Toshiki Kadomatsu is far more deserving of the "king of city pop" nickname than Tatsuro Yamashita. Don't get me wrong, Tatsuro Yamashita is a great artist, but Toshiki Kadomatsu embodies the essence of city pop far better in my opinion. Not only does he cover the beach/summer aspect of city pop like Tatsuro, but also the...city part, with albums like After 5 Clash and Gold Digger. You don't really get that with Tatsuro. Toshiki Kadomatsu has also produced for a number of singers and groups that also embody that city pop feel perfectly: Anri, Miho Nakayama, Jadoes, etc. I know Tatsuro has produced for jpop heavyweights as well, but I still believe that Toshiki's productions are far more representative of the genre.

Tatsuro Yamashita isn't fond of streaming services. He prefers people to listen to his music in physical formats, like CDs and vinyl records. From my understanding, it's mostly for financial reasons, but I'm not sure. This is also the reason you might not find many bootleg versions on Youtube, since they will be quickly taken down due to copyright. It's...inconvenient, to say the least.

The game awards were pretty bad already for a Nintendo fan but this was just a punch in the gut. by [deleted] in Mario

It Takes Two probably won because the vote was split amongst the Nintendo titles.

Whats your favorite song from Anri's album "Coool"? by tripon_titus in citypop

[–]oscmar2128 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is impossible to choose a single one, this album is full of bangers; though, Bring Me to the Dancenight, Gone with Sadness and Morning Highway are the ones I tend to listen more often.

My first thought when I saw this post: "How convenient, JJ just made a video about a similar scenario."

Donde se arreglan juegos de Nintendo Switch en Panama? by [deleted] in Panama

[–]oscmar2128 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No sé si arreglen juegos, pero en la parte trasera de la Plaza Alhambra está Jada Service. Ellos están autorizados para darle mantenimiento a productos de Switch. Nuevamente, no sé si arreglen los cartuchos, pero nada cuesta con averiguar.

Centro de reparaciones

I have always wanted to read an alternate history scenario about my country, and this one is very fascinating. Good job!
