    jiraya XD

  • @anime0loader stop it xD hahaha because of you i cant watch this video seriously thank you mate hahahahaha

  • @techytreckynerd awesome check this chic out she alright she needs a beat though

  • That's stupid, like saying all heavy metal bands are 'copying' LZ. Don't be ridiculous

  • I still love my culture and the music that comes with it. I believe everyone should have a feel for what it's like to live in minorities and the feelings that people everyday have to endure.

  • Well I think that Hip Hop cam from Blacks but it was also influenced on cultures from all around the world. This is more of a universal feel and not just Black people are doing it which I believe indeed is no problem. There is no problem with other cultures learning about African-American culture. Black people should be glad that other cultures admire their feel for music that was influenced on minorities of areas. Such as myself I am African-American but I'm interested in Japanese culture.

  • check out the new music videome my boys did on my channel also i got heat beats if you a sick rapper i can send some over c or 2 leases with hooks 40 bucks sell up to 10,000 copies engineered and crafted to perfection!!!

  • Who's the guy at 1:09?

  • People who only learned about hip hop through the media and have been in a community of people who learned from the media as well don't really deserve to comment on what hip hop is or isn't. Usually it leads to "hip hop is a black thing". If someone has never been to the tristate before during the days, i'm sorry, but it wasn't just a black thing. It's like reading about the taj mahal, but never stepping foot there. You gotta be a native of one of the homelands of hip hop to know.

  • @itsvoogle jaja he does looklike jaja. nice

  • @ExNihiloJimmy and what you need is another dick fool, you're mad disrespectful, that shit was fucked up on both sides it was a pointless war

  • @hiphoplivs i be kidding my friend. i think japan is a beautiful country with a fine culture and astonishing ability to get things done. so chillax and i apologise. peace.

  • @ExNihiloJimmy word, didn't mean to jump on you like that but damn that's harsh 80,000+ people died with that one bomb and my great gramps. died in perl harbor but thats a story for another time ha

    but on a side note japan donates the most money to the US military than any other host country and japan is a very strategic placement for the US military.

  • defenitely wanna see this documentary...

  • Wicked man wicked.

  • the subtitles condense what they're saying too much

  • Technically ALL foreign hip hop is "copying" American hip hop, since hip hop was American to start with.

  • THEY DOPE,THEY MAY TAKEOVER THE GAME!!LOL!NAH BUT MUCH RESPECT TO JAPAN INC..HOLLA AT GFABTHEKING!!

  • I thought Black people created Hip Hop?

  • @breezwonder Why does it matter if black people did HipHop first? o_0" ...at least the japanese are interpreting it not as wrong as other people even though there aren't too much blacks in Japan since all of them are there of free will unlike in Amerika. Which is even more respectable since the Rap e.g. in Germany is fucked up even with an not too gay language - French sounds gay but there are lots of blacks so they still are able too keep it real. Same with japanese but without black people. xD

  • @abaex I c where you are coming from but it does matter alot. Black inventions and culture has been stolen by so many others from the beginning of time and its vital to keep my people informedthat Hip Hop is Black music/culture. No one is denying the later influence and contributions of other races but its still our music. Go to Canada and tell them Hockey is'nt their artform and they'll correct u quick. Tell Chinese Kung Fu is'nt their artform and they'll check u fast. This is'nt any different.

  • @breezwonder I think it doesn't matter too much since the origin in music is & will always be important to learn how to do it. So no one will forget. It's also important not to see it as the culture of these or those people since everything will become one worlds culture some day. HipHop is on the right way to become that. Like classical music already did. You can't say that classical stuff is just European since it's nearly done world wide & at least the instruments are black culture now too.

  • @abaex TO ME hip hop is a mixture of black and puerto rican STREET CULTURE which I'm drawing from my experience when I was growing up in the tristate area and not just what I read or saw on tv. Most people who have never lived in the tri state area don't get it, have a linear perception of the culture, and just credit african americans because they don't know about the large PR community that exists.

  • @breezwonder I take offense when people say hip hop is black music/culture or it came from black people alone, but exclude PR's either because they're just ignorant and have no idea about how large the community was (from the perspective of when I was growing up) in the tristate area. I personally think they helped give birth to hip hop and deserved to be mentioned when referencing the origins. I saw plenty of block parties (yes that's part of hip hop culture to me), bboys, and boming trains.

