I'm surprised there hasn't been a topic started for him. He has one of the smoothest voices I've heard in J-pop/R&B. And he's only 21 years old.

Most of you may have heard him on the 1st ending song for Durarara!!(Trust Me). Which is where I heard is golden voice and from there I just looked him up and have been hooked ever since.

He has also played Sebastian Michaelis from Kuroshitsuji on stage and of course sang Bird for the ending theme for the anime.

I just love his voice and his song Foolish Foolish has been stuck in my head for over a week now. Gotta love him!!

I can't believe this thread sn't that active.

His voice is just so beautiful, smooth, gentle yet with a hint of sadness. I really love how he has been so influenced by R n B and Michael Jackson - you can so see it in his dance moves and the way he sings. Gosh to think he's done so much and he's only 21.



^ TRUST ME PV

A few vids from his live 2010

The dance is amazing

His latest single "Kimi he no love song~10nen saki mo (A love song to you even after 10 years.

[michikodesu]

Okay, super late with this; but this came out this past summer............and I love it!!! I like his cute songs more than I like his R&B. He did release a new album, but many of the songs sound too much like the R&B here in the States, so I'm not jumping all over it. 

 

But this sound.....I LOVE!!!

I think his R n B songs still have a bit of JPOP in them, but he does always say he's heavily influenced by Hip hop and R n B of America.

Thought i would do some member introduction 

From left to right 

YUYA - KODAI - SHOTA - JUKIYA - T-MAX

[Snipey]

Didn't they lose two members? Or have two more new ones joined? I'll be honest I haven't been following him since he started this group, it's a shame because I think he was amazing as a soloist.

They should really debut in Korea, they would so well!

I agree with you he was amazing as a soloist. He wanted to try out being in a group so he formed X4.

They started out as a 4 member group with YUYA, KODAI, T-MAX and SJ hence the name X4. Then SJ had some issues and decided to leave the group. which i think is a shame he had a great voice. 

SHOTA and JUKIYA are the new members. 

The red hair is SJ

This is a video with subs i made, they removed the original video i think because SJ was inside. 

[minaeshi]

Ahhh i wanted to make a thread for them here, but i didn't think anyone cared about boy jpop groups in H!O

[zakuramz]
