The 2 finalists, $hamrock and John Brown were to go to Club Hell or something for the final contest. They had Rugged Man in a devil suit rapping, then he introduced MC Serch to the stage

He's David Banners' dj and for my boys Chapter 13, who Joe Skevis (Skip Coon) raps for..

[FakeLaser]

Oh shit, forgot about Brotha Lynch Hung.

[FakeLaser]

I've been into some turntable shit lately, Cut Chemist and crap like that.

[Kris P Lettus]

P.O.S., if this is considered underground. I know very little about rap.

Does Esham count as underground? He certainly doesn't get much mainstream attention.

[Kris P Lettus]

"Underground" to me is just acts that don't get the mainstream attention they deserve.. That being said, if they did get the mainstream attention, most people would then hate on them for "selling out"..

:-\

[Esoteric]

love that P.O.S. video I once saw him in concert and he was crazy, also Rugged Man is great I heard he was dropping a new c.d. soon and a book about boxing

[mrslackalack]

Rugged Man did Jerichos rap song on the Aggression album several years back.

[mrslackalack]

I know a guy named Lay Lo?? (I believe thats how he spells it) thats up and coming in the underground. His music is pretty good and I heard that he brings the house down at all the places he performs at.

[Esoteric]

Aesop Rock is great I saw him in concert and cant wait for his new album to drop.......anyone here dig Cage or El-P?

[Kris P Lettus]

Give me some track names by these guys..

I got some Aesop Rock but what are some good songs, Supreme??

[Graspbymyself]

Roots Manuva-Too Cold or Swords In The Dirt

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Blackalicious - Powers

They started to get a little mainstream attention but I think it's died down now. Still, Gift of Gab is one of the nastiest lyricists out there today and this song is great.
