Who is out there that I might not be aware of.

I have the following: Dizzee Rascal, KMD, Roots Manuva, Madvillain, Streets, Dalek, Latyrx...


Should I check out MF Doom? Anyone else? I know there are some fans on here.

Thanks. I think I have that Mos Def/Kweli release, but the others are a good start. Something to keep me occupied.

I should probably stay out of this thread, but this is the best list of unlistenable crap I have ever seen. Good job.[/i]

I don't pretend to be an expert on rap, but this was the first album I thought of. I always liked it, but the bits between songs got tiresome after awhile.

This is a good substitution for the Hiero album. In fact, it's better than the hiero album, but hiero got the props for being on an indie label.
