Mexican Rap

[Captain Sensible]

Just discovered theres such a genre and I really like it-no idea what the **** they are talking about but it sounds cool.

Can anyone suggest a few names I could follow up on because I know nothing about this.

Molotov - Here Comes The Mayo

It's from the soundtrack to "Y Tu Mama Tambien"

Have a listen

A lot of good hispanic rappers.

Chino XL and AZ are my personal favourite,s but they use english and latin in their rhymes, so you MIGHT be able to understand them. Cuban Link and Big Pun are both good too.

Also a big fan of ozomatli, who aren't strictly hiphop only.

Thanks RJ. Exactly what I was looking for.

There's a huge Latino rap scene in Adelaide apparently.

My cousin seems to end up at these parties all the time where all these latinos are doing their thang and he says it's the craziest thing out.

Black Eyed Peas were at one he went to (during their tour).

The tool went up to Will I Am and said "Will I Am, you should call yourself William!"

Cheeky boy!

Like a Sublime member says in the 'I dont care too much for reggae dub" off Robbin' the Hood. "I even like a little mexican music. Don't understand the **** they're sayin', don't understand nuthin', but I like it."

The saddest thing about the peas was that they used to be one of the best Hiphop groups going around.

Just like me. No idea what there on about but it sounds so cool.


It's good for my eight year old too. He can listen to music with me without me having to censor it.

A good hispanic song by Cypress Hill is the spanish version of "How I could just kill a man".

As well as "Popozao"
