Fort Minor Archives

For those who have reviewed my biography, I have mentioned that besides being a blogger. I love to rap. But in sigh, I rarely find my friends around me have a same interest with me. Generally, there are many styles and genres in music: classical, jazz, rock, hip hop, pop, punk, techno and many more. I love rap song, because in every rap song, there is a story behind it. And if you listen carefully, you can feel what the expression of the singer at the moment is.

No matter in Chinese song or English song, I love most of the rap song. There are some of the crews I admire, Fort Minor, Linkin Park, Black Eyed Peas, Edison Chen with his crew MC Yan, MP4 and others.

The most favorite crew for me in English Song is Fort Minor.
