Fort Minor - Kenji

As close to rap as i'll get but this is a seriously awesome song. Lyrics in the video, but read text below even if you don't listen. Taken from wikipedia: "Kenji" is a song off the album The Rising Tied by Fort Minor. The song features clips from an interview with the father and aunt of lead singer Mike Shinoda and tells the vivid story of the life of Mike's family before, during and after World War II including their internment at Manzanar. The title is of reference to Shinoda's middle name. The lyrics of the song tell of how a man "Kenji" was a Japanese immigrant just before the World War II started, and how when the war started all the Japanese were moved over to camps, where they lived in fair conditions, but when they moved back how they were subjected to racial discrimination, at the end of the song Shinoda speaks of how Kenji is fictional, but he was just a cover name for the people that such events actually fell upon.
