    Rap in different languages

    What languages have you heard rap music being sung in? Please post them, and if you know of the artist/group singing one of them, please do so too.

    I know of rap music being sung in

    *Swedish: "Petter"
    *French: "MC Solaar"
    *English: "Eminem"

    I would really like to hear some rap music in Chinese and in some African language

    I'm listening to a bit of German music right now. Sometimes it's a bit more ridiculous when you know enough German to understand it

    German Rap:

    Fanta4 ( Die Fantastischen Vier ): Last Album: "4:99"

    http://www.smudo.com/smudo/vier99.htm
    (Link has demo mp3's )

    Try searching for "Die Da" from the album "Vier gewinnt". When I was in school, this was the song that made them famous. Use a legal filesharing tool of your choice ( propably the one formerly from Holland because quite a few Germans are using it ) to get a legal copy of it. Don't forget to pay

    Xavier Naido was a rapper once, I guess he's doing a lot of balads now... disliked him anyway.

    "Fettes Brot" ( dumb name... fat bread ), "Absolute Beginner", "Curse"...

    "seeed" :music monks
    a really cool Reggae / HipHop combination
    hth
    -nv

    She was so Blonde, she spent 20 minutes looking at the orange juice can because it said "Concentrate."

    When in doubt, read the FAQ.
    Then ask a smart question.

    Belgium rap rocks.
    Heres a link to some songs from a rap group that lives in my street (i think they are pretty good). I especially like the song "Bedelen of bedelen".
    Depending of the intonation its a different word translated to english its called "to beg or to give" (well translation isnt very funny but when you understand Dutch its a well found thingy).
    Empedocles (the group im talking about)link: Bedelen of bedelen
    ,1-2 Stand
    These are free to download with permission of the group, there homepage is this

    My best friend is Indian/English, and a DJ, so I've heard lots and lots of Indian rap...he always hits me when I start giggling.
