I was living in Okinawa, Japan when this awesome single came out. I was 14 at the time in 1996, I remember seeing this on BET Video Vibrations I still have this video recorded on tape. You dont see many mainstream Asian singers and I just think he is amazing
Ghost In Japan, he is very well known. He has sold over 20 million records in Japan and is known as the “King of J-Pop” or “King of Japanese R&B”. He brought Western music (American) to Japan. That’s why many Japanese are singing like us (Black Americans) and wearing their hair like us. He also has a man over-appreciation for Black people (which as a Black person, I love)
@@JLPerryTV fr? Damn that’s very impressive I didn’t know that, I think he’s seriously underrated and deserves a lot more recognition and I do appreciate araki for shouting this dude out in Jojo.
Ghost It’s a shame that Sony didn’t promote him well in America. His first English album “Sunshine Moonlight” was straight up 🔥. If a Black singer would have put out that album, it would have been huge success. Same with other English language albums “Nothing But Your Love” and “Time to Share”. I believe he wasn’t given a fair chance in America but he was Asian and no one who was Asian was crossing over into American radio.
I'm a jojo fan but i didn't even know jotaro liked him lmao i just typed "just the two of us Japanese" to look after japanese translated cover of this song
Jotaro Kujo's favorite musician.
haha may or may not be why im listening to this right now-
Psychic Beat hits the mark for part 3
Just saying jotaro has great taste in music
RIGHT!?
Frrr
YEASSSSS
!!!!
No way this is the first comment I see after looking that up.
I'm imagining Jotaro dancing round his study with this blasting out of his speakers
Jotaro has amazing music taste

U remember the big sample on this??!
@@kimmiblanco3572 bill withers "just the two of us"
Lateshia Childs nah sis u heard the so so def remix?
@@kimmiblanco3572 This is a whole cover. Sampling is just taking a small portion of the song.
Lucky you
jotaro got me interested in this guys existence
Jotaro likes good music
1996... such a definitive year for R&B and Hip Hop
so we're all here for jotaro? good to know
Grover Washington's saxophone solos would've made this a masterpiece. Nonetheless, this is a great rendition of one of his well-known works.
Oh shit i didnt notice this was the same song at the beginning
Kujo Jotaro approves this song
First time listen to this song on 1995. Still love it.
Holy cow. This is a great cover from a Grover Washington Jr song. Nice. Last time I heard anyone else sing or sampled this song was Will Smith.
The first ever Toshinobu Kubota song I ever listened to!
I love this! He's underrated.
Toshinobu Kubota is so soulful
the yakuza is so soulful.
Still loving it after more than 20 years ♥️
R&B Vibes 😍😍
He did City Pop, then R&B, then Rap and now J-pop, he is such a genius.
@@leoynadamas7227 He's so Genius 🔥👍👍
what a damn groovy cover,, yare yare
I love this song I remember it back in remember 90's
Beautiful version❤❤❤
Sadao Kujo taught his son well, at least before he went on tour.
I love Caron Wheeler's voice!!!
너무 좋아~ 💋💕💜💗💜
Regretfully I cant find this version in Spotify...😐
heis so underrated
Only in America. His “Sunshine, Moonlight” album was one of the best albums ever
