Talkin' 'bout that ol skoo' like you ain't kids?
I can dig that. But there's a lot of thoughtful modern rap.
I agree the stuff that sucks get a lot of attention.
I've been digging Atmosphere lately.
I normally like it blacker, but meh, I'm a white boy, after all.

One of my friends said this happened because pimp C died and now there isn't anyone to call out all the dick in the booty ass rappers.

The only new stuff i've found that i like is big krit and run jewels.

Can't speak for them but I'm almost 40.. Ain't a kid. Act like one. Still get ID from time to time too. But, tribe called quest, leaders of the new, blacksheep, etc. Now if I am listening to rap its bay area rap artist. But the old shit.

Atmosphere is cool. Pandora underground hip hop has good artist from time to time too

Rap is alive and well just stay off the radio I'm on some mellow type shit

Watsky, wax, brother Ali, atmosphere type stuff
The other things I personally listen to right now are a lot of modern jazz and They Might Be Giants/Jonathan Coulton. My taste knows no boundaries. Bollywood/Tamil pop? Opera? You name it. There are two types of music. Good, and not as good. See sex and pizza for analogues.

I think the best in the game lately are Immortal Technique, La Coka Nostra and Madchild. The cool thing nowadays is most artists I listen to aren't competing with each other and are actually collaborating with each other. Makes for some sick fucking tunes.
