At the age of 12, he released his debut album entitled "FIRST STEP".
In 2017, when he was 14, he won in a competition of the National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship "Fingerpicking Day 2017" in Japan as the youngest grand champion in history. To date Kent has garnered over two hundred thousand YouTube subscribers and his videos have generated over 30 million views!
