Hot right now? Popular Japanese dance music among junior high schoolers (41–50)
Mysterious TOKYO CinderellaSeintofō
A four-member idol group selected from 30,000 people.
Despite being idols, their costumes looked like those of tokusatsu heroes, and their acrobatic choreography was astonishing.
Both their singing and dancing were truly top-notch, so it’s a shame they disbanded after just a few years, isn’t it?
Odoru Pompoko RinE-girls
This needs no explanation: a national anime’s national theme song! In the hands of E-girls, it turns into a cute song with high-girl-power choreography.
It’s a tune that lets both guys and girls sing and dance cheerfully to that lively “piihyara piihyara” beat.
Hallelujah feat. BASIRude-α
Rapper Rude-α from Okinawa.
His 2018 EP “20” debuted at No.
1 on the iTunes Hip-Hop Album chart.
Since then, he’s been riding a wave of momentum, even performing live across the U.S.
He’s known for melodic tracks that pair perfectly with approachable lyrics.
A skilled artist, he also boasts a runner-up finish in the High School RAP Championship.
His recordings are excellent, of course, but he looks incredibly cool performing his songs backed by a live band—making him a musician I especially recommend to people who don’t usually listen to hip-hop.
From then to nowAya a.k.a. Panda
One song from the 2nd album “ANEMONE.” The lyrics are a realistic message to her parents.
As a middle schooler, the down-to-earth words might not fully click yet, but hearing her sing them really makes them resonate.
I especially recommend it for middle school girls.
It’s a fight song that showcases her powerful persona, so I thought it would be perfect for students struggling with studies, club activities, or love.
It even looks cool from a male perspective!
NEW DANCEXG
A perfect song for junior high school students has arrived! Released by XG in August 2023, this track celebrates the joy of new dance.
With rhythmic, dynamic sounds, it’s a song that lets you enjoy free self-expression.
It’s perfect for filming videos with friends or getting into a party mood.
The lyrics are packed with the thrill of trying new things and the importance of spending time with your crew.
It’s also included on the album NEW DNA, released in September, so be sure to check it out.
If you dance to it at your school culture festival, it’ll definitely become an unforgettable memory! Let’s all have fun together.
