there's alotta dj's & producers:

dj honda
dj neil armstrong (dope mixtapes + jay z's tour dj)
automator (dude has crazy credentials....was black rob's producer before he had a deal, the ug classics, and he even did freestyle music before that)
chairman mao (the source, ego trip)
dj muro (ditc)

not a fan, but the japanese dude that produces chief keef's stuff is big right now

as far as rappers, there haven't been any asian rakims or anything but theres been some talent:

cool calm pete was an underrated nyc rapper, dumbfoundead, the mountain bros were a chinese group from philly- chops went on to produce stuff for bun b, young jeezy, etc
8 off agallah is a half breed



lets be real though, outside of blacks, only a few puerto ricans, dominicans, and a couple of whites have been good rappers

no one really wants to hear asians, arabs, indians, mexicans, and h0nkies on the mic

da fukk are you talking about?

breh... roughly 95% of Asians in the U.S. today aren't descended from those people.

That's like attributing Jim Crow, Slavery etc. to the histories of Nigerian, Ghanian & Ethiopian immigrants :comeon:

As mentioned earlier in the thread, Cool Calm Pete and Dumbfoundead are really nice. Plus Ruby Ibarra is very talented. There have been threads on the coli about her including one saying, "This chick is hip hop." If you guys use Pandora, many of the good instrumentals you listen to come from Asia (with a lot coming out of Europe too).
