Singer, model and actress Meisa Kuroki has seemingly created a niche for herself in the pop world, as the singer’s new album “MAGAZINE“, which went on sale on the 26th, has moved up to #5 on the Oricon for its second day on the charts.

Having released three physical singles and two mini-albums since her debut back in 2008, the busy 22 year old is currently promoting her new album, which is her first full length studio effort. Kuroki, who has been tweeting regularly about the album’s progress since the end of last year, is pulling out all the stops, promoting new songs such as “Bye Bye My Friend” on Hey! Hey! Hey! Music Champ. The album also has another unique advantage: its packaging. The entire album has been formatted to look exactly as its title suggests – a magazine.

While the album is having success on the charts, Kuroki isn’t slowing down her musical work anytime soon. Word on the street is that the singer will be releasing a new single titled ”One More Drama” for April 13th.

Please check back with tokyohive for more details as the release becomes finalized, and look forward to Meisa’s performance of “LOL!” on tomorrow’s episode of “Music Station”!

A very special thank you to niiwa for the tip.
