Busaiku (舞祭組) is a Japanese boy band with four members from Kis-My-Ft2.[1] They debuted on December 13, 2013 with the release of their first single A gift from heaven produced by Masahiro Nakai. They were dressed in plain suits like businessmen and sang many comical songs like comedians.[2][3][4]
"Busaiku" means "ugly" or "uncool" in Japanese, and was taken from the name of Kis-My-Ft2 namesake show "Kis-My Busaiku," which was unusual for a group name from the idol agency, Johnny & Associates.[5]
Their single Signpost was number-one on the weekly Oricon Singles Chart.[6]
Overview[edit]
On the October 5, 2013 broadcast of "Kiss My Busaiku! (Fuji Television), Masahiro Nakai who was a member of SMAP, mentioned that the "back four" four members of Kis-My-Ft2, Wataru Yokoo, Toshiya Miyata, Takashi Nikaido, and Kento Senga, were not getting much attention compared to the front members, Hiromitsu Kitayama, Taisuke Fujigaya, and Yuta Tamamori.[7] He also offered to provide the music.[8] Masahiro Nakai was senior of Kis-My-Ft2 at the same agent Johnny & Associates,[9] the leader of the national boy band SMAP,[10] and a successful entertainer who has many regular programs and often hosts them.[11][12] On the November 11, 2013 broadcast of "Kis-My Busaiku!" (Fuji Television), the four members of the new unit "Busaiku" announced that their debut single A gift from heaven would be released on December 13.[13] The "Sound Room" (TBS Television (Japan)) broadcast on the same day, hosted by Nakai, was their first TV program appearance as Busaiku.[7] In addition to providing the music, Nakai also choreographed[7] and planned and directed the music video.[7] On November 15 of the same year, they performed "A gift from heaven" live for the first time at Kis-My-Ft2's Tokyo Dome concert.[14]
Group of "back four"[edit]
After their debut, Kis-My-Ft2 aggressively promoted the so-called "front three," Yuta Tamamori, Taisuke Fujigaya, and Hiromitsu Kitayama. The three starred in dramas and danced in flashy costumes in singing shows.[15] On the other hand, Kento Senga, Toshiya Miyata, Wataru Yokoo, and Takashi Nikaido called "back four" wore dark costumes like back dancers behind the three, had few singing assignments, and did little individual work.[16] At the time, frequent collaborators were their seniors group SMAP, and member Masahiro Nakai noticed this situation of these four and decided to produce them himself.[17] The concept of the debut song "A Gift from Heaven," for which Nakai wrote the lyrics, was "the cry from the heart of 'back 4'" and "the coolness of doing your best even if you are unattractive,"[18] and the music video also featured a self-deprecating contrast between the "cool and popular three" and the "uncool and unpopular us."[19][20]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
