Instagram user @kyohiiru seems to have posted some
news about Kobayashi Shingo.
I tried translating their Instagram caption using Google Translate and it's terribly sad news, but I don't know how reliable it is.
can anyone confirm please?
UPDATE:
I found the
news source.
ayu's longtime and beloved keyboardist/producer Shingo Kobayashi has passed away due to cancer.
this is devastating. he had been with her for so long throughout her career.
