Izawa was a nobody.
Uki was a jazz set musician with his own band with a small following.
Hirama was a set musician with his own underground solo career.
HzM was the man who was pretty well known already.
You can't say more people didnt know their names after Shiina affiliation. Whether they're %-wise more well-liked is a different matter. Hirama and HzM are without a doubt more popularly liked. Uki no doubt gained more fans than before, but he also no doubt gained negative attention. Izawa is pretty hazy, but no one woulda bought Rashipoki otherwise.
