I want to sing at karaoke! Songs by male artists recommended for Gen Z

Do you have a go-to setlist for karaoke?

In the ever-evolving J-pop scene where countless new songs are released every day, it’s tough to always learn the latest tracks and sing them.

So this time, we’re introducing karaoke songs by male artists that we recommend for Gen Z!

Since these are all hit songs, they should come in handy no matter who you’re going to karaoke with.

Because we chose well-known tracks, some of them are challenging to sing—but that’s exactly why, if you can pull them off, you’ll be a hero for sure!

I want to sing at karaoke! Songs by male artists recommended for Gen Z (81–90)

Song of Greensoshina

In addition to his work as a comedian, Soshina is also active as a YouTuber and an artist.

He releases music consistently and has a few hits to his name.

Among his songs, the one I particularly recommend is Midori no Uta (The Green Song).

It’s a punk rock-based track sung entirely in a gravelly voice.

Despite its intensity, it actually has a fairly narrow vocal range, with most of the singing in the low to low-mid register.

It’s an ideal song for showcasing the richness of a man with a low voice.

A newcomer artist whose breathy vocals and catchy sound are rapidly gaining momentum, Yua Sugaya.

He already has a few hit tunes under his belt, but the one I especially recommend is “Ride the Sound Till It Hurts.” It’s a bright, upbeat track, yet surprisingly the vocal line’s pitch movement is gentle, and the long tones aren’t all that long.

If you track the pitch accurately, it’s a song where you can easily aim for a perfect score.

Fujii Kaze’s new song “Masshiro.” When you think of Fujii Kaze, you probably picture tracks rooted in R&B, right? That style can make his music feel a bit challenging to some listeners, but this release is different.

It forgoes elements of Black music like R&B and instead features an airy, dream-pop-like vocal line throughout.

As a result, it’s one of the easiest songs to sing in his catalog.

Definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

Masakado Yoshinori and Kojima Ken, members of the Aぇ! group, possess the unique charm and diverse talents nurtured by Kansai culture.

Since their formation in 2019, they have showcased a wide range of performances—not only singing and dancing but also full band sets.

In May 2024, they made their CD debut, drawing significant attention.

Their careers in entertainment began in 2011: Masakado Yoshinori has been highly praised for his role in a serialized TV drama, while Kojima Ken has received acclaim for his leading performance in a drama series.

On their album “D.N.A,” they present a variety of tracks, from energetic band sounds to disco-inspired numbers.

With Masakado on guitar and Kojima on keyboards, and their approachable, Kansai-style personalities, they continue to captivate many fans through both music and variety programming.

Leveraging the strength of all being from the Kansai region, Naniwa Danshi continues to captivate audiences with performances brimming with Kansai-specific charm.

They made their CD debut in November 2021, and many of their subsequent releases have ranked high on the Oricon charts.

The group has built a sparkling track record, including winning Best 5 New Artists at the 36th Japan Gold Disc Awards.

Every member is also skilled in acting, thriving across a wide range of fields such as TV dramas, films, and stage productions.

In April 2024, they formed the limited-time unit KAMIGATA BOYZ together with other Johnny’s groups from Kansai, further accelerating their momentum.

They’re highly recommended for those drawn to the blend of friendly Kansai dialect and polished performance.
