Thoughts of Zuo-Teng

MC HIME is a Japanese rapper that i am very fond of.

Her music is powerful and lyrics are meaningful.

Compared to American rap, the style is so different, we dont sing about guns and "fucking a bitch, or bitches"... japanese rap is politically minded. Hime often sings about equality of women in japan and other interesting issues.

When listening to Hime song Tateba shakuyaku i can feel its a blend of hop-hop and japanese poetry.

A truely great artist and representitive of japans urban culture.

Here is a couple more videos of other J-hiphop

Japanese hi-hop is turely number one !!
