Hey /mu/. I've never really been into rap, and i think that if i want to develop a global taste in music i need to listen and appreciate all genres, should i start with Eminem ? You're probably laughing as you're reading this, but i'm totally ignorant when it comes to rap artists and i want to listen to real rap, not some made-up trash of a wannabe gangster.

That album is great, really good introductory to hip hop.
Anyone have any good new school suggestons? I'm particularly well-versed in old stuff, but I can't be asked going through all the mumble rappers.

Eminem is to rap as Catdog is to cartoons. It hasn't aged well and you can do better.
