beautiful womanCHANMINA
One of Japan’s leading female rappers, Chanmina.
She has many hit tunes, but the track I especially recommend is Bijin.
The most challenging point of this song is definitely the final chorus.
Usually, a final chorus is like a variation of the main hook, but in this piece it functions more like a bridge, unfolding a melody completely different from the earlier choruses.
That’s where the mixed voice comes in—and it’s extremely difficult.
Maintaining high notes with power and presence is tough, so if you’re confident in your vocal ability, definitely give it a try.
Utakata LullabyAdo
It’s one of the insert songs from the movie ONE PIECE FILM RED and the only rap track! When I first heard “Utakata Lullaby,” I was shocked, like, “Can a human even sing this?” But thinking about it now, since the song was provided by FAKE TYPE.
, it all makes sense—“So that’s why it’s so rap-heavy!” The songs from the ONE PIECE FILM RED series are insanely popular, and I’ve taught them many times in lessons! Especially this “Utakata Lullaby”—we looked over the lyrics again and again and discussed with students which parts are actually sung and which aren’t.
There are tons of ultra-fast rap sections, and if you listen closely, there are places where there are lyrics but they’re not actually sung.
Once you notice that, you can lock into the rhythm, making it easier and more fun to sing! If you tried before and gave up, give it another shot!
BiscuitCHANMINA
Chanmina is a female rapper who has earned strong support from many women, armed with outstanding musicality and fashion.
Among her many hit tunes, the one I especially recommend is Biscuit.
While the overall vibe of this track is on the downbeat side, there’s a section in the C melody where she delivers a mix voice with powerful shouts.
Anyone can match the pitch, but producing a mix voice with that level of impact is extremely challenging—so give it a try!
TipTapMiisa Shimizu
Misa Shimizu is a female singer who’s active not only in the music scene but also on variety shows, thanks to her bright personality and strong vocal skills.
Influenced by Western music, she consistently showcases techniques that rival those of overseas artists.
Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is TipTap.
Because it’s a jazzy track, it doesn’t lean on obvious challenges like high notes; instead, it demands more advanced techniques such as groove and vocal improvisation (feats/“fakes”).
No.5LANA
Singer-songwriter LANA, a driving force in Japan’s R&B scene.
She’s also the sister of rapper LEX, and together the siblings have had a major impact on Japan’s Black music landscape.
Among LANA’s songs, the one I especially recommend is her new track, “No.
5.” It’s not flashy, but because it’s rooted in R&B, you’ll hear advanced vocal techniques like ad-libs and falls woven into the details.
For many Japanese singers, whose vocals can tend to sound monotone, this might be one of the most challenging types of songs.
RE RESCUEREOL
Reol is a female singer who’s constantly dropping hit tunes and making a huge impact on Japan’s dance music scene.
She has many popular tracks, but the one I especially recommend is RE RESCUE.
The real challenge in this song is the chorus.
Near the end of the chorus, there’s a section where you repeatedly switch between chest voice and falsetto.
It’s not just about using falsetto—you also need to maintain volume and deliver a slightly shout-like tone within it, which makes the difficulty quite high.
Definitely give it a try.

A world where the sun does not riseAimer
This song, which is also the theme for “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle Arc: Chapter 1 Akaza’s Return,” spans roughly E3 to E5 and is quite advanced to sing on a first try.
When I first heard it, Aimer’s English-like diction made me think, “Is this a Western song?” but it’s firmly in Japanese (lol).
The A section is sung phrase by phrase in the lower register, but from around the B section it gradually becomes more emotional.
There are plenty of high notes, but rather than belting them in chest voice, using a strong head voice brings out both the poignancy and the power, matching the song’s mood.
From low to high notes, try singing with your eyebrows slightly raised to help stabilize pitch!
