Biography

After watching a performance of EXILE on TV in 4th grade of elementary school, he decided to start dancing and attended the street dance school "NEXT DANCE SCHOOL HOMIES" in his home prefecture. After honing his dance skills, Goto decided to try his hand at dancing more seriously, so he went to EXPG Osaka.
After becoming a scholarship student at EXPG, he participated in the GLOBAL JAPAN CHALLENGE in late 2013 to become part of PROJECT TARO. Ultimately, he was unsuccessful in this audition. However, he was selected as a candidate for a new EXILE TRIBE group called THE RAMPAGE. After completing the group's first musha shugyo, Goto was confirmed as an official member on September 12, 2014. He made his major debut with THE RAMPAGE on January 25, 2017, with the single "Lightning".
In early 2020, Goto paired up with Hasegawa Makoto to design a pair of sneakers for a THE RAMPAGE×K·SWISS collaboration.[1]
