YES! YES! AND YES!

I actually did a translation of this song recently. I'm working with a Japanese guy online to translate Japanese hip-hop lyrics. If you want me to post or send you the translation of this song I'll do it. Unfortunately, it's still only at the first draft stage, and I still need to go over it once or twice more.
I dunno. It's ok. Too poppy.

"Kick the can crew - Christmas Eve Rap

"

No thank you.

"Dear Japan - Seeda

"

The beat is too... intact. It sounds synthesized.

"Ill Wheels - Seeda feat. Bes

"

Not a fan of pop.

"Michibata - COMA-CHI

"

Man, it blows my mind every time I hear the Japanese version of an American artist. This woman reminds me of Queen Latifah. Also, Lamp Eye = Wu Tang, and Rino = Afu-Ra.

"99 Bars - COMA-CHI

"

There's a threshold that governs the discrepancies between the beat and the rhymes, and she goes a little too outside it for it to sound right, at least at the beginning. It sounds like a bad mashup. Also, a woman rhyming about how she's got "99 bars but a bitch ain't one" sounds a little ridiculous to me. Still, I'm gonna look up some of her albums.

"My way to the stage - Muro feat Kashi da Handsame

"

The beat is ass.

"And one my favortie "posse cuts", Golden Mic Remix - Zeebra, Ai, Kashi da Handsame, Hannya, Douji-T

"

Again, bad beat.
