History YMMV / Nujabes

** [[AuthorExistenceFailure His passing.]] Just... his passing. Seba was a defined genius within the indie hip-hop scene and to know he's no longer around to create fantastic music that he did for the sole art is just devastating. It's sad to say there isn't going to be a smart and beautiful soul like this in a long time, if ever.

* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments:
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAxgpHWtLC0 The video for "Luv(sic),"]] consisting of Japanese people "silly running" towards the camera in slow motion.
** The "same shit, different assholes" line in "Yes" is equal amounts funny and {{squick}}y, especially since it looks so out of left field compared to the other lines in the song.

** The ending of the second verse of "Luv(sic), Part 2."
--->''Understand the time has finally come to realize the great power of one''\\
''All formulas equalize under the Sun''\\
''Amen.''

** "Perfect Circle," released as part of the ''Luv(sic) Hexalogy'' compilation album in 2015, [[https://genius.com/Nujabes-perfect-circle-lyrics focuses on life's cylic nature,]] ultimately telling listeners not to despair in the face of dark moments, but to enjoy life to the fullest regardless of the hardships along the way. Near the end, [=Shing02=] muses that it won't be long before those on the other side are reunited with their loved ones, hence the title. Thematically, it serves as a fitting and uplifting companion to the aforementioned "Luv(sic)" tracks.

** After his death, fans around the world grieved over him. There is also [=Shing02=]'s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKW4EA3wluI tribute.]]
** Five Deez, a Cincinnati-based hip-hop outfit and frequent collaborators with Nujabes re-recorded the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5vNZuoW0bo remix]] Jun did for them on ''Metaphorical Music'' with a new [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LeZVZHuW9DE tribute]] that commemorates his life and legacy.

** This extends to one of his compilation albums, ''Hydeout Productions 2nd Collection'', as Nujabes composed all but three of the tracks (those three being "Waltz for Life Will Born" and "Windspeaks" by Uyama Hiroto and "With Rainy Eyes" by Emancipator, the latter of which was additionally edited by Nujabes). It is not uncommon for [=YouTube=] uploads to credit the entire album solely to Nujabes.

*** As a silver lining to this rain cloud, the poignancy of Nujabes' recordings has managed bring together a large variety of people across the globe regardless of cultural differences. It's also been argued that there are many musicians, ranging from contemporaries of Nujabes' who were on the scene with him to those inspired by his music [[labelnote:for example...]] Kenichiro Nishihara, Haruka Nakamura, Uyama Hiroto, DJ Okawari, Nomak, nitsua, Emancipator, Thomas Prime, Marcus D, tsunenori, jinsang, Blazo, Kondor, nymano, nohidea., tomppabeats, and FLUGHAND, [[https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=similar+to+nujabes&* just to name a few]] [[/labelnote]], who are carrying on the sound associated with Nujabes albeit with their own unique spins.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeArt: All of the covers to his albums. All of them.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[Anime/SamuraiChamploo "Battlecry"]] wasn't put in Number 2 in [[WebVideo/ThatDudeInTheSuede Suede's]] Top Openings for nothing.

* EvenBetterSequel: Kind of {{subverted|Trope}}; ''Modal Soul'' was seen as up to par with ''Metaphorical Music'', but not necessarily better. The same applies to ''Spiritual State'', another worthy follow-up.

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments[=/=]TearJerker: After his death, fans around the world grieved over him. There is also [=Shing02=]'s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKW4EA3wluI tribute.]]

* MisattributedSong: A lot of people are under the impression that Nujabes did the entire ''Anime/SamuraiChamploo'' soundtrack on his own, and uploads of the various songs on Website/YouTube or download sites often credit him for every single track. While his contributions are probably the best known, it would be unfair to ignore the contributions that collaborators Fat Jon, Tsutchie, and Force of Nature made.

* SugarWiki/MostWonderfulSound: His entire discography is stocked to the brim with these.
