yea, guess i shoulda quoted the other person, but i was lazy and at the bottom of the page.

Tho, not like i can talk about rap, I only listen to a select few that i grew up with, so i really dislike this new "Rap"

why not listen to underground rap i have a list in some of the past pages that are my favorites that i can remember oh and i forgot to put this on my other post http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7-hUKHhhVc&feature=r elated

fo real...underground rap still got some raw shit, the list you listen to is pretty nice, I listen to the majority of them also, along with some other guys you didn't list.

I heard his song "Imaginary Places" on Tony Hawk's Underground, and I've been hooked ever since. The dude is talented...

@bluefire4 that's funny mentioning 3-6 mafia and expecting credibility. You want hard? Canibus, Kool G Rap, Killa Priest, Then There was X....

@pumpupthevolume more like his 4th and 5th, if you thought dude was garbage now look at his first 3 albums. only reason why he gettin so much hate is cause he claim GOAT and people eating it up. http://www.xxlmag.com/online/?p=9248



don't know what all the hate's about, Be was pretty f**king good. He killed those Dilla tracks.

Ok, i know this doesn't stand up to alot of rap, but i love this song, Aside from...Him...

Yeah, good song really shame that half way through I had to turn it off

Actually I really dislike that trend in Hip-Hop that every album that comes out has so many song featuring other big name artists... like Kanye seems be to be on every other album that came out in '08.. are they that insecure about their ability that they need so many big names to prop up their album? ;_;

I know, i like to skip past that part, Luda's next part is amazing to me.

and i agree on the other part, as well.

Kay, so I haven't gone through all 19 pages of this (too long ~.~) but I noticed that NO ONE mentioned Sage Francis (couple of his songs):

Makeshift Patriot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcMJ5QD4r60

Slow Down Ghandi: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PITNYQtZWFE

Sea Lion: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BffumeEaYOI

I'm going to admit, I don't listen to a lot of rap music, and I saw this guy live at a Rise Against concert (rock music~) but I really liked him, and I think he's way too underrated. Check him out, mmkay?
