Kind of japanese music that asians and NON ASIANS like because theyre otakus. J pop is really catchy and has meaningful lyrics like a poem. The famous J pop artists are ayumi hamasaki, utada hikaru, Namie Amuro, ect. Non Asians would be like " This is sooooooo better than dumb american music. Japan is soooooo awesome! OMG I love anime and japanese music! Why do non asians listen to J pop if theyre not even asian or japanese? Because theyre obcessed otakus. Americans or non asians can still appreciate japanese music but dont be overly obcessed about it and compare the artists to each other like " Ayumi is so better than Utada! To japanese people, they wont be even competition with each other and enjoy them both.

Her voice is phenomonal at least better than Ayumi Hamasaki's. Many people just like her for the kingdom hearts themes but never listened to her japanese songs.
