fuchikoma Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 West-coast Canadian non-gangsta rap. There seems to be a decent sized scene of talented rappers in that area. Actually, last time they played a show in my city, they had known gang members standing on stage with them, and according to the news paper, gang members in the crowd trying to recruit people. That's a massive disappointment... I haven't kept up much since about 2003. At least I've never heard them rap about their gangs, shooting cops, the usual tropes. The closest I've heard was the odd drug song here or there. Were you at the Prince George show? It seems they've disavowed the gang members, though I didn't know about the personal connection to HAs. Those guys are generally scum... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturnine Tenshi Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 I couldn't make out the kanji, fuchikoma. \ : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those guys are generally scum... No, but that was the show in question. It was all over town, newspapers, apparently the police were investigating (I can't guarantee that, my memory is foggy). We can give them the benefit of the doubt, maybe they didn't know the gang members. I'm not really a rap guy but I remember liking a few of their singles back in their hey-day.

fuchikoma Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 (edited) I couldn't make out the kanji, fuchikoma. \ : Which? The title is Hangul - and I can't really make it out either. "sa(illegible) annyeong" It doesn't even look like it's written with real jamo... I can't even guess what it's supposed to say. "사N(backwards ㄱ)ㅇ'W 안녕" Also, that Rubberbandits video was hilarious... I'm checking them out now. Edited December 29, 2011 by fuchikoma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturnine Tenshi Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 I meant the video you responded to. 榛名に行ってみた The kanji there. They're common, and I knew them at one point maybe 1-2 years ago. Can't recall what they are anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuchikoma Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 Ohh... got it. You'd posted since then, so I thought it wasn't that one. TBH I never knew the first kanji. I just cheated when the start said 「はるなへ行こう！」 and I went "oh hey, it's Haruna!" I figured with the clips you post, you could tell Hangul from kanji, but then I looked at the title and it was so messy, I sure couldn't make much of it either, heh. It may as well have been Hanja. Hey... I'm failing to post music in the music thread! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterDex Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) An acquaintance of mine just posted this video on his facebook page. He's pretty good, I can see a record deal in his future: He has other stuff up on Youtube as well if you like what you hear.

fuchikoma Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Loved these guys ever since they started to catch in the mid 90s. It was a big part of my soundtrack in high school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
