Default Artists that use more than 1 language

Like Manu Chau for example, do you know any recent artist that uses more than one language in his song or that he uses a mesh of several languages, or a language invented by himself?

Senyawa uses several different Indonesian languages in their music. Wiki mentions Sulawesian, Javanese and Bahasa Indonesia.

Kishi Bashi is an American of Japanese extraction (if I remember correctly, his parents are immigrants). He often sings in English with a bit of Japanese thrown in.
