Playerchelmico

With its brisk beat and perfectly synced dual rap, just listening to it will lift your spirits.
If you split the parts with friends and sing it at karaoke, you’ll feel a sense of unity and the excitement will build.
Give it a try and enjoy it together!
Because You’re My ShawtyAK-69
When it comes to Nagoya rappers, we can’t forget TOKONA-X, Ryofu Karma, and AK-69.
As for START IT AGAIN, while both the musical style and lyrics are reminiscent of RHYMESTER’s ONCE AGAIN, you can still feel his uniquely strong and resilient will.
His pronunciation is so clear you can catch the words even without reading the lyrics.
Emphasizing the s sounds, and pronouncing the long “o” vowel—like in words such as “kodō” (heartbeat) and “zanzō” (afterimage)—as a rounded “u-oo” will really boost how closely you can reproduce the original track!
YOKAZEHentai Shinshi Kurabu
This is the signature track of Hentai Shinshi Club, which includes WILYWNKA, formerly known as TAKA, who was also active in the High School Rap Championship.
As the members themselves assert, they don’t necessarily insist on sticking to the hip-hop format.
YOKAZE is a feel-good number whether you listen to it in the car or while walking, and it’s relatively easy to rap even for beginners.
Because the low, whisper-like rap tends to get muffled, try minimizing echo and other reverbs when singing it at karaoke.
airplaneKOHH
From the opening chorus, this song feels amazing to sing and to listen to.
KOHH is hugely popular overseas—at his shows in France, the crowd even sings along in Japanese.
His style as a rapper is characterized by a relatively slow delivery, which makes it easier to try at karaoke.
The key to avoiding a mere nasal tone is to emphasize the consonants and strongly pronounce the first letter of rhyming words.
It never gets old—his rap overflows with originality, sounding casual like ordinary speech yet surprisingly hard to imitate.
Life Style – T-Pablow, YZERR (Prod by Gold Digga)BAD HOP
BAD HOP is one of the most popular hip-hop crews in Japan.
If you’re in your teens or twenties, chances are you’ve heard their work at least once.
The track that kick-started their rise to fame is “Life Style – T-Pablow, YZERR (Prod by Gold Digga).” It’s a signature piece for the crew, expressing their way of life—literally, their lifestyle.
If you’re singing it at karaoke, it’s a good idea to add an Auto-Tune effect.
