Training and a core that are not swayed by momentary trends are necessary.Jay Z
The highest-earning artist in the world is Jay-Z.
You might think, “Wait, does he make more than Michael Jackson or The Beatles?” In terms of music sales alone, they’re ahead.
However, Jay-Z also has a strong footing as a businessman.
Including that income, he’s the top earner among artists.
Here’s one of his famous quotes.
Coming from someone so commercially successful, his refusal to blindly embrace trends is convincing, isn’t it? Be sure to check out some of his classic tracks.
Leave Saturday night to me.Johnny
Johnny, who was the lead guitarist for TCR Yokohama Ginbae RS, had a sweet singing voice different from Sho, Yokohama Ginbae’s lead vocalist, which made him popular.
He made his solo debut in 1982 with the self-produced “Like James Dean.” He also wrote many songs for artists such as Daisuke Shima and Kureiiso.
From 1988, he moved to the production side at King Records and was active as a director.
This track has a sense of speed that brings back memories of the yankee (delinquent) culture of the time.
SorryJustin Bieber
This is a dance track by Justin Bieber featuring a light, tropical house rhythm and a catchy melody.
The lyrics acknowledge past mistakes and express hope for the future, making them relatable to everyone.
Included on the October 2015 album Purpose, the song quickly achieved overwhelming popularity, reaching No.
1 in 13 countries worldwide soon after its release.
The music video, featuring joyful performances by dancers, is especially memorable and has garnered over 3.9 billion views on YouTube.
It’s perfect not only for parties and dance events, but also for school sports days, cultural festivals, and any occasion where people want to dance and have fun together.
Sorry Not SorryKAHOH
“Sorry Not Sorry” is a love song that captures a woman’s refreshing sense of relief after a breakup.
However, it’s not just a cold, dismissive message—perhaps that’s why so many listeners relate to it.
The song is performed by KAHOH, a singer-songwriter who debuted in 2020.
It falls under the R&B genre, with a rhythmic beat that sticks in your head.
It’s also recommended for those who enjoy songs portraying strong, confident women.
SongwriterKAN
A soulful song by KAN that portrays a songwriter’s reason for living.
It’s especially popular among fans and was released as a single in 1997.
I’m sure there are people who have a special attachment to it.
It’s such a wonderful song.
You can feel the musical sensibility likely influenced by Billy Joel and the warmth of KAN’s personality.
The lyrics, filled with the sentiments of a piano man, are sure to move you.
It’s a signature masterpiece that symbolizes KAN the songwriter.
Sakura Night FeverKAN
A song that approaches cherry blossoms—one of spring’s iconic sights—through a disco tune.
Released in February 2015 as the 35th single.
Its pop sound, with an 80s-inspired beat, is pleasantly catchy, and Sho Wada (TRICERATOPS) joins as a guest guitarist.
From the perspective of a cherry tree, it also takes a socially conscious stance, questioning today’s “sakura fever.” The lyrics wryly poke fun at the rowdiness of the hanami season, eliciting a chuckle and showcasing KAN’s signature playful spirit.
It’s a track that prompts you to reconsider the beauty of cherry blossoms—a perfect pop tune for your hanami BGM!
That’s tacky.KANA
I’m captivated by this song that portrays an urban romance.
Released in August 2024, it features lyrics by Nemuko Oikawa and music by Hirokazu Kobayashi, and centers on a sophisticated, adult love.
KANA’s vocals vividly convey the complex emotions of a grown woman.
The depiction of a strong woman who chooses how to part ways is striking—and undeniably cool.
It’s a track I especially recommend to anyone wrestling with matters of the heart.
