Today is Flying Get day for Friday

Somemore new Friday promo pictures

Shota video comment of Friday uploaded via Excite Music's Twitter

Frankly Shota should get a new stylist & image makeover . The weird hairstyle , sunglasses , numerous necklaces , hip hop baggy clothes all should go away & been getting quite tiresome since My Boo :x

Friday is easily Shota's most auto tune over saturated single to date . All the songs including the B-side & remix are filled with auto tune which made me have a big headache

I feel like writing to Shota to tell him to stop using it since he writes & composes almost his entire discography cos auto tune doesn't do justice to his voice which's bizarre as that's not what I got into his music in the 1st place almost 10 years ago with My Treasure

I really don't want to come to a situation where I stop listening to Shota due to this which's a big shame as I think he's talented but at this rate he's going , I might as well go listen to Hatsune Miku -_-

Honestly I'm not having high hopes for WHITE especially since I was quite disappointed on how bad PROUD & FLY were

Also Shota should fire his stylist . The hip hop reject look , sunglasses & weird dreadlocks all have to go -_-

I think it os just a style he want to do right now - both visually and soundscape wise. Artists do know, that it will alienate a fanbase, but that only does not happen, when the label controls an artist - thus getting boring in the long run (like Kana Nishino)

I don't know if it's a phrase Shota is going through but considering that I've been listening to him pretty much since his debut , the last few years I haven't been pleased with what he has came up with

The last single of Shota I genuinely like was 2015's Hanataba no Kawari ni Melody wo and after that it has been non stop auto tune tracks that he kept releasing over & over again

And when I start liking the B-sides more than the main A-side within the past 5 singles of Shota , that's not a good thing

Also for once I think Shota should not release a studio album this year . He should have saved that for a proper 10th anniversary best album

Which's why when Sony decided to release ALL SINGLES BEST 3 years ago , I thought that shouldn't have materialised , same thing with SHOTA SHIMIZU MUSIC CLIPS 2008-2014

It's not as though Shota can't sing well . This's the same guy that sung at New York's Apollo Theatre before he made his official debut so for him to now conceal his vocals with auto tune saturation , I don't understand why

And if Shota really feels that he suck vocally , then he should have done this a long time ago during his early days & not within the last few years

I don't want to come to a stage where I stop supporting Shota just like what I did with other artistes that I stopped doing so over the years so for this , I'm going to keep my expectations super low for WHITE

^as I said before, you are stuck on an old picture of an artist you like/liked. 2015 is not that far away + if you like the b-side, you still like songs of him.
And you stating "to conceal his voice because he thinks he sucks" shows that you clearly did not understand what I said before. Autotune is not a way to conceal flaws in voice and was not created for the sake of it but is rather part of an more electronic sound. I haven't listend to much of him, but I guess he did RnB before ( a very vocal heavy style) and his style now seems to be more electronic. It is not that he can't sing well anymore, but that he probably likes the sound right now and it will change again eventually. You should consider to step away for a while and enjoy the songs of him which you love than constantly holding your hands open for new songs that sound like his old style. Musicians/Artists change constantly and that is the best thing that can happen and everyone should encourage something like that.

Thats being said: sony is shitty with best of albums and terrible timing. This is nothing he decided, but his contract forced him to do.

^sorry if I came of to harsh. wasn't meant like that - just some advise to maybe enjoy him again. I guess people have to stop to keep longing for a "sound that is like this and that song". A similar debate takes place in the ayu thread.

No don't worry I'm not offended by what you said in your previous post reply to me . You did wrote down some good points

I don't expect Shota would return back when he 1st started in the business , sound wise but just that the last few years I've been quite turned off by what he has came up with , aside from the B-side songs that came with the singles

Perhaps I might enjoy WHITE . If not then I will just wait until Shota finally comes up with something I really enjoy from him
