[R00G00]

[MizGeneSplicer]

Gawd he's funny. so that's what a white guy with a fake japanese accent sound like tryinng to act like a rapper. lol. That a damn good artist though

[z44070]

very funny

[killbbob]

the interviewer makes my stomach fuck i hate him!!!

[singes]

Omg this guy does everything!!!!!!!!!!

[OnlyDoniaUKnow]

how is James Jean your neighbor?! you're just a lucky guy Ken!!

[solaryang]

he's so handsome!!

[jcastillo81]

He is an amazing artist AND plays trumpet???

I suck.

[erisheri]

hahahahaha great interview!

And what he did to that sketch! My heart stopped for a second there.

[gardnerrrr]

[hakissej]

I literary cried when he crumbled his precious drawing

[lukygirl314]

Thanks for this segment. I love James Jean's art work... it's fantastic. I don't blame Ken for wanting Jame's "origami". Imagine all the beautiful trash he's thrown out. He needs to auction them off on ebay or something. If you need anyone to do that, contact me.. I can do it for you :)

[chooooooo]

good lord, james jean can play the trumpet, too? hot.

[kerrydennehy]

Very cool. I like James Jean's work but I like this Ken Tanaka too. This is the first I've seen him but he strikes me as a very funny, very smart guy. I like the musical interludes and the singing. I'm gonna watch more of your videos, Ken.

[RandomPath]

HAHAHA 'This one is oh-kay....'

[reallyaPigeon]

i love the work of james jean. i am currently curating it (independently, with no ones permission) in my school. its great!

[luc444]

Does anyone know the name of the wines which James is creating the lables for? In the interview they mention Grateful Pallet but that is only the main company and not the name of the wine itself.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[helpmefindparents]

visit james' sight, see the links.

[hayyalife]

interesting. wacky. perfect.

[luc444]

Good art.

Good Interview.

GOOD FUN>

[42powers]

Sad. Maybe you're filming good stuff (Jean), but just really sad, man. Irritating to the core, and inevitably depressing. You're blaming this on parental rejection?! -

[beccarmagie]

I love James Jean, But fucking hell i hate that reporter, hes a total fanny =/

[TheOffKid]

I will watch more of your videos later, 田中様。But, since I do not know the situation right now, good luck!

[PinkBanana2u]

James is a really good artist..

I love his work.. x)

[shouwa52]

私も日本で育った外国人です。ご両親見つかると良いですね。今後­ビデオ期待して待っています！

[lesebb]

james jean is a great artist!

[helpmefindparents]

This is true,lesebb. He is great.

[Theobrothers]

Possibly my favourite video so far Ken, you have just introduced me to a great artist and I appreciate that very much.

It's nice to see there is actually some incredible talent in LA amongst all that which is over hyped.

I may have to visit someday.

[helpmefindparents]

Thanks, Theobrothers. I am very glad you like it. Yes, I have met many interesting and talented people in Los Angeles. James is also a very good and kind person.

[lesebb]

you should do a video of david choe

[helpmefindparents]

Yes,lesebb. I am working on this.

[lesebb]

wow your fast with replying haha

[channeIreview]

Howdy Partner!! Congratulations!!

[helpmefindparents]

Thanks, partner:)

[welcome2mytube]

yeah im sad........... he is fake he is an actor he is some other character in some other channels

[helpmefindparents]

Don't be sad, welcome2mytube. Don't worry. James Jean is not an actor. He is a very nice artist.

[LowSociety]

I just saw you in "Shoot 'Em Up" speaking perfect English.

[asuranrocks]

were you in heroes season 1?

[helpmefindparents]

Hi, asuranrocks. It sounds like you saw my twin brother from video #13. He was in the first episode of Heroes I think.

[smurfmanser]

how interesting

[RapidCycling07]

it was shocking to see you in the movie Shoot'Em Up, towards the end...that movie really kicked ass...how famous are you man?

[helpmefindparents]

Thanks, rapidcycling07. It sounds like you saw my twin brother from video #13. He was in a movie

[babamoto]

Ken-sama, one day I will buy you okidog or falafel on melrose, ok?

Jya ne...

[helpmefindparents]

Thanks babamoto, I have never had a real okidog.

[ender81]

when you hung the picture up there were many manga in the background. What are the different manga you like? Do you have a lot? maybe you can do a video about that.

[helpmefindparents]

Yes, maybe I will do a video about manga someday. I like many manga, such as Gegege no kitarro and 20th century boys and also Genshiken. I have a lot of manga at home.

[TkyoSam]

[helpmefindparents]

Thanks, misterp. Yes I am lucky to have such a nice neighbor.

[channeIreview]

Ken, I really like what you have doing in the past couple videos introducing us to these cool people.

[helpmefindparents]

Thank you, channei-san. I am glad you have enjoyed meeting my friends.

[veloboy]

Ken Tanaka, you are a WILD MAN!!

[helpmefindparents]

Thanks, veloboy. Nobody has ever called me that.

[AndySan]

Real or not, Ken Tanaka's still a very nice man!!!

[channeIreview]

Ken Tanaka is REALLY a very nice man.

[potvinandy]

Ken, you look like a humming bird at the beginning of the video waving your arms, coming up from the bottom of the picture. lol! This was a very entertaining video.

[helpmefindparents]

Thanks, potvinandy. You were the only one who noticed my humminbird immitation.

[ShordansWorld]

Another great entry, KT!

I absolutely loved the freestyle at the end!

Let me know when the album comes out!!! :)

-Shordan

[helpmefindparents]

Thanks, Shordan. I will let you know :)

[guacamolecestsibon]

Heya..How have you been?

I absolutely and thoroughly enjoyed watching your past few videos ..I like the fact that i am meeting newer talented people through your videos..I absolutely love jazz and art.

[helpmefindparents]

Hi, guacamolecestsibon. I have been okay, but I have the flu now. I am glad to hear that you like the art :)

[0Linerider0forever0]

I am sorry to say this but Ken Tanaka is just a character made up by David Ury, google him, ken tanaka isnt real.

[IamFatnickc]

Please bear in mind the disclaimer on Ken's profile, and just enjoy watching the story unfold!

[zenhill]

hey man, I hate to tell you this but... Santa isn't ... real.. yeah I know , its quite a shock to all of us, go check it out on Google, stay strong.

[gh3770android]

Santa is real you bastard! i just got a bunch of presents from him and he replied to my letter. why the hell would you want ppl to think he's not real? is it because you did not get anything this x-mass?

[helpmefindparents]

I agree, gh3770 android. Santa gave me a present too. Zenhill is a very nice man, but I worry that he has been misled by some anti-Santa conspicary theory blog he found on google.

[gh3770android]

sorry if i sounded angry. its just x-mass is my favorite holiday because of all the free presents from Santa

[helpmefindparents]

No problem, gh3770android. I understand. Santa is a very nice man.

[IamFatnickc]

Thank you very much for making this video! It was very amusing to me.

[helpmefindparents]

Thanks,IamFatnickc. I am glad you were amused.

[uni000ver000sal]

Amazing Ken, you and JJ should do a rapp section together!

That was good!

I think Johnatan and Linda have moved to Ostralia!

[helpmefindparents]

Thanks for reposting your comment, uni000. I am sorry for the problem. Yes, maybe James and I can go on tour:) If you see a Jonathan and Linda Smith in Australia please do let me know.

[Rutheeyesofachild]

You are too funny...:)

[helpmefindparents]

Oh, thank you, Rutheeyesofachild-san.
