RAG POUND

Logo (2015-2023)

RAG POUND (ラグパウンド), stylized as ®️AG POUND, is a Japanese, all-male dance crew specializing in Krump.

The crew was formed in 2005 as one of the first Krump crews in Japan with the members PATO, SEVA, AKIRA, TETSUYA, NOB, NAOKI, JUN, REO, and TAKESHI.^[1]^[2]

In 2015, the crew restarted with new members and changed the spelling of their name to "®️AG POUND". The "®️" in the name stands for: "Real = I want to always seek the real thing", "Raw = I want to do cool things" and "Reborn = Restart".^[3]^[4]

On August 30, 2023, it was announced that the crew would be restarted as a group affiliated with LDH JAPAN with a new 8-member lineup.^[2]^[5]^[6]^[7]
