Which company is releasing her album? I mean, even with Def Jam Island behind her, Utada don't have much publicity there. She might have the chance if she have more appearance on TV, but again, is her understanding of English up to that of the US TV, not forgetting the style they talk in? She might shame herself more than bringing any glory.
And to talk about success, why don't we look at how RAIN ended up, still trying to have a piece of the chinese market.

oh.. i didnt know she wrote her songs cuz i just listen to it. and i know about black diamond. but if u mean good stuffs, try listening to suite chic, where she paired up with a few hip-hop r&b artistes. they release an album and a remix. that's the best from namie, better than her music now.
and, many japanese musician wrote their own songs too and are equally talented, but they are just less lucky. namie has a huge music label behind her, where they only promote namie, ayumi and koda. do not be offended as im not saying bad things about namie, but believe me, her label can spend way much more than other labels. look at how they promote koda and ayu when they were at their prime.

Erm, IchyaParadise. Namie has one child only right?
Anyway, she's hot, her songs are nice, but there was a period where her career went so low isnt it? If u do remember. So i wonder why she became popular again.

as a fan of ayu, i would like to add that she's very innovative to make her set looks perfect for this weather, i.e make full use of the rain

Do they mean overall category as in the clothing or best-looking in denim? I can't trust the translation.
