After graduating from high school in Okinawa, she studied in the United States, during which period she married and had a child with an American. Tragically, he was murdered in an incident after her graduation. Following this, she returned to her home island and established Cipher City, a marketing and production company, in order to create content utilising the local resources.
Okinawa today is under political pressure, having been a target of both fascination and discrimination amongst Japan and surrounding Asian nations for years due to its exotic culture and hybrid transformations. Her lyrics, positions, and perceptions turn both the positive and negative aspects of her surroundings — cultural fusions, identity crises, pride and shame — into an honest craft.
In 2017, she released a full album, her first in a decade, in partnership with Chaki Zulu. She flows freely between Japanese, Okinawan and English, piecing together a unique sound while also staying true to the lyrics. Her deep vocals generates a captivating atmosphere for listeners. Awich’ s ability to submerge herself into multiple global perspectives while also adding her signature feminine touch allows her to create music that is singular but relatable across the world.

あるはずもない扉
What? Ah who gives a fuck
みな同じ穴のむじな
Wait ah いただきます
お宝全部いただきます
Wow ah open it up
Uh ahh open it up
ひらけゴマ
まだ見ぬお宝が眠る境地の扉を開け
怖がらずに open the fuck up
脳みそパッカンで飛び立つタケコプター
くだらんルールの重力無視して float
I get so high アブラカタブラ言葉は現実の種
Jackson Janet みたいに anytime anyplace 目を見開き ready
Outta planet 地球の外から手を振る I say お先にじゃーね
「暇じゃねー」唾奇みたいにいつでも fucking 行方不明 M.I.A
月を目掛けチャリ漕いでいったホフマン先生 God dammit
Rocket science 太陽までの
Ninety-three million マイルを全速力で飛ばす原動力
得るため刺激する前頭葉 cortex
Hahaha bitches them vex
お前の flow 飽きた what's next
気持ちいとこ突いてよ like sex
You ain't Mr. Right, you're left
私の bad bitches 団結
安さが取り柄の fake hoes 全滅
前代未聞の vision にアクセス
バグった女神が生み出す伝説
あーだ こーだ どーだ no だ
あんた 指導者気取った Joker, you ain't Yoda
Water さえも犯され放題
胡麻擂り誤魔化す公害
なんてこった まー濁った soda
Po up 乾いた喉が soak up
許可とか評価とか bogus
Hocus pocus 坊やほら focus
Uh ah open it up
あるはずもない扉
What? Ah who gives a fuck
みな同じ穴のむじな
Wait ah いただきます
お宝全部いただきます
Wow ah open it up
Uh ah open it up

The lyrics talk about breaking free from the mold and opening oneself up to new experiences and possibilities.
In the first verse, Awich talks about conquering fears and doubts to discover new treasures. She urges listeners to open the door to new opportunities without hesitation, to let go of gravity and float, and to use the power of words to manifest dreams into reality. The second verse draws inspiration from science fiction, referencing the concept of rocket science and traveling to the sun. Awich encourages listeners to stimulate their frontal cortex in order to achieve their goals.
The chorus reinforces the message to open the door to new treasures, take everything with gratitude, and discover new possibilities. The last verse tackles societal issues with an empowering message that encourages listeners to unite and overcome challenges. Awich warns against fake people and encourages the elevation of excellence over mediocrity.
