My favourite albums from Namie are Queen of Hip-Pop, PLAY, PAST<FUTURE and Checkmate! . |
Couldn't have said it better myself
She also had to fight to get people to love her new Genre. I know that sounds weird but, when she first tried 'Hip Pop' no one really bought her albums. It wasn't until 'Play' that people started listening to her again. Say what you want about her, but I think it's really admirable what she's managed to do with her career.
I think it's hilarious that people are mostly voting for her recent albums. Where's the love for her early works? haha
I know her voice is a bit....different, but it's still amazing material!
My top 3 would probably be:
(1)Past < Future
(2)Sweet 19 Blues
(3)181920
