wow Shit MC Jin, lol Woot, More Cantonese Rap!, isnt the girl on the left ,like a reporter or something?
For some reason feel like they wnt get very far, cantonese music these days gets worse n worse i think
lol what u mean canto is droppin, but then again, Taiwan is like Owning in music atm, then theres korean and jap
Not too sure if that is really a compliment. I don't think Joey's vocal is that great compare to other artist. I remember her first concert, critics was negative on her live voice too.
