And if you need any help with whether Spanish rap is the best ever then try these....

especially this one!
El gordo master es probable mi favorito de todo tiempo

You just don't know how much fun I had putting this post together!

I should also mention that most Mexican or other paises hispanohablantes rap is rubbish. It's all gangsta style, somos soldados y otras tonterias. Except for Calle 13, they are above and beyond. Puerto Rico rap, por supuesto me gusta.

(Vanom)
Yeah, Ni-Van I'm local.
I don't stare at the daylight, I'm nocturnal.
Shut down the nakamal, the place is chilly.
1, 2, 3 shells and relax a bit.
Borogu, El Manaro, relax (???) with the squad inna tropical.
Lowkey, I don't try to make noise like sako. [Sako might be a reference to Sarkodie?]
(Chorus)
Kava hemi kastom mo kalja, Big Man i blesem rus, hemi nature. Yumi laetem the deep lo nasen ya. Fulumap, wan litre, no drama.
(Chorus)
Kava is custom and culture, Big Man / God blesses the roots, that's nature. We light the deep of the nation here. Fill it up, one litre, no drama.
(Local Remedy)
Yeah, I got the dreads but I don't smoke.
Maloku then I swish with a small Coke.
Herb growing higher than a golf stroke.
Walk into the village, melomelo, hemi no joke.
Taem yu luk ship hemi saed, 2 or 3 tonne oli lod dei lo naet.
Spos 2 or 3 man oli rao oli faet.
Take 2 or 3 shells to make peace i olraet.

(Local Remedy)
Yeah, I got the dreads but I don't smoke.
Maloku then I swish with a small Coke.
Herb growing higher than a golf stroke.
Walk into the village, melomelo, that's no joke.
When you see alongside a ship, they're loading 2 or 3 tonnes day and night
If 2 or 3 men argue or fight..
Take 2 or 3 shells to make peace, its alright.
It's alright, it's alriht, it's alright here.
Each time I'm not drunk every night.
1.5 walk around until daylght.
Freswater 1 to Freswater 5.
Freswater mixing it well in a bucket.
Try to buy a kilo where I do business at the market.
Kava is the best drink of the nation.
Check out all the millionaires at the plantation.
(Mantis)
Bislama drama taem blo kam tugeta laetem faya.
Every time I take a shell I take it one after the other.
Many times I'll be chillin under cover, olsem 6 2 wetem botel
Oh wait, wrong number.
Oh wait, jekem date, Friday ya pas lo nakamal lo nekis doa,
Yumitu o yumi 4, neva blem lo 250 got me slackin out my jaw.
Still I never let it take over my mind or my soul.
Let me come and take a shell.
Leftemap wetem rispekt, mi mi traem blo kasem waes.
Yu yu traem blo kasem ded.
There's a difference between addiction and culture.
All of them are vultures in abundance takin over.
I'm tryna pass over ol toktok blo ol olfala bifo.
Kava save spolem yu sos yu no save kontrol.
Take a spel, nao mekesmap, use wetem kalja.
Fiji stick to water, yumi Vanuatu kava ya.
(Mantis)
Bislama drama when it's time to get together and light the fire.
Every time I take a shell I take it one after another.
Many times I'll be chillin under cover, like 6 2 with a bottle.
Oh wait, wrong number.
Oh wait, check the date, it's Friday at the nakamal next door.
The two of us, or the four of us, never 250vt shell got me slackin out my jaw.
Still I never let it take over my mind or my soul.
Let me come and take a shell.
Lift it up with respect, I'm trying to become wise.
You're trying to get dead.
There's a difference between addiction and culture.
And all of them are vultures in abundance takin over.
I'm tryna pass over the things the old people used to say before,
Kava can spoil you so you cannot control.
Take a break, now mix it up, use with culture.
Fiji, stick to water. Us Vanuatu kava here.

