When he was talking about why he liked the Killers he was like "Yeah, they are out of the box, ya know? Like, you can't keep in the box. I thought it was pretty cool because he went from like Justin Timberlake to the Killers. Ha, this is pretty random, but I was watching some music channel (forgot which one, MTV Hits maybe?) and Timbaland was up there with his Hit List. I'm planning to do a lil research before I go to work today. It looks like my friend and I are gonna be staying near Narita and will be taking the metro in main Tokyo. Clubs aren't really my favorite thing in the world anyway. The one I really wanna check out, Harlem, I heard doesn't accept gaijin. I'm still debating over whether I should hit a club or not. I've already got like 2 or 3 days worth of stuff to check out in Shibuya and Shinjuku, but that's not counting anything I run into on the way. Next week I've really gotta crack down and start planning what I'm gonna hit in Japan. Keep everybody happy yeah? Anyways, I'm officially broke from paying for plane tickets and the Japan Rail Pass for my trip. I'm gonna try to keep it mixed up here, post some rap and then some R&B and stuff. Ladies like May J and Foxxi MisQ are doing a good job of bringing the American-style diva music over to Japan. I'm partial to Million Wayz, Destination, Good Tymez, and I just recently started listening to the dancehall version of Baby Eyes. My Girls is extreme pop, so I figured the whole mini-album would be as well, but there's actually some pretty nice tracks up here. I really thought this was gonna be crap when I downloaded it lol. This album's lack of sales mainly blamed on lack of promotion. My Girls and Baby Eyes were released as singles from this one. She recently was featured in a song celebrating the 10th Anniversary of NeOSITE Discs, called "I Say Yeah." She also just recently released a song featuring Verbal, "Here We Go."Īll My Girls was May J's first major label release. Her real name is Hashimoto Mei and she is currently in her senior year of High School in Tokyo. Her style of music has been compared to that of Beyonce and J-Lo, but her voice has been criticized for lacking substance. May J is a relatively new artist signed on the hip-hop division of Ki/oon Records, NeOSITE discs, with other artists including Rhymester, Home-Made Kazoku, and Pushim.
