Outsider - speed rap extraordinaire
By Shay • Oct 17th, 2007 • Category: Features, Korea, hip-hop, musicSaying that Outsider can rap fast is an understatement. I’ve almost never heard syllables spouted off so rapidly.
Outsider (아웃사이) may be Korea’s fastest rapper and he may very well be capable of taking the world title one day. Signed with MC Sniper’s Sniper Sound label, he is currently working on new material.
The current Guinness record holder for Fastest Rap MC is Seattle-based rapper Ricky Brown and past title holders including Rebel XD and Twista. Brown’s record was set in 2005 with 723 syllables in 51.27 seconds. Now, I can’t count near that fast but Outsider’s skills may be comparable.
Outsider doesn’t rap in English but seeing how the Fast Rapper title is determined by syllables, he should be able to give it a go.
This clip is from a show where guests must guess if the person is telling the truth of who they are, I believe. It’s a brief showcase and preview of Outsider’s skill.
Outsider is featured in “Better than Yesterday” by MC Sniper.

nice post.. i wonder if its comparable.. b/c i can’t understand the words.. are they coming out good??
well, in Korea there was some rumor that he just fastfoward his rap.But it turned out he really can do the rap with that speed. And… Yeap, they are coming out good :D
haha that is funny and interesting Dafne. Ya, I think his live performances prove he’s really rapping that fast :P
Do you know where i can find his songs? =( .. they’re really good! .. I can’t find them anywhere, and i can’t read korean ..

outsider is fastest rapper in the world but he couldn’t get name on guinness because he sang korean
It’s a lot easier to speed in Korean. If you search for it on youtube, you could easily find videos of American High School students in Policy Debate talking at an insanely fast rate. While its not as rhythmic, there’s a lot of complex words and most of the time they’re reading the material for the first time.
I’m not saying he’s not good, I’m just saying its not as crazy as it seems
I don’t know if he is the fastest in the world.. for the counting of Korean syllables and those in English are slightly different, but I swear his pronounciations are far better than Ricky Brown’s. He is a great composer, too. You should have a listen to his first album. Not so fast, but very impressive. Outsider admitted that he wanted to show that he can rap like no other, and didn’t want people to only focus on his speed. That’s why he slowed down his rap when recording his new songs.
i’m korean middle school student
outsider is fastest in the world
when he could’t try ginas book because many a little differant

That’s some great info and good point about the word pronounciation. Your English is really good for being in middle school. 감사합니다 ^^
whats the name of his album?
Hey, the name of Outsider’s album is “Soliloquist” :)
!!!!!NEWSFLASH!!!!! REBEL X.D. IS BACK IN THE BOOK AS FASTEST RAP MC IN THE WORLD! CHECK HIM OUT AT MYSPACE.COM/UNDERWORLDCONNECTION
So many untruths being told all the time. Yes, it is true that Ricky Brown broke my 2nd Guinness record of 1998 in 05′, but what everyone fails to mention is that I am now once again the current record holder, because I beat the brakes of the record that No Clue set in 2005. as 0f 07-27-2007 with 852 syllables in 42 two secs. Yes, that very much exceeds Outsiders 17 syllables a sec. In fact. If you want more facts, Outsider was NEVER in the Guinness book. Also, this is now my 3rd title for that record.
You want stats: O.K.
My first record was at 12 syllables a sec.
Ricky Browns record was at 14 syllables a sec.
Outsider is at 17 syllables a sec.
And my new and Official record is at 20 syllables a sec.
Now I’ve greatly approved upon that because being the best takes a 24/7 practice makes perfect kind of outlook.
One last things. Everyone should learn how to keep their OPIONS (cuz thats all they are) to themselves. I don’t know who Outsider is and for someone to say he is better than me obviously ain’t heard any of my stuff out side of my Guinness raps. He’s Korean and doesn’t rap English. Its like comparing apples to cheese burgers. And besides, that shit really needs to stop. Its like me saying Im ma come to Korea and whip everyone’s ass in Tea Kwan Doe. It ain’t gonna happen. I am a raw ass gutter underground mc who don’t play games with kats spittin’ what I perfer to as commercial watered down bullshit. Fast or not. My skillz are the truth and are back up by 2 decades of learning, experience and up bringing in the art form. I’ve seen and lived through hip hop transcending from real cultural underground nigga shit, to watered down, every body and they momma are mc’s now, let’s merge it with Rock, R&B, country, white boys are black boys now, Lets rap in Mc Donalds commercials, kids cartoons, and every fucking thing under the sun type bullshit.
