Music is like eating food!
This is for all of you who have or haven't heard music from that East.
This list of artists are some of my favorite, but there is way more out there you can hear.
Lets just say that this is just a taste of the musical world of Asia.
I hope you enjoy this list of artist here, so far I've only been able to look at some of the music from Japan, Korea, and Taiwan.
Hopefully in the future I'll be able to put down more artists from different parts of Asia ( If you know of any let me know and I'll do my best to put them on the list).
But for now please see what you like from the list.
Have fun and oh yeah Asian music rocks!
You can find some of them in Dramas and Movies

Nu metal? Visual kei?
Visual kei (vijuaru kei?, literally "visual style" or "visual system") is a movement among Japanese musicians, that is characterized by the use of make-up, elaborate hair styles and flamboyant costumes, often, but not always, coupled with androgynous aesthetics. Some sources state that visual kei refers to a music genre, or to a sub-genre of Japanese rock, with its own particular sound, related to glam rock, punk and metal. However other sources state that visual kei's unique clothing, make-up, fashions, and participation in the related sub-culture is equally as important as the sound of the music itself in the use of the term. -Wiki

Fashion:
In 2006, when the popularity of Japanese singers was declining in Singapore due to the rising popularity of the Korean wave, Koda's sexy image garnered her popularity in the region and renewed interest in J-pop. James Kang, marketing director for Warner Music in Asia, noted that Koda's sexy image is popular not only with men but also with women, even "Japanese aunties", because she uses her image to "make a feminist statement...She's constantly telling women to believe in themselves and do what they want to do". In 2007, it was proposed that the term "ero-kakkoii" be added to the Japanese Encyclopedia of Contemporary Words.-Wiki
Inoue Joe

He was born in Los Angeles, California under Japanese parents who moved to the states to follow their career.
He grew up in an environment filled with music, and started listening to music seriously in his middle school years.
He listened to as many types of music, no matter what the genre. In fact, he still does. That is where he got his versatility in creating music.-Joe Inoue.com

Each music video is really different but there still really good!
Gradually, Inoue started recording his own materials on a multi-track recorder, with him playing every instrument, including vocals, guitar, bass, drums, etc. Hell, he even produces/arranges/mixes his own songs!
In 2005, he decided to send few of his demos to Japan, and signed a record deal with Ki/oon Records.-Joe Inoue.com

Yamashita Tomohisa (NEW)
Jpop

In September 2003, Yamashita and eight other boys from Johnny's Juniors were chosen to form the group NEWS. NEWS made its formal debut on May 12, 2004. Yamashita was often referred to as the leader of NEWS but members of the group, including Yamashita himself, have stated at times that he was not the de facto leader.
In October 2005, Yamashita and Kazuya Kamenashi from KAT-TUN formed the temporary unit Shuuji to Akira (Shuuji and Akira) to promote their television show Nobuta o Produce which also starred Maki Horikita. (Shuuji and Akira are the characters they portray in the drama.) They also released a single, "Seishun Amigo", under the name Shuuji to Akira, which sold over a million copies in four weeks. "Seishun Amigo" topped the Oricon Yearly Single Rankings for 2005.
On October 7, 2011, Johnny & Associates announced that Yamashita and Nishikido Ryo were no longer members of NEWS, and Yamashita would henceforth be concentrating on his solo projects.Yamashita later published a message through the Johnny's web (Jweb) subscription service stating that this was a decision taken after much consideration on his part, and he was grateful to the members of NEWS for being understanding.
Yuya Matsushita (NEW)

Biography:
Born in Kobe on May 24, 1990, Yuya Matsushita was raised by his mother and grandmother. As a sixth grader in 2002, Matsushita decided to pursue a career in music, enrolling in Caless Vocal & Dance School. Around 9th grade, despite clashing with his mother regarding his future plans, a visit to New York City strengthened his determination to become an artist. He met with producer Jin Nakamura who presented him with the song "foolish foolish". The filming for the single also took place in New York, after being signed to Epic Records.
In 2009, Yuya Matsushita had his stage debut as Sebastian Michaelis in the Black Butler (Kuroshitsuji) Musical. His single Trust Me was used as the first ending theme in the Durarara!! anime, and peaked at 10th in the weekly Oricon charts.
In 2010, Matsushita's single "Bird" was used as the ending theme for the second season of the Black Butler (Kuroshitsuji) anime.
In 2011, his single "Paradise" was used as the theme song for the drama Quartet, in which he also starred. He was announced as the first guest for MusicFest at FanimeCon in 2011.-wiki
