yeah, dj krush has at least one, i think several japanese rappers on
'milight', track 3 sticks out for me. it's really interesting, it is
definitely worth a listen just for that (the disc is a great concept album
though, many great tracks and predictions on the future of hip hop). and if
you don't know japanese it's even better, you can pick out little phrases
like  'kon ban wa' and wonder as to their context ;)
