Launching 'BLUEPRINT THE RECORDS 001'

Breaking years of silence, BADSAIKUSH of the iconic hip-hop group Namedaru-ma finally speaks out.

Pre-orders for 'BLUEPRINT THE RECORDS 001' began on Thursday, June 11, 2026. This inaugural issue features BADSAIKUSH (Namedaru-ma) on the cover, a rapper who has left his mark on the Japanese hip-hop scene with classic tracks and an authentic street life. The issue includes an expansive long-form interview exceeding 20,000 characters.

'BLUEPRINT THE RECORDS,' published by Cyzo Inc., serves as a compilation of 'BLUEPRINT THE MAGAZINE.' While the cover and lead feature provide brand-new content from BADSAIKUSH, the magazine also archives past interviews with artists who have previously graced the cover, including Zeebra, SEEDA, ILL-BOSSTINO, ANARCHY, and LEX, alongside features on artists such as 7, JNKMN, $MOKE OG, and GREEN ASSASSIN DOLLAR.

### Cover Story: BADSAIKUSH - "Guided by Sound, Living through Words"

As the lyricist leading Namedaru-ma, BADSAIKUSH had maintained a low profile since the group's last original album release in 2019. In this long-form interview, he finally opens up about the current state of Namedaru-ma, his life philosophy, his approach to family, and his genuine personal outlook. The 28-page interview offers deep, unfiltered insight into his artistic journey.

### Official YouTube Integration

In conjunction with the publication, the official YouTube channel will release segments of the interview as part of 'BLUEPRINT THE MOVIE.' BADSAIKUSH’s video interviews begin streaming on June 11, with more scheduled for release in the future.
