The Chinese Hip Hop Scene

Last night was another friend's last big night on the town so we went to her favorite club, Spot, for some dancing and general good times. It plays all the mainstream hip-hop songs, and the dance floor is usually packed until at least 3:30 am. So amidst all the thugged-out Chinese folks, I spotted a wonderful thing! A Taiwanese guy with one of the biggest afros I've ever seen, complete with pick! It was glorious, so we asked if we could take a photo. He graciously agreed and then resumed looking cool on the outskirts of the dance floor.

Also, in what I thought to be a really amazing mix, the DJ mixed Kelis's Milkshake, with Michael Jackson's Billie Jean! I laughed out loud, the social commentary was too much. I'm not sure if the DJ actually meant it that way, but it really was inspired!
