Biography Early life and careerДЄmuro was born to Emiko Taira (JMarch 17, 1999), and an undisclosed Japanese father, in Naha, Okinawa on September 20, 1977. Her album Sweet 19 Blues was the best-selling album of Japan, until it was surpassed by several more entries during most recent years. Recording to calculated results by the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ), she has a total of 43 million certified units. She has been recognized at several award ceremonies, including being a recipient at the World Music Awards, Japan Record Awards, Japan Gold Disc Awards, among many others. Having sold more than 30 million records in Japan, Namie Amuro is recognized as the 12th best-selling artist, the fourth best-selling solo artist, and third best-selling female artist in that region according to The Richest. Alongside this, her compilation albums 181920 (1998) and Best Fiction (2008) are two of the best-selling greatest hits albums in Japan. Though Amuro has been credited as a record producer and songwriter in some of her releases, she has remained solely as a recording artist, with many of her singles hitting number one including 'Chase the Chance', 'A Walk in the Park', 'Dreaming I Was dreaming', 'I Have Never Seen', 'Wild', and an extended play single '60s 70s 80s''. She then moved from R&B, onto electronic dance music with her tenth album Uncontrolled (2012), and has since recorded primarily in English language, including her most recent album Genic (2015). But in 2007, 'Play', her eight studio album, was a period of her resurgence with sales. Transitioning into westernised R&B music, she released her third album Genius 2000 (2000).ДЄs she was beginning to mold her well-known signature R&B sound, sales started to decline by the release of her fifth album Style (2003). She achieved large success with her single 'Can You Celebrate?,' which is still the best-selling single from a female artist in Japan. She signed with Avex Trax in 1995 to release her debut single 'Body Feels Exit,' the lead single from her best-selling album Sweet 19 Blues (1996). Retitling themselves as 'Namie Amuro with Super MonkeyвЂ™s' to achieve further success, they released a studio album and a compilation. Although majority of their releases were unsuccessful in Japan, Amuro's venturing in modelling fashion and acting helped the group gain attention on their single 'Try Me (Watashi o Shinjite)'. Due to her longevity and resilience in the industry, she has been often referred by critics and music publications as the 'Teen Queen of Japan', the 'Queen of J-Pop', the 'Japanese Madonna', and the 'Japanese Janet Jackson'.Д«orn in Naha, Okinawa, Amuro debuted in music as an idol with the band Super Monkey's at age 14.
