ARTIST 04 JQ (Nulbarich)

No. 1
Hit Man
Gang Starr feat.
My favorite Gang Starr's (Gang Starr) unexpected new album, and my favorite song with Q-Tip (Q-Tip). I can't tell you how many times I've listened to this album despite its recent release.

No.2
Lights Out
Gang Starr feat.
It was Gangster's new album that successfully dragged me into the hip-hop swamp, which I did not expect in the second half of the year.

No.03
God Is Love
Common feat. Leon Bridges & Jonathan McReynolds
This song is from Common's long-awaited new album. It's very Common-like, but with gospel added to it, and I'm listening to it a lot on the album.

No.04
Cry Cry Cry
Coldplay
My favorite song from the Coldplay album released this year.

No.05
Circles
Post Malone
Post Malone, who I have been hooked on since I saw him live once. This new album showed me his bottom line. I loved it. Here is a song from the album.

No.06
BOOM
X Ambassadors
It boomed within Nalbarich and I listened to it a lot (laughs).

No.07
Everybody Wants To Rule the World
Tears for Fears
You heard it a lot this year at parties and other events. It is my favorite song that I hear unexpectedly in many places. Especially this year, I think it was played a lot.

No.08
You Need To Calm Down
Taylor Swift
It was played a lot on the streets and on TV in LA, so it's stuck in my head. I love Taylor Swift, so there's that, too.

No.09
Honesty
Pink Sweat$
Some of it was played quite a bit in LA, but it's pretty punchy on the hook, so it's still in my ears. It's cool.

No.10
Checklist
MAX feat. Chromeo
I have always loved Chromeo, but when I heard that it was featured on MAX this year, I checked it out and was able to reconfirm my love for Chromeo.
The most impressive music news of the year
Gangster's album release. I didn't expect to hear a new Gangster album, so I was quite up in the air.
Artists to watch for next year
Mura Masa. I like him to begin with, but he is going to release another new album at the beginning of next year, so I am paying attention to him, or rather looking forward to it.
What are your ambitions for the coming year?
I want to make the quality of my songs and music even more ideal. It's an apprenticeship, lol.

PROFILE

Totally produced by singer/songwriter JQ. After releasing their 1st ALBUM "Guess Who?" in October 2016, they achieved a Budokan live concert in just 2 years. The show sold out immediately. They have already performed on over 50 stages at festivals in Japan, China, Korea, Taiwan, and other countries. The groovy sound produced by JQ's beat-making style, which is based on live music and sampling, blends with bilingual vocals and sublimates into an emotional and pop original sound.
