Episode description as stored

AWICH and ONE OK ROCK frontman Taka join us to introduce YAO, the new Japanese supergroup bringing together AWICH, ONE OK ROCK, CHICO CARLITO and Paledusk. They explain how the collective came together, the Japanese philosophy behind its name, spending a month in Biarritz creating together and the story behind debut single “777.” Plus, working with RZA, JAY-Z and Linkin Park, and the differences between Japanese and American artists. AWICH opens up about growing up in Okinawa, writing poetry, becoming a rapper at 14, moving to America, motherhood and returning home after the death of her daughter’s father. Meanwhile, Taka reflects on growing up with two famous singers as parents, facing assumptions about his success, getting kicked out of J-pop group NEWS and eventually becoming the frontman of ONE OK ROCK. Plus, learning English, why Taka once planned to quit at 35, Ed Sheeran at the Sphere, Backstreet Boys, Vegas, and taking Japanese music global.
