Dalam beberapa tahun terakhir, semakin banyak artis Asia yang terjun ke dalam kancah hip hop, sebagian besar berkat 88rising—sebuah perusahaan multimedia yang khusus merekrut dan mengembangkan talenta-talenta Asia.
Pendiri Sean Miyashiro telah membantu artis macam Joji, Higher Brothers, dan Rich Brian (dulu Rich Chigga) meraup jutaan penggemar dan views di YouTube, tempat mereka rajin mengunggah video musik. Tapi bahkan seiring popularitas mereka meningkat, banyak pihak dari komunitas hip-hop mempermasalahkan lirik yang mereka tulis—memunculkan pertanyaan tentang batas antara ekspresi diri dengan apropriasi budaya.
Dalam episode ‘MINORITY REPORTS’ kali ini, reporter VICE Lee Adams bertemu dengan Miyashiro dan beberapa rapper Asia ternama—di antaranya $tupid Young, seorang anggota geng Crip yang tidak punya afiliasi dengan 88rising—untuk mendengar kenapa mereka memilih hip hop dan tantangan apa yang mereka hadapi ketika berusaha menciptakan ruang sebagai anggota minoritas terbaru hip hop.
Lee juga berbicara dengan Ebro Darded—seorang pembawa acara radio pagi Hot 97 dan kepala editor hip-hop dan R&B Apple Music global—untuk mendengar opininya tentang pergerakan hip-hop Asia, dan membahas perbedaan antara berkontribusi ke kultur dan menyalahgunakan nilai-nilai budaya tersebut.

Every nationalities that isn't blakk love saying Ninja… It's make them feel like im a real street dude like criminal blakk folks… It stupid, but it will always be that way… Plus other ethnic groups that aren't blakk been calling each other ninja since the 80's
whats the song in the background while p-nice was talking at 11:23
18:38 – there is no universal pass. that same thought process does not give you the right to tell him what he can or cannot say.
What is the song called in the studio at 15:30, was it ever released ?
Yooo, Stupid Young is a Crip living like a Crip, his bros dead on those sht gang wars in the hood, he's been living like that since he was born cos his pa was a gangster himself. He ain't lying like his lyrics are real. That's street hip hop. Rich Brian is heavily marketed by pro management team to enter hip hop industry to be look like street hip hop artist, naaah they are more like festival artists. But Brian's team understand, Asian voice in hip hop need to be representated 🙂
What song 15:30
black parents use the N word all the time in family situations lol. this DJ crazy.
People who think the N-word is racist had never grown up in the hood. I grew up in Westside LBC and the N-word is used as a term for Homie. Because of SoyBoys who think they know the culture poison that word and it is racist to say it now.
Filipino rap legend fancis m tell the world of hip-hop is big all are included
"Mundo ng hip-hop ay malaki lahat ay kasya"
Where does Tim delaghetto talk about stupid young ?
Nigga I'm from Long beach, the city where the crips at. Kill a bird then we flipped at.
I feel music, art, fashion they have all inter mingled off of all that was bad in the world from wars to segregations to colonizers and it brought out this respect and unbiased platform of love, acceptance and freedom we share and feed off, so to say; “you’re doing this this is ours” and “you can’t do this” is taking us back to the same damn world we evolved off of. So to whomever it may concern, if you not accepting…you just an unevolved mindset that never saw the solution and always focused on bringing ulterior motives.
I DONT LIKE THIS HOST LEE ADAMS, HE A HATER ON ASIANS, I SENSE JEALOUSY AND ENVY , F*#K HIM ASKING STUPID QUESTIONS.
Every culture that uses our resources to get rich hate our black men our black kids our black women I love all humanity dead ass serious because I know it’s not flesh that we fight against but other worldly beings that. My point I’m making it’s amazing how they take our little culture of what we have and exploit what we have but their people hate us

emg ga dipungkiri, skrg lebih enak denger hip hop asia terutama yg korea atau asian america. jarang mumble, pengucapan yg jelas jadi org luar kyk kita yg gak biasa bahasa inggris juga bisa ngucapin. dan buat mumble sih emg pasarnya beda aja karena di amerika sana mumble lebih populer karena lebih fokus ke autotune dan musik. contoh aja lagu future mask off. itu lagi hits banget karena iringan instrumental nya yg enak banget
