Good mainstream rap?

[Shawn]

I've reciently gotten into rap and I like a lot of what's on the radio. The artists I like are Juvenile, Nappy Roots, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent, and Eminem. The songs I have now are mostly new stuff so I don't mind old stuff too. I got Snoop Dogg's old cd Doggy Style and I like it a lot. Any suggestions on some good songs?

If you don't like rap please don't post. Thanks.

Jurassic 5

Albums: Quality Control, Power in Numbers.

Not really mainstream rap, but they are true Hip Hop...

 

[Nocturnal]

ANYTHING by Atmosphere, Jedi Mind Tricks, Aesop Rock, Hieroglyphics, and LA Symphony.

Good mainstream rap?

Doesn't exist, with the exception of old-school Snoop and Dre. Dig into some of the aforementioned "underground" / "lesser-known" groups, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Exactly. Mainstream = bling bling garbage. Some of the lesser known stuff is fairly decent though.
