I think any student has probably heard it at least once.
If you play it at a school festival or cultural festival, it’s sure to get the crowd going, so definitely check it out.
Broadway Girls feat. Morgan WallenLil Durk
Lil Durk, a rapper from Chicago who could arguably be called the king of today’s hip-hop scene.
If you’re a head, you already know him.
Here’s his track featuring country singer Morgan Wallen: “Broadway Girls feat.
Morgan Wallen.” It’s a high-class song where Morgan’s powerful vocals ride a gorgeous track with perfect balance.
Every part has a great groove, so why not consider using it for your school festival?
INDUSTRY BABYLil Nas X, Jack Harlow
Lil Nas X, a rapper who’s been churning out global hits.
The track he did with fellow rapper Jack Harlow is “INDUSTRY BABY.” It was a massive hit on TikTok, so I think every student knows it.
The real charm of this song is, without a doubt, its memorable chorus.
Even though the melody has a downer vibe, the track is insanely cool, so it’s sure to get the crowd hyped at school festivals and cultural events.
Despacito ft. Daddy YankeeLuis Fonsi
Despacito ft.
Daddy Yankee is the track that sparked the biggest hit in reggaeton history.
Released in 2019 by Luis Fonsi, it gained worldwide popularity thanks to its catchy sound.
In Japan, its popularity finally took off when Justin Bieber released a remix version (lol).
Reggaeton can be a bit of an acquired taste for listeners in Japan, but this song is so catchy that it’s sure to hype up a school festival or culture festival!

Meduza is a house music group that represents Italy.
They produce a range of house music, from deep house to classic house, and have created numerous hit songs.

Blending elements of deep house and electro-pop, it has an energetic melody that I think is perfect for school festivals and cultural events!

“Made You Look” is one of her signature songs.
Its fusion of doo-wop and dance music would pair well with the lively atmosphere of school festivals and cultural events.
