Gonna be in Tokyo for 10 days next week. Does anyone have any recommendations for music shops/thrift stores/anime merch or any other dope things to do while I’m out there? I know of the One Piece Base Shop as I’m looking forward to visiting it.

Go to a love hotel

Ueno Park has a national museum there

Not a bad idea

just dont get baited into going into a bar/club by doormen/promoters, your card is gonna get ran up

nintendo world

Japan should go back to only letting westerners on one s***ty little island

Someone told me there’s mad Nigerians out there doing scamming s***, is that true? (Not tryna be prejudiced btw)

Deff going since it’s mad cheap

Damn playboy

Get some p****

Manhattan Records
Cat St in Harajuku for amazing thrifts/vintage stores
Tower Records
Disc Union
Round 1
Afuri Ramen (best ramen I’ve had, went twice on my last visit)
Ahikabara is an anime town in Tokyo
Senso Ji Temple
Parco is the illest mall I’ve ever been to
Koenji was dope
Eat all you can eat Wagyu. Pick a spot, shouldn’t be more than $30 US
Golden Gai in Shinjuku

Tokyo is amazing. Pick a direction and walk, you’ll have the time of your life.

Where you staying?

hows the weather there rn? I was just there in december

yes ive seen it

not going to kyoto and a day in osaka is insane

If I went to Japan, I would go to Kyoto to where yung lean made his music video on the stairs

I appreciate the insight man! Koto City!

Oh no Osaka is definitely on the books for sure. But I hear a lot of these tourists spots be mad packed too so I’m trying to see if there’s other lowkey spots tbh.

Say less

Mad cold and apparently it’s gonna be raining on/off

Go to some izakayas in Roppongi

Hope they love us black folks out there lol

Is Golden Gai overrated?

The beauty of Golden Gai is the spaces are so small, you’re forced to interact w other travelers from around the world and you’ll meet some dope ppl

It was a great networking opportunity for me, met some cool industry folk last time

Enjoy G!
