My Take
Okay, that voice. Ryuji Imaichi opens his mouth and out comes this low, smoky, slightly rough croon that just glues you to the spot, and for a J-pop frontman it's almost unfair how soulful it lands. As one of the lead vocalists of Sandaime J Soul Brothers, he's the guy who clicks the whole stage into focus the second he starts singing. I love that he's a Kyoto kid, because somehow that quiet, slightly mysterious cool fits him perfectly. What gets me is the gap: ice-cold and untouchable under the lights, then this goofy, boyish grin slips out and the whole tough-guy act melts. And the man has a look, fully committed to his own style, vocals and fashion alike. I respect that kind of conviction.
