Heartsdales The Legend Final Live DVD+CD Arrived In The Mailbox Today!
I finally recieved my Heartsdales The Legend Live DVD+CD in the mail today, which I ordered from YesAsia.com last week. It got here earlier than expected and I was expecting to get it early next month. Anyway, the package took awhile to get here because it was coming from Hong Kong.
Who is Heartsdales?
According to Wikikpedia…
Heartsdales is a Japanese hip-hop group composed of two sisters, Yumi and Emi, known by their stage names Rum and Jewels, respectively.
Emi was born on December 4, 1976 in Tokyo, Japan. Her family moved to the Yonkers area of New York about the time that Yumi was born (December 17, 1981). They lived there for 13 years.
Some time later, Emi and Yumi appeared on the TV entertainment-audition program ASAYAN. Their performance on ASAYAN landed them a contract. They adopted the name “Heartsdales” as a reference to the city Hartsdale, New York.
They released their first album, Radioactive, in 2002 under AVEX Record’s sublabel Cutting Edge. Since then, they have released six more albums and fourteen singles under AVEX’s Espionage Records sublabel. The Heartsdales’ management office is Artimage, who also manages other Japanese hip-hop artists such as m-flo and Double.
On June 22, 2006, Heartsdales announced on their official website that they were going to break-up to pursue new endeavors.
I’ll really miss their music now that they’ve broken up.

I watched half of the concert and it was really awesome. I’ll have to watch the rest of it the next day since it’s already late at night and I want to watch it with volume on high….shhhhhh.
I love this group. You don’t see to many Asian Rap duo’s to begin with. So it is really sad to see them go. I only wish I could have seen one of their concerts before they broke up. It makes me wonder though why they decided on this. Chances are they just were not able to break into the mainstream outside Japan/Asia. I don’t know what Japanese artists get paid but I ad-mange it isn’t anywhere what North American or European musicians do. There are so many great groups out there which deserve major record deals but never get that chance. HeartsDales had a good run though and at least were able to put out a few albums. Maybe they will have a reunion tour and I will be sure not to miss that one.
Fantastic is all I can say. I only wish I knew about these girls before and i would have signed them. Talent like this doesn’t come around every day as I should know. From what I have heard of them so far HeartsDales show a lot of potential and I would give them a second shot if they decide to give it another go. Good Management is everything in this business and all they need is a little redirection. I will go as far as saying they are as good as any female rap group here in the states and I know a good lot of em. Not only that but they bring something new to the table. I didn’t know they were sisters though which is damn sexy. You don’t see that very often not to mention being fluent in English & Japanese. These girls deserve another shot and I hope they reconsider getting back together.
