Naoki Kobayashi of EXILE and Sandaime J Soul Brothers has tested positive for the novel coronavirus COVID-19.

In a statement released by LDH JAPAN, Naoki was in poor physical condition on June 3. He underwent a PCR test and was found to be positive on June 4. He is currently under the watch of medical staff.

This week’s episode of “Shibuya Note” was part of their “Presents” series. It featured KID FRESINO. He represents the next generation of the Japanese hip hop scene, with his popularity spreading outside of that genre. This episode of “Shibuya Note” marks his first time performing on TV.

On June 9, Tokyo Jihen will release their new album, “Ongaku.” Ahead of the album’s release, the band has released a teaser for it. The teaser serves as a music video of sorts for the opening and closing tracks on the album, “Kujaku” and “Ippuku”, respectively. “Kujaku” is a laidback, jazzy hip hop song, while “Ippuku” leans more towards dance pop.

In the video, Shiina Ringo is joined by the Osaka sister dance duo SIS. The trio are dressed alike, almost like a set of triplets. Their looks flucuate between masculine-leaning tailored blazers and more feminine sequin boyshorts and over the knee Gucci boots. Check it out below!
