Cry BabyG-k.i.d
After the popular hip-hop crew BAD HOP disbanded, G-k.i.d embarked on a new path as a solo artist.
He’s an artist known for his melodic flow and the authentic perspective born from experiences shaped on the streets.
This track he released in September 2025 is included on the album “Hood Melody DELUXE.” Over a smooth, chill beat, his vocals resonate with a touch of sensuality.
At first listen it feels relaxed, but the lyrics reveal loneliness and inner conflict hidden behind a smile.
Transforming a heart’s cries—brave on the outside, yet in tears within—into music, this piece might be perfect for solitary moments spent gazing at the night view.
It’s a song that not only plays in the background but also stays close during introspective times.
CloserMyles Lloyd
Myles Lloyd, an artist based in Montreal, Canada.
Rooted in R&B while blending in pop and trap influences, his style is undeniably easy on the ears.
The project he released in August 2025 is a slow jam perfectly suited for a chilled-out night.
Over a soundscape woven from delicate keyboard melodies and a rich 808 bass, his emotional vocals—laced with falsetto—resonate beautifully.
The work portrays the bittersweet feeling of sensing emotional distance even when a loved one is by your side, along with the yearning to draw closer.
The dreamlike music video, filmed in nature, amplifies the song’s mood, and this gem—selected as Uber UK’s “Tune Of The Week”—will fit seamlessly into your weekend relaxation time.
Clap ClapOfisharu Higedan Dism
Official HIGE DANDism’s classic “Clap Clap” is marked by its cheerful melody.
The vocal line places the verse (A-melody) in the middle range, the pre-chorus (B-melody) in the mid-high range, and the chorus in the high range.
Because there are many high phrases overall, it might seem difficult, but since it’s constructed from the middle to high ranges, the overall range isn’t actually that wide.
However, the high phrases continue for a long time, so a certain level of endurance in the upper register is required.
For those with a naturally high vocal range, the contour of the melody is relatively gentle, making it a fairly singable song.
Blank FlowerTomita Nanaka (≠ME)
Nanaka Tomita, who hails from Kirishima City in Kagoshima Prefecture, serves as the immovable center of the idol group ≠ME produced by Rino Sashihara.
She also has experience performing as a local idol.
≠ME made their major debut in April 2021 with the mini album “Super Express to ≠ME,” and she has taken the center position for most of the group’s title tracks.
Her pure, straightforward, and resolute singing voice is a key charm—so much so that the producer once said her voice was the decisive factor in choosing the center.
During the tour in October 2022, she thrilled fans by performing the song “Shy Short” while unveiling her long-awaited short haircut.
Gloomy SundayAwaya Noriko
This is a chanson born in Hungary, known worldwide as a frightening song.
In Japan, it’s known through performances by artists such as Noriko Awaya, who was called the “Queen of Blues.” That bleak melody inevitably sends chills down your spine, doesn’t it? This Japanese version was recorded once around 1936, but there’s an anecdote that its release was banned because the overly pessimistic atmosphere was deemed problematic.
With a noble yet weighty vocal tone that highlights quiet madness and sorrow, this chilling piece seems perfect for a ghostly Halloween gathering.
QUEEN’s SanctuaryHipunoshisumaiku -D.R.B
As a music-origin character rap project, Hypnosis Mic -D.R.B- captivates fans through a wide-ranging media mix.
Released in September 2025, this track was newly written as the theme song for the stage production “Hypnosis Mic -Division Rap Battle-.” Its aggressive sound—where rock and rap collide intensely—cranks up the energy.
The lyrics, infused with defiance against an unreasonable world and a strong will to uphold one’s ideals, may resonate with anyone fighting their own battles day to day.
Featuring powerful choral parts by the female cast, it’s a dramatic work that leaves a strong impact.
Crazy SummerKIRINJI
It’s a late-summer classic by KIRINJI.
The track appears on the EP “Sweet Soul ep,” released in March 2003, and is distinguished by Yasuyuki Horigome’s soft, translucent vocals—he also wrote the lyrics and composed the music.
If you listen to it on a sentimental night when you’re thinking of someone you can’t forget, it just might bring back the air of that day, still warm with heat.
It’s a song I especially recommend to anyone who has experienced an unforgettable, passionate love.
