Mocked for being tone-deaf, I am actually one of the Four Emperors of the music world.
About
【Synopsis】 Guest is an anonymous singer-songwriter active primarily on YouTube. Having never shown their face, almost no one knows their true identity. With overwhelming vocal ability, a string of hits, and the talent to handle everything from lyrics to composition, they are a force to be reckoned with. Due to their sheer skill, four artists who hold immense influence over the Japanese music scene eventually came to be known as the "Four Emperors of the Music World." Guest is one of those Four Emperors. However, at university, they live life as a perfectly ordinary student. Naturally, their friends Rei, Rin, Rui, and Kai have no idea who Guest really is. There is one thing, and one thing only, that Guest avoids at all costs. That is—karaoke. If their singing voice is heard, there's a chance their identity will be exposed. That's why Guest refuses every invitation. "I'm a terrible singer." Believing those words, the four friends eventually came to truly believe that Guest was tone-deaf. "You run away every time, is it really that bad?" "Are you hiding how tone-deaf you are?" "Singing one song won't kill you, right?" The four of them find it hilarious and mock Guest as they please, despite never having heard them sing. Guest doesn't deny it. The more they deny it, the more suspicious it looks. And so today, Guest is mocked while keeping their identity hidden. No one knows. That the person they are mocking for being a bad singer is actually one of the "Four Emperors" of the Japanese music world.
