i've been on a biggie kick for the past couple of weeks. otherwise, go for odd future. they're kinda "edgy", but it's less for shock value and more for fun. gambino is real good as well; you can't go wrong with his old shit, that's the best part. i'd also say j. cole; take a stab at the album born sinner. it's hip hop, but it's good as fuck.

Wu-Tang Clan is pretty much epic I think you'll enjoy Wu Tang forever also. I can back up >>544389357 's claim on Rakim. You might wanna listen to GZA's Liquid Swords. I'll write more if I get to remember something worthy

Flatbush Zombies

OP, Give Doris a chance. Cool beats and really good wordplay.

>>544388648
Big L - flmboyant, casualties of a dice game, street struck, anything off of his first album.

immortal Technique - The 4th Branch, the Prophecy, Dance With The Devil, Obnixious

Lantana - All Hustle No Luck, Can't Speak on Yall.

Slick Rick - childrens story

>>544388648
>>544390446
Also Raekwon's Only Built For Cuban Linx is worth listening in my opinion

>>544388648

Das EFX, Run DMC and Naughty By Nature are quite good.

>>544391075
I don't dickride OF. But you have called anyone listening to modern rap a faggot. OF mostly is eh, but denying Earl's talent is exactly what a hipster faggot "Old hip hop head" would do.

>>544391289
I called anyone who listens to current Kanye, Lil Wayne, Kendrick, Ab Soul, or OF a faggot.

I wouldn't call myself an expert but I listen to these when I play basketball

Nas
GZA
Big L
Dom Kennedy
Del tha funkee
Tony Gardner
Freddie Gibs
Madlib
Captain Murphy

>>544391289
of is good. i respects earls lyrics. but he is a fucking bitch. he always complains about his fans, like fuck you bro, your fans are the reason your famous you fucking cunt. god dammit i hate him as a person.

If you want to listen to rap that isn't just about bitches, money and drugs then it's pretty hard to come up with artists.
Good beats, lyricism and hooks? Here are a few albums that I really enjoyed:
YG-My Krazy Life
Freddie Gibs- Pinata
Schoolboy Q- Oxymoron
Pusha-T - My name is my name
G.O.O.D. Music- Cruel Summer
A$AP Rocky- Long Live ASAP (listen to Suddenly, its great wordplay and the hook at the end makes the song)
A$AP Ferg - Trap Lord

try some grime and also listen to people like p money, kano, giggs, devlin, dizzee rascal ,

what do you think of these?

>>544388648
Listen to all of Good Kid m.A.A.d City.
Great album.

>>544391604
pinata is the only album you listed with good beats, the rest are just mainstream trap casio keyboard shit (minus like 2 decent beats on MNIMN)

>>544388648
Danny Brown, Oncue, SOL, Tyler the Creator.

Mostly just listen to Oncue because he's awesome.

Listen to army of the pharoes and from there you can branch out to see which individual artist you like from the group. I prefer celph titled and king syze

Immortal Technique is another one good you like word play. A lot of his stuff is conspiracy theories and killing people. But it's interesting and his actual skills as a writer and lyricist are really impressive.

Old school: Inspectah Deck - Resident Patient

New school: any of lil ugly mane's mixtapes

>not having run the jewels as the only album on your playlist

>>544388648
Kendrick Llamar is some good hip hop, if you like some dirty nigger rap then drill music (Chief Keef, Lil Durk etc) Schoolboy Q is dope, 2Pac, Eminem and so on

>>544388648
I'm also a big EDM fan so I hope I can give some good suggestions.

Killer Mike, specifically the albums R.A.P. Music and Run the Jewels, however R.A.P. Music has a few tracks with the "complaining" that you seem to dislike, but not the "my bitch suck my dick then left" complaining. The guy that makes his beats also does EDM, and even does a verse or two on some songs, a lot of verses in Run the Jewels.

MF Doom

Common, has a lot of hit or miss songs.

Earl Sweatshirt, but I didn't care for a lot of his new album. His lyrics can be good but there isn't much energy, things can be pretty monotone sometimes.

Nujabes

Outkast

Shabazz Palaces

Das Racist

The Cool Kids

>>544391075
>anon mentions a single member of OF and mentions he is a good lyricist
>dickride Odd Future like they're the greatest thing to happen to hip-hop.
It is like you can't even read.

also, anything by Gang Starr will give you a good idea of what a good MC is (Guru) as well as what a good DJ can do (Premier)

So what's the most badass rap you can find? I have no idea where to start that's why Im asking.

Raping about drugs, rape, murder, kill white people and etc. I've tried some Ice-T before and he's pretty good

G-Eazy

His album is dropping in 2 months and he'll probably explode as a result of it.

>>544392410
I know the feel, was listening to it way too much, but for some reason I just can't get enough of it.
>those El-P beats
>those Killer Mike Verses

>>544392539
Listen to Sarah and Troncat by Tyler, the Creator. Mos of those songs are about rape.

>>544390760
best rapper out of europe

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGlEen-WAtw

One of the only rappers who can flow for 7 minutes straight without talking about pussy and money.

Slum Village, J Dilla Era. Nice place to start really. Fantastic Vol. 2.10, off iTunes is a nice record to bump. Good luck anon.

Yeah they're pretty mainstream, and def not all bangers but I'd hardly qualify them as trap casio keyboard shit. Merely stating albums I enjoyed though, I know they aren't for everyone.

>>544392650
Aesop Rock's None Shall Pass is a cool rec too.

Anon how do you feel about Killer Mike's verse on Snappin & Trappin offa Stankonia?

Odd future is the best thing to have happened to rap today. They are better than any Eminem, 2pac, or anything else that you could state. So don't even try.

I don't listen to DG really, it was more based on the stuff he mentioned. Their lyrics are mental.

Chance the rapper is awesome. Any feature he is on he does better than the artists and his mixtapes are the best
