Shakkazombie is a Japanese rap group consisting of three members (MC Osumi, Tsutchie, and MC Hide-Bowie). They formed in 1994 when Tsutchie joined Osumi and Hide-Bowie who were already making music at the time and released their first single "ShakkAttack" in 95. They are credited for introducing many up and coming artists in their collaborations.
Their song 空を取り戻した日 (Sora wo torimodoshita hi) was featured during the credits of Session XX, the mid-series recap episode of the popular Anime
television show Cowboy Bebop

Most noted in North America for their song '白いヤミの中' (The White Darkness), popularly known as 'Shiroi Yami no Naka', off of the single 'ビッグ・ブルー' (Big Blue) which was used in an anime music video
entitled "Tainted Donuts".
