Foreign music

Discussion in 'Music genres, Bands and Artists' started by JesusGreen, Apr 22, 2010.

  1. I know quite a few people who listen to rap music that isn't in their natural spoken language and they often prefer it to listening in English or whatever language it is they speak best. I personally listen to a fair bit of Polish rap, since I can both understand it and also find it interesting to listen to still as I'm no master of the language.

    Here are a couple of songs I like (Both by stoner rappers):
    [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqzTignky58]YouTube - Hemp Gru - Droga (diil.tv HD)[/ame]
    [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gkxkf_KXu4]YouTube - A TY NIE! Bu, Grubson, Skorup MWK 2009[/ame]

    So, anyone else like foreign music, and if so, do you listen to music you can understand, or do you prefer languages you don't understand at all just for something "different"?

    Oh and post some songs you like :)

    I'll contribute to this thread...I like to listen to foreign hip hop sometimes because they have really dope beats & sometimes I like to think about what the song means in general and also on a personal level...if that makes sense.

    ...Hip Hop Is Universal...​
