Survival of the Illest (Sounds of Silence Ver.)

Bring the Beat!

[Alexis:]

Covert in the shadows, a patriot stands tall

Sworn to protect her country, she'll answer the call

With love for her nation, her resolve never bends

Against all her enemies, her will, she defends

We're Arakawa!

[Diệu & Ivelisse:]

Yes, we're worth it!

[Alexis:]

Do we deserve the winners' spot?

[Diệu & Ivelisse:]

Yes, we earned it!

[Alexis:]

In the silence of secrets, where truths are untold

We all move with a purpose, fearless and bold

[Diệu:]

With a whisper, I command, with a look, I disarm

In a world of play, I'm the wild card that charms

I walk a fine line, where angels fear to tread

A lady in the streets, but a true legend in the red

[Ivelisse:]

Eyes on the prize, mind clear as ice

Guru navigates the noise with silent advice

In the heat of the moment, I am the storm's eye

Calm, cool, collected, always aiming high

[Sounds of Silence:]

I'm so hypnotic, now together with us

Got to keep goin'

Rhyme and beat, flow, and you (Hey!)

They're essential, and you (Hey!)

Again, again

I'm so hypnotic, now together with us

Got to keep goin'

Rhyme and beat, flow, and you (Hey!)

They're essential, and you (Hey!)

[Ivelisse:]

City's on fire!

[Sounds of Silence:]

Who's no.1, wicked

This is now a scene, it's a must-see

Survival of the illest!

[Ivelisse:]

Survival of the Illest (Private Party Ver.)

Bring the Beat!

[Kai:]

In the booth with my fam, it's a family affair

We mix, we scratch, we throw our hands in the air

Beats bond us together, like notes in a song

With every gig we play, our family bond grows strong

[Mireya and Zakari:]

Roppongi Vice is on top!

[Kai:]

And no, we won't flop!

And even in the sky, we'll keep climbing; we won't stop!

These words spoken are by the one and only DJ Veenyle

And yes, you'd best believe that that is final!

[Mireya:]

You tryin' to top me? Ha! Honey, please

I'm so far above you, you can't even see me

There's only room for one queen, and no, it is not thee

The title only belongs to the one known as Gypsy!

[Zakari:]

In the church, I pray, but in the casino, I play

Winning, making money, yeah, I do this everyday

An ironic name, traffic at five, all noise and no go

It's really no wonder that you move so slow

[Private Party:]

I'm so hypnotic, now together with us

Got to keep goin'

Rhyme and beat, flow, and you (Hey!)

They're essential, and you (Hey!)

Again, again

I'm so hypnotic, now together with us

Rhyme and beat, flow, and you (Hey!)

Survival of the Illest (Wicked Requiem Ver.)

Bring The Beat!

[Yuriko:]

Think Wicked Requiem is sugar, spice, and everything nice?

Ha! You rolled the wrong set of dice 

No, we’re made up of cunning, wisdom, and brawn

Don't go thinking of us as simple pawns 

In this game of chess, I’m a queen 

Planning my next move with graceful serene 

[Kaoru & Kanra:]

Sound the drums of war!

Wicked Requiem is joining in!

Time to settle the score!

[Kaoru:]

Lines of codes flashing in my mind 

A genius that won’t ever be confined

People say that I'm off the wall

Only because they can’t control me at all

[Kanra:]

Just because I'm the smallest of the bunch 

That doesn’t mean I won't pack a punch

There's nothing artificial about me 

Just wait and you'll see 

[Wicked Requiem:]

Rhyme and beat, flow, and you (Hey!)

Survival of the Illest (Silent Tragedy Ver.)

Bring The Beat!

[Kanon:]

Rising from the grave just call me the living dead

Driven by revenge, I’ll rip my enemies to shred 

I won't stop until I have complete annihilation 

Even if it sends me to eternal damnation

They say violence for violence is the rule of beasts

Ha! Then let me gorge myself on this violent feast

[Reika & Sakura:]

Time for an all out rumble!

