Meet LiLi, the CEO of Tokyo Dreamgirl and Japan’s Fastest Rising Star

Since acquiring the brand back in 2019, LiLi has turned Tokyo Dreamgirl into a multi million dollar entity through a series of investments and licensing deals while simultaneously dropping a series of chart topping songs, including her hit Sushi, which peaked #11 on Billboard’s World Digital Song sales chart, and #1 on iTunes.

In our interview with her early December, she had this to say about the road to success. "Becoming successful was a big challenge because I wanted to do something different and it's always hard to take a different road in a world as conservative as the one we have here in Japan. It took a lot of hard work and faith to pursue my career as a entrepreneur and also for being a recording artist. I'm happy that I didn't give up and its amazing to finally get to a place where I can see the rewards of my perseverance".

At the close of 2021, LiLi's net worth has soared to an astonishing $2,000,000 and what's incredible is that she did it all on her own in just two years.

In 2022, LiLi Tokyo Dreamgirl, will open the first Dreamgirl Cafe, which is an entertainment restaurant that will be located in Central Tokyo. In addition to her new restaurant business she will also launch her Dreamgirl fashion line and star in a new martial arts, action adventure film, called Legend of the Dragon Princess.

Reebok x PaperBoy Paris x BEAMS Team Up for Club C Legacy Refresh

Shop Reebok here.

Reebok, PaperBoy Paris, and BEAMS announce their first collective collaboration to reimagine the Club C Legacy and Club C 85. Reebok teamed up with the Japanese fashion retailer and hybrid restaurant-streetwear label to create a fresh take on the Club C silhouettes, inspired by the “milk boy”— a close cousin of the paperboy mascot.

A well-known name in the world of streetwear, PaperBoy Paris is a unique, hybrid brand that also functions as a Parisian café. The brand's cap-wearing mascot print has become extremely recognizable in the streetwear and fashion industries and continues to grow in popularity due to one-of-a-kind, highly anticipated collaborations, including several with fashion retailer, BEAMS.

While Reebok teamed up with BEAMS on the Reebok x BEAMS Club C Laceless Mule earlier this month, this is the first time the brand has worked with PaperBoy Paris, and the first capsule the three brands have designed together.  

“Here at PaperBoy, we’re all kids of the ’90s and have worn the Club C since our childhood,” said James Dridi, PaperBoy Paris Founder. “It’s a dream come true to have the chance to design new iterations of the Club C silhouettes, especially with BEAMS, our emblematic partner.”

The ultimate goal for the Club C refresh was to keep the branding and look of the silhouettes pure, while subtly connecting the design back to the PaperBoy Paris restaurant, including the ingredients used—such as milk—and the meals cooked.

To design the Club C Legacy, the brands brought together the unique universes of Reebok, BEAMS, and PaperBoy Paris in a simple, refined manner for today’s consumer. Comprised of rubber and garment leather in a white and core black colorway, the Club C Legacy ($120; GW2816) seamlessly combines each of the brand’s fonts and logos throughout the shoe and features restaurant-inspired illustrations on the sock liner to tie back to PaperBoy Paris’ DNA.

The Reebok x PaperBoy Paris x BEAMS Club C Legacy will be available for purchase on Paperboyparis.shop beginning October 22, on Reebok.com and select fashion retailers on October 29, and Beams.co.jp on October 30. The collaboration’s Club C 85 will be available for purchase exclusively from PaperBoy Paris and BEAMS on the same dates.

About PaperBoy Paris

PaperBoy Paris is a hybrid brand that is both a streetwear label and a restaurant, functioning in different corporate realms simultaneously. Parisian café PaperBoy Paris has quickly become a popular name in the world of streetwear. With the brand’s cap-wearing mascot print, they have recently teamed up with Japanese Icon label BEAMS for its first collaboration with Reebok. PaperBoy Paris has seen its popularity grow considerably in recent years teaming up with BEAMS and we are proud to present this project focused on the Club C and Club C Legacy for FW21.

