Default I want Hip Hop Suggestions

What am I missing? I like the inspired stuff. Rapping about drugs is acceptable, rapping about bling is not.

Inspired by the K-OS thread.

What I like,

Wu-Tang, Gravediggaz, Biggie, Old Tupac, some Beastie Boys, John Cena.


Edit: Looking for new stuff, I know Tribe and Mos Def and De La Soul. That stuff is pretty chill too.

Thanks.














I'm kidding about the John Cena thing.

If no one has mentioned Mos Def yet, he's the [censored] man. he has a solo album, he also has worked with Talib Kweli (their duo name was Black Star)

also tribe called quest is good

Check out Digible Planets - they are the smoothest. And the Pharcyde. Black Sheep kick ass too.

Do you have PE? You should definitely own Fear of a Black Planet and Nation of Millions.

Also, if you like instrumental/dj hip-hop you should check out DJ Shadow's Entroducing and The Private Press.

I am useless whn it comes to new rap/hip hop.

Agreed. Anyone who likes any rap at all should have these albums. Matty's old though, so he probably does.

based on what you like...

jedi mind tricks "violent by design"
gang starr "hard to earn"
nas "illmatic"
oc "jewelz"
dr. octagon "dr. octagonacolygist"

if you only get those five, you'll have plenty to listen to for a while.
