Replying to The Best Shit Out There
Since a lot of people seem to be into underground hip-hop, I decided i'd make a list of what i believe are the best underground artists out there. This is in no particular order and the mcs that made this list are real, they drop rhymes (or not rhymes) of substance, and are not fake-ass like almost all the shit u hear on the radio. These guys are underground to the fullest extent. Anyway, so here it is:
1. Cannibal Ox
2. Buck 65
3. Themselves
4. Sole
5. Nas (on Illmatic anyway)
6. Mr. Lif
7. Edan
8. Aesop Rock
9. Atmosphere (Overcast is the only good album)
10. Aceyalone
11. Alias
12. Antipop Consortium
13. Binary Star
14. Blackalicious (NIA)
15. Busdriver
16. Common (Resurrection)
17. Company Flow (start of the whole underground scene)
18. Cyne
19. Deep Puddle Dynamics (Sole, Slug, Dose, Alias)
20. Del
21. Deltron 3030
22. Eyedea
23. Gang Starr (especially No Need For Alarm)
24. Hieroglyphics
25. J-Live
26. Jedi Mind Tricks (VBD)
27. Kool Keith
28. MF Doom
29. Mobb Deep (The Infamous sort of-a little too gansta for this list but its cool every now and then)
