The Rap & Hip-Hop Recommendation Thread

i'm gonna make a request for recommendations since i honestly have been ignoring hip hop since about 2009-2010 or so and it seems like a few of you have kept on top of it.

i don't care if it's mainstream or underground or whatever my only qualifier is that it has to sound good and also nothing too fruity like drake. not to sound like a homophobe or whatever but i don't like soft rap music like that it just feels like a contradiction to me.

so yea.. what i like the most is 90's east coast grimey rap music like bcc, mobb deep, wu tang, etc. i also like g-funk just not quite as much and i also like outkast (first 3 albums) as well just not quite as much. same for 90's atcq/de la soul/the roots/digable planets/pharcyde/[insert 'conscious' (see: pussy) rap group here]. i also like more modern southern trap**** like carter 2 era/mixtape wayne and whatnot but i know you guys hate that ****. it's nothing mind blowing as far as creativity goes but it's decent music to me which is all that matters at the end of the day. i can tolerate some underground **** just not if it's too awkward or whatever. this is decent to me:

but this is not:

(sorry goofle)

so yea... what you guys got for me?
