For those looking for songs focused on male friendship—especially passionate, brotherly bonds—I recommend “Nakama.” It’s a track by the hip-hop group Ketsumeishi.
Set to a sound that blends ballad and reggae, it sings about the importance of friends.
The latter half plays like a cheer song, making it a great choice to dedicate to a friend embarking on a new path.
One more thing to add: the music video.
It features a star-studded cast of actors and is produced in a drama-like style.

Among them, “Sakura” is a particularly special track for people in their twenties.
Released by Ketsumeishi, this song is considered a timeless classic that colors the scenes of graduation ceremonies.
Its gentle melody and lyrics that depict fluttering cherry blossoms resonate with the heart at the milestone of graduation.
The intro, in particular, seems to symbolize both the joy and the sadness of graduating, stirring the listener’s emotions.
Since the group began their musical activities in 1993, the song has continued to be loved for a long time as an anthem that gives young people a push forward.
Still ranking high in karaoke today, this track can be seen as a message of encouragement to everyone facing graduation.

How about easing the sadness of parting from everyone by belting out this song together? “Namida” (“Tears”) by Ketsumeishi, released in 2004, is a track whose gentle melody warmly embraces the tears that fall.
Tears shed after losing a game, joyful tears after winning, frustrated tears when things don’t go well, and tears of sorrow when parting from friends.
This song gives you permission to let your emotions flow honestly as tears—without thinking it’s the last time so you shouldn’t cry, or that crying is embarrassing.
New lifeKetsumeishi7rank/position
This is a popular song from Ketsumeishi’s indie days that focuses on encounters after farewells and new lives after setting out on a journey.
It’s a refreshing track that encourages those who are starting to forget the excitement and hope of a new life, as well as the fresh feelings they had at that time.
Encounters are seeds of growthKetsumeishi8rank/position
This song, “Encounters Are Seeds of Growth,” could be called a gentle anthem that stays close to the listener’s heart.
Even with its strong message, you can’t help but be drawn in, thinking, “What happens next?”—that’s the power of the artist Ketsumeishi.
The lyric “People can’t grow alone.
We grow through meeting all kinds of people” is 100% relatable.
Its structure, which portrays the reality of human growth, also makes it a perfect BGM choice for all kinds of memory videos.
Don’t forget to show your gratitude to everyone—friends, seniors, teachers, homeroom teachers, club advisors, the cafeteria cooks, and more! It’s a classic that opens the album Ketsuno-Police 7.
