Billboard Japan Hot100 Charts (27 Apr 2022) – New songs only edition - Japan music charts

The Billboard Japan Hot 100 is a music chart that ranks the best-selling songs in Japan. It is published by Billboard magazine, and a new chart is compiled and published every Thursday. The chart is based on sales of physical singles and digital downloads. These doesn’t mean music outside of Japan stays out of Japan Billboard, very much the opposite.

However, I only focus on Japan’s artists and songs, even If I enjoy S-Korean music from artists like Ailee and Song Ji Eun. Maybe in the Future who knows!

The Billboard Japan Hot 100 was first published on October 26, 1996. The first number one song was "Too Much Heaven" by Bee Gees. As of July 20, 2019, the most successful artist on the chart is AKB48, with 45 number-one singles.

This week, the Japan Billboard has brought us 8 new Japan songs to the charts. I read the letter on the website of BMSG and decided that these songs deserve as much recognition as any others on the Japan music charts. It's not a competition or about making money, but rather about artistic freedom and awareness for a healthy music industry.

Because Japanese Music is not only Jpop , it has all kind of genres.

vanilla (バニラ) - Kyanai ( きゃない)

In the 90's, a singer-songwriter from Tennoji, Osaka burst onto the scene with lyrics that expressed the events that everyone has experienced once in daily life and the true intentions that we can't always say to people in words. His music is easy-to-listen and reminiscent of JPOP, with a core singing voice that will make your heart throb. He started his career as a solo singer in 2019.

Street performances are the main focus of his work, and he does them every day for about a year in the local Tennoji area. In 2020, he plans to move to Tokyo and do street performances there and in Kanagawa.

Due to the state of emergency, we’re postponing all performances and instead, we’ll be working on original music for the next 100 days. We’ll be publishing these songs on SNS, and at the end of 2020, we’ll start distributing our 4 self-produced albums digitally (they’re currently discontinued).

In March 2021, the live video of the original song "Inu" released on SNS increased to 2 million views. The song is gathering attention, and the excitement is showing in Tokyo, Kanagawa as well as in Osaka.

His first one-man live will be held at Shinjuku LOFT on the day of his 25th birthday. An additional performance has been decided in the local Osaka, and tickets for that show sold out immediately.
