To the opening poster, I recommend the following accessible, intelligent and catchy albums.

K'naan - The Dusty Foot Philosopher

Blackalicious - The Craft

Aesop Rock - None Shall Pass

CunninLynguists - A Piece of Strange

Dan le Sac vs. Scroobius Pip - Angles

All of the above albums are extremely intelligent, with amazing beats, lyrics and lacking the gangsta fixation of the mainstream bollocks.

As to looking for ugly, dark hip-hop, might I recommend:

Ill Bill - Black Metal

Immortal Technique - Revolutionary Volume 1 (or 2)

Hochii - Bullets Through the Speaker
