Justin Bieber – Honest ft. Don Toliver

Justin Bieber’s classic “Honest” featuring Don Toliver.

With a collaboration with a rapper, the work strongly showcases hip-hop characteristics.

While rap can seem difficult to sing, the rap in this track is relatively laid-back, so as long as your pronunciation is reasonably good, there’s no need to worry.

If you want to deliver stylish hip-hop with confidence, be sure to check it out.

This is an impressive 2024 release by an American alternative rock band formed in 1996, featuring a new vocalist.

Despite the hard, slightly dark guitar sound, the rhythm is more energetic and groovy than ever, pushing you forward with force and flooding the track with an aggressive yet catchy vibe.

If you’re going to sing this one, it’s best to honor the original arrangement and go all-in with a male–female duet to ramp up the excitement.

Give it a shot with shouts powerful enough to make the karaoke room vibrate.

About Damn TimeLizzo

Lizzo – About Damn Time [Official Video]

About Damn Time, sung by American singer and rapper Lizzo, is a cheerful dance tune with lyrics that make you feel so good you stop caring about trivial things.

You can sing this song well by paying attention to the rhythm.

In particular, for the rap parts, keep the backbeat—putting emphasis on beats 2 and 4—in mind, and slightly lengthen the ends of words to create a looser feel that sounds cooler.

If you also lock in with the recurring “tan, tan, tan” hits that appear throughout the track, you’ll get even closer to the original.

Made You LookMeghan Trainor

Meghan Trainor – Made You Look (Official Music Video)

As a Western song to try at karaoke, I recommend Meghan Trainor’s “Made You Look.” Hugely popular on TikTok, this track tells you that you’re beautiful enough without wearing any special designer brands.

Its lively, Latin-tinged rhythm lifts your spirits and boosts your confidence.

If you want to stand out, take on the challenge of its lyrics and melody.

It’ll be a moment where your unique self-love truly shines.

Lux ÆternaMetallica

Metallica: Lux Æterna (Official Music Video)

How about instantly hyping up the crowd with some heavy metal? In that spirit, I’d like to introduce “Lux Æterna.” It’s a track released in 2022 by the legendary heavy metal band Metallica.

They’ve put out countless songs over the years, but this one stands out for its especially intense sound.

The most important point when singing this song is the shout.

If you don’t usually sing heavy metal, try practicing that high-pitched screaming vocal technique.

Olivia Rodrigo – bad idea right? (Official Video)

Not only is it cool, but “bad idea right?” is also perfect for when you want to belt it out and stretch away the stress.

This song was released by singer-songwriter Olivia Rodrigo.

It’s a rock track with striking drum and bass elements, and the lyrics portray a woman torn over whether to meet her ex.

This situation seems to have been inspired by her real-life experiences.

Perhaps that’s why the vocals feel so passionate, like she’s pouring her heart out.

Try copying her and sing it out at full volume.

get him back!Olivia Rodrigo

Olivia Rodrigo – get him back! (Official Video)

Olivia Rodrigo is active as an actress and singer.

Let me introduce her song “get him back!” It’s a track from the album Guts that portrays a woman who wants to get back together with her ex.

It’s fun how she rattles off one idea after another for how to win him back.

Although it’s a breakup song, it isn’t too somber, so it’s sure to hype things up when you sing it.

Also, the chorus has a slower tempo with lots of sustained notes, making it a great chance to really belt it out.
