Anyone into it? I bought Atmosphere's "God Loves Ugly" a while back and recently rediscovered it. I forgot how beautiful it is, it's truely great lyrically and rhythmically. I'm also quite into Del Tha Funkee Homosapien and Unkown Prophets. I used to visit Emceebattles.com and watch this guy by the name of Eyedea just rip shitty rappers apart with such lines like "MC's like you shouldn't even start shit/i'll buy you a new outfit but i won't go to Target" (that's not word for word mind you). I found out this Eyedea has an album and i'm downloading it, so far it's great. I respect indie-rap because it's original and usually lyrically superior than the newest Bently blingin' phenomenon on TRL. |

underground hip-hop is definitely great. The Living Legends (the Grouch, Murs, 3MG, etc.) are great. The stuff on the radio's shite. |
||||||||
|

|
|
yeah, living legends are great |
||||||||
|

Among my faves in my collection are Sage Francis, Mr Lif, Cannibal Ox, El-P, Roots manuva....etc. |
||||||||

|
|
ah.. nice, nice! ive been listening to cannibal ox almost non-stop lately |

indie hip-hop! i lurrrrrve it!!! there's a hell of a lot of good stuff coming from my end of the pond (ie. Canada): Buck 65, Sixtoo, the whole of the Peanuts & Corn crew Atmosphere are practically underground legends. 'Overcast' from 1997 is a classic! 'The Lucy Ford EPs' is a must buy also. anything on Def Jux is a must (yes, yes. Cannibal Ox, El-P, etc. but please, homies, let's not forget Aesop Rock!) and it would be a crime not to mention Kool Keith! if you wanna get into more good stuff along these lines, i highly recommend going to the following site: and checking out their reviews section. |

oh yeah! and the Anticon crew too! (Sole, Doseone, Alias, Restiform Bodies, cLOUDDEAD, etc.) |

btw, Eyedea releases stuff through Rhymesayers Entertainment, which is run by Slug of Atmosphere. good compilations to get a hold of if you don't have them already: Anticon Presents: Music For The Advancement of Hiphop (tracks by all the indie hip-hop heavyweights: Buck 65, Sixtoo, Eyedea, Slug, Sole, Alias, etc.) Anticon: Gigasingle (same sort of superb content as the one above) both volumes of Def Jux presents. |

i like atmosphere but it's like emo-rap anyways. yeah i don't have much to say i guess. i don't dig el-p's flow as much as his production. at all. you guys should check out mf doom |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mf doom is real good. el-p's flow is an aquired taste. i go through stages where i can't get enough of fan dam. but, his production is tight as hell. aceyalone is pretty good too... kinda wears thin pretty quick though. |

i've only heard a few things by motion man, but, what i've heard i have really liked. i'd check him out if i wasn't a poor sumbitch right now. |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
man don't get me started on "aquired taste" again |
||||||||
|
|

fuck hiphopinfinity.com everytime i order stuff there it comes cracked and broken, takes too long and their prices are higher then others. the bestest place is ugsmag.com . I always get stuff within 2 days, never cracked and they always add nice stickers... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm into this kind of stuff as well. grouch / etc Just started getting into Murs stuff... + There's good UK indie hip hop on lowlife records. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
yeah i agree with all you guys, any hip hop (or "rap") is great as long as it's done by a white people. |
