If you want mainstream...

Nas
Outkast (ATLiens & Aquemini)
Rakim
Wu Tang
Jay z (Blueprint, Reasonable Doubt)
Mos Def
Talib Kweli
Common (Yes, they are all mainstream)

Underground shit...

Atmosphere
Aesop Rock
Brother Ali
Louis Logic
Jedi Mind Tricks
Canibus
Immortal Technique
Sage Francis
Del
Masta Ace
Little Brother
Murs
Ugly Duckling
Wordsworth...

just to name a few. I'm more into underground than mainstream mainly because it appeals to me as the better half of hip hop. Just my 2 cents.

jedi mind tricks - violent by design
atmosphere - god loves ugly

murs - 3:16

those are some good albums to start with.

Ghostface Killah
he spits nothing but fire my freind.

buy all his albums motherfucker (imwstupid

get ironman or pretty toney first, then when u finally understand what the fuck hes saying get supreme clientele (which has his most "colourful" wordplay to date)
Try downloading Ghostface feat jadakiss - run or ghostface feat Styles P & sheek louch - metal lungies first tho, shit is insane (@)

oyea pick up wu tang clan 36 chambers and there double album wu tang forever, u wont be dissapointed.

If u want some southern shit download T.I - Trap Muzik

album is a classic...only haters will disagree (arguingsm

Also pick up Cormega's albums (former freind of nas) if u heard nas call him out on destroy and rebuild you'll see what i mean. u should proberly get the special editon with his classic albums the realnesss and The true meaning, sum nice lyrics with top production. Get the testament if u can too.

u cant go wrong my little freind

[Luis T.I.]