Silent Tragedy runs the stage!

Better pray that you don’t stumble!

[Reika:]

A glass of wine in hand and a vial of poison in the other 

I can’t say I was the perfect lover 

Not my fault they couldn't see beyond my lovely face 

To blind to see their incoming fall from grace 

[Sakura:]

How does the bastard daughter become the family head?

Simple, really, she pumps them full of lead

It's out with the old and in with the new gen

Watch your step because this is Renegade’s den

[Silent Tragedy:]

I'm so hypnotic, now together with us

Got to keep goin'

Survival of the Illest (Death Row Block Ver.)

Bring The Beat!

[Akihisa:]

Katsushika we’re the worst of the worst 

Murder is something we have well versed

As punishment for committing unspeakable crimes

Freedom isn't in our lifetime 

They have our necks being threatened by a noose

So it’s time for us to let loose!

[Touya & Rintaro:]

Death Row Block is bringing the slaughter!

Don't expect to survive!

It’s come hell or high water!

[Touya:]

Every day I fear that this life is a fantasy 

That I'll wake up with no family

All alone just like before 

Nothing more than a dirty whore 

[Rintaro:]

A volatile reaction ready to be set ablaze 

Created from my pyromaniac craze

So don't go and try provoking me

I’ll smoke you out for all to see

[Death Row Block:]

I’m so hypnotic, now together with us

Got to keep goin’

Rhyme and beat, flow, and you (Hey!)

Survival of the Illest (Birds of Prey Ver.)

Bring the Beat!

[Chinami:]

Time, it is one that we all must fight

There's no hiding from it; it sees all in its sight

We inevitably lose more often than we win

But as one life ends, another one begins

[Kira & Taria:]

So, we'll live our lives as best we can!

[Chinami:]

On this spot in our city, we made our stand!

[Kira & Taria:]

You can say what you want; we don't care if we're judged!

[Chinami:]

As long as we're together, Ōta will not budge!

[Kira:]

Strong and firm I must be to achieve victory

I don't care about rewards or making history

My only goal is to see the truth hidden behind the lies

And I don't care about the cost, it's worth the surprise

[Taria:]

A twist, a turn, and the lock is undone

And the rewards inside shine just like the sun

And when the work is done, I'll be like a bird in the sky

I'll flap my wings happily, all whilst yelling, 'Goodbye!'

For what need do I have to run, cower, or hide?

His holy presence empowers me every single day

So I've no fear of fools who dare bar my way

Ginza City

[Eiji & Oki:]

Yeah, we're on top!

[Masa:]

And will that ever change?

[Eiji & Oki:]

No, we won't stop!

[Masa:]

With intellect and strength, we stand above the rest

If you doubt us, come and put your worth to the test

[Eiji:]

Fast forward into the future

Connecting it all together, I am the suture

Even if I come across a large wall

For my family, I'll gladly risk it all!

[Oki:]

The Titan, ATLAS, he has no restraints

I'll make my way through anything without any complaints

My lyrics are my sword and my mic's the instrument

Fuck with Ginza, you won't escape your punishment!

[scolek]

really an album made to troll hypsters' long suffering friends. none of your protestations hold any weight anymore. theres no lore behind any of this shit. most of it isnt even rap so you cant go from that angle. kimusuba containment procedures have been followed and hes only in one song which isnt even as good as any of his other solos. teddyloid worked on it dj coo worked on it fucking anybody. worked on it.

no recourse. you have no arguments against it.

Arakawa Division 🦊

Arakawa Division Sounds of Silence is an all-female rap group consisting of the renowned yoga instructor, Ivelisse Martinez, the jewel designer, Hoàng Diệu, and the photographer and Division leader, Alexis Ward.

The group's color is black, as the color meshes well with other colors. It is also considered to be the color of 'silence'.

The group's symbol is that of the fox, an animal that is commonly associated with being sly, cunning, cautious, and above all, silent. They are also associated with spirituality, cleverness, and trickery, three aspects that define each member of the team.

