Japanese Hip-Hop Popularity Rankings [2026] (91–100)
ochatime23.exe91rank/position
This is a track posted in June 2020 by 23.exe, who mainly produces dance music.
It’s literally a song about tea time, and Miku Hatsune’s laid-back rap is just too cute.
The groove is insanely comfortable—almost squirm-inducing—and the flow is addictive.
It seems to be popular with overseas listeners, too.
It’s heartwarming.
I think it fits perfectly not only for a leisurely tea time on days off, but also for a break after work or while sipping a canned coffee.
When you need healing, ‘ochatime’ is the only choice!
Too-Insane Skill 10 feat. Rhymester UnionRappa Gariya92rank/position
A three-MC hip-hop unit that has continually delivered their striking style to the world ever since they sent the ferocious “Yabasugiru Skill” to the legendary 1995 compilation album Infamy.
On this release, they feature Infumiaigumi, the Naniwa backyard rhyme collective that has repeatedly fused and split, constantly evolving and deepening their craft.
A classic Japanese rap track where both parties’ rhyme-centric skills intertwine over a cool, rock-influenced beat.
You hardly ever hear such a richly layered track these days!
Yamanote LineNORIKIYO93rank/position
When you’re on the train, your mind tends to wander, doesn’t it? This is a song called “Yamanote Line” by the rapper NORIKIYO.
The neo-soul beat is stylish and wonderful.
Over that track, he sings about the casual scenes you notice on the train.
If you ride the train regularly, you’ll likely relate to this song.
Perfect companion for your morning commute!
This is crazy feat. Daichi YamamotoKaneee94rank/position
This track is distinguished by Kaneee’s rapid-fire rap.
Through a collaboration with Daichi Yamamoto, both artists fully showcase their lyrical skills.
The lyrics, which portray their confident approach to making music, are sure to resonate deeply with listeners.
Released on April 24, 2024, this song marks an important step in Kaneee’s musical endeavors.
10000ftID95rank/position
ID is a rapper boasting overwhelming talent in the history of Japanese hip-hop.
On the hugely popular show Freestyle Dungeon, he became a third-generation Monster and maintained a high win rate.
Even at the freestyle stage, his flow sounds like a recorded track, but his “10000ft” takes a different approach from freestyling, delivering a cool and subdued rap.
Japanese rap arranged with a house vibe is rare, so if you’re curious, be sure to check it out!
