I'm partial to the older hip hop myself, but there's some great modern hip hop, particularly alternative/underground stuff like Madlib, El P, Mos Def, MF Doom and Danger Mouse.
Lil Wayne, 50 Cent and all that stuff is pretty horrible.
Kayne West is overrated, he had a good tune or two, but I hate how processed his vocals are and that seems to be the problem with most modern hip hop and pop music. Not to mention how much of a colossal douchebag he is.
