There is a lot of great stuff in this scene. Unfortunately it is a case of digging beneath all the garbage that sits on the surface. Hip Hop is not a huge favourite of mine but when a band hit's it stays hit. Give these a listen:

Mos Def
Black Star
Surreal and The Sound Providers
Dalek
The Strange Fruit Project
Roots Manuva
A Tribe Called Quest
Busdriver
The Roots
MF Doom
De La Soul
Marxman
Sage Francis
Count Bass D
Public Enemy

and let me know how you get on.
