There are few pop idols in Japan, let alone the world, who have achieved the kind of super star status that Koda Kumi (倖田來未) has achieved. In what seems a rather humble beginning, Koda Kumi’s name is more popular today then that of the Prime Minister for people between the ages of 13 to 26. She has yet to successfully break into the biggest music market in the world, The United States.