About BEAMS

The first BEAMS shop opened in February 1976 in a tiny space of only 21.5 square meters (231 square feet) situated subtly inside of a building that later entirely became the current menswear flagship, BEAMS HARAJUKU. A pioneer of lifestyle retailing, BEAMS imported and sold fashion and homeware products displayed to feel like a UCLA student dorm room, and named its shop American Life Shop BEAMS. Within a few years, the company quickly expanded its realm to American east coast and European trends by newly creating the BEAMS F and International Gallery BEAMS stores in 1978 and 1981. In response to growing demand for women’s styles, BEAMS’ first women’s label and store Ray BEAMS was started in 1984. New categories continued to be added, and BEAMS developed numerous labels with dedicated buying and merchandising teams. For every label and store, international and Japanese designer items are supplemented by in-house label products that add variety and depth to the merchandise mix.

In the course of growth, BEAMS earned a reputation for itself in cross-brand collaborations. Buyers often customized designer products to better fit the Japanese physique or to add a special detail to a popular model. In 1997, BEAMS collaborated with Motorola to produce specially designed mobile phones and gadget-compatible apparel. Since this period, collaboration projects rapidly increased, and BEAMS engaged in several notable collaboration projects with authentic international and domestic brands – many of which are featured in the 2017 Rizzoli publication BEAMS: beyond TOKYO.

To this day, BEAMS is a privately-owned company headquartered in Tokyo, Japan. Yo Shitara is the owner and President of BEAMS Co., Ltd. which was founded by his father Etsuzo Shitara. Most of its approx. 150 stores are widely spread across Japan, while its international locations include Taipei, Hong Kong, Beijing and Bangkok.

Jesus Cares by Calvin "Seanote" Byrd Debuts Top 10 on Gospel Charts

Calvin ‘Seanote’ Byrd has landed his latest release “Jesus Cares” on the Gospel Billboard Charts. According to reports, “Jesus Cares” is currently the #9 position above CeCe Winans’ hit single “Goodness of God”.

Seanote has been sharing beautiful music for quite some time now. According to him, he’s been called by God to bring positivity back to humanity. His songs are about progression and trust in Jesus. He would like people to know that ‘Jesus Cares’ when no one else does. His mission is to ignite fire and passion for Jesus in the soul of others by creating Christian music and movies.

Pastor Byrd’s new release ‘Jesus Cares’ is all about giving motivation and a new meaning to life that will safeguard one’s peace. Seanote is here to serve people and he has made it his duty to give people hope that Jesus hasn’t abandoned them.

Moreover, growing up in the church and performing at a young age, Seanote knew that this was the way that God wanted him to go, therefore, this is the route that he has chosen. When he was young, he sang in the church choir for over 12 years. His father taught him about music, harmonizing, and other essentials. Seanote  is also a professional actor and has worked with some of the big names in the industry, including Denzel Washington, Mark Wahlberg, and even Oprah. In one of his concerts, he realized the true meaning of Gospel music when almost 15,000 attendees accepted Jesus as their Savior.

This is what made Seanote oriented towards creating Gospel music with even more heart, passion, and fire. His goal is to guide people towards the Word of God. The music alone is not what inspires his followers. People also love his personality, and the fact that he is a man of action. He no longer performs in any non-Christian-based movies, and he avoids films with bad language and obscene scenes. In every performance, he is dedicated to working for God and serving God in every possible manner.

Seanote’s dedication and commitment to Jesus and the Word of God is as steadfast as it was years ago. Due to bad language in scripts, he has even turned down roles that were paying amazingly well. He is now working on his first Christian-based movie and has just released ‘Jesus Cares’ which is now trending on multiple platforms. He intends to continue forward with the same Holy Spirit-filled passion.

In conclusion, he’s using his Hollywood contacts to get in touch with those willing to take part in the movies he’s working on, and so far, several are interested. What’s left to see is how well Seanote  takes his amazing journey to higher heights while teaching people about Jesus and the Kingdom of God.
