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.

"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.

"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 yesterday. 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...

"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.)

"Nitro Microphone Underground - #Japanese #HipHop Mix"
(I've let my weekly #JHop and #JRap shout-outs slide lately; I'm assuming that fills my quota for a while.)

More Japanese #HipHop for your timeline and mine.
"Yeti" - Meiso
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Txz348gjbs4
More Japanese #HipHop for your BGM needs...
追われてる(rough transl: "Chasing") - Soul Scream (feat. Zeebra)
Including Japanese characters... just because.

More from the realm of Japanese #HipHop:
君の瞳に映るオレに乾杯 - Rhymester (off of their album Egotopia)
Track title translates roughly to "Cheers to Me Reflected In Your Eyes." (I'm including Japanese text characters... mostly just because.)

"Tenun Wareniari (Utsuyoui)" - Buddha Brand
According to Google translate, the track title roughly translates to "Heavenly luck, ready to shoot."

Another track from the realm of Japanese #HipHop.
"Eyes of Stevie Wonder" - ECD

Some music to wind down for the night, and the work week.
"Asama131" - Nitro Microphone Underground
I've been debating just which song of theirs to add to the Mastodon fire hose. This works as well as any of them.
For the curious, Nitro Microphone Underground is the closest thing Japan has to their own Wu Tang Clan.

Music to wrap up the day to.
"One W Nine Five (1995)" - Rim
From what little research I've managed, apparently Rim is a... relatively short-lived Japanese rap artist (from the nineties, natch) with one three-track CD to her name. Quality beats quantity, though.
Also, props to the uploader for helping keep classic J-Rap alive on YouTube.
