This alert states that your account is in the Singapore Store. You state that you are in Singapore. You may only use the store for the country in which you are a legal resident.

To use the Japanese Store you must be a legal resident of Japan, provide a Japanese payment method provided by a Japanese bank, with a local verifiable Japanese billing address. You can't change stores just because you want an app from that store.

As to your Apple Music question, Apple can answer that.
