    I wouldn't even call that rap music, more like mainstream radio rap.

    My favorites:
    Big L
    The Roots(illadelph halflife)
    Nas(illmatic)
    Gang starr
    Wu-tang
    GZA(Beneath the surface, Liquid Swords)
    Immortal technique
    Jay-Z(Reasonable Doubt)

    I could go on all day, check em out for some real hip hop.

    I got my first taste in rap through:

    1. Beastie Boys (will always be my favorite)
    2. Young MC (first rap album I bought with my own money... lol)
    3. DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince (Nightmare on My Street.. nuff said!)
    4a. Dr. Dre/Snoop (If I have to say anything, then I'll say "The Chronic")
    4b. 2Pac (Amazing!)
    5a. Digital Underground (The Humpty Dance WAS that epic!)
    5b. MC Hammer ("Too Legit" was a must on the bus heading to basketball games.)

    During my high school days, my favs were extended too:

    6. Bone: Thugs In Harmony (First of Tha Month was a kickstarter for my cross country runs)
    7. Warren G (who DOESN'T know the words to Regulators?!?!?!)
    8. Anyone who was on "The Show" soundtrack (DMX, Redman/Methodman, Onyx... wow!)
    9. House of Pain (One word... Jump!)
    10. Coolio (of you never listened to Fantastic Voyage: hmmmmm)

    As the years went on:

    11. The Roots (a buddy of mine kn the Air Force introduced me to them. Straight dope.)
    12. Ja Rule (Hate that he fell off.)
    13. Jay-Z (First song I heard of his was "Can I Get A...". Next day went out and got all his albums.)
    14. Ludacris (Word of Mouf was one of the greatest Rap albums ever.)


    My Honorable Mention:

    Ton Loc, Vanilla Ice, Mystical, Wreks-n-Effect, Eminem (he's good just not my fav)

    I am sure there are others, but these are the most frequently played on my playlist.

    Mmm. Vanilla Ice is like Kenny G. Everyone knows of him and a lot of people have an album BUT no one ever bought said album or openly admits to ever listening to it (ie: I dunno how it got on my iPod, must be a glitch with Apple!), edit your post man! :P


    Best current rapper = Yolandi Visser.

    If this is directed at me, I listed him because "Ice Ice Baby" was/still is the bomb! Sixth grade field day was a constant play-rewind tape (yes kids, tape)-play-repeat.

    No shame in admitting I'm a fan of Mr. Van Winkle.

    I don't really have a favorite artist, mostly because i listen to almost all rap..
    So a couple good songs I like are:
    Artist | Song

    Future- Turn on the Lights

    Cash Out- Cashin' Out

    Wiz Khalifa/Snoop Dogg- 630 (other known as "Delvin and Mac Go Back to School")


    but yeah.. other than the 3rd one, Cash Out + Future are not commonly known, and are pretty new in the rapping business. But they are still pretty good
    Bringing back the wave!
