Choose meBAND-MAID
BAND-MAID is a five-woman rock band that performs in maid outfits.
If you hear “they play in maid costumes” and picture a light, jokey band, that’d be a real waste! BAND-MAID’s appeal lies in their heavy sound and high level of musicianship, which stand in stark contrast to their cute looks.
Specifically, SAIKI’s powerful lead vocals blend seamlessly with guitarist-vocalist Miku Kobato’s harmonies.
On top of that, you get KANAMI’s guitar work—making effective use of tapping—MISA’s thick bass, and AKANE’s tight drumming, all fusing into a one-of-a-kind sound that only these five can create!

When you hear “Cherry,” you probably think of Spitz’s famous classic.
This is a remake by bilingual rapper BBY NABE.
The track, posted on TikTok in December 2021, became a hot topic.
Rather than simply covering the original, it adds original lyrics—mixing English and Japanese between the original lines—turning it into an even poppier love song.
It’s a Reiwa-era “Cherry” where BBY NABE’s straightforward, New York–style expressions of love mesh perfectly with the gentle tone of the original.
This is exactly what it means for a classic to be passed down through generations.
