Little TokyoOda Kazumasa8rank/position

Many people surely remember him singing the opening phrase a cappella, followed by the dapper image of Oda sipping coffee.
The song “Little Tokyo” was his third single overall, and its refined, urban, and grown-up sound—so characteristic of Oda—perfectly matched the mood of the commercial.
Incidentally, the label Oda founded is also named “Little Tokyo,” so you could say this track encapsulates the very image of Oda as he made his fresh start as a solo artist.
