Born in the most southern Japanese island, Okinawa, the 23 year old relocated to Tokyo at a young age where she was drawn to the world of music, especially in the genre of soul and gospel. Besides her studies, her college days were dedicated to a dance club where she was part of a team. Around the same time she really started to explore her singing abilities in her own way and last year she excelled to become the winner at STAR BAPE® SEARCH audition held by NIGO® and PHARRELL WILLIAMS(The Neptunes).
In the middle of 2008, one of the top US music producers, PHARRELL WILLIAMS(The Neptunes) and his close friend NIGO®, the producer of the street clothing brand A BATHING APE® and is also a member of TERIYAKI BOYZ® (theme song from the film “Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift”) came together to hold an audition STAR BAPE® SEARCH to seek a female HIPHOP/R&B artist.
The audition was aimed at locating a DIVA who can make an impact in the music industry not only in the Far East but globally. The grand winner was to release a record with a major label, be fully produced and backed by PHARRELL WILLIAMS(The Neptunes) and NIGO®. The audition attracted entries from all over the Asian countries in hope for this dream opportunity.
On 13th August STAR BAPE® SEARCH FINAL STAGE was held at UNIT Daikanyama, Japan and the winner was chosen, Manami.
"Your love is my cake And I Sing to top it off Sweet layered tastes With eye brow raising Surprises All through the middle It tickles me a little when you say "How would you like me now?"
Fun love is a powerful swing A smiling thing that take us on An exhilarating ride Reminding us We used to know we could fly When we remember the thrill Of feeling
A lie blocked that Then another on top of love Until dreams were smothered To the point that Taking another breath Used up all the strength we had left And we learned to live and wait around Wondering why We even applied the effort to try And sing along With a done so wrong life
Befriend a surprise
Rebirth day Partly Ascended Reopened eyes A kiss not fake Delicious dressing Served on a bed That serves as a plate
Your love is my cake And I Sing to top it off Sweet layered tastes With eye brow raising Surprises All through the middle It tickles me a little when you say "How would you like me now?"
He took to the streets shouting Pumping his fist in the air A failed comedian Who's one and only joke had just gotten him curious stares The punch line stuck in his mind He'd gone completely blind With insanity He repeated it endlessly Hoping to find a laugh People witnessing his melt down Gained courage And followed Letting out all of their pent up sorrows Eventually He went down in history As the brave man who came out of nowhere To save tomorrow
With his rallying cry
"Bring back Big Fat Hope"
In other words May even your mistakes work out for you fabulously Have an unexpectedly successful rest of the week
We present to you Unconscious In My Dreams(U.I.M.D.) which consist of J. Carter(Music Producer/Vocalists) & Brazille(Rapper). We understand what good music is. J. Carter is well trained in music and Brazille knows how to rap and do it successfully. Our theory on good music is it has to hit you in gut and the heart and it flows up to your head. The kick and snare groove has to be on point, along with the instruments and vocalists. But sometimes it's not always about that. It's about the vocalist and the music taking you on a musical journey until the song is over. We have many songs but only one posted at the moment. Thank you for your time & enjoy! -Unconscious In My Dreams(U.I.M.D.)
