This is fun to watch and relevent to what we were talking about last night in class. As they say in the repoert these rappers are completely different from what our American culture thinks of rappers. However, I don't think that they would win over American youths and become the voice of the generation with their style, rythmn, and lyrics!

I love it. Polite Rap. What a unique concept. I'd love to hear chatter from American Rappers regarding foreign rappers. I wonder if there is a forum for discussion about this?

Hahaha, that's awesome. Nell, I don't know anything about what American rappers think of foreign rappers, except for maybe the fact that Kanye loves Japanese music artists?
Oh, and the polite hip hop reminds me of this YouTube clip of a news piece on the "Hip Hop Grannies" -- elderly Chinese women who have won a lot of awards for their dancing. They don't understand the lyrics, they just like the music and the dancing.
And there's not-so-polite Chinese punk rock, too.
