RIP SLYME Karaoke Popular Songs Ranking [2025] (1–10)
Paradise BabyRIP SLYME1rank/position
When you think of Japanese hip-hop, you might picture something a bit cool and hard to get into.
That’s exactly why I recommend this track released by RIP SLYME in June 2002.
Its breezy rap over cheerful bossa nova and samba rhythms will lift your mood the moment you listen.
The masterpiece album TOKYO CLASSIC, which includes this song, became the first Japanese hip-hop album to sell over a million copies.
The lyrics evoke a summer vibe where reason gives way to liberation—perfect for getting the energy up when singing karaoke with friends.
And even though it’s hip-hop, the melody is easy to pick up, so consider adding it to your repertoire.

This is a RIP SLYME track that paints a passionate love story unfolding on a humid summer night.
Released in July 2007, it was featured in a Coca-Cola campaign commercial, and its catchy sound captured the hearts of many.
As the members themselves describe it as “ero-dasai” (sexy yet tacky in a cool way), the slightly grown-up vibe and playful word choices create a striking contrast.
With distinctive raps weaving over an addictive looped track, it’s a song that feels perfect for a summer night drive, no matter the era.

A track by RIP SLYME that’s popular even in living rooms across the country.
Incorporating an acoustic guitar sound, the mellow hip-hop track carries a sense of melancholy.
With a textured, catchy hook, it’s a classic perfect for autumn and one I can recommend to men in their thirties.
Twilight SurroundRIP SLYME4rank/position
A medium-tempo tune that wraps you in the autumn night breeze right from the intro.
The acoustic guitar’s sound—somehow wistful yet warm—really seeps into your heart, perfect for twilight.
It offers a mellow, calm charm that’s different from RIP SLYME’s typically upbeat image.
The lyrics trace the flow of time from dusk to dawn, inviting a sentimental mood as you listen.
Released in October 2004 as their 10th single, this track is also included on the classic album “MASTERPIECE.” It’s perfect for long autumn night drives, and it’s great to sing gently at karaoke, too.
Keep a smooth, flowing delivery in mind, and enjoy it cool and mellow!

With a sprightly piano intro and a bouncy beat, this track heralds the start of a joyous, heart-lifting time.
Centered on the exhilaration and togetherness of people meeting and connecting, the members’ tight-knit mic relay creates a warm groove that feels like an easygoing conversation among close friends.
Released in June 2003 as their seventh single, it was featured in an NTT DoCoMo Melody Call commercial and also served as a bridge to the album “TIME TO GO.” Put it on during a drive with friends or a house party and the vibe is sure to get even more fun.
It’s perfect for those moments when you want to soak in happy feelings and add a splash of color to everyday life.

Released in July 2015 as part of a triple A-side single, it was also included on the album “10.” In addition to serving as the theme song for Fuji TV’s “ENGEI Grand Slam,” it was featured in GU’s web magazine campaign, and its fashion-infused music video drew attention as well.
It’s a vibrant track that naturally brings a smile and courage when you want to lift your spirits and take a new step forward.
