Who is your favorite Korean hip hop artist?
« on: November 26, 2021, 11:05:55 am »
Pretty much all I listen to is hip hop. I listen to a ton of old lil Wayne, old TI, etc etc.
Since being here, I have found a few good Korean rap artists, but looking to find some more.
Who are some of your favorite Korean rap artists?  :smiley: I have finally started watching SMTM, so my interest has peaked.

No wrong answers, people can like whoever they like. No judgement lmao.

EDIT: Korean hip hop?

I dunno.

But the thread title and first sentence had me posting about hip hop in general.

I have heard some good Korean hip hop in stores. Dunno the names. Liked the sound.

Help others, especially animals. Say what you think, be considerate of others. Appreciate more than deprecate. Teach well, jump on teachable moments. Enjoy Korea as it is, without changing it. Dwell! Yet, at times, change your life for the better. "The most important [thing] is to have a good day."

Just out of curiosity,
What do Koreans guys rap about?
American rap music tends to be about gangs, getting shot, retaliation by gangs, murder, pigs(police), bitches and hoes.
A lot of these things are issues Koreans wouldn't deal with or have first knowledge of.
So what to Korean guys rap about?

Me, too actually.  The stores and the gym are the places I tend to hear it most.  Both EMart and HomePlus play a hip hop number I dig called " H-A-C-C-P."

Anything and everything. From yes, a lot of trash rap of people pretending to be the hardest person alive. But also things such as social issues, religion, motivation, even Korean history such as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdW8o1JWjcI Pretty much everything, just depends on the artist.
