When on earth are the DOPE MC'S gonna actually get their due!?!?! You stupid ass hip hop listeners need to start listenin' to 'em and findin' ways to get their records so that labels will see that people actually like "quality hip hop" and stop signing 50 Cent-like rappers to make "In the Club"-like tracks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's a list of MC's for you people that listen to rap but not "good rap"... listen to them and see what ya'll think................. SOME ARE SEMI-UNDERGROUND BUT JUST GIVE 'EM A LISTEN!!!!!!!!

-PHAROAHE MONCH

-MOS DEF ***
-IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE ***
-CROOKED I ***
-COPYWRITE ***
-ESOTERIC
-SAGE FRANCIS
-EYEDEA
-JR WRITER ***
-JUICE ***
-ROYCE DA 5'9 ***
-HORSESHOE GAME (CROOKED I'S CREW)

Try that out........ see what ya'll think... BUT PLEASE GIVE THEM A LISTEN!!! THEY DESERVE MORE RESPECT THAN THEY GET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

good thread ... and yeah yall mainstream guys pay too much attention to the beats and not enough on the lyrics... the producers should get more credit then a rapper for putting out a hot track nowadays...

*cough* yeah, sure it needs to get more recognition...

but then, after that, what then?
more people will be listening to it.
meaning, radio stations will gradually begin to play it, then more.
resulting into .....

MAINSTREAM *dun dun dun*

Right?

I don't hate mainstream because it's mainstream... I don't give a f*ck if it's mainstream... actually, it's like sex on 747's cuz I don't give a FLYIN' F*CK...

it's the fact that mainstream is WACK... if that happens and "respectable MC's" are mainstream, then all the better for "mainstream"... I'll be happy cuz people who deserve that money will be receiving it....... not the bullsh*t known as mainstream music today!!!!

SUPPORT THE MOVEMENT!!!!!!!! SHOW FAITH IN HIP HOP!!!!!!!!!

But then.. if they become even MORE popular, the fans will want even MORE music, at a FASTER rate.

& then if they don't take their time, and try to speed it up, they might end up teaming up with others -- resulting into either two possiblilities ; something really good OR some f**king crap.

..what are you talking about? it's a cycle. Do you honestly believe underground turned mainstream entertainers will stay with their grassroots? I think your blinded by your beliefs. absolute power corrupts absolutely, and it goes the same for rappers, too.

what're you talkin' about? Talib Kweli's technically mainstream (though not huge) and he's still rhymin' as conscious as ever... Mos Def made a song dissin' the "machine" on his album (not a MIXTAPE but his ALBUM!)... Pharoahe Monch did the same... Kanye did the same... it happens... even the biggest rapper on the planet rapped ridiculously crazy on his first album... just like he as on his last underground EP (Slim Shady EP)... REALITY CHECK... EMINEM USED SONGS FROM HIS UNDERGROUND EP ON HIS FIRST ALBUM AND STILL SOLD 4 MILLION COPIES....

It's ignorant fans that are killin' it...

A lotta 'em stay in their "grass roots" but develop because they have money and they can't rap about what they used to...

Here's some more REAL HIP HOP (no pun intended) for ya'll.......

Juice - Real Hip Hop (Right Click and Save As)

Crooked I - My Life (Right Click and Save As)

Crooked I - Coast Control (Right Click and Save As)

that should appease ya'll... those are two of the most respect underground cats alive... any hip hop head will say these are two hip hop gods... so start praying and tithing (puttin' money aside to buy/order their albums/mixtapes when they come out)

ya'll really need to listen to what they're tellin' ya'll......... THE RELIGIOUS MOVEMENT IS UNDERWAY!

EDITED:
one more classic underground hit... if you listen to this classic song, don't disrespect it and LISTEN TO EVERY WORD... SICK SICK WORDPLAY... Pharoahe Monch is SICK! Top 5 dead or alive!!!!

Pharoahe Monch - Agent Orange (Right Click and Save As)

Outta the artists you've listed, I've only heard from:

-PHAROAHE MONCH
-TALIB KWELI ***
-MOS DEF ***
-CROOKED I ***
-ROYCE DA 5'9 ***

-de la soul
-roots
-common

Unfortunately, non of my friends are into underground, they're all into mainstream so I have to go pick shit up myself. My bf laughs at me when I get all heated about mainstream music, says i'm too serious about this shit... _dry.gif He just doesn't understand.

Anyhow, when picking out artists to listen to, I'm not all about the hard hitter punchliners as you are. I like conscious artists who put out real content in their music, like their struggles and triumphs, shit that real people can relate to, shit that touches your soul. I'm a bigger Neo-Soul fan than anything else which is why I care more about that. Got any suggestions?

I'ma check out those links and your Xanga later when I get back from school.

I'm from the Bay Area California, and this is who we listen to(underground people, by the way):

-Andre Nickatina(MY FAV tongue.gif ! I Love him!)
-Mac Dre(RiP)
-San Quinn
-JT the Bigga Figga(San Quinn's LiL' bro)
-Keak Da SneeK(white tees & Nikes baby!)
-YukMouth
-Equipto
-E40 tongue.gif !!!
-Da Team
-The Federation
-Mr. Kee
-Frontline(I STILL say MTV Rap Battle cheatted him mad.gif !!!)

there's more, but I can't think of any, my brain's dead. But yeah, we acctually give our underground artists love & play them on the radio! That's wut I live about living in The Bay wub.gif , we try 2 help one another.

thank you for supporting bayarea rap i like most of the people on your list.... also balance and some other guys im forgetting lol... balance preforms with frontline alot and was going to do the mtv battle thing... and i hate to say it but reignman won tongue.gif

and the bay area media plays our shit because we dont have any big name commercial artists... or biggest name alive is probably E40.. lol

pen i see you quoting nas "it's like sex on 747's cuz I don't give a FLYIN' F*CK... " hahah and some of your links are down

and haha at steph for all this logic and stuff... i think that if the underground artists get big they will either dumb down their lyrics to double their dollars or they will become talib kweli esque.... or if they get good producers then they can have a hot track... but i dont see people reciting some complicated verse.... i mean dudes today listen to the beats too much they sing like the in da club beat or the yeah beat before they accually sing the song... i dunno if you understand

anyways you guys should peep this stuff and give it a chance

Some more songs... If it's against the rules then take them down... but im not really advertising, I uploaded these songs myself and theres nothing in it for me.but you can get these songs through me via AIM or YIM if its down.

Blackstar - RE:Definition
http://s17.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1C36BEA...1B7B86E36D5B15A

Keak The Sneak - Untouchable
http://s17.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=A064004...B0A0EA1E9A6FE52

Nas - Breathe Freestyle ohmy.gif
http://s14.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=82B64A6...C4EE69A48451B1B

heres an explaination... the nas frestyle the first verse is listing adjectives white people use when describing black people "kleptomaniac, stevie wonder, entertainmener cedric, etc."... the second verse is talking about people that arent loyal... so you wont take the jayz route and say "just because you dont understand him doesnt mean he dope/it just man you dont understand the bullish he wrote"... haha...

and pen i listened to coast control "im only an mc cause you are what you eat"... haha.. i thought about the mainstream becoming worse thing i disagree... i think that an artist like kanye west.. he is a big artist but i will listen to him before i listen to chingy because kanye has content in his rhymes... if all mainstream would be like that then this post woulndt be necessary... it can be done.. remember 1994?

and this post probably isnt for rock fans.. im thinking more for fans of commercial rap... if you dont like rap you dont like rap thats cool... no need to hear why you dont like rap and whatnot... i dont really care yawn.gif
