FinerWoman10-A-91, your post was on point and very well-put.
Did y'all know that Talib Kweli and Mos Def made an album together under the name Black Star? It, IMO, is a classic record. I think it was released in like '97, and I still, to this day, wear it out.
Royce da 5'9 is tight Ideal, his song "Boom" is cool to me. He needs to stop trying to promote himself as Eminem's protege and stand on his own...he has enough talent to do so.
Whoever likes underdround hip hop should check out the first Soundbombing compilation.
Some more artists who are underrated are:
- N'Dambi
- Pru,
and even to a lesser degree, India.Arie. She doesn't get enough credit for her songwriting and the fact that she plays the acoustic guitar...no small feat.
