Heartsdales is a Japanese hip-hop group composed of two sisters, Yumi and Emi, known by their stage names Rum and Jewels, respectively.

Emi was born on December 4, 1976 in Tokyo, Japan. Her family moved to the Yonkers area of New York about the time that Yumi was born (December 17, 1981). They lived there for 13 years.

Some time later, Emi and Yumi appeared on the TV entertainment-audition program ASAYAN. Their performance on ASAYAN landed them a contract. They adopted the name "Heartsdales" as a reference to the city Hartsdale, New York where they grew up.

They released their first album, Radioactive, in 2002 under AVEX Record's sublabel Cutting Edge. Since then, they have released six more albums and fourteen singles under AVEX's Espionage Records sublabel. The Heartsdales' management office is Artimage, who also manages other Japanese hip-hop artists such as m-flo and Double.

On June 22, 2006, Heartsdales announced on their official website that they were going to break-up and they were going to move on to new projects as solo artists. [1]