(Falgon)
Fulap homie blok tru lo wan shell.
Be economic road tru lo wan shell.
So mi dring evri naet, no mi no spel.
Helpem bae man putum kaekae lo tebol tru lo wan shell.
Sendem pikinini go lo skul tru lo wan shell.
Yumi strongim bak unity, tru lo wan shell.
(Falgon)
Lots of homies (block / get engaged) true, with one shell.
But the economic path, true, is by one shell.
So I drink every night, no I don't take a break.
Help people to put food on the table, true, by one shell.
We re-strengthen unity, true, by one shell.
(Pijin)
Wan shell? Hemi no naf.
Samtaem mi wantem plastik karem fulumap.
Be spos bodi blo malok i nomo gat.
Mi go lo stret lo nakamal we i kamantap.
Mi askem hem i save gone be yumi talem
Pliiiis yu no wari tok. Tong, yu save trastem mi, spos kastoma i nogat
Afta baket i fulap, yeah, kava hemi stap, yeah, hemi ded mane.
(Pijin)
One shell? That's not enough.
Sometime I want to get a whole plastik filled up.
But if the "body" of the kava is all there is.
I go straight to the nakamal where it's being prepared.
I ask him could it be gone but we tell them
Pleeeeease, you no worry-talk. Tong, you can trust me, if there's no customers after the bucket is full, yeah, there's kava, that's dead money.
(Joshua Leo)
Nao go longwe yumi luksave yeah.

(Joshua Leo)
Now go around where we recognise yeah
The importance of it, oh no no I found it
Prepare good ground, and look how it will grow
You don't pause bro, lookout, laziness, oh
Tie it up on the truck, look how we move.
Your economy will only be cold as snow.
(Nawarake)
Tied up, kava make my eyes shut.
Kava make me nambut from wanem mi mi kwaet ya.
Nakamal i nogat plastik.
So I buy a brand new Vanuatu wota, kapsaetem.
Hello hello, I'm developing a certain kind of feeling

And I drive real slow cause I wanna stay alive
Bas i ovatekem mi, at least 5 times
Taem toj blo trak i shaen, mi mas sarem ae
Ol pasenja i fraet
Call me King Solomon from mi waes we mi waes
(Nawarake)
Tied up, kava make my eyes shut.
Kava make me mute, that's why I'm quiet.
The nakamal hasn't got any plastiks.
So I buy a brand new Vanuatu water and dump it out.
Hello hello, I'm developing a certain kind of feeling
Like every time I drink some melomelo here, huh
We're tired, like you're a white man "kiling the light" (closing down the kava bar)
It's just me, got my kava skin degree
Done got my masters, Kava University
Drink a 1.5 and I get cross eyed
And I drive real slow cause I wanna stay alive
The bus passes me at least 5 times
When the trucks headlights shine, I have to close my eyes
The passengers are scared
Call me King Solomon cause I'm totally wise
(Krasrut Star)
String blo bodi i numb taem mi tekem fes shell

(Krasrut Star)
The body's string numb when I take the first shell.
You're angry with a good brother man, face is very bitter.
Burp a little, fart a little, spit and be glad a little.
Overcast weather in a bottle, national cold.
Who's [NSFW], who's not here cause they've got an upset stomach.
If you haven't any money at home, play (go play in the road?) daddy.
Uncle Krasrut public holiday style when I stand up with the mic
Y'all can easily feel how well my lyrics are hitting you.
Like wisdom, double vision, no high beam
Left and right, ears ring
Leg neck (???) students coconut shell kava king
Never miss the extra kastom bell, it rings.
Freshwater 1, Green Light, El Manaro long Valastul, Plan B, another one, Naruwayu (???)

Women are asking their husbands where's Mister Kava

Which is why Koro Island kava messes up so many Fijians because they're used to 5 or 6% KL content if they are lucky and then they hit the 12 or 13% Koro Islands hard and can't wake up for a day or more!!

Apologies, I missed a couple of lines on the English translation. Anyway, it's a fantastic song and I hope my small, flawed effort might have made it accessible to a wider audience.
