You should definitely check out Tokyo Jihen. While they are rock, and pop, its usually a mix. Their first album is more rock, their second album is like rock jazz, and their newest album is more pop/rock. So I guess if you are looking for pop, check out their newer album, Variety. They are fronted by Shiina Ringo who was also a solo artist. Check out their wiki here:

j-pop:
angela aki - plays the piano, love her songs. sang for final fantasy xii and blood+
ai otsuka - crazy fast songs, lovely ballads
anna tsuchiya - true rocker to the core, the inspiration for the manga character nana oosaki. she sings for the anime under the name ANNA TSUCHIYA inspi' NANA
ami suzuki - techno/trance-y music
chihiro onitsuka - GORGEOUS ballad singer. i mean the ballads, not her (though she isn't that bad-looking)
do as infinity - one of the (if not THE) best j-rocker bands in the world. sang for inuyasha
tomiko van - ex-vocalist for do as infinity. her works are surprisingly not rock, but more pop/ballad/jazzy
ERIKA - famous actress from taiyou no uta and one litre of tears. recently just debut
high and mighty color - another good j-rocker band whose songs were used for gundam and bleach
ishikawa chiaki - her songs are kinda trancy, but some are very ballady.
see-saw - band with ishikawa chiaki as vocalist. once again, trancy-ish, but with a small hint of celtic to it. they sang for .hack//sign
kaoru amane - ERIKA's alias for her single she released (kaoru amane was the character erika portrayed on the j-dorama taiyou no uta, which was also the single's name). though she only released one single, i recommend it
koda kumi - ero-kakkoix singer that releases alot of urban/hip-hop/pop songs, as well as sometimes-good-sometimes-meh ballads
mika nakashima - very jazzy singer, mainly sings ballads and jazz. her songs are very very pretty. she also released two singles and an album under nana oosaki, whom she acted as in the live-action movie
mink - a korean j-pop singer. also jazz/ballad singer, but with a lower voice. highly recommend her song omajinai. HIGHLY recommend
misono - koda kumi's older sister. has a more rock edge to her songs.
namie amuro - another hip-pop/urban singer, but without the ero-kakkoix image to herself. started out as pop, then progressed into more hip-pop
NANA starring MIKA NAKASHIMA - alias for mika nakashima's rock songs under the character nana oosaki
olivia lufkin - alternative singer with interestingly varying songs. the inspiration for the manga character reira serizawa (the 'opposite' of nana oosaki). sings for the anime under the name olivia inspi' reira
rie fu - also plays the piano. sang the first ending for bleach
rurutia - new-age singer with a soft, delicate voice. very underrated
sifow - trance/pop gyaaru. also underrated
the brilliant green - yet another j-rock band. though i've only heard a few songs, i do recommend them
tomoko kawase - vocalist for the brilliant green. she released two solo projects (tommy february6 and tommy heavenly6)
tommy february6 - very 80s-esque music. tommy february6 is a name derived from her birthday and tommy (her nickname). known for her geeky librarian glasses and her love for flasks.
tommy heavenly6 - the sophisticated, rockin' alter-ego of tommy february6. she loves junk food...and she rocks (XD i honestly can't say anything after that...)
utada hikaru - one of ayu's 'rivals' in the music business. has released many good songs. highly recommended
utada - her name for when she released exodus, one of her english albums
cubic u - her other name for when she released precious, her first english album and her first album overall. this is pre-first love (her first japanese album)
younha - a korean j-pop singer who (once again) plays the piano. her songs have a light-rock feel to it. she's sang for bleach and (more recently) the maple story anime
YUI - guitarist. HIGHLY recommended. sang for bleach and acted in the movie rendition of taiyou no uta (where she released a single for it)
yuna ito - pop singer with many ballads, but she is working in alot of pop songs. acted as mika's counterpart in the live-action movie nana
REIRA starring YUNA ITO - yuna ito's alias while releasing nana-related songs. oddly, unlike mika, she did not release a seperate album, but instead added her reira songs to her debut album

c-pop:
F.I.R. - stands for Fairyland In Reality. also stands for the first letter for each of the band member's western name. highly recommend lydia. very addicting XD

k-pop:
clazziquai project - k-pop group. their songs vary. highly recommend the album Love Child of the Century



(umm...yea, that's a long list XD)

I don't know maybe its just me but I like ayaka iida, as of now i suppose she is known for her songs I Believe which is the theme song for the 2006 Japanese drama Rondo, her song Mikazuki has become quite popular too, and then there Why which is the theme song for Crisis Core... I think what i really like about her is that her voice is unique and different from most of the others singers I've heard... oh and she a J-Pop singer... I think that is...
