- Post subject: Hip Hop Appreciation (Revived)
|
Don't get me wrong, I love all of the music here but there is next to no hip hop talk. I think there should at least be a dedicated thread for the HH nerds to go nuts.
I'll start by sharing the leak of the new Underachievers album.

It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold U...blic Enemy
Had first listen to this earlier as I'm trying to dig this sort of stuff. Enjoyed it to be honest, tunes weren't bad and it was quite lyrically advanced. You've probably heard it dozens of times. But there we go buddy. I'll take recommendations. I'll keep my eagle eye out.

Yes. Please recommend good hip-hop. I know very little about the genre, and too little of the stuff I stumble onto is narcissistic or womanizing rapping accompanying bad music.
*Edit: And I have heard some hip-hop that I really like(d), so I know there's more out there.

Odd. I had this down as a indie/rock album. Don't even know why.

I was just listening to Kanye West's The College Dropout for the first time in a while and I still consider it his best album. Everyone likes My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy which has a few good songs but it's a kinda overrated. Madlib is one of the best Hip hop producers and he dropped a great album this year with Freddie Gibbs called Piñata that everyone should check out. Madlib also raps under an alter ego, Qasimoto, who has a really good album called The Unseen. I'm also a big fan of the Beastie Boys, Kendrick Lamar, Wu-Tang, A Tribe Called Quest among many others. I do agree that there should be more Hip hop represented on this site, I'm tired of seeing MBDTF as the only rap album that a lot of people here like.
