ISO Russian movie & music recommendations

[JoAnne Van Tuyl]

I don't think you'd categorize them as hip-hop, but there's a reggae-rap 
(?) very wonderful group called 5'nizza (same as Piatnitsa).  My college 
students and my 15-year old (even those who know no Russian) really enjoy 
them.  I'd recommend their "Unplugged" CD.  You can also find their lyrics 
on the web.
