The Hip Hop/Rap Thread

Honestly, my favorite artist based on lyrics is Nas. I still haven't seen anyone that has topped him.

My favorite group would have to be Do or Die, especially "Picture this" album. I'm a fan of old school hiphop (Pharcyde, etc.) and I can't get enough of it. I do like some mainstream, but I also like the underground artists. Such as Saigon. (Saigon & Nas - War is a good example) Most of the mainstream artists though drive me up the wall...such as Kanye West.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I always thought Nas had a good style and I think he shows it off best in Illmatic.

Illmatic reminded me of hiphop somehow. I also liked the "It was written" album. Very nice.

Look for Do or Die! You have to remember "Do you wanna riiiiiide in the back seat of a caddy.." Money Flow, Po Pimpin, Still Po pimpin, and Paper Chase were my favorite tracks.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
