I can't stand Fat Joe I don't know why; his music just doesn't do it for me. Has anyone heard the whole Paper Trails cd? I was downloading some of last night and the Luda/TI track on Paper trails is MUCH betta then the one on Theater of the mind.
Wonder how long it'll be before they're beefing again. Will.I.Am has a song circulating on the XM stations - I always catch the end of it so I don't know the name but I LOVE the beat. If I find out I'll post the link
Um, I love rap, but the stuff posted in here doesn't reflect the title.
How the **** does Helthah Skeltah, and really even Common and Jay-Z not reflect the title "The Rap I know and Love"?
If all you can love is what you know, and all you know is Luda and Kanye...how is that wrong?
I doubt many people on city-data have hours to dig around for music no one has heard of so they can ride on the high horse with you. From all of the posts I've read...you are full of ****. Why do you even come in here? Why don't you post what you like and at least contribute...don't wanna make your "underground" secrets...popular and "mainstream"?
Hip hop culture has changed..this isn't the 80s or 90s. People can't eat sleep and breathe hip hop and expect to survive. We're out here grinding it out at work...college, etc. I personally don't listen to the radio, or get my music from TV. I have to listen to XM-Sirius, and stream yahoo at work. Every month I try to browse amazon.com to check new releases and download as many albums as I can...before I go buy them of course.
Please...tell us your secret almighty rap listener.

Heltak Skeltah aint bad...D.I.R.T. was pretty good, but Jay Z is a joke, and as much as I love Common, his new CD is trash and he's a sell out.
As far as your second point, don't wanna make my underground secrets popular and mainstream? Um, not quite. I dont have any control over that.

That's a decent variety. I saved the thread, you're welcome.
You're getting emotional man!
I have heard some of the stuff you posted and love it. Underground hip hop is tight as hell!
But I think the point of this thread was to post some of the mainstream stuff that we do like or underground stuff. I personally cannot really stand mainstream hip hop but some of it I do like but I just like underground hip hop better.
You should listen to some more Q-Tip, that's why I posted him. His lyrics are still full of depth. He is one of the greatest abstract rappers there ever was.
Some older stuff too.......but seriously...it is okay to like a few radio songs. Life is too short. Myself, I like production...so beats is what gets me.
I played the HELL out of Rah Diggas "Dirty Harriet" album back in the day. Was one of my favorite CDs.
Um, I love rap, but the stuff posted in here doesn't reflect the title.
Soo instead of being negative why don't you post a link to a song you like?
