Interestingly, Osaka has also revealed a specific formula while choosing which artist to listen. She sticks to one artist as long as she is winning. However, after a loss, she switches to another musician.

She only breaks this rule if an artist drops a new song or album. That’s what happened when Eminem released his superhit album Kamikaze.
