LD&K's new business, "LD&K Agency", which runs Udagawa Cafe, has announced one artist after another!
In April, they announced the new artists "Kimiko Inui", "shibki", and "Oshiromune Yumi". LD&K Co., Ltd., which has many artists such as Gagaga SP, Kariyushi 58, Hitokugokumon Club, Natsuko Nisshoku, Kei Yuki, and also develops store businesses such as Udagawa Cafe and Chelsea Hotel, will spread from Shibuya to Japan and the world. "LD&K Agency" started as a platform to disseminate LD&K's unique culture.
In the first installment, artists such as Fumiko Nakanomori (ex. Nakanomori BAND) and Reina (POLLYANNA) were announced, and a new visual was also lifted. Not only the music activities so far, but also the talent activities, etc., will be active in a wide range of ways.

[Comment from Kimiko Inui]
Come to think of it, 25 years ago, I remembered being scouted by LD&K in the middle of Shibuya, and that's when I joined.
Dyed in a challenging corporate culture,
I also want to try new things, so
Thank you all for your support.

You will be attracted to her unique presence and ennui atmosphere.
[shibki comment]
nice to meet you.
I belonged to LD&K Agency. My name is Shibki.
I became interested in fashion and music influenced by HIPHOP that my parents listened to.
Currently working as a model.
From now on, I want to challenge many things as a model and live creatively.
Thank you.

<Oshiromuneyumi>
The portrait was created by Yumi Oshiromune, a painter. At the age of 16, he went to the United States alone, and at the age of 23, he held a solo exhibition in London and is active worldwide. LD&K's Jazz bar Amber mural is also his work. His unique sense and hidden punks are hit directly on the canvas and get a lot of praise from many people.
LD&K SHOP also sells original goods such as hoodies and stickers. In the future, I am planning a live painting and a solo exhibition.
[Comment from Yumi Oshiromune]
LD&K has been with LD&K for the first time in a long time after returning to Japan, mainly working overseas such as London and New York.
The biggest theme is "on the road".
As a city, Shibuya, which continues to create culture, is the base.
I was immersed in the peak of street culture and grew up absorbing it with my skin, so I grew up with street culture. For me, it was a place I had to return to, and it was probably inevitable that I belonged this time. There is no goal because to keep drawing is the biggest goal and goal. I would like to continue drawing the street as one theme.
That is, return to origin.

LD&K AGENCY is steadily expanding the range of affiliated artists without being bound by models and talents.
Based on the concept of "do what you want to do", we will send out something interesting from Shibuya.
By the way, you can enter not only the audition but also yourself, so if you are interested, please check it out. Also keep an eye out for upcoming artists!
