It's the black Hikawa Kiyoshi, basically. Ahaha. :)

He's pretty cool. It's something I would NEVER expect. In a million years. Ahaha.

Well, he does like Sakamoto Fuyumi and Itsuki Hiroshi. :)

is the single anywhr?...i saw it on jpopsuki...hope someone gets it

hm well I uploaded it at JPS. You can't use torrents?

I downloaded it off of jpopsuki (thanks fanmail!) but I'm curious, the first song and its instrumental cuts off abruptly. Is that how the songs are like on the single?

Wow, thats really good. I hope that his singles keep doing well.

I am seriously impressed. Props to him!!

Oh wow, he's doing amazing. Lets hope he gets to number 1, he deserves it and I'm sure he is very happy and proud of himself for his accomplishment to number 2.

Wow, what a nice voice! It's a shame I don't like enka more :innocent But I hope he continues to do well on the charts!

wawww..super voice..
i like it

anybody has his single? or his discography?

he only has one single, haha. XD

Agreed :yes
He's hot :luv2
But it's awesome that an African-American guy is singing Enka!

WOW.

I'm extremely impressed by his music! Especially in the ENKA category!
+1 new fan!
the cool thing is, I got a japanese grandma too!

I finally watched a clip of him singing on a morning news show and am really impressed! I had no idea he speaks Japanese fluently. He'll do well in the long run if he's able to do more than sing.

LOL no way! The voice and the look don't match, but it's so awesome!! XD

JPOPSUKI has the single..anyone can geT?

^ Single is up in the downloads section now.

Beautiful Voice. I totally didn't expect it. I really liked his single too.

WOW !! this is sooo cool!!! He is amazing !!
