If you want thinking man's hip hop but very groovy and funky and modern without all the posing I highly recommend: Sweatshop Union. Put "Don't be afraid" in your ear and I think you'll like it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wibB56iC61o[^]

I'm not the one who down-voted you, but I just don't get it. :sigh:
Hip-op (hip operation - he's an orthopaedic surgeon). Oh never mind, perhaps it's some baggy trousered shaggy wannabe who downvoted it.

The two terms "hip-hop" and "artist" are mutually exclusive.

Pretty much. Hmmm. I used to listen to them before I met my fiancee. :omg: that was almost 6 years ago. Time seems to be accelerating.

Ummm - Public Enemy[^]? I also like Ice-T, Cypress Hill, some Beastie Boys (I love this album[^]) and NWA. On the other hand, I'm just as happy listening to this[^] or this[^], so you might want to take that with a pinch of caution :-)

Or your audience is dim. Sometimes you have make a joke just for yourself, too. (By the way, I'm not saying the other guy was dim for not getting it.)

:) It's very catchy. They have a lot of other good stuff as well. Oddly enough I found out about them watching The L Word when it was used in an episode.

*snap* that was the limb breaking off - there is no such thing as a good hip-hop artists, they live in the same audio garbage bin as rap artists.

All the previous posts have been about gangsta rap, not hip-hop. DJ Format produces great hip hop. Also, try Jurassic 5 - it's not about b!tches and guns, but some quite cool lyrical skills. Then there's Pharcyde, who are in a similar vein. Also, some Jay Z and some Kanye West is good, although the pair of them stray too much towards gangsta rap for my liking.

My mate's dad. He's a surgeon. Oh wait, he's a hip-op artist. [Mod]Oh come on. Who didn't like this? It's a classic ;P .[/Mod]

Pete, I got it. Of course, that doesn't necessarily mean it's funny. I like puns, much to the disgust of well, everyone around me. I feel this overwhelming urge to share them.
