Kenjirō Yamashita

Yamashita dances and acts with Sandaime J Soul Brothers, a group that expects both, and he came up through Gekidan Exile. What separates him is the third skill: talking. On radio he is a different animal from the man on stage, looser and quicker. Two Japan Record Awards with the group, and he still holds a room with only a microphone.
