Hell-like Heavenshikisai
An ambitious work that fuses a tense sound arrangement with an innovative flow! A duet by Kafu and Len weaves a track that’s aggressive yet highly addictive.
The sharp-tongued lyrics, spun as a warning to oneself, leave a strong impression.
Released in January 2025 and included on the album “WORLDSEND.” I think it’s great as background music for workouts.
There’s also a self-cover version, so be sure to give that a listen too!
Hey! Ho! This is awesome!GANG PARADE
A relentlessly upbeat rock tune that gives you energy was released digitally in April 2025.
Written and composed by Takeya Kaminaka and Takero Yamada of THE Inazuma Sentai, this is the second collaboration between the band and GANG PARADE.
True to its theme of “unapologetically bright and ridiculously fun,” the song brilliantly captures the excitement of live shows and the sense of unity with fans.
It arrives as the third advance single from their major-label third album, “GANG RISE,” scheduled for release on June 18.
In the music video, members gather around a hot pot in a traditional Japanese house while CG yokai add lively flair, and THE Inazuma Sentai also make an appearance.
The positive lyrics stand out—perfect for blowing away everyday anxieties or when you just want to cut loose and have a blast!
HELL or HEAVEN ~My Beloved Psycho Breaker~Janne Da Arc
If you want to go wild headbanging, this is the song! It portrays the blind love of a man who keeps loving a haughty woman even as she toys with him.
“I don’t care if the whole world becomes my enemy!” Lose yourself in the intoxicating world where a man and woman blindly crave each other—one track that will make you psycho-break out of your mind!
HEY!m-flo loves Akiko Wada
In a sense, this song will go down in NHK history.
It’s a collaboration between the rap unit m-flo and singer Akiko Wada, and astonishingly, it was performed as part of the White Team at the Kōhaku Uta Gassen.
Having a female singer appear on the White Team was truly unprecedented.
Hey baby!Kōda Kumi
This song was used as the 12th opening theme for the TV anime series.
It’s included on R&B singer Kumi Koda’s 2011 album “Dejavu.” Many people probably remember the characters dancing along to the music, don’t they?

Transform!Tachibana Ayaka
Ayaka Tachibana, known as the vocalist of the anisong band (K)NoW_NAME, is also active as a solo artist, characterized by a sharp, powerful musical style.
Among her works, the one I especially recommend is Henshin! This rock track features a decadent sound, with the mid-to-low range standing out throughout.
While the overall vocal range is about average, because most of the melody sits in the mid-to-low register, it’s particularly easy to sing for women with lower voices.
Given its gritty sound, I recommend intentionally singing it with less delicacy for the best effect.
heavenly daysAragaki Yui
Yui Aragaki, an Okinawa-born star renowned for her brilliant work as an actress, is perhaps less widely known for another side of her career: singing.
She entered the J-pop scene in 2007 with a film theme song, drawing attention for her fresh, clear vocals.
Remarkably, she performed at the Nippon Budokan just six months after her debut—an unusually rapid achievement.
That same year, she released her album Sora, captivating listeners with her transparent voice and breezy melodies.
As an actress, she has received numerous accolades, including the Newcomer of the Year Award at the 2008 Japan Academy Prize.
She also showcased her versatility by working as a voice actor in 2006.
She is an artist especially recommended for those who want to be soothed by gentle, soft vocals.
