Any Japanese Male R&B Singers? 2009/6/10 22:10
Hi everybody,

I really like R&B and I have some questions related with it.

1) I want to know the names of the Japanese male R&B singers or groups.

Here are the ones that I like:

Hirai Ken
Urata Naoya
Chemistry
Gospellers

2) Some pop or rock singers also release R&B songs. If there are any Japanese R&B songs that you know (sung my males), can you write them for me please?

Some R&B songs that I know:

Exile - Lovers Again
KAT-TUN - Lovin' U
Tohoshinki - Purple Line
Tohoshinki - Ride On

Waiting for your replies! Write everything you know about this matter please!

One of my new pen pals said this is her favorite R&B singer, although it looks like he started out as Pop.

Do you know AI? 2011/7/1 09:31
I've just found AI, a half japanese half italian girl. It seems that she sings j-pop and R&B. Try this link to take a look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-rZU68pbBk&feature=related
I wasn't even wondering that R&B exists in Japan until I heard one music of her (Believe) in a mini-serie.
And now I was starting to look for other singers! I will try the ones you guys cited.

Ken Hirai 2011/8/22 17:35
Recently, Ken Hirai made an album called "Japanese Singer" and i would really recommend it.

His earlier albums are pretty good as well so go check it out :)

I love Rhymester- they are a great R&B + Hip Hop group!!!
Namie Amuro tends to release some R&B songs and MISIA too (her latest album has some R&B in it and ballads too)!
There's Zebra but i think he's leaning a bit more Hip Hop :)

Hope this helps!
Enjooooy :)
