There's your answer right there. Stop listening to this over-commercialized, gangbanger bullshit. That song that was linked earlier in this thread by Soulja Boy is a good example of garbage. Seriously there is a plethora of underground hip hop out there that is way better than that. Check out De La Soul, Dilated Peoples, Mos Def, Atmosphere, Binary Star, Blackalicious, Jurassic 5, Eyedea & Abilities, Jedi Mind Tricks. There's tons more than just those I listed.
I don't really know if The Roots fall into the underground category, but check them out as well. They're one of my favorite hip hop groups.
