Mina Otomonai (乙茂内 美奈[4], Otomonai Mina, born October 14, 1998), known professionally as Chanmina (ちゃんみな), is a South Korean-Japanese rapper and pop musician. She debuted in 2016 independently, before releasing her major label debut album Miseinen in 2017.

Biography

[edit]

Chanmina was born in South Korea,[2] to a Japanese father and Korean mother, and lived in Korea until she was three years old.[4] As her mother is a professional ballerina, she spent her childhood traveling around Korea, Japan and the United States.[2][4] Due to her mother's influence, Chanmina learned ballet and violin from a young age.[2]

During this time in her life, she discovered the song "Day by Day" (2008) by Korean band Big Bang, and felt moved by the song, inspiring her to become a rapper.[2][1] Chanmina originally planned to move to South Korea to become a K-Pop musician in her second year of high school, however her friend, female rapper Messhi, convinced her to stay in Japan.[4][2] She first came to fame after participating in the 2016 Bazooka!!! Kōkōsei Rap Senshūken [ja], a high school rap competition broadcast on BS Sky Perfect!,[2] and her independently released debut single "Miseinen" (featuring Messhi on the track), managed to top iTunes Japan's hip-hop song rankings chart.[1]

Her first major label debut single "Fxxker" was released in 2017, followed by her debut album Miseinen (2017).[3][5] In the same year, Chanmina released the extended play Chocolate, which was recorded in Los Angeles.[5] The following year, Chanmina switched labels to Warner Music Japan.[2] The title song from her second album Never Grow Up was used as the theme song for the Japanese drama Jigoku no Girlfriend and became a sleeper hit, reaching over 10 million views on YouTube eight months after the song's release, and receiving a gold certification for streaming from the RIAJ.[6][7]

In September 2021, Chanmina's song "I'm a Pop" was featured in the Netflix film Kate,[8] leading the song to chart in the United States on the Billboard World Digital Songs chart.[9] Chanmina released her third studio album, Harenchi in October, featuring "Voice Memo No. 5", "Picky", "Angel" and "Bijin"; songs she had released as singles or as leading tracks from extended plays in 2020 and 2021.[10]

Chanmina released her first full-length Korean single "Don't go" featuring Ash Island on September 23, 2022.

Personal life

[edit]

Chanmina is trilingual, speaking Korean, Japanese and English.[2] On July 7, 2024, she announced her pregnancy and marriage to Korean rapper Ash Island.[11] On November 1, she gave birth to her first child, a baby girl.[12]
