Salsa TequilaAnders Nilsen

Anders Nilsen is a singer-songwriter from Norway.
He’s active not only as an artist but also as a record producer.
His biggest appeal is, without a doubt, his humor-filled dance tunes.
You can enjoy his distinctive melodies in “Salsa Tequila.” On TikTok, the track is used as background music for a variety of videos.
Its upbeat, catchy melody makes it easy to use in videos, so it’s highly recommended.

bad guyBillie Eilish

Billie Eilish, the breakout newcomer everyone’s talking about.
Her popularity is rapidly rising here in Japan, too! This is one of her signature songs.
Since it’s been covered by all kinds of media here, you’ve probably heard it at least once.
The catchy bassline, somewhat unexpectedly, feels perfect for running.
Her debut album, released in March 2019, hit No.
1 on the UK charts, and she quickly emerged as a standout talent.
In the U.S., she became the first artist born in the 2000s to top the album chart, and in the UK, she became the youngest woman to reach No.
1 on the albums chart.
She’s truly a star rewriting the history of the entertainment industry.
Closer ft. HalseyThe Chainsmokers

This song topped the Billboard chart and became a long-running hit.
Apparently, it was played constantly in clubs overseas.
The Chainsmokers are a duo of American artists, and this track features Halsey, a young American female singer.
Its secret to popularity is the comfortable, medium-tempo rhythm that isn’t overbearing and slips right in.

A track by Jamaican reggae artist Kranium featuring fellow Jamaican international star Shaggy.
Incredibly, it has surpassed 1 billion streams! Its breezy, super laid-back vibe is addictive.
It enjoyed long-lasting love on TikTok in 2020 with trends like #Bananadrop and the #sunglasses-slide dance, inspiring countless videos.
It’s fun as background music and has an upbeat, feel-good rhythm that lifts your mood!
Bad DayDaniel Powter

It’s a song that captivates listeners right from the start, with an impressive, beautiful piano tone.
It’s a classic hit by Canadian musician Daniel Powter from 2005.
It spent five consecutive weeks at No.
1 on the US charts.
As the title “Bad Day” suggests, I recommend reading the lyrics and then listening to the song when you’re feeling down and out of energy.
I truly believe this song has a healing effect.
Toosie SlideDrake

Drake is a Canadian rapper who, alongside his work as a rapper, is also active as an actor.
Even if you’re not very familiar with hip-hop, you probably know him, right? He has a strong public-facing image and doesn’t rap about hardcore themes, so fans of gangsta rap might not find him to their taste, but I think his sound is just right for a more casual audience.
His songs are basically built around trap music.
Unsurprisingly, he’s extremely popular with young people and generated a lot of buzz on social media.
