- 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.

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.

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.
