RIP SLYME – Rakuen Baby

When you think of Japanese hip-hop, you might picture something a bit cool and hard to get into.

That’s exactly why I recommend this track released by RIP SLYME in June 2002.

Its breezy rap over cheerful bossa nova and samba rhythms will lift your mood the moment you listen.

The masterpiece album TOKYO CLASSIC, which includes this song, became the first Japanese hip-hop album to sell over a million copies.

The lyrics evoke a summer vibe where reason gives way to liberation—perfect for getting the energy up when singing karaoke with friends.

And even though it’s hip-hop, the melody is easy to pick up, so consider adding it to your repertoire.

RIP SLYME – Tropical Night

This is a RIP SLYME track that paints a passionate love story unfolding on a humid summer night.

Released in July 2007, it was featured in a Coca-Cola campaign commercial, and its catchy sound captured the hearts of many.

As the members themselves describe it as “ero-dasai” (sexy yet tacky in a cool way), the slightly grown-up vibe and playful word choices create a striking contrast.

With distinctive raps weaving over an addictive looped track, it’s a song that feels perfect for a summer night drive, no matter the era.

RIP SLYME – One

A track by RIP SLYME that’s popular even in living rooms across the country.

Incorporating an acoustic guitar sound, the mellow hip-hop track carries a sense of melancholy.

With a textured, catchy hook, it’s a classic perfect for autumn and one I can recommend to men in their thirties.

RIP SLYME – Twilight Surround

A medium-tempo tune that wraps you in the autumn night breeze right from the intro.

The acoustic guitar’s sound—somehow wistful yet warm—really seeps into your heart, perfect for twilight.

It offers a mellow, calm charm that’s different from RIP SLYME’s typically upbeat image.

The lyrics trace the flow of time from dusk to dawn, inviting a sentimental mood as you listen.

Released in October 2004 as their 10th single, this track is also included on the classic album “MASTERPIECE.” It’s perfect for long autumn night drives, and it’s great to sing gently at karaoke, too.

Keep a smooth, flowing delivery in mind, and enjoy it cool and mellow!

RIP SLYME – Wacha Wacha

A track by RIP SLYME, who reunited as a five-piece to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their major debut.

Its breezy hip-hop sound blends perfectly with each member’s distinctive rap style.

The funky, energetic beat naturally makes listeners want to dance.

Released digitally on May 28, 2025, it’s also included on the best-of album “GREATEST FIVE,” released that July.

Brimming with bright, positive energy, this song is perfect for getting hyped with friends or lifting your mood!

RIP SLYME – Do ON

RIP SLYME’s first track made with all five members together in about nine years is perfect for getting any party going.

Released in April 2025, it shifts from a grand intro into a high-velocity track, with the four MCs firing off a relay of verses.

The title is a coined word by the members that represents the thing everyone “can’t stop being obsessed with,” delivering positive energy to listeners.

DJ FUMIYA’s production strikes a superb balance—embracing contemporary sounds while staying true to the group’s identity.

They’re also slated to appear at JAPAN JAM 2025 in May, so the live hype is highly anticipated.

It’s a great pick for instantly brightening up a wedding performance, an event opening, and any moment when you want to energize the crowd!

FUNKASTICRIP SLYME7rank/position

RIP SLYME – FUNKASTIC

It’s a song that becomes more addictive the more you listen, with charmingly funny and tricky synth sounds and a compelling track.

It might be hard to learn at first, but once you’ve got it down, it’s no big deal.

Sing it at karaoke and it’ll definitely get the crowd going.
