saw him live because ichiko aoba was opening. i bought the tickets before i heard about any of the 'controversy' but WOW that was one of the coolest nights of my life, i'm glad he is able to tour again because he and his band are great live. and i reckon if ichiko aoba of all people is supporting him then those allegations cannot be real

"a blog post that circulated online edited information from past interviews to describe Oyamada as the perpetrator, even though the original Quick Japan interview stated that he did not commit the acts in question" I'm not even anti-cancel culture, but this got ugly, I feel bad for Cornelius

hey i told my friend nearly 15 years ago that one day Tosin Abasi would wipe the floor with Steve Vai. Was I right? What's the later stuff like?

Exactly. Is Cornelius condemned over something that may, or may not, have happened in high school? Many people do horrible and thoughtless things during this era! I felt so bad for him that METAFIVE's release and promotion got cancelled over this. Fucking move on. Nothing criminal was done other than potentially being a shitty person during high school. That's not enough to destroy a person's career and art. Fuck the writer of that article,

i sincerely hope that keigo's honor is restored and that his music can be heard around the world again. early in his music career, this issue started with a music magazine that wrote an article about bullying that happened in his class during his elementary and junior high school years as if he had done it. he didn't even bother to deny it at a time when there was still no internet, but 20 years later, this fake news spread in the internet society, and it ended up in this terrible way. i cannot forgive the self-proclaimed journalists and media for spreading this fake news as if it were fact without fact-checking.

his wikipedia page still says that he did all of those things and even worse cites third party articles around the leadup of the olympics... im IP banned from editing wikipedia now but someone needs to fix that and insert the proper citations because people can still discover him, see his wiki and then assume it to be true. Its almost like once someone gets fed to the cancel machine there is an aversion to correcting things when new information comes to light. So sad not only because he is such an awesome artist, but also because he's a person and doesn't deserve false info on his reputation.

if you want to read about the bullying controversy from the ORIGINAL source look here: https://crossbreed.tv/?p=6178 most if not all other people are getting the info through a heavily edited blog post based on this magazine, the original article got taken down (the 1994 one), but this article has the original excerpts, and pictures of the magazine itself. please read this if you want proper information !! im just trying to help people form unbiased opinions.

I would like to believe his statement as I don't see why he would lie and make it worse, his apology and explanations were to the point. I just hope more proof can be shown and that he can maybe bounce back from the entire mess if he is being 100% honest. Fantasma still really good tho

Kids give you hell, then turn into adults and are like "oh i'm sorry i did that to you on junior high while causing you trauma you won't forget about for the rest of your life". This guy is so talented but I'll be having a hard time separating the art from those things he did.

the way he's phrased it tells me that he did none of those things, and that rockin' on misused his words to get paper sales and clicks; i'm also thinking that cornelius thought that it would be so bogus and outlandish that it wouldn't go anywhere; so he didn't have to clarify -- and he was right in the moment, it only came back to haunt him years later. the full interview was on rockin' on's website before this all debacle but it is no longer there now (i wonder why)

The fact that most people here loved his music until knowing about his bullying problem as a kid tells a lot more about Cancel Culture and its relation to art than about Oyamada himself. The problem is in people giving more prestige to the artist as a person (specially in Japan with its sick idol worshipping) than to the art itself. Just imagine cancelling every work of every person of the past based on personal moral misbehaviour. Most of science and philosophy was done by wife-beating racist white male. Humanity would have to start from scratch. This is bullshit.

Right, the Middle East, Asia, pre-colonized Africa and South America all comprised of matriarchal, egalitarian societies, forgot that... either you're trolling or you don't understand how human civilizations came to be.
