Information

NOTHING FROM NOTHING was the name of Hamasaki Ayumi's first professionally recorded and released single and the mini-album that followed. This material has a rap/hip-hop sound, something Hamasaki has rarely done since. For this release, Hamasaki worked with rapper DOHZI-T and producer DJ Bass who have since found success elsewhere. It was released under the Nippon Columbia label. The album was recorded during Hamasaki's so-called idol era, as part of her activities as a teen idol. During this time, Hamasaki also acted in movies and TV doramas, co-hosted a number of TV shows, did modeling and commercials, also did several bikini photo shoots for magazines, as well has her own photobook and calendar. Like many idols, Hamasaki also recorded music. The album was promoted in magazines in which Hamasaki appeared, and on one of her TV shows. However, the album did not perform well. There is some discrepancy as to how the album and single performed on the Oricon charts, the general consensus is that the single reached #198 (staying there for only one week) and the album either failed to chart or reached #200.
