The change of music culture in Japan

Japanese music for young people has been greatly unfluenced by American music. In my school days, listening to American Rock music was my favorite hobby, as it was most of my friends. Recently, hip-hop music has become the most popular among Japanese young people. Now, I will try to listen to R&B to travel to Chicago next weekend, where I'll visit the famous bar for listening to R&B live.

On the other hand, Japanese traditional music "Enka" is becoming less popular than what it used to be. Now, most people who listen to "Enka" are old men over 40 years. It is the serious problems in Japanese culture.
