Yeah man I'm already onto MF Doom he's got some nice tracks out. Black Star..Isn't that just like Talib Kweli and Mos Def? Talib's got some good songs out by himself
Black Star is Mos Def and Talib Kweli, the best alliance in hip-hop. To bad they haven't released a new album yet.

Start with A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul ... Some current acts I dig are: Deep Thinkers, Foreign Exchange, The Sound Providers, and anything Madlib is a part of. I won't repeat the ones already mentioned, but definitely hit up alot of the acts already on the board. Tons of good music to be enjoyed out there. PS: If you want to get into hip hop, consider introducing yourself to jazz first ... it definitely makes for a better appreciation (IMO).
The Game is a great rapper, Nas my #1 favorite, The Notorious B.I.G a deceased legend, Lil Wayne straight up g, Young Jeezy reppin the A
Mac Dre, E-40, Andre Nickatina, The Luniz ("I got 5 on it" is a slap ass song by them), Federation, Frontline, Yukmouth, Keak Da Sneak, Ya' Boy, The Crest Creepaz, Turf Talk, The Delinquents. All first class Bay Area rappers. Good Songs: Bleezies-N-Heem--Mac Dre Tell Me When To Go--E-40 Clap--Mac Dre Thizzlamic--The Crest Creepaz Town Business--Keak Da Sneak Thizz Dance--Mac Dre Doing It Live--The Delinquents Rep Yo City--Various artists Dredio--Mac Dre Just some Bay slaps for ya.
I would start off with the whole Illmatic cd. Its one of the best. Talib is one of the better rappers out right now, he tore it up in dave chappelle's block party. My favorite hip hop cd right now is def the black album. anything with jay z is money.
