Kento Sugō (菅生 健人, Sugō Kento, born June 13, 1996), known professionally as Kocchi no Kento (こっちのけんと, Kotchi no Kento, lit. 'This Kento') is a Japanese singer-songwriter and internet personality. He is best known for his single "Hai Yorokonde".

Life and career

Kento Sugō was born in Minoh, Osaka Prefecture, Japan on June 13, 1996.[2] His father is Arata Sugō, a management consultant, journalist, author and television personality,[3] who inspired him the music.[4] He has two siblings; an elder brother is the actor and singer Masaki Suda, and a younger brother is the actor and model Araki Sugō.[5] He attended Komazawa University, where he formed an a cappella group called Chemical Quartet with the members from the university's a cappella club Meiseishishin.[6] He won the national amateur a cappella contest A Cappella Spirits for two consecutive years.[7]

Sugō began YouTube career by covering the a cappella version of several songs in 2019.[7] He uses the stage name "Kocchi no Kento", meaning "this Kento". It derivered from the feeling when he sings, which is himself more than being a salaryman after graduating, like the "other Kento".[8] He appeared as a backing vocal for the performances of Radwimps and Tōko Miura's "Grand Escape" at the 70th NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen in 2019,[9] and Miisha Shimizu at New Disney Plus Celebration Night.[10]

Kocchi no Kento started writing his own songs in 2022,[4] and released his debut single "Tiny" via Blowout Inc. on August 30 the same year. The song is about relationship among his brothers.[11] His late 2022 single "Shinuna!" went moderated viral on TikTok in mid-2023,[12] peaking at number nine on the Billboard Japan Heatseekers Songs.[13] Kocchi no Kento's 2024 single "Hai Yorokonde" became his most successful song to date due to the virality on social media.[14] The song peaked at number four on the Billboard Japan Hot 100,[15] and number seven on the Oricon Combined Singles Chart.[16] Following the success of "Hai Yorokonde", the singer would appear as a main artist for the first time at the year-end special 75th NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen on December 31.[17]
