Oh my gosh! I saw bits and pieces of Yuki's first solo single "the end of shite" (written, apparently, by the girl from Seagull Screaming Kiss Her Kiss Her)! ... Of course, no reaction, because nobody else saw it - but it does confirm that cute == hot in the Japanese/East Asian pop culture, and that somehow, as the article of the other day was saying, then Yuki is to Japan what Britney Spears is to the US (or should it be Ai Otsuka?). Anyways, I guess bleeding noses exploding are meant to be funny.
What is she pulling out of there? Gnomes, of course!
In the same family as m-flo, I discovered this J-rap girl duo called "HALCALI" (as I was searching works by Miho Moribayashi of Hi-Posi - she did a remix for HALCALI)... Did not put the whole album up, because as any sort of thing that only Japan is interested in, the filenames and ID3 data are all in Japanese...
HALCALI - Electric Sensei - (electric body sensei mix)
This is a pretty awesome remix of their 2nd single, "Electric Sensei"; and if you go on their website, you can hear that the original song has nothing to do with the remix. Anyways, punch me if you want more. :D Oh, and is that rap in Japanese, Engrish, or Spanish-Japanese? o_O - Not said on the filename: tthe remix is by Takkyu Ishino.
[The PV for the 3rd single, "Giri Giri Surf Rider", is this cool fight between a gang of goth schoolgirls and their girl 80s punk rivals! (Who then settle their differences by dancing in choregraphy with those we call HALCALI)]
