Over the years, I've had my phases with music... but over the past few months, I've just loved every bit of music that I listen to (haha, thanks Mary J.) but it wasn't until recently that I got into hip hop... and I have to say, there's nothing better than some... Dilla Jaylib Madlib Madvillian MF Doom etc. I'm not saying that other hip hop is bad, I'm amazed by hip hop, the main thing that attracts me is the lyricism.. you can't beat their flow.. I was just wondering if anyone agreed with me... and if not, represent..
I havent heard of some of those. Heres some of my favs Necro, Nas, Ill Bill, Immortal Technique, Jedi Mind Tricks, Three 6 mafia, non phixion, outerspace.
underground hip hop owns your soul, wait until you discover that shit, and i mean the real underground. . . not just the artists everyeone names so they can sound like they're in the loop
whoop whoop JMT, tech n9ne, biggie smalls, necro and ill bill are both insane, especially together on tracks, and also tons of psychopathic artists are great. like.. monoxide child, violent j, AMB pre-label. necro and ill bill walk around like MURDA MURDA KILL KILL, great, now thats stuck in my head.
Dead Prez Del The Funkee Homosapian The Living Legends Black Moon Krs-One Mf Doom Masta Ace Pete Rock and I could go on
i am in love with hip-hop at the moment, i too have ventured into each genre the roots and ghostface killah are my favs
So why don't you name those artists you speak of? I find myself to be pretty well versed in hip hop, but I may be able to learn some new stuff from you.
i think he was being sarcastic, underground hip-hop isn't the best shit, it's groups like the roots that continue to improve each album with that original underground influence who are the best
Don't worry man, I feel you 100% on that one. Amazing rhymes and some of the greatest beats of our time are on these albums, cop their work immediately if you haven't yet.
Wu tang baby. any one else here a new wu album is coming this summer? I know im pumped. anyone picked up RZA new soundtrack to Afro Samuria? i heard its ill but i want some opinons before i cope it (yes i still buy music, i like to collect and have a phyiscal copy with artwork.)
Del The Funkee Homosapian Immortal Technique Dead Prez The Living Legends Blackalicious Krs-One Tribe Called Quest Just to name a few
The hyphie shit is pretty sick indeed, add the team and nickatina to that mix and youre damn straight! For me its: Immortal Technique Andre Nickatina (especially blazed) Jedi Mind Tricks (Those unversed check out "Rise of the machines") The Roots Ras Kass Dilated Peoples Dead Prez ("Hip Hop" is their biggest song but their lesser known stuff is just as good) Lupe Fiasco Nas Eyedea and Abilities Zion I Kanye West's Underground Mixtapes Talib Kweli/Mos Def/Black Star Binary Star Black Eyed Peas (mostly pre-fergie) RJD2 (from Eugene!) Mr Lif Pharaohe Monche Three 6 Mafia Cunninglynguists MF Doom/Danger Mouse/Dangerdoom Anything timbaland appears on is usually gold. Many more, i am way into music and those are some of the best i could think of.
