Description of International Hip-Hop

A blanket term for the non-English speaking world's contribution to hip- hop, International hip-hop takes the basic tenets of hip-hop and adds a multicultural twist. Incorporating other genres including dance and Acid Jazz, French rapper MC Solaar and Japanese artist DJ Kensei infuse familiar hip-hop beats with other cultural flavors.
