except in australia where australian hiphop is far more popular because it talks about things that having meaning to people here, it is songs about us for us. like most arts, theatre, film, viz arts, sculpture, it is how communities look at themselves.

and most rappers in america are still trying to sound like it's 1994 so it's great when different countries present newer styles,although the majority of the rap audience will ignore anything anything non american so it's hard to influence the scene
