I got curious about the influences of western culture in Japan, and I started to wonder if western rap and hip-hop artists were known in Japan. Surprisingly, I came across a lot of videos of Japanese people discussing Tyler the Creator. This one specific video goes into a fast summary of Tyler's works and his growth as an artist in a short video. It was a little hard to follow along as the speaker was speaking really fast, but I was able to understand most of it and even learnt new things about this artist that I didn't know before. I think it is really cool how these artists have been able to create a fandom outside of the west and also connect with people from Japan.
