Masayoshi Okumura

Okay, this guy's résumé is borderline ridiculous, and I mean that as a compliment. Masayoshi "Okkun" Okumura made his name as the beatboxer and vocalist in the a cappella group RAG FAIR, doing that whole thing where one mouth becomes a drum kit, and somewhere along the way he also picked up a certified weather forecaster qualification and went on to graduate study in education at Yokohama National University. He has also served a term in the House of Councillors. Honestly, I came in assuming "music dude" and got whiplash. But the more I sit with it, the more it tracks: making people smile with your voice, helping them read the sky, thinking hard about kids and society, it's all the same impulse to be useful to other people. Not just clever, genuinely earnest. I respect the heck out of that.
