Man I didn't expect to run into a real hip-hop head here. My humblest apologies if I offended you IC3. Hip-hop is indeed my life. The only reason I might be more into it than you is because I'm an emcee as well and I do my own work and I know how hard it is to gain a following when you kick real rhyms. You wouldn't happen to emcee too would ya? If so thats fuckin awesome man. I too listen to all the emcees you've mentioned and Wu-Tang and The Roots are my two favorite hip-hop crews. See a person who listens to the hip-hop I like to listen to is such a rare find these days so I usually just assume that they don't and all they listen to is crap and they know absolute jack about it. Most of the time I'm correct and I'm like well he's really good and if you like him you'll probably like "so and so" and most times they do and start checkin em out. So I stand corrected here and mature enough to admitt my ignorance and the fact that I may have been an asshole. If ya wanna know some of the guys I listen to hit me up on the IM sometime. I think it's in my profile but if it's not you can just send me a private message n I'll let ya know and see if you listen to em or not. I agree a lot of them suck even in the underground but I don't pay them attention it's the ones that are good that are unknown whose situation vex's me. Yes not all underground is good for example Cash Money were underground just a few years ago. But anyways get at me yo. I also check out underground artists one
www.ughh.com Cool forums n what not but most people just go to check out the singles section and buy CD's from there. It's got a lot of good stuff (and a lotta bad haha)
Asta!!
