Japanese Hip Hop/Rap/R&B artists
Okay, so hip-hop has become my favorite genre. I always just liked 90s hip hop but I've grown to love modern stuff as well.
So I was wondering what R&B or Hip Hop Japanese artists you guys like and reccomend. Or if you don't like any, at least tell me who's big in Japan right now, or who used to be big. I only know Shota Shimizu. Lol and Namie if she counts.

Here're some R&B + Rap artistes that I personally like/listen/support
R&B : - Aoyama Thelma ; if you look past her only well known hit to date Soba ni Iru ne , her discography is actually quite solid , especially her upbeat no.s - BENI - JASMINE - Kato Miliyah - Kuroki Meisa ; I don't know if she's counted as R&B ? I think so haha if not it will be edgy pop - Matsushita Yuya - Suga Shikao ; he's more towards soul & funk but from time to time he incorporates R&B in his stuff Rap : - Hilcrhyme - SEAMO ; I like the duet ROCK THIS WAY that he did with SPYAIR last year . Classic case of Rap meets Rock  - SHUN ; not the 1 whom left EXILE , this SHUN is much more younger lol

Many people like JASMINE.
Emi Hinouchi's ME album is one of my favorite R&B/pop albums ever. hiromi is pure R&B. tbh, people in this category of artist don't tend to ever be "big" in Japan. At least not the girls.

^lol you got the list DOWN.
I'd really recommend AILI too. She has some gems. LUNA makes me laugh. She's the Queen of Street~

 Those two are my favourites! AILI is a really nice producer too I need more solo from LUNA but it looks like she'll stay in MaryJane for the time being
