I mean, good for him, but man does it suck for anyone new to the scene. There's a pretty important and very personal story I have tied to my "discovery" of him and city pop as a whole, so I hate to imagine how things would've turned out if that story happened now when it's a struggle to find him on YouTube. I know I wouldn't have really tried anywhere else at that time. 😅 It'd be nice to have a physical collection one day, so I can see what all the hype's about. 😂

The song Skylar Spence by Saint Pepsi samples Love Talkin' in it. Once I'd listened to Skylar Spence a few times, I had gotten interested in what the sample was, so I looked it up, found it on YouTube (good luck with that now, thanks Tatsu. 😂), and immediately fell in love with the song. From there I kept listening to whatever city pop YouTube autoplay would throw at me. This was back in spring of 2018, by the way.
