Kind of related since he was one of those old guys in the Build music video (hogging all the screen time from Beverly).
I dunno, that's kind of a bummer since the guy's clearly produced some good music. I remember knowing about him back when Namie Amuro was really popular.
But at the same time, I'm not super surprised by the allegations either.
Is the Hollywood #metoo revolution making any sort of impact in Japan? Given it's Japan, I'm guessing not, but you never know.

#metoo hasn't really made any waves as the industry can be both annoyingly closed and yet incredibly quick to throw people under the bus. It is just so easy to get blacklisted that there really isn't anyone to champion the cause.

C'mon I get it. Cheating on someone is pretty low but I don't think a person ought to end their career over it.

It's a cultural thing though. It's like when idols get caught with their boyfriend and it causes a shitstorm.
