Biography
Lyrics Born (stage name for Tsutomu William "Tom" Shimura) emerged as a Japanese-American rapper, singer, and producer. Born September 2, 1972, he's known primarily as one half of Latyrx, the hip-hop duo with Lateef the Truthspeaker. The project marked a shift from his earlier moniker, Asia Born, to the more conceptual Lyrics Born. As a performer, he works across rapping, singing, and production—roles that reflect a hands-on approach to hip-hop craft rather than a single lane. Virgo births often correlate with detail-oriented, methodical artistry; Shimura's trajectory reflects this precision in both collaboration and solo output. His work spans the late 1990s onward, anchoring him in post-boom-bap West Coast hip-hop circles. He holds US citizenship.
