[edit] Stub

An interesting article discussing the origins of Japanese hip hop, particularly the aspects most closely related to rap, to foreign hip hop, to specific rappers and clubs at which the movement originated. But most Japanese hip hop today has little direct connection to that. This article would benefit greatly from a discussion of the diversity and breadth of the genre, and a list (not too out of control) of some of the more major hip hop artists in Japan.

A portion of this article seems to be copied and pasted right from Ian Condry's web site. Overall, the style is inconsistent and at times ungrammatical and filled with misspellings, and the article is extremely repetitive. It doesn't cover contemporary hip-hop in any substantial way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.206.58.110 (talk) 13:19, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
