Dutch Hip Hop Music Gruppo musicale & Musicista Lista

Dutch hip-hop or Nederhop ("Netherhop") is hip-hop created by Dutch speaking musicians in the Netherlands and Flanders (Belgium). Although the first Dutch rappers in Europe typically wrote in the English language, this began to change when Osdorp Posse gained a big following of fans. They were the first to record and release hip-hop in the Dutch language, perform for big crowds and to achieve chart success with their albums.

In 1995, the same year Osdorp Posse had a top 20 chart hit with their album Afslag Osdorp, rapper Extince was the first Dutch rap artist to achieve a top 10 hit in the singles charts with Spraakwater.

After rapper Def Rhymz was the first to reach the Dutch main chart with number 1 hits such as Doekoe (Sranan Tongo for 'money'; 1999), and Schudden ("Shake (it)"/"Shaking"; 2001) with a more pop, R&B and dance influenced sound, Dutch language hip-hop has grown into a staple of mainstream pop music in the Netherlands and Flanders in the 21st century.
