Guess we should start a dedicated topic on this...
Announced on her Twitter, Hikki says she has "signed a worldwide deal with EMI" and that this will give her "more freedom between languages, and more support overseas". This means she will be breaking ties with Island DefJam/Universal for the work she has done under the name UTADA. However, she says, "I still am taking a break from 2011. I don't know how much I'll carry on after I come back, can't promise a lot, but I will return" According to this press release from EMI, she will go forth using the name 'Hikaru Utada'. There is an image here from the signing: http://www.daily.co.jp/newsflash/2010/11/09/p1_0003593969.shtml Article: http://www.daily.co.jp/newsflash/2010/11/09/0003593969.shtml EMI execs flew in Nov 5, deal was signed Nov 8 |
