The term originally denoted any kind of \"popular music\" in Japanese. Therefore, imay\u014D, which was promoted by Emperor Go-Shirakawa in the Heian period, was a kind of ry\u016Bk\u014Dka. Today, however, ry\u016Bk\u014Dka refers specifically to Japanese popular music from the late 1920s through the early 1960s. Some of the roots of ry\u016Bk\u014Dka were developed from Western classical music. Ry\u016Bk\u014Dka ultimately split into two genres: enka and poppusu."@en . . . . . . . . . .
