i currently enjoy the lyrical stylings of insight, gang starr, starving artists crew, immortal technique, jurassic 5, and flobots. the latest shad album (which someone recommended on here) is also awesome. It's just hard to find the good stuff in all the dog shit.
DEL THE FUNKY HOMOSAPIAN - (both sides of da brain is his best solo record)
-then he started DELTRON3030 - who were still good, but not as good as BSOTB..
- THEN he joined the gorrillaz... who i hate, and who aren't rap.
BLACKSTAR w/Mos Def and Talib Kweli. -these guys rule
AKROBATIC - boston rap
MR.LIF - MORE Boston rap
that is legitimately all i know... although i like these guys a lot.

I remember in the late 90s when some lame rapper sampled a chorus of theirs for some huge hit he had and literally everyone in my school didn't believe me when I said he stole it from a song called Passin Me By. What a bunch of fags.

not all of it is good.. a lot of garbage
ODB, Method Man, Ghostface, Raekwon, Inspectah Deck...all fantastic solo work, especially Ghostface and Meth
odb's 1st album is great 99% of everything after sucks!!
same with method man, 1 st album is great everything else not so much..
Ghostface has a few misses as well

I liked wu massacre alot though
we'll agree to disagree on Meth, and the only miss of Ghostface's that I've heard is Ghostdini Wizard of Poetry....
...but I wholeheartedly agree about Wu-Massacre, best rap album of 2010 IMO
Nope. Hip hop is gay, just like the name..."Hip", "Hop". To unrelated words that describe a garbage excuse for music. "Hey everybody, let's rip off some great samples of music that hard working musicians sweated over and talk all hard over it because our voices suck and we can't sing".
Sit on that pile of truth for a while. Your mother is a phone sex worker, and your father was a wheelbarrow!
