Japanese Hip Hop

[Dream Time]

looking for some good Japanese Hip Hop

so far I have tried Rhymester,Nitro Microphone Underground,a few songs of Zeebra and ShakkaZombie

I don't want to hear gangsta wannabes

and I don't like Rip Slyme...

I can only think of DJ Hasebe right now. Pretty funky, usually instrumental, stuff. I've only heard a few songs but what I've heard was good.

I dunno if m-flo is classed as hiphop or not but you should give a listen to em! I Like them. Got the MC,vocalist and DJ thing going on.

Rip Slyme is... fun.

Oh gosh, there was this duet that were straight up art rap that came to the bay a few months ago....they also came with another rapper that was along the same lines; art-rap...really good....evidently so good I cant remember their names.

Oh well.

what time of hiphop do u like? well the biggest ganxsta wannaba award would go to zeebra and his little brother sphere of influence, the rich kids who act so hardcore its a joke.

well there are still tons of artist for u to listen to..im lazy to list them all so jus check the website in my profile. u can post in their forum over there and im sure they will help u with suggestions.

Japanese hip hop? I find that quite hysterical. A Japanese person doing hip hop? That's so ridiculous...

 

[dj_dricz]

ok....the majority of japanese rap are dominated by gangsta wannabes *cough* m-flo *cough* but it isnt any more ridiculous than a white person doing hip hop.......ok yeah thats still pretty ridiculous

anyways....i reccommend tha blue herb, theyre really good

i guess in any country you go to where hiphop is big, most of the people thats out there on the mainstream is not real(doesnt matter what the colour of ur skin is). even in the states where hiphop originated, thats just how it is...i say if its good music then ill definitely listen to it...


great thread by the way!

I saw some Japanese boys dancing hiphop on the JR station just so naturaly. Dancing does not know race or culture , you are being very rediculous..
