Question

Answer 1

If you stay at Shinjuku, I highly recommend Century Southern Tower. I have stayed there around 5 times, and the hotel is well maintained, clean, modern, convenient (3 minute walk from JR Shinjuku station), and has a nice view.


as for rap, not sure

good luck

Answer 2

I am in Japan right now, actually. Japan is great! I can't say enough about the people, the culture, the social structure, the nature, the history, and the national character. They are all so unique, and yet in other ways, they almost mirror the west.

The people are world class. Polite, respectful, and interested in new ideas. The youth are also more apt to adapt the new ideas. Western music is big here so if you become even just semi-popular in the US as a rapper, you could be huge here. The youth are easily influenced by things coming out of the west, and especially the US. But at the same time, there are those that are still clinging to the old traditions, which makes for a rich and deep culture.

Their culture is tied very closely to their history. A lot of ritual and form in almost everything they do. Going to pray at a shrine or temple, building a house, or even just interacting with co-workers. The Japanese people take great care and pride in their work which is why most everything they do is near perfect. Just look at their car industry. That pride comes from the very well grounded sense of who they are and where they are going as a national and a unique culture.

National character of the Japanese is very strong, but as I said earlier, the heavy influence from the west is threatening their identity as a people. They seem to be fighting the fact that in order to survive in this global community they need to accept outside influences. Their reluctance to change can be seen in the attitude towards importing rice, to send Japanese troops abroad.

I would talk about their educational system, but I don't want to seem like I have no respect for it, but it was developed in the post WWII era and still reflects that attitude. Students are treated as drones and not people. They are pumped full of information, but not taught to use the information wisely. And what does that get you? A bunch of drones unsatisfied with the status quo, and nobody knows how to change it because that is all they have known. You will notice a huge difference in character and thinking style between a person schooled in Japan and a person schooled overseas. Main difference is the analytical abilities, and self expression.

Well, I hope that gives you some sort of idea of the Japanese people.

Hope to see your name on a recording label in the future. Best of luck to you.

ive lived in tokyo and i love it so much!! when i graduate this year i think i am going to temple university japan in tokyo for maybe about an year....ive only been to tokyo in japan, but i love it. it is so high tech and modern, and some people say it is nyc but on speed, and i think it is true. the people are so nice, and their service is excellent......their culture is so interesting, but at the same time can be a little weird.... foods good, their transportation is way better than nyc, and theres so much to do there...but yea i was just wondering, do you want to be a rapper in japan or do you want to make it big somewhere else as a rapper and then visit japan?

Answer 4

it depends what part of Japan, personally. I was in Okinawa and I loved it! Being part of the military has perks and downfalls, but overall, it's a culture shock. The people are totally polite, too! For rap, they listen to a lot of it in Okinawa (because of the service members) but I'm not really fond of the music, no offense. I'd say go there- you'll love it! I'd do anything to go back.
