Editor-in-chief of RAG MUSIC. JFC-certified fact-checker. After working in a music studio and handling wedding sound, joined the RAG MUSIC editorial team in 2016. Experienced with a variety of instruments: marching band in elementary school, clarinet in junior high school wind ensemble, and drums in a band from high school onward. Drawing on my own musical activities and the experience gained through my work, I produce daily articles, including various song introductions, features on music festivals around the country, and live reports. In music, I enjoy not only rock from Japan and abroad but, lately, a wide range of J-pop as well.

There are many songs infused with various emotions in music, but among them, there are especially many that depict romance and feelings of love—and they’re always popular with listeners! Of course, there are plenty of such love songs in the hip-hop scene as well.

In this article, we’ll introduce a whole selection of love songs delivered through rap.

We’ve covered a wide range, from timeless classics to tracks by artists who’ve made waves in recent years, so take your time and listen while reading the lyrics.

You might even come across a song whose lyrics resonate with your own experiences in love.

RHYMESTER “Last Verse”

Last VerseRHYMESTER

Released in March 2010, this track is included on RHYMESTER’s fifth album, “Manifest.” RHYMESTER has long been a driving force in the J-hip hop scene, and in recent years their broad knowledge has led to more television appearances, such as on quiz shows.

Unlike a romantic love song, this track uses different lyrics to express gratitude and love to the fans who have supported RHYMESTER over many years.

Let met know ya…

Let me know ya…feat.Kalassy NikoffTOKONA-X

This is a track included on TOKONA-X’s first album, Tokai X Teio, released in 2004.

Often hailed as a genius in the hip-hop scene, TOKONA-X sadly passed away just ten months after releasing this album, at the young age of 26.

While it isn’t a straightforward love song, it blends skillful flows with his distinctive Nagoya dialect to express a desire for someone to truly get to know him.
