I first thought this said "Swahili Hiphop" and was like Oh crap! Someone else likes Kalamashaka!

[Eastside Revolt]

Yeah, it trips me out because they have no accent.

[Iron Star]

swedish hip hop? that must sound pretty sweet.

[Inti]

Yes, Looptroop is Swedish and yes Hip hop in Swedish is pretty cool. (I know, I´m swedish)
But the coolest swedish hip hop music is in swedish, we dont have much in english, part from Looptroop..
Other swedish groups that are really good:
Timbuktu
Advance Patrol
Fattaru
Lilleman
Ken
.....

and there is much more... :D

[Eastside Revolt]

What about that Petter dude is he swedish?

[Dhul Fiqar]

Petter is Swedish, but pretty commercial.

Inti: Loop Troop have plenty of cool songs in Swedish, "Jag Sköt Palme" is one of my favorite songs of theirs :)

"Jah sköt Palme, nu er jag ute efter Persson!!" - BEST LINE EVER :)

--- G.

p.s. for everyone that doesn't speak Swedish, it means: "I shot Palme, now I'm coming after Persson!" - and refers to the fact that Olof Palme the Prime Minister of Sweden was killed some years ago and they never found out who did it, and the PM when they wrote that song was called Persson, not sure if he's still in power.

[Eastside Revolt]

Yeah, I have that song, what does that line mean?

[Inti]

Well this looptroop song actually is a cover from the group Nonphixion who made the song I shot reagan..

And yeah, petter is commercial.. but swedish
I could go on and on on swedish hip hop...

MBMA (Mobbade Barn Med Automatvapen)
Fjärde Världen
Are good too

[Inti]

Oh.. the line means I shot Palme (ex prime minister)
