Yeah I'm hyped as ****! You know they're out touring together right now...
I hope they come to Europe, because I'm pretty sure that show will be (beat)NUTS!

Tyler The Creator - Yonkers - YouTube

Restoring Poetry in Music - Pyramids in Moscow

Bumpy Knuckles & Statik Selektah - Ambition

Chill Bump - It's Alive ! (Back To The Grain)


Keny Arkana - De l'opéra à la plaine 2 (Clip Officiel)

So I was at a media store last week looking through when all of a sudden I found a genre called Skip Hop. WTF is Skip Hop!?

Then I found this.

Do you have any examples of artists we should check out?
It sounds odd enough to be interesting.

Just sounds like Australians who happen to be making Hip Hop from that description.

On second thoughts, it sounds like a lame parody.

That's the thing, Australian hip hop was just that, not some new name patriotic label. Nor have I ever heard of a requirement "Australian accents only." Most artists here are influenced by American hip hop. I'm still looking for artists online but I can't seem to find any fitting the requirement. Some consider Hilltop Hoods skip hop but they don't rap about beer and food or have a distinctive Australian accent. I used to know a group of boys around my area and they did have a pungent Aussie accent that rapped about vandalism mostly. There was no such genre appearing in stores until recently.

1200 Techniques are pretty good Australian hip hop group btw.

I'll have to go through artists in stores and get back to you.

but no, don't weep.

So, I'm looking for some rap/hip-hop like Egyptian Lover. Suggestions?

This movie soundtrack and Beat Streets movie soundtrack should be close stuff to Egyptian Lover. Makes me wanna bust out some cardboard and do some egg rolls or windmills.

wtf yall know about dilla.

I heard of Haystak before... I was in a deejay pool and got one of his vinyls...

I like the funky gangsta pimp playa track he did you posted called "Dolla"

Here's a track I made with ODB and Big Pun & Slim Thug Acapellas and sampled a chop from a rap battle


OL DIRTY BASTARD FT. BIG PUN - STYLIN ON YOU PROD. by CHANGSTERDJ - YouTube

probably the most sampled song in hip hop that isn't jazz, funk, or soul.

Myka 9 & Factor - Bask In These Rays feat. Astronautalis & Ceschi by Fake Four, Inc. on SoundCloud - Create, record and share your sounds for free

A nice track from Myka 9 & Factor with Ceschi and Astronautalis from the Fake Four Inc. label. Really nice smooth funky beat

Woah Pete that's ****in great. Love hearing new Myka 9!!

I was actually drawn to the track by Astronautalis and Ceschi being on the track, but I definitely need to familiarize myself with Myka 9. You seem to have more authority on the situation than I do, do you have any starting points?

Also shameless plug for both Ceschi and Astronautlis

Korean hip hop

Yes I'm rec ***ing for a while. I'd like some Classic Hip-Hop/Rap recs. Like... Before NWA. Really early style Hip Hop.

That Dabrye was dope.


Not so shameless plug for my buddies.

time to bring real hip hop back
 

my sentiments exactly
SMOKEY ROOMZ Rap Artist is the future of rap (in the UK anyway)
check him out on YouTube

Well colour me intrigued, I just grabbed that album.

Here's some recs for you then. I've bolded the essential one.

Eric B & Rakim - Paid In Full/Follow The Leader
KRS-One - Ghetto Music: The Blueprint of Hip Hop
Slick Rick - Children's Story
Masta Ace - Take A Look Around

forgive me if this question has already been answered but i searched and nothing seems to come up - is there a thread on best rap love song or recommendations on rap love song?

"You Never Know" by Immortal Technique

Nice, glad you liked! I don't think that album will disappoint. He's got Emancipator doing a couple beats, plus he's an enormously talented producer in his own right.

Anyone have any recommendations for some experimental hip hop? I don't mean experimental as in "that guy sometimes raps about sort of odd things", I mean experimental music along the lines of K-the-I??? or Dälek or Shabazz Palaces' weirder moments.

Anyone? :)

According to your Last FM, you somehow managed to miss The Money Store by Death Grips. You NEED that record.
Their newer album NOLOVEDEEPWEB is always well worth the listen.

If you just want the beats, check out Prefuse 73 and check out Jel (J.
Bike For Three! or Buck 65 might fit that criteria.

And this

I already have The Money Store actually, it must be one of the many things that apparently haven't gotten scrobbled when I listened to them. Decent album though for sure.

I'm familiar with all of those already except for the Russian one. It sounds cool though. I'll definitely have to check that one out. Thanks!

I would definitely also recommend Buck 65, specifically his 2005 album Secret House Against the world
