92% of teenagers have turned to New school and Pop. Thumbs up this comment if you are part of the 8% that still listen to real music. Don’t let the real hip hop die!!!!11!!

Das Racist – Sit Down, Man http://dasracist.bandcamp.com/album/sit-down-man (rec: sit down, man ft. el-p)

Shut Up, Dude is slightly more enjoyable imo. More memorable tracks like “Rainbow in the Dark“, “Ek Shaneesh“, Shorty Said, Who’s That? Brown!, etc. So much fun on this album :D

Anything on the Stones Throw, Def Jux and Rhymesayers labels is recommendable.

I generally like it when artists are a bit more adventurous in their hip hop endeavours, like what you can find on the Anticon label.

Stuff thats currently in my rotation:

Homeboy Sandman ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9U-HK9d_CzA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxY9et9V9Bo )
Quakers ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNb7DwiklZg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5t72Cjkd8k )
Reks ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oF7AU12LMB0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFz3nmu4xXM )
Kool & Kass ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3W7EqBmcss http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-zpPxfjsMg )

And obviously DOOM forevahhhh … Who else can get Mos Def so crazy about his lyrics: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTBIvIDnnv8&t=1m44s
