What are some good Japanese Hiphop artist?

Question

Sorry to bother you with this. ):

I've recently become interested in Japanese hiphop and i was wonder what other artist are out there. I know Groups like SBK, MIHO, and my favorite, Wyolica. (I think Azumi's voice is so cute!)

Please don't give me obvious artist like Ayumi, or Utada, which i hardly think are hiphop and are more pop if you ask me.

Thank you so much guys!

:D

Thank you!

Answer 7

Do you know Namie Amuro? It's true that in previous years her music was more reminiscent of artists like Utada Hikaru and Ayumi, but her last two albums Queen of Hip-Hop and Play have much strongers ties to R&B and hip-hop.

I especially like her song "Baby Don't Cry."

A great group that you can check out is the Teriyaki Boyz. Their lyrics are in both English and Japanese, but hey, that's how most Japanese music is nowadays.

Anyways I hope this helps.
