Hiphop and rap fans?

SHOW YOURSELVES, and the first one of you to say some **** like Lil Wayne, I swear. **** that noise.

Cunninlynguists and OutKast are by far my favorite. If I had to pick just one song to listen to for the rest of my life it would be ATLiens. I like Common and J. Cole a lot too.

I just started getting into hip hop like four years ago, but I've listened to a lot since then and now consider myself to be a pretty big hip hop head.

This is my rough top ten favorite rappers:
Andre 3000
Nas
Black Thought
Ghostface Killah
Common
Del tha Funkee Homosapien
Big Boi
Pusha T
Curren$y
Pharoahe Monch

Liking a lot of these newer artists too. Stuff like Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Big K.R.I.T., Mikey Rocks, Freddie Gibbs, Childish Gambino, Danny Brown

I like some. Rap and hip hop are pretty easy to miss with me.

I don't dislike the genres, but I put absolutely no effort into listening to them. In fact, I'm not sure why I'm posting in the first place.

A Del the funkee homosapien fan? hell yeah, if i ever listen to mr. bob dobalina i have to listen to it like 10x.

We got some pretty similiar tastes, Curren$y/Alchemist's Covert Coup was definitely my album of the year for 2011

I'd be fine with rap except some of the songs make no sense. I'm sure if I sat there and listened for a while, I might understand some of them.

^^ I liked all of Curren$y's output last year. I don't think it even comes close to Pilot Talk I+II though.

My album of last year hip hop wise was The Roots' Undun. Kendrick Lamar's Section.80 was close, though. I seriously think that dude could become the next big thing.

I don't really care that much for Hip-Hop, but as for rap I listen to MC Frontalot somewhat often. I really dislike "gangsta rap," though. Too homophobic, self-centred, and sexist for my tastes.

My list of favorite rappers includes:
MC Lars
Bomani Armah
Outkast
Beastie Boys
Fat Boys
Run-DMC
...Weird Al...

To blow yo mind with some instrumental hip-hop, I'd also suggest Lindsey Stirling.

And if that's not a sufficiently insane range of styles, then...well, I don't know how to finish that sentence.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

I like hiphop a lot, but rap is hit or miss for me. I think Kool Keith has some great stuff, and so does Del/Dr. Octagon. Also a fan of Saul Williams and the Beastie Boys. Used to be really into the Beasties, but I prefer their raw sound on So Whatcha Want to the more recent stuff they've done. Anybody that moonlights with the Prodigy is probably going to get on my good side, in general, though;
