Okay so who loves hip hop? Let's use this thread to discuss and recommend good MCs/rappers/whatever you want to call them.

Well, to start off, here are a few of my favourite albums:

Eminem - Slim Shady LP
It's just masterful. It's cartoon-y, over the top satirical violence. It's also hilarious.

Dalek - Abandoned Language
Some of the nicest beats I've heard. A really capable MC spittin' over noise/drone/industrial beats. Not always easy to listen to, either. They described this album as David Lynchian and it's true.

Sage Francis - A Healthy Distrust
I love Sage, he's near the top for passion put into his music. He's experimental but not overly so. Slow Down Gandhi is an amazing song, same with The Buzz Kill.

Isosceles - Face the Music
This might just be my favourite rap album, not sure though. It all sounds so desperate and it has one of the saddest rap songs I've ever heard, Hate To See You Go. It's a shame that these guys changed their name to TWIN, and then started making whack music.


anticon releases some interesting stuff but some of it is hard to classify as rap. But we'll throw that in there anyways. Then you got your classics like Rakim, Nas, Organized Konfusion, etc. That's good for now, I don't wanna just list as many as I can lol
