Ever been curious about underground Korean hip hop? Or, if you're already a K-hip hop head, ever wonder what Americans think of some of your favorite talented rappers? Internet show 'LEStreet' takes to the streets to answer your questions, sharing K-hip hop with Americans in Los Angeles and interviewing them on what they think.๏ฟฝ

In the clip shown above, host Joe Stallworth states, "The thing about music is that you don't have to understand language to get the feel of it," and it seems that most people he interviews agree.


As Stallington shows his American participants B-Free, E-Sens, and Paloalto, many even compare the three K-hip hop artists to American stars like Drake and Big Sean. When asked if they believed these K-hip hop artists could make it in the states, most people say yes, as long as they mix more English into their songs. They can't decipher the lyrics but the feel is definitely there.


Check out the three tracks Stallworth shared with his participants below and let us know what you think! My personal favorite is Paloalto's "Good Times" because of those beats and the beautiful skyline of Busan, South Korea.


B-Free's "Hot Summer"
E-Sens' "Back in Time"
Paloalto's "Good Times"
