#TheMoment brings us a set of instrumentals with Japanese #HipHop artists delivering vocals. (I see D.J. Krush and a few other familiar names from the #JHop / #JRap scene included in the track listing there.)

It's been a while since I've posted any #JRap or #JHop on here. But here's the latest from #IncredibleCoffee.
This is not the first time I've posted Japanese #HipHop on my account, and it won't be the last. It seems like a niche genre for a white guy from the Midwest, but I dove in headfirst when COVID-19 first hit.
(Somewhere in that track list full of kanji and/or other Japanese characters, I can recognize Meiso.)

A Japanese #HipHop compilation that I circle back to every few months or so. (Not sure if I've posted this before, but it always bears repeating.)

("N-I-P-P-S!!!")
For anyone who follows Japanese #HipHop, I'm sure you know this one. In fact, I'm sure I've posted it before (but it always bears repeating).

Another Dev Large tribute -- this one is three hours long (and you get some vocals with this one too).
As a sidenote, I'm sure I've posted this one before, but it bears repeating.

Some #Japanese #HipHop for your timeline.

A set list consisting entirely of Dev Large instrumentals. (Video title translates roughly to "A Sick Infinite World of Instruments", which... yeah, that checks out.)

Sad to say, my lunch break only lasts so long, but here's one more for this Thread.

"Medicine" - Meiso feat. E13 (beats by MA$A$HI)
(Chill hop is a mood; never let anyone tell you otherwise.)

Here's another piece of #Japanese #HipHop for your timeline.

"For the Love" - Meiso
For anyone else who's tried to Google this guy, this is Meiso, a Hawaii and/or Tokyo-based rapper.
Meiso (the rapper) is not to be confused with Meiso (the album), which was produced by D.J. Krush (the- ...uh, the D.J.).
It is #JMusicFriday, and the theme is "chill music."
Bad news: I don't follow a lot of J-Pop.
Good news: I have plenty of #Japanese #HipHop for your timeline.

"One W Nine Five" - Rim
(I've posted this on the Fediverse before, but it always bears repeating.)

Link is another mix of the song linked in "2/". (I wanna say that the second video I linked in this Thread is the remix and that this one is the original, but I would not bet hard money on that.)

Oh, heck, let's do one more!

"Ginga Ga Ten" (sic???) - T.A.K. the Rhyme Head
(Quick disclaimer: The "sic" is doing a lot of heavy lifting. I am not remotely fluent in Japanese and I've seen the title spelled out maybe once or twice from a source that I can't seem to track down at the moment.)

Music of the day and/or #Japanese #HipHop shout-out of the day:
"The Alert" - Tha Blue Herb
Not too much to add, other than I'm pretty sure a random YouTube comment first sent me in the direction of this group.

More from the realm of Japanese #HipHop (a.k.a., #JRap, #JHop...)

"Ca La Mode" - Gagle (feat. Shing02)
I've posted this before as part of my ongoing "here's the world of Japanese #HipHop" posts, but it bears repeating.

Put on those zoot suits, because I've got a jazzy edition from the realm of Japanese #HipHop:
"Dirty 30" - Sunaga T Experience (feat. Zeebra, Muro, Rino Latina Ⅱ, ECD, You the Rock★, SDP)
I stumbled on this one while I was at the office one day. I needed this, I won't lie.

I've included this link in one of my previous posts (maybe a month or two ago), but since I have it queued up today, it's more than worth repeating.
I haven't done a Japanese #HipHop shout-out in quite a while, so here goes...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElGhnMDR0f0
"Ca La Mode" - Gagle (feat. Shing02)
(No particular observations to add, other than that I've kept circling back to this track for the last week or two.)
