Teriyaki Boyz - Teriya-King ft. Kanye West & Big Sean
Artist: Teriyaki Boyz
Featuring: Kanye West , Big Sean
Producer: Kanye West
Album: Serious Business
Label: Universal Music/Star Trak
Like I’ve said in past blurbs, hip-hop has officially gone international! In the past year, acts from Canada and New Zealand made the States’ Top 40, and artists hailing from Sweden, Norway, Belgium, and the Czech Republic have graced our own music charts. Now the Booth is proud to introduce readers to the Teriyaki Boyz, a Tokyo-based group set to make history with the February 3rd release of their sophomore album; Serious Japanese will be the first major-label American release of a Japanese hip-hop group (on Pharrell Williams’ Star Trak Entertainment via Universal). On their debut Booth feature, Ilmari, Ryo-Z (of Rip Slyme), Verbal (of m-flo), WISE, and Nigo (the founder of BAPE) team up with Kanye West and his G.O.O.D. Music protégé, Big Sean, to show exactly why they’re the kings (or, more specifically, the Teriya-Kings) of their craft. ???, ???????! (Japan, stand up!)

UH OH, WE GOT THE ASIANS IN THE HOUSE. Im not feelin this at all. Kanye, i appreciate the drop of the autotune, but it didnt make it any better. Production is lame.

Kanye came from far left field on this one. Didn't see him collabing with these type of guys at all. The name of these guys makes me think this group is just a big joke. But hey, whatever. Anyway, the beat is awful. I'll be waiting for a DJ to put this Kanye verse over a better beat.

Kanye without autotone...this the Kanye I dig. His lyrics are dope and thats the only reason this song is iight. The other guys are creative but just alright. Beat is alright and Kanye works around it to make a dope verse! In rotation

This beat is pretty bland, and its a little annoying. Kanye had a pretty good verse, and from what I could tell the rest just did OK. I wish I spoke Japanese so I could say if the Boyz were wack or not... The only hip-hop that I don't understand but still think that its tight is the stuff out of France; French just sounds crazy over a hip-hop beat. Anyway, It's funny how Big Sean sounds so much like he's tryin to do a Kanye flow. OK

cb126405, you mad late. Kanye collabed with these guys like two years ago, way before "Graduation" even came out.
Ye had a decent verse. I like him rapping again as well. I've heard better verses from Verbal and better joints from the Teriyaki Boyz as a whole. I've also heard better beats from Ye. This gets rotation though. |

"Teriya-KINGS, KINGS, KINGS, KINGS" is stupid as hell. I liked a different song they had... "I Still Love H.E.R.", and I'm sure that title has been done by multiple people before this group.

This song is w/e and despite the band name they are actually very good. They brought Verbal from M-flo, wise which is actually an American born Japanese. They have great music and Even thought non Japanese speakers don't understand I think people are forgetting music is an international language.