  • @BobbyDigital314 I take offense when other races try to say Hip Hop is not Black music/culture. Like Hip Hop, everything black people create, non blacks always call it something else to makle it sound "Multicultural" ie Hip Hop Black Music "Universal Music" Nigga "Black word ie "Slang word" Kool Herc and Africa Bambatta created Hip Hop in the south bronx in 1972 to give blacks voice in America. Before any Hispanic came, Hip Hop was Black. It matters alot know this cause people say they made it

  • @abaex I don't think the majority of us can sit here with certainty and say that hip hop came from black people. If you were living in the tristate area you would know that PR's played a big part in the development of HH before it blew up. AA's make up the majority of the music industry, but I moved and been around the tri state area enough to say that PR's highly likely helped give birth to hip hop.

  • @Bobby What's the meaning of PR and AA here? - Well what I see in HipHop are some elements which are the same in African music. (rhythm fixed, repeating for trance/smoking & importance of the word/lyrics) HipHop was possible through technology but Blues/Jazz/Funk was sampled for the beats. That music comes from black Americans which didn't have contact to white culture back then. The Last Poets might be the best example for African influence since they seem to be Rap-Pioneers.

  • @abaex PR is a common term referring to puerto ricans. AA (affrican americans) i made up to save space. Like most people, your too focused on the music. Hip hop is bboy'n, turntabilism, grafitti, mcing, and other outside elements (i.e. block parties as i mentioned before) that make up the culture. To me, most people are informed about hip hop through the media, but never lived or observed it during the early days in different parts of america.

  • Comment removed

  • @BobbyDigital314 Yes I'm totally fixed on the music and not the whole culture. I know some people can't separate the music from the subculture it came from but I think this is really important for the sake of music. In the Metal/HardRock-Scene it's like if you are Punk and start playing Metal it's all over a sudden something new just because people play it which originated from another subculture. Tons of unnecessary Genres are created like this and in my opinion it shouldn't go on like this.

  • @abaex I agree with that though about unnecessary genres being created. At least that's one of the reasons why I think hip hop couldn't be preserved and it just died.

  • @BobbyDigital314 might there be a good documentary somewhere about the kind of hiphop-cluture you are talking about?

  • @abaex Honestly I don't really know of any because I've watched a few documentaries in the past, but was about music and they all sucked for the most part so I stopped watching documentaries about hip hop. The only thing that I can give you that can help exemplify how I saw it developed was the movie Beat Street. It was like that for me where you live in a community of minorities (blacks, PR's, italians, hatians, and cubans majority being blacks and PR's). Things just develop in the community.

  • @abaex Well Wild Style seems to be a better example.

  • @BobbyDigital314 Thanks! I'll check those two movies out.^^

  • So all of you arguing you're pointless rants here: you better be a bboy, or an emcee, or do graff, or scratch turntables. Cuz you gotta experience the culture that you're talkin about, for your case to be valid. Not only that, but know the ins and outs of the culture. Not only ur own country, but how it started in the boogie down Bronx.

  • @TheGraffiteGhost In my opinion you sir are a idiot. I think that Hip Hop should be for everyone who is enjoying it. And by the way you sound like you're trying to get internet-props cause you're a bboy. But maybe I just don't understand what you're trying to say.

  • @esemdi90 lol..you really dont...basically im tryna say that ppl who dont excercise hip hop culture cant say what it is. like some of these ppl under me who dont bboy, dj, write, or mc. its for EVERYONE, but only the ppl who exercise the culture can say what it really is...ppl who arent active in the culture are only listeners.

  • @TheGraffiteGhost Okay I respect your opinion, but I think that a listener is just as active in the hip hop culture as a bboy, writer, dj or mc. cause the one thing that connects them all is the music.and listening to hip hop music is exercising the culture.

  • Only mc's, djs, bboys, and writers have a right to say what hip hop is. A man born in Africa can't claim to know true asian culture if he's never been to asia. Just like no one here has power behind their words, unless they're hip hop culture. I'm a bboy. I know what hip hop is cuz I do my history, and I practice a piece of the culture. Thus, I'm a legitimate part of hip hop. If all you do is comment on YouTube, you ain't hip hop.

  • Well spoken pimp, and B-BOYS are sick, I was a breaker/bobber but not we just keep it on th MIC! SR.RAMOS from NO GOOD THERAPY

  • @TheGraffiteGhost so, i don't have the right to say that hip-hop's amazing?

  • @shabapple you can. but you cant CLAIM to know what it is-like some ppl on Youtube, unless ur part of the culture.

  • @TheGraffiteGhost ah, i see what you mean. but i wonder, does it offend if i try to explain what the music and the culture is to somebody else who understands naught of it?

