THE BLUE HEARTS are a band that represents Japanese punk.

Their song “Jōnetsu no Bara” (Rose of Passion) is their ninth single and reached number one on the Oricon chart.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call it one of their signature songs.

I’ll tell you what you don’t know—listen up, SHOW.TOKONA-X

Tokona-X, the legendary rapper representing Aichi.

He passed away from heatstroke at age 26, but among heads he’s still spoken of as a legend.

His appeal lies in a composure that’s hard to believe for someone in their twenties, combined with fiery vibes.

His track “Shirazaa Itte Kikaserya SHOW” is a classic where you can feel those intense vibes the most.

Within Japanese rap it leans old-school, so the rhymes aren’t complex, but the lyrical message is very strong—highly recommended.

Perfect for training, too!
