Thought I'd share this, one of my favourite tracks over the last few years. The video is nice too, despite the abundance of hipsters.

Link.

Got to love this dude's heavy Swedish accent...

Had a listen to this and few other youtube of his and quite like. Gave the album a listen too and its a good solid album, good to hear a bit of hip hop with some interesting electro kind of beats

Not too bad at all. The song My Cool just reminds me of Bombfunk Emcees for some reason.

The thing is he probably couldn't sound more American if he tried but nobody would detract from him because of it where if it was someone Irish or English doing it they would be slated.

Yeah the fact that they think they are from Atlanta, and the video looks like god awful house party in up state New York is pretty amusing. One has to wonder how strong semi immigrant kids accents are, and how much they particurly want to associate with their place of birth. Besides, Swedish accents aren't exactly the strongest in comparision to English or irish ones.

The little dude with the last verse has a pretty crazy flow though.

I don't know about him putting on an accent there, maybe thats just how it is when he rhymes???? As regards to if it was same thing with and Irish/English accent i generally have no problem hearing someones accent coming through but it does get annoying when it is obvious they are accentuating there own accent or adopting a 'more common' accent (if that makes sense!).

ive been production manager at a few gigs where he has supported, alot of swedes speak english with american accents, and he is one of them, im sick of hearing him at this point though

Makaveli

It's not so much that he raps in an American accent more so how he raps like he is American. I remember the first time I heard this when he said homie and n***as I thought it was awfully cringeworthy.

The beat in the song is phat for want of a better word.

wow I really like this... very fluid!
