RIP Famous Musician ryuichi sakamoto Last Video 24hrs Before Death, He Knew Something Ain't Right😭 The Japanese musician, actor, singer, producer, writer, and activist Ryuichi Sakamoto, who won an Oscar for his work, has passed away. He was 71. Avex, Sakamoto's record label, released a statement on Twitter on Sunday, thanking his medical teams in Japan and the United States and asking fans to respect his family's privacy following his death from cancer on Tuesday. Sakamoto continued working on art in his home studio whenever he felt up to it while being having treatment for cancer that was found in June of 2020. A private funeral for immediate family members has already taken place, and the statement notes that "he lived with music till the very end." More than 40 films have been scored by Sakamoto, and he has won two Golden Globes, a Grammy, and a BAFTA during his career. Some of these films include The Last Emperor (1987), Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence (1983), and The Revenant (2015). Sakamoto's mother was a clothing designer, and his father was a literary editor, thus he was immersed in the arts from an early age. He was born in Tokyo in 1952. He started playing the piano at age three and went to the same progressive, arty preschool as Yoko Ono did. In Tokyo University of the Arts, he was exposed to electronic music for the first time. Before completing his master's degree, Sakamoto was already working as a studio musician and in 1978 he joined the groundbreaking Yellow Magic Orchestra trio. In 1980, he produced the album B-2 Unit, which featured the spaced-out synthesized beats and melodies of the tune Riot in Lagos, which were later identified as influences on the early electro and hip-hop compositions of Kurtis Mantronik and Afrika Bambaataa. More than twenty solo albums would follow.
