13 Crystal Kay

The one and only Crystal Kay is the guest today in this very special episode of the Japan Station podcast.

A singer, songwriter, and actress, Crystal Kay has been singing for just about as long as she's been able to speak. In fact, her first credit is at the age of four when she used her vocal talents in a song for a commercial promoting the PC Engine Duo game console (known as the TurboDuo in the U.S.). Crystal released her debut single in 1999 at the age of 13 and in the two decades since then she's sold millions of albums and produced numerous chart-topping singles. Her positive attitude, incredible talent, and status as one of the earliest artists of mixed race to rise to mainstream fame in Japan have earned Crystal many fans around the world and turned her into a role model for many.

In this episode we discuss:

  • When it was that Crystal realized she was a source of inspiration for other mixed race individuals in Japan
  • How Crystal deals with negativity
  • Crystal's relationship with her mother
  • Crystal's thoughts on the 20th anniversary of her major debut as a singer
  • Crystal's connection to the legendary Japanese singer Misora HIbari
  • Crystal's daily routine
  • And more!

You won't be able to help feel positive after listening to this episode.
