Editor's note

Namie Amuro, Okinawa's dance-pop trailblazer

From teen idol to experimental pop icon, she shaped Japanese music for two decades.

For the early energy, try "Sexy Girl" or "Respect the Power Of Love." The later, weirder side comes through on tracks like "Luvotomy" from that 2012 album.

She started as a 14-year-old in Okinawa's Super Monkey's, then built a catalog that moved from pure dance-pop like "So Crazy" to the more adventurous textures of her 2012 comeback album "Uncontrolled." Her final tour in 2018, "Namie Amuro Final Tour 2018 - Finally," closed a chapter for a generation of listeners who grew up with her voice.

She debuted with Super Monkey's in the early '90s, married TRF dancer Masaharu Maruyama in 1997, and took a hiatus starting in 2010. When she returned in 2012 with "Uncontrolled," the sound had shifted toward something more experimental than her earlier hits.
