Minami Hazuki is an enka and kayōkyoku singer from Niigata Prefecture.
She made her CD debut in 2009 with “Koi no Uranai Kakure Dori” on King Records, moved to Tokyo in 2020, and transferred to Teichiku Records in June 2021.
Her first single after the move, “Yurusanai de… Nee,” reached No.
1 on the Weekly USEN HIT Enka/Kayōkyoku Chart.
A versatile artist, she not only performs enka but also takes on a wide range of genres including pop and rock, and showcases piano-vocal performances and flute playing.
She is recommended for listeners drawn to songs imbued with love for her hometown and to a voice that feels both nostalgic and fresh, reminiscent of Showa-era kayōkyoku.
Feelin’ Go(o)dFuji Kaze
Fujii Kaze’s latest track “Feelin’ Go(o)d.” It’s a downtempo pop number that tastefully incorporates R&B, giving the whole song a stylish vibe.
This piece features a moderate presence of low frequencies.
While it doesn’t go into the ultra-low range like “Shinunoga E-Wa,” it includes several mid-to-low and low vocal parts enriched with overtones.
Rather than just singing low notes, if you pay close attention to the off-beats as you sing, it will sound more professional—so definitely give it a try.
FunnyNishino Kana
Kana Nishino, a female singer-songwriter who was hugely active in the 2010s with catchy lyrics and melodies.
Even if you’re not exactly from the generation that hit her peak, I think many women in their 30s still listened to her work.
The track I recommend is Funny.
It’s catchy J-pop with a slight hip-hop flavor, and the vocals throughout are chill and understated.
Definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.
The Bond Between Us Twotatsumi yūto
Released in 2022 as the coupling track to the historical enka song “Setsugekka,” themed around Okita Sōji of the Shinsengumi, “Futari no Kizuna” is, true to its title’s image, a quintessential “happy enka.” If you enjoy heartwarming enka brimming with love and happiness, you should definitely try singing it at karaoke.
Tatsumi’s performance avoids gimmicks and smoothly incorporates classic enka techniques like kobushi and vibrato, making it approachable even for beginners to enka.

She also appeared in NHK’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen for 20 consecutive years starting in 1965, truly becoming a familiar “face of New Year’s Eve.” She is highly recommended not only for enka fans but also for anyone who wants to experience traditional Japanese singing.
