[News] Music producer Komuro to be arrested for fraud

[Far Away]

This is so sad, I love Tetsuya Komuro. I can't believe it. I was looking forward to globe's return, too. But.. I just felt so sad when I read that he was driven from the hotel in tears. Even though what he did was wrong.. I just can't help but feel bad for him.

I like a lot of his works and globe, but I'm afraid don't really have any sympathy for him because of stuff like this:



lwith the fortunes he has made, it shows some REALLY bad judgement to go in debt as much as he has

After reading that, rotting in jail would do well for him

[jpopfan]

I was so sad when I heard this. I Love Globe and Tetsuya. It is a shame this happened to him I hope he will be ok along with Keiko.

There goes my hopes of seeing Ami perform one of her older hits anytime soon..(excluding BE TOGETHER). This will be the second time she will go through a blacklisting :[

That's not funny. It's really wise to say something like that after reading one article.

^WHAT??????????????????

THATS SUCKS!! although i dont live in japan, but i feel displease by this news!!!

wait a minute, does that mean japan banned his works like can you celebrate only, or until her recent works?

does that mean hitomi's song is been banned too?? i mean her TK songs

[♥ you!]

It means all of Namie's works from Sweet 19 Blues >>>>break the rules. The non TK produced songs on break the rules are fine though, same with everything else. Except for Luvin it, that charity single she did for 9/11.

and yes, hitomi's TK produced stuff is blacklisted also

[prussian blue]

^awwwwww... this will be the news of the day...

poor TK and hitomi and the rest of part of TK family

wait a minute, tomo-chan said she was partying last night, and she wanted to do it again tonight, <3 you, wanna join?

Spoiler:

just kidding

[♥ you!]

LOL, I don't think I can party. This is bothering me soooo much, TK produced songs are some of my most favorite songs ever <_>. He is the reason why I started to like Japanese music in the first place. I really hope this blacklisting doesn't last for too long, but even once the ban is lifted it still won't be the same. We all know how long it took for Ami Suzuki to recover from her blacklisting...which pretty much ruined her career for life. But that's a whole other topic

and speaking of Tomo-chan a ton of reporters went to her house hoping for her to make a comment about the scandal, but she left the building without saying a word~

[bluegie]

I'm kinda surprised about him being arrested. Consider he was the biggest producer back then in Japan.. He was even called Godfather of Music when he was at the top of his game. And gosh he looks so old in those pics... He wasn't a good looking guy but he's not that ugly in my memory...

And I'm kinda glad that Namie hasn't worked for him for a long time so she isn't suffering as bad as the others..

really? tomo sounds very cool do you have any video for that?? i dont think ami's will be affected that much. she's been produced by capsule now. if she is affected, i think its just the same as hitomi, namie and other artist.

Well, he commited a crime, and apparently he was aware that he was really doing it. If it's proven, then yeah, he has to be judged and sentenced. I don't care if he's TK, if he's married to KEIKO, if he's from globe, if he composed many songs or if he found hitomi. Criminals must go to jail. It seems sad, but if he didn't want to get arrested, then he should've played fair. I don't show empathy for criminals just because of who they are.

[UHPlus]

Probably the reason why there's not even a single tk songs in BEST FICTION tour...

[hpg23]

^But the BEST FICTION TOUR tracklist was planned months before the news came out, I suppose. I don´t think TK phoned Namie and told her: "Hey girl, don´t put old stuff in the tour tracklist because the thing is turning pretty nasty, so xD" (and she went like: "OH-MY-GOD!! WHO??! CAN´T SLEEP, CAN´T EAT, I´M SICK!" sorry LOL I´m thick tonight xDDDD)

[ayumisrael]

I wanted to sing A Song is born and CAN YOU CELEBRATE? when I will be in japan T_T.
I hope that this ban will be over someday, is it even possible?

Poor Keiko =\.

WHYYYYYY. I LOVE Namie's work with TK, it's probably my favorite phase of her career. Ah, this sucks. And Ami Suzuki, too.. she's just finally starting to bounce back.

[MsMiyabi]

I have see it yesterday. In the Japanese newspaper . I got it from the super market I will post the article if anyone wants me to

[prussian blue]

hey just wonder , will this happening affect the release of a-nation'08?? since TRF's songs are produced by him...

[DOLCE]

^ Hmm that's true. Wasn't globe supossed to be appearing on the dvd also?. They aren't!

[prussian blue]

^yes! and even namie will be in dvd, i dont think they wont put TK songs.

and wait, so thats mean we wont hear any TK songs in ay artist concert?? can you imagine that there'll be no can you celebrate in namie's concert and boy meets girl by TRF in a-nation dvd??
