This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Comment: You need to provide context as well as references. It took me quite a long time to determine that these appear to be musicians. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 23:59, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

The Cause Lies Within Me. (原因は自分にある。; Genin wa Jibun ni Aru.), commonly abbreviated as GNJB or Genjibu, is a Japanese avant-garde music group formed on August 14, 2018 under Stardust Records as part of the EBiDAN branch. Formerly known as BATTLE STREET, on August 7, 2019, they changed their name and adopted a new concept for the group. ^[1]

The group consists of seven members: Takato Okura, Kohsaku Koizumi, Masaya Sakuragi, Ryota Nagano, Jun Muto, Kazuto Mokudai, and Kaname Yoshizawa.^[2] Their debut single "Genin wa Jibun ni Aru." was released on October 9, 2019.

Formation

The group was formed through a collaboration between Stardust Records and HMV, through a project called "BATTLE STREET"^[3] that was to launch a street-style unit among members of BATTLE BOYS, a selection project for EBiDAN & KiDS's trainees nationwide who were active in the Kanto region. Members were selected by management based on fan votes and producers opinions that best suited the new group. After voting closed on October 15, 2018, the members of BATTLE STREET were announced; Takato Okura, Masaya Sakuragi, Ryota Nagano, Jun Muto, Kaname Yoshizawa and Kazuto Mokudai. A month after, along with BATTLE STREETs 1st single announcement,^[4] it was announced that Kohsaku Koizumi from EBiDAN SENDAI would join the group as the seventh member. On July 7, 2019, the group announced their official debut as a unit at the BATTLE BOYS live show "BATTLE BOYS LIVE 2019 ~DREAMS COME TRUE~",^[5] and one month later changed their name to "The Cause Lies Within Me." ^[6] Their official fanclub name is "Observer" (感触者; Kansokusha).

Their music presents a unique style that combines the genres of vocaloid, J-POP, Japanese rock, hip-hop, and more. ^[7] Since debuting, the group has received musical contributions from notable figures in the contemporary J-pop scene, including Ayase from YOASOBI.

The group will start a promotion contract with Universal Music in spring 2025.^[8]
