Discuss your gangsta ass shit.  Let's talk about some rap that's not on the RADIO.  That shit hurts the genre way too much.

Here's what I've been bumpin lately:

Brother Ali - the undisputed truth (quite possibly the best rap cd I've ever heard)
GZA - Liquid Swords
Raekwon - Only built 4 cuban linx
Del Tha Funkee Homosapien - 3030, no need for alarm
swollen members - bad dreams
ghostface killah - supreme clientèle
method man - 421...the day after

let's hear some dope recommendations

theis

i like the roots a lot...and n.w.a.

that's about it.

emehlen

Tupac's underground music (not the shitty official releases that remixed his unreleased songs b'cuz they ruined perfectly good songs)
mobb deep's "hell on earth" is an essential rap album
The Roots
Common has nice beats but I dont think he can rap

Come to think of it, I dont listen to rap hardly at all... because of all the mainstream shit turns me off

Jacob

pray nightfall release me
then i could wander, wander to deep sleep

reimdaheim

the first(?)  bright eyes album - bridging the gap
wu tang - enter the 36 chambers
outkast
some german hiphop: mainly beginner and jan delaye's first album

stu

def jux holds it down

E-Money

im not really into rap at all. especially this radio soulja boy bullshit.

but atmosphere is prettty good and u gotta love snoop. I saw him live and he actually has musicians around him playing instruments.
its not this standing around a dj bullshit, waving a towel around talking about how big your rims are!

scatterbrain

jay z-reasnable doubt
wu tang forever
nas godsson
non phixion there is no future
bone thugsand harmony-the art of war,e.1999 eternal
tupac-are you still down

thats probably the greatest hip hop record ever.
so ahead of its time . wordplay is sick.

my 2nd fav has to be Ghostfaces "Ironman"
and of course gzas liquid swords.

also find lord finesse's mixtapes , he had one with L that was great.

Del is the shit, if you like you should check out other releases from the heiroglyphics crew (souls of mischief, casual etc. ). heiroglyphics "3rd eye vision" is amazing. best hip hop album ever.

of course no one mentioned any kool keith projects. this guy is the shit too.

heiroglyphics - 3rd eye vision and full circle
kool keith - black elvis
Del - all (when will the 11th hour come out!?!)
lupe fiasco - the cool, best hip hop ive heard in awhile
souls of mischief - 93 til infinity
tribe called quest - you know which ones ;)
outkast - ATLiens
