THE KIMI KATO SHOW with Jeremiah Featuring Mariya Takeuchi | The Queen of City Pop and Japanese Singer-Songwriter
Mariya Takeuchi has sold over 16 million records, becoming one of Japan’s best-selling and most beloved music artists.
Despite a temporary hiatus in the 1980s and a relatively low international profile during her early years, she has gained an unexpected global following in recent years, mainly through her now-legendary hit "Plastic Love," which sparked a resurgence of interest in city pop outside Japan.
Mariya has rightfully earned her place among the most influential female figures in Japan’s musical history annals. Although she emerged during the city pop boom, her music transcends the genre, fusing folk, jazz, and soft rock elements into a signature style that feels hers. Her smooth, delicate vocals conceal an emotional depth that touches listeners, drawing them into the lively stories embedded in her songs.
Her husband is Tatsuro Yamashita, a singer-songwriter and record producer.
