Enka sensation Yuto Tatsumi (28) has officially secured a nomination for Best Enka/Kayokyoku Song at the MUSIC AWARDS JAPAN 2026. Recognized for his hit single "Unmei no Natsu" (éå―ãŪåĪ, Summer of Destiny), he spoke to reporters in Tokyo at the press conference ahead of the award ceremony.
"When I found out I was nominated, at first I couldn't believe it" he said. "When I told my parents and grandparents, they were so happy. I feel like I've done something to show my gratitude."
As traditional Japanese genres experience a modern resurgence, he finds himself at the forefront of a cultural movement.
"So many people are supporting this song. I want to stand on stage with that gratitude in my heart. It's a very prestigious award, so I'm honored to have been nominated. I want to work hard so that I can continue to stand on stage in the future."
While enka is traditionally known for its emotional stillness and vocal control, he is ready to shatter expectations. When asked about his ambition in the future, he said "I want to dance intensely."
He openly admitted his current limitations but revealed a vision for his live show. "I'm not good at dancing, but I want to wear a helmet on my head and spin around doing a headspin" he said with smile.
