You need to check your history. Hip-Hop was created in Bronx N.Y. I know my hip-hop. Especially being in the industry. A hip-hop artist and producer. Since you consider 2pac not to be hip-hop (Actually the best hip-hop artist to ever LIVE, do some google search to scrounge up some facts) even though Biggie was my favorite artist of all time. I refuse to argue. I'll give you some hip-hop names skizo and also to educate other members within these forums who may not have any idea who these people are.

I just know my history I grew up on all of it. I have been a hip-hop fan since the beginning around the KRS-One Boogie Down Production days.
There are more but not much in this current bubble gum climate. Take from someone who admires a lot of folks. I know I definitely forgot some worthy contenders in my list. I'm currently just going off the dome.
Thats hip-hop as you probably may know.

1. N.W.A. (Dr. Dre, Eazy-E, Ice Cube, MC-Ren, DJ Yella, The DOC(sub member really)

Actually unless your over 18 I wouldn't download any of these. I don't want to get your parents upset lol. Seriously. I can think of alot more just not at the moment. My brain is kinda fried right now. Just look up all the names and album titles. Most can be found. Look around.
Posted by: T.S.O.L.
Dude I'm 18, and I've got alot more serious issues on my mind than rap lyrics..
anyways, i've already got stuff by Blue Sky Black Death, Wu-Tang, Immortal Technique and NWA, but alot of those albums i havn't listened too yet
The Devil's Rejects is one of my favorite movies that album stuck out just because of the name
thanx for those recommendations, I'll be sure to give them all a try over the next month or so :D
(ps you mixed and matched putting artists in the brackets and putting albums in the brackets lolz)

Wasn't sure. There are 13 and 14 year olds here. Yea I was doing 80 different things when I posted earlier. My brain was fried. Definitely download MF Doom and Devils Rejectz. If you need DR I can sendspace it to you (In the future). Theres alot out there. I'll make more good Jedi Mind type suggestions when my brain clears. I sound like a complete dumbass right now lol. I just haven't gotten alot of sleep lately and I hear ya on those life issues (They effect us all).
Oh yeah they use alot of stuff from the DR movie. You'll like it. Oh another good one is Civilaringz "I" album(He is a Wu affiliate). I can do without all the screw american stuff but the beats are ill as hell on that album. It's produced by the rza and other wu-tang affiliates. You'll enjoy that album if you like stoupe production "Eve of war" and "Winds devouring men" type stuff.

rap of the day:
(the album) Dr. Octagonecologyst by Dr. Octagon
its fuckin ridiculous porncore/ acid rap :D
Posted by: grimms
Kool Keith is cool. I always like his Dr. Octagon gimmick. Kool Keith is from the original old skool days. Forgot to mention him. Loved that album as well. I do a lot of weird shit in my music like him. I like concept based albums.

Not my type of hip-hop. did listen to his latest album just because of the hype. Wasn't my flavor of hip-hop, but won't knock him. Different strokes for different folks.

pete rock - ny's finest (2008)
peter philips convinces with a late work that you can enjoy without feeling old. of course it's classical to the max. pete rock doesn't have to invent rap newly, he just gotta be pete rock. the fact that young guru mixes helps, but essential is that pete rock is in good shape, likes to rap and steps in front of the mic very often.
it doesn't play a role that he never was and is the biggest mc, only the flavour counts.
when he comments with redman (whose last albums sucked bigtime) on things in "best believe", everything is clear.
as well as when he celebrates himself over a green-lantern-beat: "don't be mad because you're not me / i'm a fucking posterboy for the mpc".
one thing you can overlook: nobody needs jim jones or the lords of the underground on a pete rock album that you need.
p.s. check out nahright.com. it's a nice hiphop blog.

Hahaha...he's been saying he's releasing another album forever now. I'm beginning to think he's done with the rapping game, just going to stick to producing...or maybe even retire..

I'm a producer. Dr. Dre is my all time favorite producer. Detox is rumored to be released in the fourth quarter of 2008 (Fall season). We've been hearing about this album for about 5 years now though. We'll see. Dre is in his forty's now though.

Rumors...lies...more rumors. I remember when everyone got hyped that it was going to release last year. I'm taking the stance that I won't believe it, until I see it.

^^Pretty much. I'm still hopeful but we'll see it when it presents itself in front of us all.