  • @shabapple Of course its gonna mean something else to someone who doesn't understand. Only until you become immersed in the culture, can you begin to fathom what the feeling truly is. An example of people who aren't hip hop, but think they know: Businessmen who marketed on bboying and ruined it in the past. So yes, hip hop can mean something different, but unless you're in the culture, I doubt it's the same feeling as being on the floor,writing on a wall, scratchin,or expressing ur mind on a mic

  • great beat

  • Sos chinos al mando con las nenas vaxilando

  • Check 4 , Beats by Wallace Green

  • Damn, that song in the background is tight

  • There is even a black debate about what hip hop actually is that's been going on for years so if you're black white asian alien whatever don't worry about who it belongs to, if it comes to you then it's you, you can't go get it though it comes to you. I'm black and living and Japan now and i seen some cats out here that are more hip hop than me. The problem for me is I see 99.99% copy cats though. Japenes copying beats tunes dance looks from everywhere. You can be Yoshi and hiphop it's ok.

  • Herbalist manual by jay chou.....fuk yeh.....

  • wow, this is surprisingly real!

  • lol looks sof funy

  • the history is that hiphop was a african culture that spread im not against any one else doing it but lets not deny where it came from i think its great that it exspanded to norway japan france korea sweeden and we can all agree on hiphop but it is a culture that came from africans and africanamerican trust me im from hiphop and i am a hiphop promoter and no matter if yall are black white asian are indian i am glad to call yall my brother from a hiphop mother peace and love yall

  • faggots here, hip hop is not a black thing, it was created in by the black brothers but it's a feeling. i feel it, so i play it. fuck you

  • Comment removed

  • Hip hop is global its not a race thing its a love thing so fuck you haters! If they rapping about what they know or what they're streets are like why are you player hating?

    Hip Hop is a fucking culture you ignorant racist bastards!

  • "hip hop should have street feeling...no bullshit real street feeling..." sage words!

  • you know i am very very tired of the stereotype of rap and black people. Why every time someone says rape a black person has to be the only on interested. Jeez humans have been living on this world for how long and still act so immature. 

  • Canadians are the richest people in the world.

    Beautiful place + water + air + big living spaces

  • How did I know this would turn in to a race deabte. HIP HOP IS A CULTURE AND STYLE OF MUSIC, NOT A DAMN RACE.

  • Yeah so did this happen...like this is a trailer so did it play? I'm in Japan now can I get it on DVD?

  • I knew hip hop and R&B is pretty big in Korea but I didn't think it would be big in Japan. I thought japanese were heavy into rock music. Plus we hear more about korean artists hear in the US like Bi and Boa (they're trying to cross over) and we don't hear anything about japanese artists.

  • what the fuck do these faggots have in street experience. they live in the most modern place on earth, where the crime rate is smaller than their penises. they talk shit about living streets. fucking jap bastards.

  • @Duer94 that's the most ignorant comment ever.

  • Comment removed

  • @GroundedForLifeBBOYS you say that it's "good" when this is SHIT

  • Look at Drake, no street experience but one of the biggest artist.

  • @Duer94

    I agree, Japan is one of the most advanced cultures on this earth

    They have no reason to "struggle" and the most "street" experience they have is missing the bus.

    Therefore I say all rap is bullshit..

    N if you think about if it, rap kinda like whining saying that your life sucks then you have to sing about it...learn from chinese they work their ass off for .02 cents an hour and DONT SAY SHIT ABOUT THAT!!!!! Everyone can learn from this.

    Whats there to say about rap now? exactly..

  • @maciasx010x oh and fucking rock is a difference. Here is a tip. There are more fucking emo bands out there bitching about how bad they life is and how bad people are treating them than they are people rapping about the "streets" lols what a stereotype ass hole. Go cut you self or something.

  • @P00nez

    exactly thats emo fucks, i dislike them as well, thats why its called EMO music and NOT rock

    real music is from the heart, learning to play an instrument like a guitar or drums and singing in tenor, corretone, bass, or coteno. and yes even emo bands have just a little bit more talent than rappers, so those fags still beat this shitty music.

    Whats so hard about speaking nursery rhymes into a Mic. while you already have a song made ak.a "beat". thats not music, thats bullshit

  • @maciasx010x by the way im not Emo i like heavy metal okay This includes, but not limited to: Metallica Disturbed Megadeth Black Sabbath Guns N' Roses Now those are real artists with REAL fucking talent okay?? learn something! rappers and emos are whiny babies even emos play instruments so they are still a little better... DJS use a sound board...they just hit a few buttons, and they think they have talent...theres no tuning a sound board like a guitar...you'd better remember that.
  • @maciasx010x real talent is when you have the ability to weave layers of sound and make something of it that not anyone else could ever have imagined. real talent is when you can make people feel something in their souls, connects them to a beat, to a riff, or to the lyrics. you've just gotta learn to respect that music clicks in different ways to different people.

