I could write about this on Twitter or Instagram to raise awareness, but I worry that I’ll just be seen as “that artist who exposes stuff,” and it might close more doors.To be honest, sometimes I really feel fed up with how things work in the Japanese industry.

What’s more frustrating is that I couldn’t get interview opportunities unless they went through the label.
In Japan, it’s common for artists or labels to pay in order to be interviewed. But because my label didn’t pay, I ended up losing a few media opportunities for my work.

While they helped promote the release at first, they haven’t supported any of my activities since.

But tbh, I feel that Japan’s music industry doesn’t really value artists who do everything on their own like this.I released my album through a label called "ss" , which is somewhere between a major and indie label.
