Do you like French hip hop beat makers who will be at SXSW? Then you will love Onra, a French hip hop beat maker who will be at SXSW. That was a bit redundant wasn't it. Onra had the brilliant idea to mix decades old Vietnamese records with hip hop beats for his album 'Chinoiseries'. The product of which is arguably his best work. It was so well received, Cocoa Cola chose one of the tracks from that album, "The Anthem" below, to be used in a commercial for the 2008 Olympics. But I love the R&B/soul mixes from his latest album 'Long Distance,' title track above, more. If you like what you hear, new or previous, visit his site here.
