I'd like to buy some J-pop/ J-rock music, but I don't know which artists are good, so I need your help. I'm grateful to everyone who can tell me something about these japanese artists/ bands:

Ai Otsuka
Ayumi Hamasaki
BoA
Jolin
L'Arc~en~Ciel
Namie Amuro
Utada Hikaru
W-inds

I'd like to know what kind of music these artists do and your opinion of their music.

I hope you can help me.

search google.com for info, maybe it can help you out.

I do know L'Arc~en~Ciel of course, FMA!!! DER!

BoA is a band that did a track for InuYasha.
Utada Hikaru did tracks for Kingdom Hearts.
Namio Amuro did the track, "come" 7th inuyasha ending theme song. I prolly have a song by all these artists/bands but I gotta organize my anime folder and such..it's a havoc in there. XD.

Utada Hikaru made the music for KH?! Woooooow. I think I must buy her CD since I adore the music of KH.
L'Arc~en~Ciel sounds very interesting too. Punk/ rock =yummy :P

I'll try to find some info (and maybe some music, too) from Google.

But many thanks to you for your valuable help :)

Jolin as in Jolin Tsai? Because she is pretty good. She is a Chinese singer and most of her music is pop.

BoA is an artist not band..She also did for a song for PS2 game Sengoku Musou as well.
Ai Otsuka her singing style is cute.
ayumi Hamasaki she did for Inuyasha, 'no more words', 'Dearest'...also a PS2 game (i think is Omnimusha..the new series...) entitled Startin'.
Amuro Namie her song now a days belongs to hip hop style.
w-inds. is a group by 3 male, their songs mainly are those dancing beat style.
Utada Hikaru sing the songs HIKARI (Simple and Clean in English) in Kingdom Heart1 and Passion (Sanctuary in English) in KH2.

Interesting...

I have another question. On the 13th ep of Gravitation (isn't that anime only 13 eps?), what's the song that Ryuuichi plays to save time for Shuuichi. Bad Luck and Nittle Grasper join up and play his song. I'm not sure of the title though. Is it something that has like 7-days in it?

jolin tsai is very very poppy type of chinese music. i guess she's okay...if you're going to buy chinese music, i suggest

wang lee hom
jay chou (zhou zie lun)
and david tao for "real music" (they all compose and write the music/lyrics to their songs)

jolin tsai has a new cd out...i'm not sure what it's called, but her "j-game" cd was pretty good.

Re: Does anyone know about these artists/ bands?
Ayumi Hamasaki Queen of J-Pop. Seriously. She pretty much leads the style of J-Pop. Recently, she's leaned towards a rock-ish flavor (save for songs like 'Ladies' Night'). She's best if you want something that's undoubtably J-Pop.

L'Arc~en~Ciel Popular J-Rock band. Best noted for 'Ready Steady GO' from Fullmetal Alchemist. Their style is fun and strong. Leader singer HYDE has a fantastic voice, too. They're slightly pop-ish compared to harder J-Rock bands like dir en grey and +D'espairsRay+. But nontheless, they add a unique flavor to J-Rock.

Namie Amuro Best dancer in J-Pop currently. Her music genre is both dance (like Europop) and hip-hop. All around fun dance music.

Hikaru Utada One of THE best voices in J-Pop. She's a fantastic singer. Her lyrics are emotionally driven as well, as shown with her work for the Kingdom Hearts games. She's especially good if you don't like deciphering Engrish; she speaks English fluently (being Japanese American).



am i more than you bargained for yet?

I know all those artists...hehehe...that's all I can say on that part of the question...the other part to the question...if they are good or not...well...I like them except for Jolin and she's Chinese...she doesn't really interest me that much...

Ai Otsuka - Hanabi is a good song and she sounds really cute and looks cute too (J-Pop)
Ayumi Hamasaki - I have been a long time fan...her music is mostly dance/techno/upbeat and such...(J-Pop)
BoA - very popular...I like quite a number of her songs...but I haven't been up to date with her music because I just haven't...hehehe...(J-Pop)
L'Arc~en~Ciel - is a really cool guy band...(J-Rock)
Namie Amuro - yeah...I would say she's up there...(J-Pop)
W-inds - cool guy band...I like their rapping and they can do slow songs good too...(J-Pop)
Utada Hikaru - she's brilliant...and that's all I'm gonna say...
Mikuni Shimokawa - she's really really good...
