Recommendation of “Vocaloid Rap”: A roundup of popular hip‑hop-style Vocaloid tracks (71–80)
Chasing Drama with Corvustomato gyuunyuu
It’s such a dazzling, extravagant piece that I want to introduce it with the word “gorgeous.” This track by Vocaloid producer Tomato Milk was released in 2021.
It was created for the project themed around Kagamine Rin and Len, “kagamination FESTA.” As the video description notes, it’s a number that fuses a wide range of musical elements—hip-hop, Chinese-style sounds, EDM, and more.
Maybe that’s why it never gets boring! No matter where you start playing it, it’s delightful.
Be sure to check out this luxurious, glamorous Vocaloid song!
ReincarnationATOLS
It’s a Vocaloid rap with a philosophical worldview.
The track is by ATOLS, a Vocaloid producer whose sophisticated sound captivates fans, and it was released in March 2023.
The noise-tinged, dreamlike electronic tones are incredibly cool, and the brain-rattling low end is outstanding.
I feel it pushes the possibilities of voice libraries further than ever before.
By the way, KOPERU from the hip-hop group Umeda Cypher participated in writing the lyrics.
ARTIFICIAL SKINPSGOZ
I’m hooked on the edgy electronic sound.
It’s a track by the duo music unit PSGO-Z, released in 2015.
Despite being built with a minimal number of elements, the song feels rich—perhaps thanks to its structure and flow.
Recommended for those who like stylish tracks.
R.O.C.K.E.TTorero
It has a refreshing guitar rock-style sound, yet you can hear a rapped melody line and some scratch phrases.
It’s a piece by Torero, who has released many Vocaloid rap songs.
It was published in 2013.
As the creator notes, it has a summery finish that wouldn’t feel out of place blasting at a music festival.
Scrap Asobaseihakushi
A satirical Vocaloid rap about modern society—absolutely irresistible.
This work by Ihakushi was released in August 2024.
Jazzy electronic sounds set the mood, topped with Yuki Kaai’s innocent vocals that seize the listener’s heart and don’t let go.
The lyrics embody a strong resolve in the spirit of music-making: “Do what you want to do.” It should especially resonate with creators.
I highly recommend it to anyone exploring new forms of expression.
