Already mention J5. Also, I don't really like KRS-ONE. All of the songs of their's (or his?) that I've heard always have them screaming. Like that one Lugz commercial song and the "Hush" song in THPS3. God that got so annoying I had to turn it off.

2Pac is my fav, I also like a few songs from Snoop, Dre, Richie Rich and Too Short. Biggie is aight at times, but 2Pac blows him away imho.

great song

 

[killface]

Definately stay away from the poppy crap like Juvenile, Ludacris,
The only problem with getting into rap is that you may have a difficult time if you get full albums. Start with:

Anything By TC Islam
Stevie Hyper D - Try to find Kenny Ken and Stevie Hyper D at Mach 1 Jungle set
Tupac - Life Goes On
The Roots - "You Got Me" off of "Things Fall Apart"
"If I get Locked up Tonight" by Eminem (it's pretty short), it will completely change your respect for his abilities.
3-6 Mafia - Ass and Titties ------Just kidding

 

A couple people mentioned J5, how could I forget??? Download the song "Quality Control" (not part II) and tell me you don't love them.

 

[aznspeed]

can someone do me a big favor?
i'm looking for a rap song where the rapper
talks about life and death in a psychological perspective.
first he raps
then he plays guitar and sings deeply
then he raps
then he plays guitar and sings deeply...
i don't remember the words though...
but it is a wicked song...
sounds like the rapper is not that old maybe early 20's...

if u pm me the artist and song i will greatly appreciate it. Thx!
