Xinlisupreme と綴ってシンリシュプリームだとか。2019年の J-Pop

The note that I played on my guitar the first time I used an amp in overdrive… I felt like that single distorted note was expressing my whole life at once. That’s the kind of music. – Xinlisupreme

Xinlisupreme – J-Pop

I Love Youと口ずさむ歌手にみたいには歌えないけれど、切なくて淡い気持ちが僕もある。英語も出来ないし、仕事も学校も辞めたけど君が好きだった。だから口笛吹いてたんだ。君が好きだと口からこぼれないように。部屋に引きこもっていたんだ、亀みたいに自分守るために。・・・2019年のJPOPは亀でした。

Two years ago, Japanese record label canceled the production of Xinlisupreme`s works and terminated the contract with Xinlisupreme because Xinlisupreme created a protest song ‘I Am Not Shinzo Abe’ to criticize Shinzo Abe, a prime minister of Japan. It has now become a taboo in Japan to criticize Shinzo Abe in music and other creative activities. In 2015, Southern All Stars, a popular band in Japan, was made to apologize for publically ridiculing him on TV.  Also in 2016, there were fierce repercussions on the internet against the appearance of Aki Okuda, a leader of SEALDs, a student group to protest against Shinzo Abe, in the Fuji Rock, the biggest music festival in Japan. Even the phrase ‘Do not politicize music’ became a top trend on Japan’s twitter. We all have the right to freedom of expression when criticizing Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, an extreme right-wing politician who allows discrimination, social gaps and nuclear power plants.

With this Album, Xinlisupreme want to criticize Shinzo Abe and also change the atmosphere of the Japanese society which does not allow music to become political. Xinlisupreme hope is that this album will stimulate a discussion for the change.
