Sibitt / 志人 – Zymolytic Human

During a visit to Montreal, Sibitt from Tokyo, Japan found and pushed himself in new musical directions for his sophomore album, with the help and collaboration of a wide variety of artists from the city’s diverse music scene.

For listeners who don’t speak Japanese, Sibitt’s rhymes and sensibilities shine through. Language is not a barrier here – you can feel the meaning through his unique flows and character throughout the album.

“Hakko’u Ningen” is a Japanese expression. ‘Hakkou’ means ‘ferment’ and ‘Ningen’ means ‘human being’. Sibitt’s uses this idea as a metaphor for our lives: “don’t be corrupted – recognize that which causes fermentation in your own life and make it a positive growth rather than cause for decay.”
