Asako Toki

<think>

Okay, so I need to write a bio for Asako Toki based on the given information. Let me start by checking what I know. The user provided a list of recent releases, which includes tracks like "Lonely Ghost" and "Peppermint Time ~20th Anniversary Best~". The names switch between English and Japanese, and some tracks feature her name in both scripts.

First, I remember that Asako Toki (土岐麻子) is a Japanese singer and songwriter. She started her career in the early 2000s. She was part of a band called Cymbals before going solo. Her music style is often described as city pop or jazz-infused pop, which fits with the titles like "A Night In New York" and "Twilight" suggesting a mellow, urban vibe.

The "Peppermint Time ~20th Anniversary Best~" release indicates she's been active for around 20 years, so that would place her debut around 2003-2004. Her collaborations, such as featuring on tracks like "Silhouette" and "Lil Bit," show she works with other artists, which is common in her career. She's known for smooth vocals and a nostalgic yet modern sound.

I need to confirm if all these details are accurate. Her solo career post-Cymbals is correct. The anniversary album title suggests a 20-year career, which matches her debut timeline. The genres associated with her are city pop and jazz, which align with the provided song titles. Since the user provided recent tracks, including features, it's safe to mention her collaborative work. Also, her name in kanji is 土岐麻子, so using that when mentioning her Japanese name is appropriate.

I should avoid any unverified details. For example, exact birth dates or personal life info isn't necessary here, and I don't have that info. Focus on her musical style, career milestones, collaborations, and the anniversary album. Use casual language, as per the user's request. Make sure not to include anything speculative. Check that all mentioned facts are correct based on existing knowledge. If unsure about any point, it's better to omit it. Since the user provided specific song titles, referencing them can add context, like mentioning her versatile sound through tracks like "Lonely Ghost" and "A Night In New York."
