There are plenty of good talented artists who are in mainstream. And any real hip hop fan isn't listening to Soulja Boi anyways.

Don't we have at least 5 of these threads already? Blue & Exile.

Who cares? Stop being such a bitch. This forum never sees activity anyway.

My point was you said name more unknown artists. But 99% of what I saw were some of the biggest names out there. Not attacking you just was hoping to steer your thread in the right direction.

Yeh, just pointing that we have a bunch of identical threads. :rolleyes:

There's like one other thread on underground rappers, boohoo.

As far as hip-hop artists who really don't receive the credit their due I would definitely say Digable Planets. They had a hit with Cool Like That 15 or so years ago and then sorta fell off of everyone's radar, but Reachin' and Blow-out Comb are two of the best hip-hop albums I can think of.

ProggyMan 07-29-2008 10:56 PM

Well, Blow Out Comb's good and all, but I don't think it's the classics Reachin' is.

I Like Blow Out Comb better. Its not as accessible as Reachin', but the beats are extraordinary especially considering the time period.
