clarity. It’s a bold opening statement that sets the tone for the rest of the EP.
The second track, “Iyasaka Lit” featuring Chico Carlito, turns up the energy. Layered with wavy, cyberpunk-inspired synths and a gritty undercurrent, the song is a celebration of swagger, resilience, and modern-day street spirituality. OZworld and Chico Carlito bounce off each other with charisma, spitting lines that hit like lightning bolts—flashing bright and hitting deep.
Closing the project is “Irochigai” featuring Tsubaki, a track that blends vulnerability with bold experimentation. There’s a raw emotional core here, wrapped in trap drums and melodic vocal bends that stretch the boundaries of genre. It’s a fitting conclusion to an EP that feels less like a collection of songs and more like a coded transmission from OZworld’s universe.
‘369 no.3’ builds on OZworld’s already-legendary reputation in Japan’s underground rap scene, but it also signals his evolution into something more transcendent. With each single, the Okinawan artist continues to carve out a lane that’s deeply philosophical, sonically unique, and visually unforgettable. The EP is now streaming across all major platforms, and fans of Awich, JP The Wavy, and Tohji will find themselves instantly hooked.
