It's that time of year again! This rate celebrates the year in J-Pop music with some of ATRL's favorite J-Pop divas. Instead of the usual four artist rates we do, I thought it would be nice to change things up this year and make this an eight artist rate to add some variety. The participating artists for this years rate are three of the four legendary divas Ayumi Hamasaki, Koda Kumi, and Namie Amuro plus Kana Nishino, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, BoA, E-Girls, and Itano Tomomi. This rate marks the debut of E-Girls and Itano Tomomi as they have never been in a rate before. Each artist will have 5 songs chosen for a total of 40 songs.
The tracks selected are a combination of singles and fan-favorites in order to easily introduce new listeners to eight amazing artists and, possibly, an entirely new genre.
Within the PM Friendly List tag all song titles are hyper linked to their respective video courtesy of jpopsuki.tv or YouTube (remember you're only rating the song, though).
Note: jpopsuki.tv slays but the server can be slow at times, but they're the best streaming site for J-Pop videos so please bear with it!
Rules & Guidelines:
Assign each track a score between 1 and 10; decimal point scores are accepted,
but only those to the tenth place (i.e 9.5, 8.3). If you assign a score of 0, it will be
rounded up to a 1.
Send your rates to me via private message and do not post them in the thread!
PLEASE use the PM friendly list at the end of this post, I beg of you!!
Rates will be due December 15th, 2014 by midnight / 12:00 AM EST.
