Rina Chinen
is a Japanese entertainer, former singer, model, and TV actress. She was born in Naha, Okinawa.
==Music career==
Debuting in 1996 with the Single "Do-Do for Me", Chinen's career transitioned through bouncy pop songs and ballads to rock and then R&B. Chinen had a powerful and versatile voice and could deliver powerful rock ballads such as "In Your Eyes", hard rock "Yes!" or bouncy pop-cum-dance "Baby Love". Her voice is at its best when she sings at lower, throaty pitches. Some earlier songs such as "God Bless the World" and "Wing" sung in a high-pitched voice, perhaps in an attempt to come across as cutesy, are not so pleasant to the ear. Although there are many high-pitched singers in Japan, in Chinen's case this tended to polarise listeners.〔(j-p00p.com :: View topic - The X List )〕
Her last album, ''Breath'', was released in 2001. This took on a more R&B flavour which Chinen said on her Sony homepage was more to her interests.〔(Rina Chinen New Album "Breath" )〕 At this point her music career seems to have stalled. Unlike her earlier albums, this one was not well promoted. Chinen made only a few media appearances.〔(Chinen Rina@Everything2.com )〕
Chinen spent the early years of her singing career doubling as on-air talent for the Yoru mo Hippare TV show. Hippare did give Chinen a chance to sing a wider range of songs, and show the public what a capable voice she actually has. She subsequently dropped off the musical radar. Reportedly her record contract with Sony was not renewed following the "Breath" album. Her Sony blog was last updated 2003.〔(SONY blog ) (in Japanese)〕