The group has some form of a fox on them. Alexis has a fox charm pendant on the collar of her suit jacket, Diệu has a tattoo of a fox on the back of her right leg, and Ivelisse has a fox charm bracelet on her left wrist.

The group's hand sign from Rhyme Anima is them placing their index finger on their lips, signifying 'silence'.

The three have seemingly nothing in connection with one another, but all three are bonded together by the love of their respective countries. And though they don't necessarily trust each other, they have agreed to work together until they have each fulfilled their individual objectives, which is finding out what Chuohku is up to.

[fukuokanodivision]

OverDrive is Fukuoka’s representative rap team. It consists of butler Yuno Kamora, professional dancer Mai Yousei and their leader, idol Eko Seishin.

Their theme colour is electric blue, hence being similar to the natural element electricity. But it also highlights their drive to reach their ambitions.

The groups symbol is an electric blue music note that all 3 members have on an accessory; A chain on Eko’s watch, a design on Mai’s hat and a clip on Yuno’s bracer. It’s meant to represent their huge connection to the hypnosis mic which lead to the teams formation. The groups hand sign is the palm slightly down, which in body language means dominance.

Eko, Mai and Yuno are all childhood friends, as their strong ties put them together. In this sense, their rap styles are similar, but have their originality. All of them have had encounters with the hypnosis mic, which drives them to reach their goal through the hardships they’ve faced alone and as a team. They decided to enter the DRB to get closer to Chuohku and overthrow The Party of Words for good. ______________________________________ Now becoming a blockbuster team, their combined ambition only soars higher and higher. Continuing to make massive waves, OverDrives true chain of objectives unknowingly changed. Now immersed and placed in the DRB, their main objective resides in having “fun” with the other divisions, with their 1st official team “mission” lying on one acquired target — Taking their division back by force from a few “forsaken” defenders. (Asks/Collabarations are encouraged here.)

Roppongi Division 🌃

Roppongi Division Private Party is a rap group consisting of the extreme stuntman, Zakari Hiroya, nightclub owner, Mireya Quinlan, and highly acclaimed disk jockey and Division leader, Kai Quinlan.

The group's color is midnight blue, the color of the night sky, which is when the city comes alive and people get into all kinds of mischief, whilst letting their true selves show.

The group's symbol is that of the moon and stars, two symbols associated with nighttime, which, as mentioned, is when the city comes alive.

The group has some form of the moon and stars on their person. Kai has a moon and stars tattoo behind his left ear, Mireya has a moon and stars charm at the end of the necklace she wears, and Zakari has a moon and stars adorning his hoodie.

The group's hand sign from Rhyme Anima is the 'Y' sign from ASL, which is your index, middle, and ring fingers touching the palm of your hand, whilst your thumb and pinkie finger are pointing outward.

All three members are revered as 'Roppongi's #1 Family'. The nightlife, music, dancing, gambling and good times are what unite these three. And though they were forced by Chuohku into entering their rap tournament, they've chosen to see it as a positive in hopes that they can throw the biggest and loudest party Japan has ever seen.

30 Day HypMic Challenge!

DAY 13: A SONG THAT REMINDS YOU OF A SPECIFIC DAY

🎤 SURVIVAL OF THE ILLEST +

Not really much to say about this one because it speaks for itself with how iconic it is (CITY'S ON FIYAAAAH)~

It doesn't remind me of a specific day exactly, but it was the song that my best friend and I blasted for a week straight when she came over to stay at my house for the first time. Every single time we went somewhere this lil shit was playing in the car. We were CITY'S ON FIYAAAHing our way through life, even when I brought her to a bloody wedding.

So yeah, it's now a meme. And it will stay a meme. HYO.

[frescawhorechata]

Sometimes my brain just takes me to really dark places and I start forcing myself to think about banging pots and pans shouting “the end is finally here!”

So then I just have this smirk on my face and I laugh by myself.

Survival of the illest baby (or whatever the fuck they said)
