Exactly. Even if it doesn't work 100% of the time it's original enough where it keeps me interested, which hasn't been happening for most new rap lately.

Really outstanding production too.

I most strongly recommend at this moment:

Themselves - It's Them

Busdriver - Imaginary Places

Alias - Divine Disappointment

Blue Scholars - Commencement Day

DoseOne - Etherial Downtime

Sole - Shoot the Messenger

If you're after some emotional, intelligent, and dark hip hop, you really need to listen to Kno's newest album Death Is Silent (2010) cause it's hip hop album of the year material, yo.
