Even if we simply say “J-POP artists,” the number of artists covered is countless.

J-POP itself is diverse, after all.

The genre known as J-POP became established in the Heisei era.

It’s a relatively new field, but among its wide variety, which ones are popular with college students?

Macaroni Enpitsu “Youth and a Moment” MV
Youth and a momentmakaroni enpitsu

An emotional rock number that delicately portrays the fleeting beauty of youth.

It carries the message that even the dull days that pass by unnoticed will one day become irreplaceable treasures when you look back.

The warm band sound resonates in the heart, gently encouraging you to take on challenges without fear of failure.

Released by Macaroni Empitsu in March 2019, the song was written for a McDonald’s commercial and was also chosen as the opening theme for the drama “I Saw That Girl’s Dream.” It is included on the acclaimed album “season.” It’s recommended for times when you’re feeling down from tough training for the sports festival or nervous before the big day.

This is a must-listen for anyone who wants to etch the fleeting brilliance of racing forward with friends into their heart.

Silent Majority by Keyakizaka46, released in 2016.

It was used in commercials and played on TV, so even if you don’t know it, many people have probably heard it.

The lyrics are geared toward students, and the song is cool—perfect for dancing, in my opinion.
