Oh yeah, Namie. Her music is so Western, I forgot. Yes, Mika would be largely ignored. Or if she did find her audiences, she'd end up as another Bjork/Tori/PJ.

LOL, Ai. I can hardly imagine.

Angela Aki would have a chance if she follows the Sarah Mclachlan route with the ballads and adult radio invasion. Her power ballads are so listenable and western enough for Americans. Yuna Ito also has big potential.

Utada's chance was wasted. It was devastating to watch her album not climb charts and take over the world by storm. I will always hate Def Jam for it. Amazing but very underpromoted album.
