I was amazed when I looked at the translations of the lyrics some of Epik High's songs, they are so touching and I actually like the flow and sound rap has now!
I figured people who have already listened to Epik High and their style might know more artists like them
. So, you got any recommendations? I actually like almost ANY foreign music. So, as long as you think an artist/group sounds good, list 'em & I'll try 'em out. So, no matter what lang they rap in I don't care... BUT as much as I'm a gangsta, I'm not a gangstaaa~... so, it'd be great to recommend some artists that don't mainly focus on drugs and ho's lol
!!! I also liked the way they work turntables, so turntable masters would be cool recommendations too

Ah, I second this request!
I love hip-hop, but I really want some American artists or artists from other countries to listen to. Everything I listen to is Korean because either A) it's Epik High or someone ELSE who actually writes meaningful words or
they don't write meaningful words but it doesn't matter 'cos it's in Korean. XD;;
Korea has some of the best hip-hop IMO 'cos it's not all gangsta.
I need something different!
