Born in Osaka, Japan in the December of 1975; MINMI started her musical career around 1996 by performing at ruba dub showcases and hip hop events at the clubs in Osaka, and also started to make her original tracks around this period. Soon after, MINMI’s name was well known in the club market, through her live performances in the club events, and she participated in the works of the label of the Japanese Big Sound like Red Spider and Mighty Jam Rock. Those CDs became a hit, not only in a Reggae market but also the Hip Hop market.

With much expectations, MINMI has made the artist contract with JVC, and MINMI’s first Maxi Single “The Perfect Vision” was released in August 2003. And this single was well accepted by the radio stations, as shown by the figure of 20 FM stations heavy rotated the song. As the song gradually became popular in the market, the song started to climb up the Sales Chart over 3 months period, and eventually reached the sales of 400,000 units, an extraordinary figure for a début single.

And with the 2nd Maxi Single “T.T.T.”, released in December 2002, MINMI has revealed her diverse approach in her music, from the Reggae based 1st single to this time a Hip Hop based track for the 2nd single. And as a result of the newly tasted tracks and the popular melodies blended in her songs, MINMI became the popular figure among the many of female music fans of 10s~20s.
