Drifters’ tongue twistersZa Dorifutāzu
This song feels like it was lifted straight from the “Shonen Shoujo Gasshoutai” segment of the legendary variety show It’s 8 O’Clock! Everybody Assemble! On the show, it was customary for guests to join in, but this single is sung only by The Drifters.
Set to the melody of Wilson Pickett’s “Don’t Knock My Love,” the members of The Drifters recite tongue twisters—a straightforward concept.
The tongue twisters used in the song are ones everyone knows, and thanks to the sound production, it seems like a fun way to practice them.
The punchline is Ken Shimura’s part at the end, which faithfully recreates the comedy sketch, so it’s a highlight to watch for.

CYBER RUI is a rapper known for her overwhelming skill among female rappers.
She’s a young artist who gained popularity after appearing on the hit show “Rap Star Tanjou.” The track “GET IT feat.
HAKU” is a collaboration with HAKU, who’s known for his high-tone rap, and features some fairly fast verses.
Among the songs introduced this time, it’s on the slower side, but the flow shifts rapidly, making it quite enjoyable in its own way.
Helpless HoeMARIA
Recently, more skilled female rappers like Chanmina and Ciber Rui have been emerging.
These days, in terms of pure skill it’s Ciber Rui, and in terms of popularity it’s Chanmina who could be called the queens of female hip-hop, right? Before they came onto the scene, MARIA was renowned as the queen.
A track where you can savor her rapid-fire flow is “Helpless Hoe.” From the very first verse, the fast-paced rap energy hits hard.
CarnivalKetsumeishi
Carnival is a fun, upbeat track with a samba-like rhythm that’s quintessentially Ketsumeishi.
Released as a single in 2007, it seems to be widely used by professional baseball players as a song to pump themselves up.
Its fast, wave-riding flow and driving beat are cool and exciting! With rapid-fire delivery that lets you feel the joy of the rhythm, it’s perfect not only for hyping up live shows but also for creating a fun, everyone-together vibe at karaoke.
The melody is easy to sing, making it a top recommendation for anyone who wants to try a fast-paced vocal style!
Shut up.Ado
A punk rock sound that thrusts to the forefront, with a roar-like vocal that sent shockwaves through the music industry and a forceful, almost violent melody.
This shocking work channels, with explosive energy, the sense of dissonance young people feel toward society and their determination to resist the expectations and oppression around them.
As Ado’s major-label debut, the track was released digitally in October 2020 and received high acclaim across the board, including winning the Breakthrough Song at the M Television VMAJ 2021.
It’s a song that gives courage—powerfully pushing the backs of those who struggle to express their true feelings and worry about others’ eyes and judgments.
Red HotELLEGARDEN
ELLEGARDEN’s high-speed pop-punk track “Red Hot” is included on their 2005 album RIOT ON THE GRILL.
This piece fuses exhilarating, fast-paced guitar riffs with a chorus melody that strikes the heart, creating a distinctive masterpiece where wistfulness and energy coexist.
The lyrics, steeped in Takeshi Hosomi’s unique worldview, depict the growth and setbacks of a protagonist who seems fragile at first glance.
Riding an exhilarating beat and hitting you right in the chest, the song distills the very appeal of pop punk.
