I just came here to say that I can't stop listening to "Motion" It's SO GOOD.

Motion isn't bad but I prefer Won't Leave Without A Fight. I noticed that I prefer mainly the b-side of her singles.

This story sounds weird.

that's explain why she dissappear. I have been waiting for her to come with new release. But nothing so far.
So sad. She is really promising. Multitalent.

Wow, I'm shocked to hear about this. Very surprised. No wonder why Mariya has been 'invisible' in recent months!!! :O

Anyways, that is not good to hear. Have to agree, she's really talented. I can't believe how she somewhat wasted that potential. But then again, the possible risks of being in the entertainment industry - this isn't the first, and surely this isn't going to be the last...

Mariya Nishiuchi Denies Rumors Of Retirement

Mariya Nishiuchi was widely seen as a rising star in the entertainment industry, both as a singer and an actress. And then she disappeared.

It has been over a year since Nishiuchi has been active, prompting some to wonder whether she had decided to retire. The singer laid to rest these rumors, stating in an interview to reporters that this will not be the case.

According to the tabloid magazine Shukan Bunshun, Rising Production, the agency Nishiuchi is signed with, will not be renewing its contract with Nishiuchi. The contract is set to expire in March.

Further, the magazine published a report last year claiming that Nishiuchi and the agency's president were involved in an altercation. This played a role in the singer getting blacklisted by the company which has prevented her from getting work while still under its management.

When asked by reporters for the magazine to comment on the matter, Nishiuchi said that she was not thinking about retiring, but was advised by her lawyer not to speak about her contract. She alluded to having a side to the story that she was not able to talk about at this time

Despite her inactivity, Nishiuchi expressed a desire to continue bringing entertaining content to her fans.

I hope she'll find a better agence next time.

We really miss Mariya, have to agree that she needs to look at a better agency. Hopefully Mariya doesn't sign with Sony!

It's unfortunate that things have become rather messy with her. I'm doubtful another agency will take a chance on her anytime soon with those allegations of assaulting the boss of the agency hanging over her head.

Sad, because she had potential.

Good voice, good visuals, it's such a waste.
