I haven't seen these guys yet so I don't know for sure. As for gangster rap in Vietnam? I think that's a terrible idea. If you're gonna copy something from America, copy the good stuff. Here is another rapper named "Rapsoul" spitting about rickshaw drivers. I think it's pretty dope. Oh and even girls rap too! Her name is Suboi. | ||

Funny thing is if you let them supposed gangsters to choose a weapon, they'd more likely pick a knife/machete because somehow it portrays toughness vs the use of guns which, traditionally, has never been a street gangster's weapon of choice for whatever reason. I know it's the same situation in other Asian countries like Korean or Hong Kong, Taiwan. Maybe someone knows better can come in and shed a light? It takes more skill to use a machete than a gun and you have to actually be physically fit to use blades effectively. With guns a weak ass coward can take down anybody so guns are not an honorable way to fight because it does not represent your true strength and for gangster that is important. It is the same mentality that the samurai class held against western firearm when they first appeared in Japan. The term gangster is translated to be either xa hoi den (black society) or giang ho (river & lake). Black society is self explanatory but the term river & lake has some origin. That term is deviated from chinese and is used to describe people who don't live anywhere permanently; they drift from town to town like water running through river and lake and live outside the law. The term river and lake has been around for a very long time. Edit: Those guys are not real gangster. They are retards. Real ones are busying pimping out models, selling drugs and making paper. They don't make youtube videos. | ||
