Home Made Kazoku

Has anybody listened to this group before? They're pretty cool! I just started listening to HMK about two weeks ago, thanks to Shoutcast internet radio on PSP, and I started my hunt for their music directly afterward. As soon as I started looking up tracks, I found out that these guys even did a song for Naruto (Shippuden, I think...)!

In my opinion, they remind me a bit of Soul'd Out; the way their music is upbeat and kinda jazzy. They sing AND rap--like a certain Diggy Mo from S.O.--and all of the songs I've heard thus far are highly entertaining and addictive.

For those who've listened to Home Made Kazoku, what do you think? Do you like/dislike this group? Why? Do you have any favorite songs by this group? I've only heard about five songs so far, but if I had to choose a favorite right now, I'd say Home Sweet Home is the one. It's the first song I heard by them on my PSP and it's been stuck in my head for the last five days now, LOL. :laugh:

Anything home made is usually great! Discuss...

I watched a few clips on youtube and i gotta say these guys are pretty good. My favorite song is kimi ga kureta mono and sarubia no tsubomi

Ohh I just looked them up on youtube and I really like that one song they sang called "Arigatou" or "Thank you" in English,did recignize the band name name at first hehe.-^-^-

I love them ^_^
There is a lot of their songs i like. I do not know why I like them so much. They are real upbeat.
I like the song
"Thank you"
"Shounen Heart"
and "Mr. Tough Guy"

Awesome band.....would they be considered J/hip-hop though???? I have never been too sure.

I've got 'Thank You' and 'Shounen Heart'. Those are pretty kick ass songs! :D: I'll have to listen to 'Mr. Tough Guy'. Does anybody have any other song suggestions?

Well, ive only heard "Thank You!!!" from the second bleach ending, but from that i think these guys are a very good group, and i rarely ever listen to anything rap related.

Home made Kazoku is nice ^^ I like this group...

I never liked rap songs before actually :p Until recently... i got hooked up to this relaxing rap songs sang by them and another by Japan's queen hip hop singer.. what was her name.... Minmi~!!! :p I love "Arigatou" ^^ the song is truly relaxing...and another is "Shounen Heart" I remember putting up a thread on relaxing hip hop songs :p but did not get much feedback... but thank you to those who did ^^

My reccomendation from this group is "Aikotoba" i think it meant... talk about love... or something like that... it's very nice ^^

That's funny, because most of the rap I listen to is in Japanese. LOL. Other than that, I only listen to a small amount of American hip hop; and they're usually the rappers that don't talk about bitches and hoes, dollars, blunts and forties. :laugh:

This is off subject, but Minmi is also Japan's reggae queen. She produces most of her own music and even music for other artists. She's awesome! :2thumbs:

Has anyone ever heard 'Lean on Me' by Home Made Kazoku? I just heard it today and... WOW!! I was very entertained by this one. Real upbeat, it's got a good bass line and it's catchy as all hell. You should check it out.