  • @maciasx010x u also need to stfu we need to stop with all this bull crap it stupid as fuck and also everyone have there taste in music and my question is WHY THE FUCK R U EVEN HERE IF U DONT EVEN LIKE RAP?!?!?

  • @Duer94 how can you be so ignorant? you're only thinking about petty crime rates, the kinds of social problems the Japanese have are only categorically different from those wherever you live, so don't think they don't have problems and just put it down to race. also, modernity doesn't necessarily result in less problems or decreasing crime rates, modernity also comes with new forms of crime.

  • hip-hop is an african american culture, its just because it caught on that everybody does it, just like all music we make

  • @pkmelody3 this is another ignorant comment. you obviously follow mainstream media. original hip hop does not discriminate again color/race and anyone who knows true hip hop would know that.

  • @GroundedForLifeBBOYS Hip hop started as a way for opressed african americans to express their feelings, then later it became popular and record labels commericalized it, so it could reach a broader audience, if you knew about hip hop you would know that when it was conscious real hip hop it never even made it on the radio in the status, let alone on a worldwide scale.

  • What is with all these remarks toward black people. Leaving negative remarks toward black people or any race or nation is ignorant. This video has nothing to do with blacks anyways so chill.

  • Blacks should have never existed, not on earth newayz, they ruin everything

  • @maciasx010x people like you ruin everything that is good

  • @GroundedForLifeBBOYS

    Depends on what you define as GOOD,

    everyone has their own Opinion you know.

  • @GroundedForLifeBBOYS

    I think people like you should never exist.

  • @Magma541

    That makes two of us

  • New Japanese Rapper S.H.O. new music video, Even If It Ends featuring Az One. Let us know what you think? Just go to our page. Thanks :)

  • To all you that say hip hop (which I despise) is a black culture, sure they started it ( I guess) then Baseball and other sports are white culture. The first black in MLB was 1947, before that it was all white since the late 1800's

  • @DirtyMexiratSmasher yah point is if afro caribbean were not involed then there would not be any hip-hop point blank!!!

  • does this whole documentary come with english subtitles?

  • japanese hiphop was cool !!!

  • hip hop is not a race its a style of music. i personally like classical hip hop mix, like the nujabes or someone rapping with the flying lotus beats becuse it has a nice flo and the rap has more meaning. those songs are made by all thnicities, all people who convey feelings through a story in rap form. except like those random rap songs from people like soulja boy or somethin.

  • Hip-Hop worldwide spread the love and not the hate!

    Support Independent music and keep the scene alive!

  • its about lifestyle. Selling drugs, getting shot while your own mum is hustlin, which none of these japanese can associate with. The most dangerous thing they did was selling porn magz to kids next door and getting fingered up your ass by your classmate. okay maybe the hustlin mum is an exception.

  • @lavera wtf nigga selling porn magazines niga fuck u and your little fantasy world where that shit is true ever heard of the fcking yakuza trust me those fcker dont sell no fcking porn magazines you fcking ignorant bastard the fcking japanese have one of the greatest historical background in hte fcking world u goin to say shit like that just keep ur fcking mouth shut bout any fcking race unless you know your 100% right about that

  • @themonkwithin Having great historical background? how does that prove they can hiphop? This is why people with weak brain should think twice before posting commnets on youtube. You're embarrassing yourself. Japan started a war with asia and west coz they thought they were gods. We all know how that ended. Greatest history? not really.. and Yakuza DO sell porn, run porn shops and brothels. You're quite naive to think they dont.

  • What up hommies ! Come 2 check my stuff, I'll be glad 2 know Ya mindz, if you like please rate!PEACE!

  • even japanese are dope!!!! yeah!!!

  • rofl ive got to come up with my own words and not copy americans xD win

  • *documentaries

  • "Welcome to Sky High" Sky High Pt. 2 The Overdose Coming soon!! WE GO HARD!!!

  • Sometimes I see them decked OUT like they got a playlist from a music videos on what HIP HOP looks like. I dont blame them, TV is shallow. And it influences. And we could say vice versa for alot of my own culture in America. But stop comparing the size of your Fitted with mine, or the size of the rock in you ear with mine. Dont be so shocked I dont say NIGGA on purpose every 5 seconds..and that i might wear regular casual clothing

  • I am in Japan right now, Okinawa. My boyfriend is Okinawan. I love him to death, we been together 3 years. Prolly gonna marry him. Love it all. I got high tolerance for diffrerences. If Japan wants to use Hip Hop as a message vessel, coo with me. BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hip-Hop should be used to come together. I dont wanna see another "Sista-K" or "B-Boy" comparing themselves to the gawdy scene or shallowed representation of hip-hop that they see on the videos today...

