    Story

    The RAPMEN have gained fans across many age groups with their relatable lyrics. They appear in an interview on the radio, where the red one talks all cool and casual-like, while the yellow one is a little bored, as he doesn't need to speak on the air[3]. Their rivals, the Rap Women, not only stole the RAPMEN's popularity, but also their snacks[4].

    The RAPMEN are revealed to be Racing Fans, and they appear on a poster advertising the Battle of the Bands. The phone number listed on said poster appears to belong to them, as dialing (555) ROCK-OUT into the Phone has the RAPMEN pick up.

    The RAPMEN appeared at Live House OGU as the opening act before The Love Posse feat. MC Adore perform their anticipated new single "Love Rap". They also appear in framed pictures in the Weasel Couple's home, along with Marshal, Cam, and Miss Ribbon's.

    They make a cameo among the Racing Fans in Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic 33レスラーとファン (Wrestler and Fans), where several silhouettes of the Racing Fans form a crowd outside of the Rhythm Arena.

    "おやつ　ですか？" (Oyatsu desuka??, It's snack time, right?)
