anticipation

I would say none of those rappers would be worth adding, considering most if not all of them would immediately be eliminated in the first tie. They would be horrible additions for this forum as well because the majority of us know and appreciate good hip hop fairly well. My suggestions would be One Be Lo, Proof, Phonte, Elzhi, Murs, Books (Skoob) and/or Dray, Posdnuos, any of the Hiero crew, etc.

Saw Aceyalone, Abstract Rude, and Myka 9 playing a show in San Francisco. Pretty small joint. About 100 people total. Smoking out back behind the club, Myka and Acey come out. We started up a smoking circle with about 10 people besides Acey and Myka. I'm way more of a Myka fan but Myka was swamped in conversation. Acey and I got to talking where nobody else was really payin attention and he asked me what *I* felt like he should do next, or if I had any ideas... What a question... I had to do a "Well, everything you put out is dope, and you obviously know how to not get stuck in one style... you know how to switch it up, so just keep doing you bro" /fist pound /pass blunt

If you feel like they need to be up there, I figure it could be considered...I'm sure.

I hit Murs already but yeah, yeah

Hiero Crew: best contenders could be Opio, Tajai, Casual, A-Plus

I see 119...

hmm...

MC Frontalot, Scroobius Pip, The (guy from the) Streets, Mac Lethal, Warren G, Keak Da Sneak, Vast Aire, Fatlip of The Pharcyde, and... Dälek

Don't be an a$$hole. Hip-hop has room for everybody's tastes. Don't just say that I "don't appreciate good hip hop fairly well" like the rest of you just because we have differing opinions on artists. Isn't the whole point of this thread to open up new avenues of hip-hop to other members and discuss our points of view on why we like Artist A over Artist B? Don't be so dismissive and rude. We're all here for the same reason. And I would gladly replace a few from the original list of 80 with the ones I just suggested.

**** it, 128 artists, you guys submit your PM's to me of artists you think I've overlooked, I'll add another 48 and we'll get this going then.

Won't be drawing another tie tonight as I'm only stopping by whilst my tea's cooking before getting back on it.

The draws for the first 80 have already been done, send me another 48 names (MC's not groups) and I'll add them to the draws. Please read the list first, no repeat suggestions!!

With that number of competitors we may be finished this by 2015

Thom Yorke

Aceyalone - 7
Diabolic - 1

Franco Pepe Kalle

maackycant, you got good intentions but see everyone is whining already. The thing is that Hip Hop has always been overlooked. I mean there is still good rap music. It is not like hip hop is dead. It is not but sadly the whacky rappers have been getting too much attention and the very good rappers don't get any resepct. I remember when I used to be a huge hip hop addict, I saw just constant great records. I think Hip Hop is better than Rock music.

The problem with Franco Pepe Kalle is that he is a unpredictable character. There is surprising info about this man. You think he only likes Franco and Pepe Kalle but when you find out that he hears other artists, you are shock.

Girls are the sexy thing that God created.

Important to notice FPK.

I wanna see Franco spit some bars.
