Bushido - "forever young" shot on Red

[Petr Dvorak]

...For all who dont know him in the US, he is as big as Eminem in the states.

thats funny, really never heard of him till now

 

[Tom Lowe]

funny thing that, I find a music video here to a popular American song, (well done and beautifully sang by the way. I love to hear the human voice in a language I don't fully understand. It gives me chance to appreciate the vocal quality of the voice as an instrument rather than the artist as a poet).

Only after my lingual skills are stretched and that part of my brain is once again active do I find Tom here blasting and wondering about the shooting of "ching ching." Ching ching is the Japanese word for pen1s

Only on reduser

I found it funny who knows maybe you will to.

hehe... I do think about this sometimes.

When I was living in China, I had a Canadian friend who turned me on to some awesome French rap. When you can't understand the language, you realize how important the voice is.

I will always remember one night driving through the glittering streets of Guangzuo, China in a car packed with one American, one French-Canadian, a German with dreadlocks, and a couple of Chinese people, blasting French "gangsta rap" as we cruised through streets crowded with thousands of rickety bicycle taxis and Chinese people on motor scooters... I thought, "The world is definitely becoming a smaller place!"

I can only understand bits of what Bushido is saying, but what we don't often realize is how important a great voice is in rap. I mean, 90% of today's rap is full of stupid platitudes about "making a grip" and "fucking hoes" and beefing with rivals and all of that mindless crap. But the voice itself is really important, just like with any other forum of music.
