I recommend Leah Dizon, she's an American and really admires Utada Hikaru, who was her inspiration to get into J-Pop. Here's a video (which I'm sure many Utada Hikaru fans have already seen) of Utada on the Japanese TV show Utaban, getting surprized by Leah.

As for Leah Dizon songs, I first heard Vanilla and was then on hooked. Here is the Vanilla music video which I think is kawaii!

It's a Duo....Verbal is whom Aijin is talking of,Tak is who dj's,composed and masters all the tracks.But singers they are not.Very good work though.

Other than Hikki,
I usually listen to American bands and solo artists.

But other Japanese artists I listen to are
Ayaka - too bad she's quitting the music industry after this year because of her illness.
Aoyama Thelma - She attended the same high school Hikki did. She's about 1/4 Trinidanian.
Anna Tsuchiya - She's a Japanese Russian-american well known model.

Same here!
Hikki's like the only reason why I got into J-pop so I only listen to her and my friend introduced me to Aoyama Thelma. Otherwise, I'm more into US artists and bands.

But I really love Aoyama Thelma's voice..its so smooth and pleasant to the ears.

Her newest single (r &b)

This is one of my favorite from her

Well, she isn't permanently leaving her career. I believe it's just an hiatus.

And I know TPKA loves Anna Tsuchiya.

Well, Anna Tsuchiya isn't the best. It just gives me something to listen to. I really like her as a model.
I prefer male vocals than females. I enjoy listening to some of Kobukuro and Exile stuff.
Personally, I think there are more talented American singers than Japanese. I wish I could sing...

I really like the collaboration of Dream Lover that Aoyama Thelma did with DJ Makidai recently.

Also Kato Miliyah and Shimizu Shota's Lover Forever.
