[2006] Tigarah: Japanese baile funk
Quote:
Japanese rapper Tigarah infuses her music with a distinctly Brazilian brand of funk. The artist is gaining a global following for her fresh new take on the baile funk genre -- a street music with roots in Brazil, which she spices up with rap lyrics in her native tongue.

zomg Tigarah, Japanese Rapper with Brazillian Accent.
Official Site

Go there and pick either Japanese Queen or Girl Fight. Basically, all songs in the list are AWESOME.

I don't know much about her, but her music is great XD

Looks like she's an indies artist. Btw, she's Hip Hop / Rap.

Her songs are only available by myspace and her official site...
She's an independent artist and isn't signed to any label yet, but you can buy her EP here.

By the way she's really cool!!! Some of her songs are very catchy and have clever lyrics...especially "Japanese Queen".

Some ppl will notice some familiar sound between M.I.A. and TIGARAH...she's is like a japanese version of her. Just a little more j-popped.

OMG I can't believe brazillian "bailes funk" are contaminating japan ahahh Funk sucks, but once it gets stuck on your head you're damned to get into groove with it (and feel ashamed) LMAO!!!

Honestly, I'm yet to wonder why does the worst of brazillian music get to channel and get attention from japanese artists LOL I just hope ayumi won't get into that trend ahahha

I'm glad people like her. I actually cannot purchase anything online so I'm glad if people would support her through purchasing her music, so she will notice that her efforts & works are appreciated.

Never heard of Tigarah before.

What exactly is baile funk? (as it says in the thread title).

EDIT - nevermind about my question, I saw the answer in first post, lol. ^^;

"baile funk" is not a music genre, it's "funk ball" or "funk party", the parties where they play this kind of music...

here, we call it "funk carioca" what means something like "Rio de Janeiro's funk"
