Members King Kashue Posted December 4, 2006 Members Share Posted December 4, 2006 Originally posted by chunkathalon dalek - of filthy tongues and griots easily one of my favorite albums. when I make other people listen to it, it's contagious. The fact that anyone (much less a popular musician) knows what a griot is kind of sets them apart, now doesn't it? I don't imagine that Sundiata is on too many people's reading lists...As for folks who say all rap, and especially all hip-hop, isn't music, they can go stand off the side with the folks who claim all country is awful (or dismiss any entire genre)...Get out of the way, and let the musicians who are willing to find talent where ever it is get down to business...

Members collinwho Posted December 4, 2006 Members Share Posted December 4, 2006 Originally posted by bleepo Gym class heros if i'm feeling emo rap. emo rap. I really get a kick out of that designation, but it is entirely deserving for an act like Gym Class Heroes. I suppose I really should be calling P.O.S. "punk rap" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mlwarriner Posted December 4, 2006 Members Share Posted December 4, 2006 Originally posted by collinwho Mainstream rap, not so much into it, but . . .I'm fortunate to live in Mpls, where there is a very strong "indie/underground" hip-hop scene. I'd recommend checking out just about anyone on Rhymesayers (one of the biggest independent hip-hop labels) for good rap. specifically:Eyedea and Abilities P.O.S.Doomtree (P.O.S. is part of this project, also)AtmosphereHeiruspecs (usually plays with a live band)Granted, I'm more of a indie/alt rock type person, but these are just a few hip-hop/rap acts that I really really respect.