  • Point Blank.....Hip-Hop was created by a bunch of pieces that happened to come together and function. It was created to make a message and be heard. Okay, so it seems we have been heard and others are internalizing what we had to say. For example, Nippon Hop or whatever its called. Thats cool, im honored by it. And as a person with an Anthropology background I have to check my own biases and I do have a high tolerance for other cultures. I love other cultures! And I am African American....

  • Hip hop is a cultural movement that derived from New York by African American communities.

    The core beginning of hip hop was the Disc Jockeys looping breaks and sampling rhythms from other music, or you could say "copy". But the whole point is taking something else and putting your own interpretation of music/words. I think it's beautiful that it is universal now and it's "interpreted" in almost all languages. That's what hip hop is all about.

    There is absolutely nothing wrong with J-Hop!

  • Comment removed

  • I just say Cool!!

  • japanese always interest west culture, but there's no fuckin word "not copy americans", they just copied it and change the version.

  • The guy said "If I'm going to express myself, I must use my own words/language because I can't repeat how American's do it, that's not what "my hip hop" is all about."

    Yeah, the Japanese are interested in not only west but all cultures. No, we don't just copy things and change the version. We get inspired by different things and we make it our own unique style, often in formal/intelligent Japanese language.

    American culture comes from Europe, so what you're saying is contradictory.

  • @jamiejieiuchima If you're only considering European- Americans and their cultural practices "American"- ok whatever. But Native Americans, Latinos (Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, Cubans, etc), African Americans, and so on... Culturally we're very different from Bob and Mary Smith. We have our own languages/ dialects, our own foods, our own holidays, our own dances- shit our own flava! Please invest some time and learn a little more about 'American" cultures- the US is not a homogeneous heap.

  • where can I watch/get this?

  • *0* que dijo ??? -_0

  • noO it was americans poverty population in the bronx new york that started it. whether it was blacks,puerto ricans or whites we have a beautiful culture! :]

  • @runway2007 not blacks we prefer browns and we created rap u should look it up

  • Interesting.....

  • Also i like the JP Hip Hop sound, they make at they own way also the JP lyrics are too good! Keep It Up!

  • africans created hip hop japanese are good djs and scratchers and break dancers

  • SEE what happens when a black male loses his mind in america in my video I DONT GIVE A FUCK, COOL VIDEO

  • it just so happens that in Cuba (caribbean island) a form of freestyle battling developed by country folk or guajiros (Cuban rednecks) has been around since like the 1920s

  • estamos tontooos? te crees ke la cultura del rap viene de los africanos?

    madre mia..

    FUCK YOU!

    ...

  • Viene de jamaica oficilamente, wiki pedia :) Good luck :)

  • all this really is is just noise. vibration is a symbol. Weither it be hip hop, classical, rap, jazz, flute, rock. origin doesn't matter. every color of race has found a way to express there feelings through vibration. if japan wants to have their own version of hip hop then so be it some of their shit is hot, just my opinion.

  • wow!

    Hard life in Japan!

    Peace niggas!

    assholes

  • its not about where your from kid

  • are you fucking stupid?

  • Anybody know where I can download the full version of this at? I need it for a research paper I'm doing on Hip Hop.

  • your username is lame

  • so is your dirty flip-ass face

  • mrluv...? hahahahaha what a lame virgin name

  • i like this video

  • wow

  • Anyone know the artist/song playing in the background and throughout the video? I've been trying to find out for a while.

  • Check out *the gang- kick n snare* trust me..

  • undisputed, ur just clowning, right?

  • i understand where your coming from xxxxxundisputedxxxxx, however, you- like many people- forget that japanese had a very tough culture as well. they're samurai code was one that people still admire to this day. In the days after the samurai, post-edo, in ww2, americans regarded them as "savages". they aren't softies. they hold their educations high, but they are- by all means- NOT held subject to JUST that. research your stereotypes man

  • asian stereotypes like that only exist in america which the asians in america hate it and make videos about it in YT..

  • fuck you. hip hop is not an africanamerican culture. its a streetculture.

  • but you have to admit blacks started it.

  • have i ever stated something else? so what if black people started it. so what if it was white people that started it. lets not focus on skincolour. i thought that hip hop was anti-racist

  • @Angloth

    It is, but you should recognize which culture cultivated HipHop...do disrespect this fact is to disrespect HipHop...maybe you just don't like that Black people began HipHop.

    Face it and move on.
