Author Benedetta Baldin<\/strong> – 30.10.2025<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n This week, Kim Kardashian and her daughter North West helped Japanese kawaii metal band BABYMETAL<\/a><\/strong> gain a significant amount of viral attention on TikTok, as reported by theprp<\/a>. As the daughter of infamous rapper Kanye West<\/strong>, the aforementioned 12-year-old North West dressed up as BABYMETAL<\/strong> for Halloween. Since then, each of the videos she posted in costume has received millions of views. Ironically, after years of criticism directed at celebrities like Kim for wearing shirts and merchandise from various heavy metal bands for cosmetic reasons rather than genuine enthusiasm, at least one member of the Kardashian clan has started to enjoy considerably heavier music.<\/p>\n Japanese phenomenon\u00a0Babymetal<\/strong>\u00a0has taken the world by storm with their singular mix of metal, pop and extreme visual power. They\u2019ve headlined Wembley, topped Billboard charts, and in 2026 they\u2019ll take the stage at Tons of Rock for the very first time \u2014 promising a show that will shock, seduce and thrill all at once.<\/p>\n The band was formed in\u00a0Tokyo\u00a0in 2010. It consists of\u00a0Suzuka Nakamoto\u00a0as \u201cSu-metal\u201d (lead vocals, dancing),\u00a0Moa Kikuchi\u00a0as \u201cMoametal\u201d (backing vocals, dancing), and\u00a0Momoko Okazaki\u00a0as \u201cMomometal\u201d (backing vocals, dancing). The band is produced by\u00a0Kobametal\u00a0from the talent agency\u00a0Amuse Inc.\u00a0Their vocals are backed by instrumentation performed by a group of\u00a0session musicians\u00a0known as the \u201cKami Band\u201d.<\/p>\n Babymetal<\/strong> was created with the concept of fusing the\u00a0heavy metal\u00a0and\u00a0Japanese idol\u00a0genres. Initially a sub-unit of the Japanese idol group\u00a0Sakura Gakuin<\/strong>, which features school-aged members who leave upon graduation, the band became an independent act in 2013 following Nakamoto\u2019s graduation from Sakura Gakuin. The band originally consisted of Su-metal, Moametal, and\u00a0Yui Mizuno\u00a0as \u201cYuimetal\u201d. In 2018, after Mizuno had been absent from live performances for almost a year, Babymetal<\/strong> announced she had left the band due to health issues. During her absence, the band performed with one or more backup dancers; Okazaki, a former member of Sakura Gakuin<\/strong> who had served as one of those backup dancers, officially joined as the third member in 2023.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source chaoszine.net \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Author Benedetta Baldin – 30.10.2025 This week, Kim Kardashian and her daughter North West helped Japanese kawaii metal band BABYMETAL gain a significant amount of viral attention on TikTok, as reported by theprp.
