iri – I want to see you (Music Video)

Singer-songwriter iri, who distills jazz and hip-hop through her own unique sensibility.

Nurtured since before her debut, this track—featured on her November 2017 EP “life ep”—is a love song that truly represents her.

Based on a true story, the lyrics vividly portray lingering feelings and heartache after a breakup, and if you listen alone late at night, they’re sure to sink deep into your heart.

The mellow beat and her husky vocals perfectly match the urban nighttime atmosphere.

On a sleepless night, why not soak in its stylish, bittersweet afterglow?

iri – friends (Music Video)

A digital-only single by female singer-songwriter iri, released in October 2022.

With iri’s alluringly adult, low-register voice, this track is a perfect fit for women with deeper voices.

However, if you sing in a mumbling way just because your voice is low, you’ll dull the very appeal of that lower tone.

When you sing, practice producing a solid chest voice that resonates in the thoracic cavity, aiming the sound toward your lower jaw inside your mouth.

Also, the rhythm has a bounce to it, so be careful not to let it turn flat.

If you listen closely to her performance, you’ll notice she uses mix voice effectively in parts of the song where the pitch rises a bit, making this choice somewhat advanced.

Even so, it’s a number I highly recommend women with lower voices to try.

Pick you upiri4rank/position

iri – Pick you up (Music Video)

When you think of female artists with low voices, many of you might picture iri first.

iri is a Japanese R&B singer with a cool, low-toned voice that even captivates women.

Her new track, Pick you up, starts with an intro that leans more toward Afrobeat than R&B, then smoothly unfolds into dance R&B.

There’s falsetto in the chorus, but since it’s sung in a whispery style, it should be manageable even for low-voiced women.

Try singing without forcing it—aim for a delivery where a bit of breath escapes.

iri – Wonderland (Music Video)

On nights when you want to add a touch of color to an otherwise unchanging day, I recommend a classic by iri.

Buoyant, bouncy keyboard tones layer with her signature husky, composed vocals to create a perfectly comfortable track.

It carries a message about treasuring the small repetitions of everyday life and each passing day, and as you listen, it feels like the tension in your heart gently loosens.

Included on the album “Shade,” released in March 2019, the song drew attention as the CM track for Sony’s “h.ear × WALKMAN” campaign.

Co-created with producer ESME MORI, it features an impressive fusion of warm live instruments and cool electronic sounds.

It’s the perfect number to keep you company as BGM when you want to relax at the end of the day or savor some late-night time to yourself, helping you recharge for tomorrow.

Swampiri6rank/position

iri – Swamp (Music Video)

iri is a female R&B singer who has garnered popularity for her uniquely captivating low voice and sophisticated musicality.

While she has released a number of urban R&B tracks up to now, she’s just put out an alternative R&B song with fewer traditional R&B elements.

That song is Swamp.

This work features almost none of the advanced techniques commonly heard in R&B, such as riffs/runs and falls.

On top of that, the vocal range is wide, making it highly recommended for those who want to score well when performing this kind of Black music.

Seasoniri7rank/position

iri – Season (Music Video)

iri is a female singer-songwriter drawing attention in the Japanese R&B scene.

She has released many smooth R&B tracks, and what truly underpins her flowing musicality is, above all, the resonance in the lower register.

She’s known for having a relatively low voice for a female vocalist, which makes her songs quite singable for men.

Among her tracks, Season is especially recommended.

If you find the falsetto part at the end of the chorus challenging, try singing the lower harmony line instead.

Overall, it’s a very easy song to sing, with a narrow range centered on the lower notes.
