Comedians who are good at rapping. Both battles and tracks make an appearance! (11–20)
Takashi Sakai
Takashi Sakai, who plays the funny man in The Mummy, a sketch duo rapidly rising in popularity for their strong comedic chops.
He’s often introduced as a “degenerate comedian” because he loves cigarettes, alcohol, gambling, and women, and carries a large amount of debt—but did you know he actually has impressive rap skills? His usual image is a tough-looking yet cute guy, but in freestyle, his rapid-fire flow delivered in a voice that matches his looks is undeniably cool.
He also raps in the duo’s routines, making him a rapper with a striking, must-see gap between his personas.
In conclusion
This time we introduced various comedians who are good at rapping, but those who are active mainly in the hip-hop scene were on a whole different level to begin with.
Hip-hop is drawing a lot of attention right now, so it might not be long before we see comedians collaborating on rappers’ tracks.
