Many rap performers of Latin American descent use a mix of Spanish and English lyrics.
And I've heard some mixed French/English rap as well. It's probably common of hip hop all over the world. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

There is a song by La Tordue called "Le Petrin" which is one refrain sung in many languages: Chinese, French, German, Arabic, Hindi, Polish, Hebrew, Spanish, and Dutch
among others. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCwjXUKiY55o 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

There's a song that was on the Eurovision song contest a few years ago. It's called
Liubi, Liubi I love you by a romanian group called Todomondo. it's in English, Italian, Spanish, Russian, French and Romanian. I don't know the quality of the languages but it's certainly more bearable than other eurovision songs. Edited by LazyLinguist on 23 July 2010 at 6:12pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I'm not sure how much Japanese they know:
Curumin is the name of a Brazilian band which likes to do Bossa Nova, Rap, Funk, Jazz... well, I like their sound and so they speak Brazilian Portuguese. In their latest album JapanPopShow they have some random japanese words or phrases thrown in there. Along with the usual English as well. So in total three: Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese, and English.
Whoa, I haven't heard much rap in Chinese or Japanese because I usually stay away from them but this makes me want to see more! I've heard only the opposite - that rap in Chinese seems pretty silly but I find this very nice (although I can't understand much other than Daijoubu) ++ I also liked the use of the lion dancers and his dress in a mix of tradition and modern. At least the camera makes it look very cool (I'm tired of gloomy looking rappers with gloomy colors). Edited by JimmyJameskun on 24 July 2010 at 8:54pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||
