A love song in Western rap
Hip-hop, the most popular genre in contemporary music.
It’s a genre that has been gaining popularity in Japan as well, but there aren’t many rappers who perform love songs.
Strictly speaking, there are rappers who do love songs, but underground rappers tend not to.
Overseas, even rappers active in the underground usually release at least one love song.
Because of that, there’s quite a range when it comes to love songs in hip-hop.

Love songs in Western rap (21–30)
Truth HurtsLizzo
In addition to being a singer, actress, and rapper, Lizzo is a multi-artist who also plays the flute.
Her vocals, delivered from her powerful frame, are remarkably steady, and her rapping is equally commanding.
Among her love songs, the one I especially recommend is Truth Hurts.
You might expect a happy track from the music video, where she wears a wedding dress, but it actually depicts a woman confronting a man for cheating.
Be sure to check it out.
123 feat. Blac YoungstaMoneybagg Yo
Moneybagg Yo, a rapper representing the state of Tennessee.
His style is classic trap music, and every track has outstanding consistency.
He has a strong “thug” image, but he’s actually released love songs as well.
Among his love songs, the one I especially recommend is “123 feat.
Blac Youngsta.” As you can tell from the track and the flow, it portrays a hard-edged man’s approach to love.
It’s a love song that even fans of more masculine tracks can enjoy, so definitely give it a listen.
FallingTrevor Daniel
Trevor Daniel is an artist who has gained popularity with a musical style that mixes pop music and R&B, adding elements of hip-hop.
He’s not hip-hop enough to be called a rapper, but not pop enough to be simply labeled pop, which is why we picked him this time.
His love song “Falling” showcases a stylish melody perfectly matched with lyrics that poignantly depict a man’s aching feelings as he continues to pursue a woman—a true masterpiece.
Take CareYoung Thug
A track by American rapper Young Thug.
It samples James Brown’s 1965 track “I Got You (I Feel Good).” Released in 2017, it reached No.
4 on the U.S.
charts and is included on the mixtape “Beautiful Thugger Girls.”
IncredibleFUTURE
It’s a song that says, “I’ve never been able to trust any woman until now, but you’re different.” True to Future’s reputation for “only rapping about what’s within three meters of him,” the lyrics are packed with familiar, everyday things that make it feel relatable.
The line “Let’s do some hot yoga” gives the track a distinctive flavor.
