Why hasn't a famous singer like Justin Bieber come from Japan?
In this generation it wouldn't be strange to become a star from Youtube


31: 2018/10/01(月) 22:43:19.07 ID:38xoSrwV0
>>29
Looks


37: 2018/10/01(月) 22:44:00.06 ID:W3MbeUota
>>31
Is it about looks? There are not ikemen


32: 2018/10/01(月) 22:43:20.00 ID:aARkyGbfa
Is there reason why a Japanese person can't take the number 1 spot on Billboard because the level is too low?


33: 2018/10/01(月) 22:43:25.51 ID:ZSwfW3HW0
Okay so if you ask a foreigner "Do you know any Japanese artists?" would they say no?
Sad


34: 2018/10/01(月) 22:43:42.56 ID:fsZqWZ2Yd
For rock it's One Ok Rock


35: 2018/10/01(月) 22:43:46.47 ID:OZ0zJ1IM0
Shonen Knife


39: 2018/10/01(月) 22:44:19.72 ID:8J8cW+t10
That would be X


41: 2018/10/01(月) 22:44:33.69 ID:aXv+uifi0
On the opposite do you guys know an artist from China or Russia?
Japan is a small country to it's obvious that there wouldn't be any artists that are known all over the world

This. His nationality is American though


83: 2018/10/01(月) 22:48:26.00 ID:YNvkPu/F0
America is fine enough with it's own music
They have no interest in music from other countries
Much less pop from an island country far east

Older men will know MO
Young people tend to know artists from watching anime


107: 2018/10/01(月) 22:50:44.61 ID:YNvkPu/F0
>>97 
Do foreigners watch anime a lot?


118: 2018/10/01(月) 22:51:49.13 ID:4kip+veH0
>>107
Relatively they watch it a lot
Older men know Ghost in the Shell
For some reason there were some that knew about Bakugan


125: 2018/10/01(月) 22:52:37.80 ID:YNvkPu/F0
>>118
I thought those were anime that only extreme otakus watch but I was wrong


134: 2018/10/01(月) 22:53:12.54 ID:4kip+veH0
>>125
I was surprised that it was sort of common knowledge for young people
Even though I don't know Boku no Pico everyone over there knows it, what the heck


153: 2018/10/01(月) 22:55:18.10 ID:YNvkPu/F0
>>134
Do they not watch their own country's anime


170: 2018/10/01(月) 22:56:48.01 ID:4kip+veH0
>>153
They watch it. Over there The Simpsons and Adventure World are well known
And there's Family Dad?
I didn't know at all so I didn't get it


99: 2018/10/01(月) 22:50:09.77 ID:r+3bFFO20
Utada Hikaru because of Kingdom Hearts

The japanese people are so focused on their own music market, they don't know which of their own artists are popular overseas themselfes :)

 

I would have thought they come up immediately with Amuses artist but only One Ok Rock was mentioned once. I guess they would be surprised to see Babymetal playing on festivals in front of several ten thousand regularely or having several own concerts all over the world each year which range from smaller venues up to Wembley Arena.

 

It's somewhat true that there's not that one single big pop star which is known all over the world. But in some genres, japanese artists are very well established, like rock, metal and also in the more electronic pop genre with Perfume and several years ago Ayumi Hamasaki with some known DJ's using her songs for a lot of remixes in electronic music.

Not Anime, but I watch and enjoy Gumball

 

 

but if asked for Japanese singer, first name on my mind is Ayumi Hamasaki.

Weebs don't bother with Japanese class. Remember? They think they learn everything they need from anime...
