  • The RAPMEN[1] (RAPMEN[2]?, RAPMEN), also written as the Rap Men (ラップメン?, Rappu Men), are two red and yellow men who rap about snacks. They appear in the Rhythm Game of the same name in Rhythm Tengoku.

    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 shown to be Racing Fans, and they appear on a poster advertising the Battle of the Bands. Their phone number appears to be (555) ROCK-OUT, as inputting said number 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.
