Voyage

Rira Ikuta, known as the vocalist of YOASOBI and firmly established as a solo artist, released this work in October 2025.

It was written specifically as the required track for LOVE Dan 2026, a high school dance video contest hosted by Nippon TV’s DayDay.

The lyrics, which portray the conflicts and anxieties that arise while chasing dreams and hopes, resonate with today’s high school students.

It’s a pop anthem you’ll want to listen to when you need the strength to move forward into tomorrow.

The song “Omajinai” opens the second mini-album Jukebox.

Its contrast between a driving rock sound and a clear, transparent vocal, together with refreshing lyrics, really lifts the mood.

With its simple melody and narrow vocal range, it’s an easy song to sing, but be careful—there are many spots where it’s easy to slip off pitch, such as the leaps into falsetto.

Since the melody isn’t all that fast relative to the ensemble’s tempo, it’s a pop tune you should be able to sing with some breathing room.

passing shower

Of course, she has a strong presence as the vocalist of YOASOBI, but Lila Ikuta also demonstrates her talent as a solo artist.

“Sudden Shower” is a track included on her second mini-album, Jukebox.

With sounds woven into the intro, it draws you even deeper into a rainy world—a heartrending love song.

When you go through a breakup, you feel like you want to erase your memories, don’t you? Those bottled-up emotions suddenly resurface, syncing with the passing shower.

The contrast between the warm soundscape and Lila Ikuta’s delicate vocals tightens your chest.

Why does rain make everything feel so melancholy?

DUETZICO, Lilas (Ikuta Rira)32rank/position

ZICO (지코), Lilas (YOASOBI’s ikura) ‘DUET’ Official MV

This talked-about release teams up Zico—renowned as both a rapper and producer—and Lila Ikuta, one of Japan’s leading singer-songwriters.

Dropped in December 2025, the collaboration single also drew attention for its comical dance in the music video.

Riding a dazzling track that fuses hip-hop and pop to perfection, their rap and vocals playfully trade lines like a real conversation.

As their voices blend beyond borders and language barriers, just listening makes your heart lift.

It sparked a huge reaction, including a performance on the year-end Music Station SUPER LIVE 2025.

Highly recommended if you’re looking for an uplifting duet.

From SHINSEKAI / ano × Rira Ikuta [Official Audio]

This track, a collaboration between two talents who represent the contemporary music scene—ano and Rira Ikuta—strongly reflects the world of the anime “Dededede.” Remarkably, the original creator, Inio Asano, handled both the lyrics and composition himself.

The harmony woven by ano’s slightly precarious, edgy vocals and Rira Ikuta’s crystal-clear, beautiful voice evokes a heart-wrenching sense of sorrow along with a faint hope for the future.

With lyrics that reference the end of summer, the sound—like capturing the chaotic atmosphere of the exact moment when the extraordinary begins—seems to match perfectly with the peculiar melancholy unique to late summer.

It’s the kind of song you’ll want to listen to carefully on a night spent reflecting on the season that has passed while turning your thoughts to the new world that’s about to begin.

Cafe Latte

Singer-songwriter Rira Ikuta, who is also globally popular as YOASOBI’s vocalist ikura.

Many people may feel her songs tend to be difficult and hesitate to sing them, right? That’s why I recommend this track from her album “Laugh,” released in December 2025.

Created as an insert song for the Korean drama “Tomorrow Will Surely Come,” it features lyrics that overlay everyday feelings of love with the warmth of a café latte, blending comfortably into a medium-tempo sound.

The vocal range isn’t too wide and there are no intense jumps into high notes, so if you relax and ride the rhythm, you should be able to sing it naturally.

It’s a down-to-earth love song you’ll want to sing gently, filled with feelings for someone you care about.

You at midnightIkuta Rira35rank/position

You at midnight

The song “With You at Midnight” closes out the 2nd mini album Jukebox.

Its delicate vocals, carried by nothing but an acoustic guitar arpeggio, tighten the chest when paired with the sentimental lyrics.

The range is wide and the melody is complex, so it’s challenging, but since the tempo is relaxed, once you learn it well you can sing it with confidence.

With its gentle melody set to a waltz-like 3/4 rhythm, it’s a beautiful number that will draw listeners in even at karaoke.
