Much like American rap groups, Japanese rap groups also sample. So for this post, I decided to revisit the Japanese rap group Scha Dara Parr (スチャダラパー), better known as “SDP,” as they kick it old school. They take Freedom’s 1979 disco funk song “Get Up and Dance” and basically do their own version of it.

Japanese Music: SDP – Disco System
July 25th, 2011 
AstroNerdBoy Scha Dara Parr (スチャダラパー), better known as “SDP,” is a Japanaese rap group that I stumbled into a few years ago while doing some research on what happened to electro-funk music in the U.S. (something I was very big into back in the early to mid-80’s). Unlike some of my recent Japanese rap music shares,
Japanese Music: Nitro Microphone Underground – NIGHT RAID-Tokyo State of Mind
July 11th, 2011 AstroNerdBoy OK, I know I shouldn’t, but I’m going back to the Japanese gansta rap group Nitro Microphone Underground well again. ^_^; This is another song that I really like from NMU and when finances allow, I’ll be officially adding it to my collection.

Japanese Music: Nitro Microphone Underground – Ikkai Kokkiri (Isshou no Onegai)
June 25th, 2011 AstroNerdBoy Much like all music I listen to, there’s not a single group where I can say, “man, I love everything they do.” Generally speaking, its a song here and a song there.

April 4th, 2008 AstroNerdBoy Ganxta Cue — Fumidasu Dake feat. Hiroshi Junior In my ongoing attempts to find Japanese music that interests me, I came upon this promotional video for the Japanese rapper Ganxta Cue. Too bad the song is cut off, but I like the sound of it enough that once I get moved, I’m going to try
Alpha — Ganbare Sugi DE Night
January 24th, 2008 AstroNerdBoy アルファ-ガンバリスギDEナイト I found this Japanese rap tune on YouTube a while back and started looking for the CD this song was on. Sadly, all the ones I found were now out of print. However, I did finally find someone on Amazon Japan who was willing to ship to the U.S. and had a copy of
