can anyone recommend any cuz i know theres a few tho theyre all indie

not krn rappers as in guys like drunken tiger, but rappers who happen to be krn who make and do their music in the US

why not just listen to non-korean artists , then ?

there aren't any mainstream korean rappers in the states if that's what you're after .

ya.

just listen to eminem.

har har.

i like some of his stuff;

just steer clear of his most recent stuff.

crap.

Far East Movement (two are Korean)

Snacky Chan

theres nothing wrong with showing some love to asian rappers who's main language is english. but yes, no real mainstream asian rappers.

Snacky Chan, he's aight
didn't know any of FEM were Korean but yeah, you can listen to them

there're more Vietnamese-American rappers I can think of, actually. the most mainstream Asian-American rapper is Jin the Emcee, and he's Cantonese-speaking Chinese.

Shogunna

look up on myspace.

none of these people are mainstream , though . apart from jin , and he's chinese like the poster said .

Jin is pretty good. He won rapping in BET.
Check these out...

yeah, Jin is good, but he's not Korean. he has two albums, one as Jin and one as Jin the Emcee. The Emcee's Proper?ganda is a decent album. check it out. he was the champion of that BET thing like 8 times in a row, there's some international freestyle contest he won this year for the fifth time, and his video for Learn Chinese was the first music video played on MTVChi. i actually heard Learn Chinese on the radio once...really late at night, on a less popular station...oh yeah, he collabed with Japanese rapstar Sphere of Influence on a track called Yo Yo Ma, and he raps in both English and Cantonese on that track. he's better at rapping in canto than most of the sh.t rappers out of Hong Kong--i actually enjoy listening to his canto rap without having to get used to it first.

Shin-B

shes good

Far East Movement is awesome. you can check out some of their music here
http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea...iendID=51213472

they are awesome guys too. i met them last year when they performed at my school.

Cool Calm Pete. Good stuff, but I don't know if he's well known or not

please tell me he didn't say "i wanna bend you over and show you my shoes 'cause i'm fresh" !? O_O;

now i remember why i don't listen to this genre .

meanwhile though , all these kids are indie

shin-b!!!
she's cool
i saw her on the azntv lol =DD
there is no mainstream korean rapper.
you should listen to Am Kidd not korean but really nicee bay area music

lol.. dont dismiss an entire genre over one example. he makes thug music; its just his particular swagger. if you find it offensive then peep snacky chan; "apologies" and "lonely road" are great songs from him with some respectable lyrical content in them.. i listen to isiah/sk strictly for his insane flow

oh i didn't mean that it was offensive . just that it was crap .

don't worry , i dismissed this genre long ago . this just reinforces it .

Snacky Chan and R.O.O.K: Chanhiphop.com

And tha Hungry Hooligans (all three of dem are korean)

hungryhooligans.com

haha thanks guys
i didnt really mind if they werent mainstream

i found a guy on my own though some of the recommendations here were good
i thot LyRicks was decent, though he has a different spin on things... i like that lol

oh i think Eitkid ish HOT!
