[Teh]

Was on holiday and i heard a bunch of really awesome italian and french rap in the clubs and bars and such, and since none of my mates are into that malarky i thought i'd ask here, yo.

So please, recommend away. Danke.

[Miho Mingu]

i haven't heard very much italian rap, but look into the french rap group, les sages poetes. if you want, i can send you some tracks on instant message.

there are a couple of decent French compilations called Le Flow - also I really liked the 'World According to RZA' which has a really good mix of different European stuff.

[Forks]

I know all French rap. I know some Italian, but not much of the newest shit.

I am not on my actual PC right now, so I can't really look at what I have, but I just used some online list to pick out some of the artists that I know. Some is not really 'club' music, and it's quite hardcore or whatever, and much is old school French hip-hop.

MC Solar is the best non-English language MC. He's French.

PS
Hey Teh, how's things?

[trailerprincess]

Does anyone like any German stuff? I really like Xavier Naidoo and the stuff he has done with Von Sohnes Mannheim.

No, he's not. He was nice back in the day, but he is quite commercial and kinda average now. You only know him because your French teacher at school probably brought one of the CDs in.

Vielen Dank Herr (?) Forks.

I have to agree with you on the MC Solaar stuff. He sounds quite dated when you compare it to the likes of Saian and Passi etc

Shut up retard. Why the fuck would I learn French at school? It's the gayest language ever. I like MC Solaar because he is the best non-English language MC. He's like the French Guru.

I told you, he is not the best foreign rapper, he's not even best French rapper. If you knew anything about foreign rap, you'd know this. Go back to listening to Lady Sovereign and The Streets.

Aaargh, I hate this guy. Germany's answer to R. Kelly. My ex-boss slept with his sister, who is said to be very "heavily built".
Advanced Chemistry (Torch and Toni-L) is my fave german hip hop act.

hahahaha! really? I had no idea. I mean, some of it sounds quite cheesy but as my german is not fluent, I couldn't say for sure what he is warbling on about. Oh well, I'll add that to my list of bad music tastes

I like the german R Kelly

[Otis Driftwood]

:D Ja, he's real close to god, you know. Talks to him every 5 minutes...

[trailerprincess]

Man, between him and my mother, God must have no time for anything else!

[Teh]

Cheers for the suggestions all. I think i''l check out the czech rap also so thanks for postin that up too.

An things are good padster, hows about you?

[The Padster]

Shut up you mug. Lady Sovereign is pure shite and everybody knows Mike Skinner is one of the greatest lyricists of recent years. So whatever you were getting at, you look like a tosser. Like I said, I don't speak French so why would I waste my time listening to all that bollocks you were on about? All I know is MC Solaar is the best non-English speaking MC I've ever heard, and no amount of your elitist "if you knew anything" bullshit is going to convince me otherwise.

I'm cool, where the fuck you been man?
