Rap bands that dont just sing about bicthes, money and cars?

Discussion in 'Music genres, Bands and Artists' started by Soap, Dec 7, 2008.

  1. Tonight I discovered the musical orgasm that is Immortal Technique and absolutely love them.
    My question is: are there any other rap groups out there like this?
     
  2. immortal technique is only 1 person, and ya theres alot of different rappers that dont rap about that kinda shit, they are just all underground.
     
  3. thats the dumbest thing i have ever herd....all rap is differnt mainstream rap focuses on many different things and moeny cars and shit is sum of it but theres alot more of rap than just young jeezy and shit
     
  4. correct me if i'm wrong but i think Brother Ali, Mac Lethal, Aesop Rock, Atmosphere, and Eyedea & Abilities are pretty good examples.
     
  5. Gravediggaz for 1, that'z just on some straight Halloween shyt
     
  6. What do you mean? I know that there are rappers who dont sing about that, those are the ones I am trying to find. I'm just saying I dont like rap that sings about the above mentioned, not labeling all rap as that.
     
  7. ya i no after i posted it i saw the header and realized it was a question not a statement....my b.....jedi mind tricks is sick....gang starr.....eminem old shit....shyne po.....reef the lost cauze....wu tang....many more
     
  8. Thanks guys!
    I'm looking for them now, i'll let you know how I like 'em.
     
  9. i love immortal technique, and if you liked technique, then you should check out dead prez as well, they are both underground
     
  10. congratulations!

    but what you're talking about is called hip hop

    not rap

    Rap
    - Lies, Bullshit, Media Promotion
    --------------------
    = hip hop
     
  11. indeed, and some good hip hop to start off with would be Wu Tang Clan or Nas imo
     
  12. I think N.E.R.D is pretty legit. Then again i don't listen to them much & they are more hip-hop.
     
  13. yea bro immortal technique is sick.
    here's some
    deltron 3030
    atmosphere
    common
    talib kweli
    aesop rock
    slug (rapper for atmosphere)
    living legends
    public enemy
    royce da 5'9"
    shwayze (indie-rap)
    mos def
     
  14. yea i like these too. kanye and biggie are also two of my favorites
     
  15. You'll never hear us rap about the typical bullshit
    Bling Bling, all the money they got
    All the ice they wear, and all the people they shot
    All the freaks they pull and all the cars they drive
    Only we rap about fuckin' a beehive
    You wanna keep it real, walk out your door
    That's as real as it gets from the sky to the floor

    :Yay: there are some out there

    but there is alot underground to.. thats where its at
    Real Underground Baby!
     
  16. wrong

    rap = rap

    hip hop = rap graff breakin and djing

    hip hop is a culture not a genre of music
     
  17. Atmosphere
    Eyedea
    some of Sage Francis
    Brother Ali
    POS
    Common
    TUPAC (old but he is the greatest...EVER.)
     
  18. Immortal technique is starting to piss me off....some of you may know why
     
  19. wu tang, old Outkast... Andre 3000 mix tapes are on a couple websites. there tight as hell.
     
  20. If you think that's all Hip-Hop is about you're dumb...

    I'd say the majority of Hip-Hop artists don't write about that shit, mostly just mainstream Rap.
