What's up all, here's my situation. I used to be way into hip hop a couple years ago; ATCQ, Black Sheep, Common, The Roots, Madlib, The Pharcyde, whoever I could get my hands on, I'd rock till my taste for rap pretty well faded away, mainly because so much modern rap is just terrible and I was growing sick of searching so long to find an older (90s/80s) rapper that I liked. Anyway, I'm starting to get into rap again, but a lot more on the chill side now than before. Here's some of the things I've picked outta my playlist..

YouTube - Curren$y - Pilot Talk - Breakfast
YouTube - Blue Scholars - Sagaba
YouTube - Tobacco Road - Common Market
YouTube - Real Hip Hop 6: Brown Skin Lady by Black Star
YouTube - People Under The Stairs - San Francisco Knights
YouTube - Charizma & Peanut Butter Wolf - Methods

But yeah, i'm just looking for a lotta rap that has this same kinda vibe. I haven't necessarily tried too hard to find it, but then again, I've been really pleasantly surprised by a lot of the rap I've found (ie. I didn't know Currensy was good until I picked up his latest album Pilot Talk out of curiosity last week, and i've been bumping it since). Anyway, anybody have music like this? Thanks.
