The song it is reminding me of is two steps higher key wise, I'm almost sure it was recent and from a rapper but who? It's driving me crazy edit: Welp, this could be Nujabes judging from one of the comments. I feel stupid because I've been spinning his discography again as of late edit2: Here it is

Lots of stuff I have to check out then. Aimer has become one of my favorite singers ever over the last year
Ive imported a bunch of cds to Canada from CDJapan : Japanese Anime, Jpop, Japanese music, Game music, Japanese movie, CD, DVD. Got decent shipping costs from there
I feel you and this also reminds me of that tweet I've seen earlier this week Even compared to 2013/2014 when I was deep into Japanese music corners... the change has been noticeable.
Very late quote but I found this album yesterday and I am obsessed with it: Especially this song: I really feel like making a City Pop thread now.
I haven't felt like doing a lot of digging this year (I wonder why ), but after the 2019 song OMAE, the R&B singer Sara-J has become one of my artists to watch. She has put out some great songs this year too.
