The Drop: Yoshiki

The GRAMMY Museum is thrilled to welcome the legendary Yoshiki for an intimate conversation and performance in the Museum’s intimate 200-seat Clive Davis Theater. The conversation will be modeated by the GRAMMY Museum’s Chief Curator & Vice President of Curatorial Affairs, Jasen Emmons.

YOSHIKI is a composer, classically-trained pianist, rock drummer, and the leader of the rock groups X Japan and The Last Rockstars. YOSHIKI was named “one of the most influential musicians and composers in Japanese history” by Consequence and is described by Billboard as “a musical innovator”.

His worldwide projects include a song dedicated to the tenth anniversary of the Emperor of Japan’s reign, the official theme song for the Aichi World Expo, Hollywood film soundtracks, and the official theme song for the prestigious Golden Globe Awards. Led by YOSHIKI, X Japan has sold over 30 million albums and singles and sold out the 55,000-seat Tokyo Dome a record-breaking 18 times. He was the first Asian musician to perform at the world’s greatest music halls including Madison Square Garden, Wembley Arena, and solo performances at Carnegie Hall.

In 2022, YOSHIKI’s talent competition series YOSHIKI SUPERSTAR PROJECT X became the #1 ranked variety show on Hulu Japan. In 2022, he formed the rock supergroup The Last Rockstars, followed by the release of their first single “Last Rockstars (Paris Mix)” and sold-out concerts in Tokyo, New York, and Los Angeles.

In addition to his music activities, he is also a fashion icon as the designer of his high-fashion kimono brand YOSHIKIMONO and the first Japanese male to appear on the cover of Vogue Japan. He is also the founder of Yoshiki Foundation America, a 501(c)(3) non-profit public benefit organization, and has long been committed to philanthropy. In 2021, Baccarat selected YOSHIKI to design a Harcourt glass in celebration of its 180th anniversary. His Y by Yoshiki wine brand, including the newly-released Y by Yoshiki x Champagne Pommery, is continually sold-out across Japan. In 2022, YOSHIKI formed a business partnership with Coca-Cola Japan to launch the energy drinks Real Gold X and Real Gold Y.
