Rap songs you’ll want to sing at karaoke: tracks everyone can sing together and get hyped (21–30)
FAKE LANDFAKE TYPE.
A super distinctive rap that depicts a theme park where madness and pleasure swirl! If you can pull it off at karaoke, you’ll feel like the true ruler of entertainment.
It’s a 2021 release.
“FAKE LAND” is a song one of my students used to sing, and I was impressed, thinking, “Wow, their diction is so quick!” It really prioritizes rhythm and accent! It’s not pure rap—there are song-like parts too—so even if you’re not confident with rap, I think you can enjoy singing it all the way through.
Of course, I memorized it while teaching lessons as well, so listening repeatedly and singing along is key! If the fast lyrics make it hard to catch the words, I recommend slowing the playback speed on YouTube.

BibbidebaHoshimachi Suisei
Suisei Hoshimachi’s “Bibideba” became a hot topic on YouTube in 2024 as an “insanely difficult rap” and a “top-tier challenge” song—have you heard of it? Some of my students actually tried it, and when I taught it, I felt that on a first pass it’s quite hard and the melody is tough to anticipate.
Beyond rhythm and pitch, it includes rapid-fire sections and rap parts—there are lots of elements packed in.
If you can master it, it’s a super fun and satisfying song to sing! In the chorus, many phrase endings switch to head voice, so lift your facial muscles and keep centering your pitch between the eyebrows, imagining the sound traveling from the brow up through the head as you transition to head voice.
Raising your hand toward your head while singing can make the visualization easier and help the voice come out more freely.
For the word-heavy sections, don’t try to articulate every syllable crisply; instead, let the words flow so they ride the melody as you sing.
Kawasaki DriftBAD HOP
In their early days, they self-produced their album creation and live performances, and in 2018 they held a concert at the Nippon Budokan—this is a hip-hop crew from Kawasaki representing Japan.
On this track, a dazzling mic relay unfolds over dark, trap-inspired production.
Each member raps with a distinct delivery, making a full recreation extremely challenging.
You can split the parts with friends, but if you manage to perform it solo from start to finish, be sure to brag about it online!
