Asian Hip Hop Times
 

Gerry Scopez has just leaked Catch The RedEye from his upcoming RedEye Sessions project.  The production is tight, but I'm not so sure about the rapping and singing in this one.

Emmalyn - My My My Feat. Spot & Ess MV

Just released.  Emmalyn Estrada featuring Spot & Ess in their Motown-inspired track entitled My My My.  Another solid track from Spot & Ess.  These boys are a real good look for Vancouver hip hop.

Spot & Ess - Smile Through The Madness

Here's a new track from Spot & Ess (formerly known as D-City) called Smile Through The Maddness.  The beat, produced by Ess, makes me feel like doing evil shit....lol.

Edison Chen - Salute

Edison Chen is back with another music video called Salute.  Yes, he still has a funny accent when speaking Chinese but at the same time his rap flow is getting better and better.  The hook is wack as fuck though.  It doesn't flow at all and it sounds kinda "chinky". 

Looks like MC Hotdog is now a ghostwriter for Edison, heh heh.

Verbal Jint Feat. G.NA - 약속해 약속해 (Promise Promise)
Looks like she's about to eat that mic...

Korean underground emcee Verbal Jint is out with a new cutesy lovey-dovey music video with G.Na called 약속해 약속해 (Promise Promise).  The song is off Verbal Jint's EP go simple 0.5  that dropped earlier this month. 

And hey, what do you know?  G.Na is also from Vancouver (Surrey, BC to be exact). Will add her to the Vancouver diaspora list.

The Scale Breakers - Small Town Talent

Guy Woods and Subway from The Scale Breakers put their hometowns of Sooke, BC and Brooks, AB on the map in this song Small Town Talent.  This is remixed version by Stuey Kubrick who also did the visuals for the music video.  I thought at first this would be a wigger-type song, but this is a pretty stand up song with substance.  Took me by surprise.  It gets a thumbs up from me.

Edison Chen - Man In The Mirror

This is Edison Chen's new introspective music video. Man In The Mirror, produced by French producer Busy P from Ed Banger.  Sounds like Edison is rapping over some Depeche Mode ish.  It's cool of him to try something new even though his rap flow in Chinese really blows.

Global Syndicate - Lost

Lost is by Vancouver hip hop group Global Syndicate featuring Zane Gold on the hook.  The music video really captures the "coldness" of life in Vancouver.
