Emi Hinouchi New Single

Since I already mentioned my favorite Japanese male artist here, figured I’d share my who my favorite Japanese female artist is.

Emi Hinouchi is a J-Pop singer and song writer. At the age of 16, she composed her first song, “Painful”, which landed her on Tachytelic Records after performing the piece at an audition. Since then she’s released an album along with several singles and collaborated with numerous artists singing and ghostwriting.

She’s got a voice that I can only describe as sexy. I never get tired of listening and it’s an added bonus that she writes her own lyrics. This is the MV to her new single to be released November 5.

A bonus video of the first song I heard her in. It’s a collaboration with m-Flo & Ryohei @ m-Flo’s 2007 live tour.
