About FEMM
Rap duo RiRi and LuLa are two mannequins with a will of their own. Their signature song, "Fxxk Boyz Get Money," was a girl's anthem with a poignant message that was supported by American teens and quickly spread to Europe, South America, and Asia by agents (the name of FEMM's fans) including global influencers. As a result, their debut album "Femm-Isation" made it to the "Top 10" of the U.S. Billboard chart "World Albums". In the U.K., they were selected as one of the "6 Acts To Watch in 2016" by the Huffington Post and as the "Best Indies Album" by all HMV stores, opening up a new decade in the female rap scene both at home and abroad. They are also well versed in internet culture, and was one of the first to start the revival that is now sweeping the world, releasing the Vapor Wave interpretation of "80's-90's J-Pop Revival". In 2020 they released "404 Not Found", a six-song EP with the message of "a brand new sound that doesn't exist anywhere else (yet)". This led to an “upgrade” and launched a new era for the iconic duo as FEMM 2.0.
Their most recent album Tokyo Girls Anthem was released in December 2021, packed with a wide variety of rap tracks made in collaboration with globally active hip-hop producers such as Boys Noize and Star Boy. FEMM then released their latest album, Tokyo Ex Machina in January 2022. The artist’s aggressive musicality, which is linked not only to their agents but also to the dark world view and the global trend known as "Hyper Pop," has garnered deep and sharp attention from both domestic and international media.
