J-HipHop song like Thank you from Home Made Kazoku and also something on an international Jazz/Rap CD and also 1-2 songs from samurai champloo

and i really like J-HipHop more than what we got here. The sound is less brutal, more refreshing and more pop IMHO.

so can anyone lead me to good bands?

thanks anyone Smile

M-Flo, M-Flo, aaaaaand M-Flo.Laughing Seriously, in my opinion they're the best J-hip-hop group around at the moment. As for others that I strongly recommend, SOUL'd OUT, and definitely check out more stuff from Orange Range, Dragon Ash are a really interesting combo of rock and hip-hop. The Heartsdales are a female duo that Verbal of M-Flo created. They have some nice numbers too and are great singers. And also check out the rest of the Samurai Champloo soundtrack as it's all hip-hop.

And it's not suprising that you enjoy hip-hop from Japan. It actually tends to be more upbeat and about positive subjects like love and friendship.

Rip Slyme is the only Japanese hip-hop group that I've heard and they're pretty good. A lot of people have probably heard of them since they did the theme for Gantz.

If you want more from rapper Shing02, here's his site:

Sharp like an edge of a samurai sword!

There's some free MP3s on there that are really great.

Also, check out ShakkaZombie. They're a great rap duo, too.
