Recommend me some alternative hip hop

[probablyoliver]

in a similar vein to stuff like Busdriver, Aesop Rock, Why? etc. I also like stuff like De La Soul, Handsome Boy Modeling School, A Tribe Called Quest, Gang Starr and stuff like, just yeah, recommend me more stuff, I need more hip hop in my life.

Everyone needs more hip-hop in their life.

Saul Williams

I imagine you would like Cadence Weapon. You should. I recommend "Tattoos (And What They Really Feel Like)" and "Do I Miss My Friends?" in particular.

[probablyoliver]

As soon as Keith posted, I sent him a message recommending him Cadence Weapon. Cadence Weapon is the balls.

I suppose you could consider Kid Cudi alternative hip-hop so I'd recommend him.

Going on the Tribe tip:

Pharcyde

Black Sheep

early Common

Dream Warriors

[TheRossWalker]

I suppose you could consider Kid Cudi alternative hip-hop so I'd recommend him.

After listening to A Kid Named Cudi, no. Just no. Wale's "Mixtape About Nothing", however, is essential listening. Though whether either of them could be considered "alternative" hip-hop is debatable.

This has been pimped so far only by me, and to no response, so I will repimp with the aid of capitals.

NEW LE SAC VS PIP.

I WAS THERE.

KEITH SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE.

IT WAS FUCKING BRILLIANT.

not gonna lie, I spent half that set trying to figure out who was Keith.

Pft, by the time Glastonbury came round that song wasn't even new any more, I heard it a while back at the Roundhouse

There's a second new one as well about Great Britain.
