i myself personally don't like hip-hop, r&b or rap much, maybe because it's played to death on the radio here (especially r&b) so it all sounds very mainstream to me. however as with any music genre it has the good, the bad and the fugly.
i think that not all hip-hop or rap is bad and violent. we have a local artiste here who has managed to blend hip-hop and traditional music pretty well. and it's actually pretty catchy and happy
the song is in kadazan (which is an indigenous race in borneo) and the dance you see in the background behind the hip-hop dancers is the traditional sumazau dance.
