EMI MARIA / I gotta -Summer kiss-

[3Achilleus]

素晴らしい!!。クオリティーが高い

[3Achilleus]

素晴らしい!!。

[NikkoArai]

She's not African American, she's Papua New Guinean...

[StrawberriKissxX]

@NikkoArai papau new guinean is a nationality.. not a race her features are of some that is of black descent.

[NikkoArai]

@StrawberriKissxX Black descent yes, African American no. African American in most cases refers directly to those of Black American nationality/ethnicity.

[patchgoli]

@StrawberriKissxX her race is Melanesian. If that's what you mean by black decent. If you were to compare African and Melanesian genome they are not the same. Melanesian is completely different and entirely it's own race.

[godley2]

Her mannerisms are that of a brown american woman, in other words, a so called african american. Regardless, her japanese upbringing rises to the surface showcasing a feminine glow that is blinding...

[Ralleighen]

[BlackoreanIndie]

what is she exactly?

is she japanese?

[knightabraxas]

i she looks like she half and half of african and japanese descent.

[KikiBorbeleta]

I would like to say shes spanish and she just learned japanese, I'm only saying that because i have a friend who looks exactly like her but shes from Honduras

[verbalwho]

no she's half papa new guinean and half japanese. raised in Kobe she was very small.

[hitori05]

OMG! She is flipping GORGEOUS! It is indeed good to see a black female who is bilingual. hottest thing ever. I don't care if she's half...that's awesome ;)

[Ralleighen]

You should look up crystal kay. She's half black, half japanese, and she is bilingual as well. Fluent in english, fluent in japanese. :)

[hitori05]

did it. and LOVING it :)

[brianandrewspoelhof]

Crystal Kay is half back and half Korean, not Japanese.

[Ralleighen]

Fellow youtube user, having seen many such comments 'correcting' people as to certain peoples' ethnic origins, I have only the following to say to you:

Lol.

[kinyerg]

she's from Papua New Guinea but, was raised in Kobe, Japan ;D

[reiko12097]

this song sounds like a 4 seasons of loneliness from BOys 2 men songs..

[DT5236]

lovely

[hiphopkano]

shes so awesome~~

shes like second Crystal Kay:D

[missemijoy]

I love her! And we have the same name ^___^

[619reggie]

if i was in Japan, I would holla at her no doubt.

[619reggie]

yeah yeah Whats popping fellas? she straight. She looke more blk lady to me. when I was young, I aint seen any mixed kid like her in japan. Things been changed I guess.

[pianorina23693]

she's pretty and she has a nice voice! This pv is kind of boring though...

[umi138]

相当いい感じの曲でした。ＬＩＶＥ見てみたい

[quattrorings]

Cool to see stuff like this. I'm 1/2 myself (blackanese as someone put it) & didn't get the chance to learn the language so it's nice to see the younger gen learn it!

[twilightfantasyx]

i read on her official site that she grew up in New Guinea

[xdegrassilover92x]

yeah!! more blacks in japan :D

i like her.

[famitsudc]

@xdegrassilover92x She's not Black, she's Papua New Guinean.

[puuchuu1]

@famitsudc she is still black. that is her race. PNG is her ethnicity. as in asian is a race but japanese is an ethnicity. black doesnt auto mean african. im black but my ethnicity is trinidadian.

[scaremongeringg]

@puuchuu1 Oh hey i'm trini too! Haha cool. Well I'm from Canada but my parent's are trini.

[antigauche]

@puuchuu1 She's half Japanese too so technically she is mixed-race not just black.

[patchgoli]

@puuchuu1 let me clear something up for you. the color "black" is not a race. Her race is Melanesian and Asian. Papua New Guinea and Japanese are her ethnicity.

[StrawberriKissxX]

@famitsudc papua new guinean is a nationality. clearly she is of black descent...

[patchgoli]

@StrawberriKissxX That race is Melanesian. Not African, not African American or any other black race. She is Melanesian and that is entirely a race completely different to any other race.

[twilightfantasyx]

shes got a beautiful voice. u can obviously compare her to crystal kay due to the same background similarities and the english in their songs and also their musical stylings but i think they sound different. crystal kay can belt it out while emi maria and sell u with a good beat and sing with a natural voice

[ronaldsander]

A Blackanese! She looks nice.

[NikkoArai]

She's Black and Japanese.

[YousAFunnyN]

Wow is she black? She's reminding me a lot of Crystal Kay.

I wish she did more in this video than just sit in a chair. She's cute so I wish they showed more of her face. The song's Ok.

[anglica1127]

I know... I wish she stood up or something.

[twilightfantasyx]

Lol true i wished she had fun with the water make use with the beach

[NickCarterJapanGirl]

I live this song.

I listened to this everyday when I was in Los Angeles.

Your performance is PERFECT.

And you are beautiful.

Im excited to listen to your new songs.

Thank you EMI!

[kireisunotenshi]

Whats wrong with the other side of her face lol?!! Why arent they showing it hardly. She's really pretty so they should have gotten a beauty shot instead of profile...Song is cute as hell. I like her voice. And I love that shirt!!

[bkids517]

Congratulations!! on debut single release today!!
