doumeizhen Posted March 20, 2007 at 11:49 PM Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 at 11:49 PM Randall-- I am not saying you should do this, but sometimes, on some websites with mp3s, you can right click on the link and select 'save link location as', and then (I assume it goes through a process whereby a legal forms are signed and all dues paid) it shows up on your computer. As for recommendations, you should check out Machi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defjef Posted March 21, 2007 at 02:57 AM Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 at 02:57 AM hey yall we made it so you can download it. just right click and dl away. we want to make the first album completely free and get people involved in the culture. i host a radio show in beijing on 88.7 and 88.5 in Guangzhou on the weekends from 6-8 pm. We play the best hip hop from the states from underground to pop. we also try to support the local hip hop so if you have a chance in any of those cities have a listen this weekend. we are also trying to syndicate to other cities. where are you guys at? basically we are trying to push hip hop in china in the "right" direction. i am not a gangster and have never been one so you wont hear me rap about that. hahaha. anyways i am glad you all like it. the best form of a compliment is telling other people about what we are trying to do. its the hip hop movement yall! thanks for the love defjef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poleag Posted May 18, 2012 at 03:40 PM Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 at 03:40 PM These two are by an artist called 蛋堡 aka Soft Lipa 雨没停过 遇见 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poleag Posted May 18, 2012 at 04:31 PM Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 at 04:31 PM 雨没停过 遇见 Sorry for not explaining it. There are two great things about Soft Ripa. 1) He raps in very comprehensible, 99% putonghua, unlike Jay Chou/JIn or other artists who use a lot of English or other Chinese dialects. 2) Most of his tracks have a laid back, jazzy sound Starting with Wikipedia and looking up music by the artists listed under Chinese Hip Hop had me sifting through a lot of awful stuff. Searching Chinese-forums came up with a lot of threads where people who aren't really into hip-hop tried to be helpful by posting links to "famous" hip-hop that they had just Googled (or Baidu'd) a few minutes beforehand (that or really general links/people trying to promote stuff). So the point of the thread was really just to say "1) I'm a hip hop fan and a Chinese student, 2) I've listened to these two specific tracks, and 3) I think they are worth listening to.
