Aim for the most up to date mainstream sound and lose your musical identity.

Luckily Ayu is still refusing to jump on the David Guetta sound (I call it so) everyone else is looking for to improve sales.
Preach!
Thank god Ayu hasn't jumped aboard the electropop/dancepop craze. I probably would lose interest in her if she did so. I have specific artists if I want to listen to electro (ami suzuki for example). The Ayu sound is much more different. It's more slow, relaxed. I hope it stays that way. She just has to, as Pieces_of_SEVEN says, stay true to herself.
