I would also recommend Lifesavas to anyone who likes Blackalicious. Spirit in Stone is a great album.

edan's first album primitive plus is lo-fi old school beats and totally off the wall rhymes. it's probably one of my favorite albums.
"silver surfer on a cerebellum/MCs go to the zoo & when they're wac, parrots tell 'em" dr. octogon's great. keith's dr dooooom album is also amazing. he's got a new UFO-conspiracy album coming out, i gotta check that out.

when hiphop came on the scene it was just party music, barely different to disco, it was years before it evolved beyond that, and if it hadn't been picked up by mtv (and become a financially viable medium with exposure outside of its home city) it would probably have disappeared and possibley never evolved into the heaviness of groups like public enemy or the wu-tang. |

anything i recommend would just be echoing what someone else has said, so i'll just give you a word of warning: be very careful with "indie" hip hop, because most of it is very bad (like anything from the anticon label).

HIP to the HOP. I love old school hip hop. I love the old rappers. They took their time to write a rhyme. If there is noone rhymin then you are just listening to DJ beats. nothing wrong with that, but I gots to have the MC
Public Enemy (my favorite) A Tribe Called Quest De La Soul Eric B. & Rakim (my recent fave. I have been listening to PAID IN FULL non-stop for months now. I hear a million rhymes straight stolen by endless rappers. Pull out my cordless mic and entertain you well Before I let go I'm a spark your brain cells I took time to write - tonight I will recite So poetically inclined when the mic is held tight Rhymes start flowin' kisses are blowin MC's are knowin' that's why they're goin Home to tell a friend when the party ends "Yo, man you know Rakim? That brother struck again" and the ever classic I take seven MC's put em in a line and add seven more brothers who think they can rhyme now it'll take seven more before I go for mine now that's twenty one MC's ate up at the same time.) Kurtis Blow Boggie Down Productions (criminal minded!) Digital Underground Digable Planets Pharcyde Poor Righteous Teachers Beastie Boys (Hello Nasty is severely underrated) GangStarr RUN DMC 4evah shit there are so many. I miss the days when rappers would just fucking RAP, and there were NO sing-song choruses, and there were minimal if any opverdubs on the vocal tracks. That is why I love Eric B & Rakim. It truly was ONE DJ and ONE RAPPER and what you saw was what you got. and it was fucking wonderful. I love hearing raps where they have worked so hard on teh rhymes that there are internal rhythms and internal rhymes and just multiple great lyrical ideas. todays rappers, bre from what is mostly BULLSHIT freestylin, can't holdl a candle to it. fucking bullshit rhmes. I FUCKING HATE SUNG CHORUSES IN RAP! seems every shit ass MC nowadays has such terrible un-schooled, un-practiced "flow" that they have to overdub themselves over and over and over because, for one, their voices just suck, and two, they cannot rap without FUCKING UP. wack MC's.

Really liked Blackalicious A2G.
I don't really like the Ultramagnetic MC's so much. I'm habing trouble finding some of the other bands everyone metioned, so again I ask, If anyone has any album they'd like to share it would be most helpful.. |
