-Mos Def
-MF Doom
-OutKast (ATLiens and Aquimini)
-Masta Killa (from Wu Tang)

Anything produced by J. Dilla..

Alot of good suggestions in here..

Wow, I don't have to do fuck all, since most of the shit I like has been listed. Still, I have some suggestions:

- Lyrics Born
- Anything on the Definitive Jux record label
- go to www.adultswim.com and see if you can still find any of their collabos. They actually have good shit.
- DangerDoom
- Lupe Fiasco
- Jurassic 5
- Dilated Peoples
- Breakestra (it's actually funk, but they have rap in some of their songs)
- Ozomatli (hip hop, latin and rock fusion, pretty good shit)

For more mainstream stuff:

- AZ
- Nas (Illmatic, Stillmatic and beyond. I sorta suggest you ignore most of his stuff between Illmatic and Stillmatic)
- Jay-Z ( all of his stuff, but get as many remixes of the Black Album as you can)
- Busta Rhymes
- Snoop Dogg (really, just Doggystyle, Tha Doggfather, Tha Last Meal and Paid tha Cost to Be da Boss)
- LL Cool J

I would download Dangermouse's remix of the Black Album by Jay-Z. Although I presume you would already have the Grey Album and if you don't......WTF

Its like one of my favourite albums.

You know, Meth & Red put out Blackout! 2 recently... AND IT'S FUCKING AMAZING.

Gonna need to check that one out for sure.

While RDD is asking for suggestions, I'll piggy back on top of his requests.

People, give me some good, early 90's G-Funk albums.

I've already got "The Chronic," and "Death Certificate," and will eventaully get Snoop's "Doggystyle," so give suggestions of other albums of this subgenre that are worth checking out.

Gonna re-iterate here that everybody should listen to B. Dolan. He's the co-founder of Strange Famous Records with Sage Francis and very few seem to know who he is, even those who dig Sage.

He just dropped a free mixtape. http://www.urb.com/permalink/6658/B.-Dolan--House-of-Bees-Vol.-1-(Exclusive-Download).html Download that shit.

Really? I was let down, and I love almost everything WTC affiliated. Blackout! 1 was fucking murder, every single track. Blackout! 2 definitely has some skippable tracks in my opinion, which is a great let down for me personally.

Props for introducing me to B.Dolan good stuff.

Found this live video of Dolan doing his "Open letter to JT" live in New London.
