*Facepalm*

Why...WHY!?

Wada is a stereotypic bastard if he thinks we all play Halo and listen to rap music, seriously, stop trying to be "kewl and Western".

seriously ..... do ppl really think Wada is responsible for the Rap seriously? Japan has Rap too it actually pretty popular FF is made for teens and Rap just of the todays music in both regions of the world

get over it if ya dealt with X-2 you can deal with subtle rap

why blame wada. blaming wada for every decision his design team makes isn't very logical. It's likely he had had little to do with it. And lots of JRPG's have had rap music like listed above.  Acclaimed ones for that matter like persona.

There's also tons of japanese rap.

Because Wada has a stupid face...and he...makes lots of money?

And there might be Japanese rap, but we all know that rap in a Final Fantasy game = money grab for Western audiences.

Don't ruin my fun, I like being a Wada hater :(

I like it. Kinda reminds me of Persona 3.

Sounds ok to me, somehow matches the setting.

THe Kupo's on the other hand...feel forced :P

Even though I dislike that kind of music, it didn't sound bad.
I liked the battle music better than XIII's.

This plus 1000

So, now FFXIII-2 has an OST that resembles TWEWY? Now i'm even more hyped. :)
