泉まくら aka Izumi Makura.  My Room My Stage was probably the top selling rap album out of Japan in the end of 2013 but it’s not what you would expect out of ordinary rap albums.  Most of the beats across the album were even made by top of the line beat producers, but this album is very friendly and safe to the standard Japanese Pop sound that most peoples ears have grown to love.  Its not all  downtempo melodic pop choruses that you would expect out of a Jpop album either which is what makes this album and Izumi Makura so interesting to listen to.  Examples are included in the youtube playlist included below
