hey, sorry i missed this
best thing to come out to date is giant panda "fly school reunion" - its super sweet in terms of throw-back-ness - one guy does a quasi cover of a tribe called quest
i would avoid the new blackalicious as it is SUPER lame, the newer pigeon john has its moments, the newest awol one EP is super duper (as all of his stuff is), beat konducta by madlib is good if your stoned, they just rereleased zimbabwe legit (get in like you heard it when it came out)
other than that i listen to old school as it is more reliable in terms of quality - lately its been naughty by nature, big daddy kane, ultramagnetic mcs, mantronix, dj jazzy jeff and will smith
mid school gems such as heltah skeltah, casual, funkdoobiest, ill al skratch, leaders of the new school "time" LP, too short...and...well thats it as of late
my avatar is a starving african child...he rules everything around him !!!
hope that helps -!-

thx, I think the best think to do for me is to check Awol One ! (haven't heard anything by him so far)
I heard some Jazzy Jeff cuz he released a jazzy house compilation not long ago, and I love the ultramagnetic MCs and Kool Keith (not all his stuff though)
Lately I've heard the new Edan, which is good but not THAT good imo, and I love the Lord Quas. What do u think of them ?

awol one's speakerface and self titled albums will change your life (and im not being overly dramatic)
jazzy jeff is old school and he is a philly native (where i currently reside) - kool keith is great is small doses, his sex styles album is great...
edan is weird - he has a couple of AMAZING tracks but the others are sorta...filler i guess is how i would describe them...who knows - i had lord quas somewhere and i cant seem to find that...i was anxious to hear it, and POOF - i hate the new dangerdoom cd...its terrible
(im in the process of moving apartments so my music and stuff is all over the place)
do yourself a favor and grab some awol one stuff, start with the two aforementioned...if youve never heard it i consider aceyalone's "a book of human language" to be the best hip hop album of all time - busdriver's "fear of a black tangent" was my pick for best album of this year (indie anyways) - alias & ehren's "lillian" is beautiful - doubt you can get much of their stuff but sacred hoop are amazing...
i could go on for years...

bit of warning...awol one has a very unconventional style and at first you may not like it...i encourage you to listen closer and be patient though...the rewards are better than waiting for a hot girl to go down on you
zing!

get some Non Phixion if you want to hear some rappers that would probably shoot your grandma.
kool keith puts out alot of stuff, check into his history and aliases and decide which you like best. he was also a member of ultramagnetic mc's, whose first album came out in '86 and is lends itself to the rap world because as this website says:
"It was really the first record to ever feature such an outworldly and complex approach to rhyming, with Kool Keith being largely responsible for this new style of rap.
It featured what was to be some of the most innovative production ever heard, thanks to Ultra member, Ced-Gee - probably one of the most underrated and least talked about producers in hip-hop music. NOTE: he was not only the man behind a very good chunk of Ultra's best material but also played a very big role in the production of BDP's "Criminal Minded", another classic hip-hop album.
Most importantly, it introduced us to the Ultramagnetic MC's, one of the craziest, strangest, wildest, and most brilliant hip-hop groups EVER. "

non phixion is garbage...in my humble opinion
kool keith releases album every 4 months cause he spends all his royalties in minutes...have you ever heard his freestyles? they are f*&king great...he gives up on rhymes and just starts counting...one time i heard him get up past 100...hahaha

another...shit these things keep coming outta nowhere...
no i.d. - accept yourself and be your own (or some gay preachy title like that...dumb shit)
amazing album from the guy who made common's beats when common was good...
this fucker fetches serious money on ebay...which is weird...wish i had bought stacks of it back when it came out...no one heard of it but me for years, or so it seemed
