Great video discovery made possible through YOUTUBE. It's a perfect example of Global Hip-Hop. Ali B is rapping in Arabic while Yes-R raps in Dutch. Both are from Holland but have Arab ancestry. Akon is known as an American artist but in this video he also represents for Senegal his country of origin.
