hey guys, im looking for some new hip-hop and was hoping could help me out.

Here are the hip-hop albums I own thus far -

Cannibal Ox- Cold Vein
Nas - Illmatic
Wu Tang Clan - 36 Chambers
Immortal Technique - Revolutionary Vol 1 & 2

As you can see, its a short list, and Im looking to expand upon it. What would be some good artists/albums for me to check out?

Whats up guys, seems like i havent been here in years. Good to see the locals are still keepin it real and keepin the thread alive. So how is everyone, h, D00m, Dr, Deck, DB (nice track and vid homie), Phat, P and the rest. What have you guys been up to?
I've been working hard and also fixing up our new house out in the country, havent really had much time to post but hopefully i can spend a bit more time on KMC in the foreseeable future. Still lovin hip hop but i havent peeped anything new since that new Ali joint. Been mostly listening to dudes like Mos, The Roots, Supa, J-Live, Common, Can Ox and Cunninlyguists in between other genres. Still following the NBA religiously, D00m we have to have a catch up on all things hoops bro. Still hittin that 😮‍💨 to.
Anyway i'll check in later and chat with you guys, i just wanted to drop by before i was placed on a KMC milk carton or some shit.

Peace. 😮‍💨

Glad to hear from you brother. Glad you're alive and well. Congrats on the new crib. We definitely ahve to catch up on hoops man. How do you like Marion and Barbosa for your boy Kobe? haha. Hey man, I can dream can't I? That would be great tho. Especially since you're a Suns hater! THEY WERE ROBBED

Anyway, hope to see you around. and u better be ready for fantasy ball! Ya hear?

You should chime in from time to time. We need more folks who know their hip-hop.

Nice. I'm a big Tribe fan and I enjoy D Prez and Del as well.

Yeah, I love Q-Tip's voice. No matter what he's signing, it sounds funky and fresh.

Meh. You got me all hyped up to hear that, but his verse wasn't even the strongest on that track, imo. He'll never be what he was, he's taken a massive step back and become too obsessed with his street cred, it seems.

Australian hip-hop; new to me. Good song, awesome video:

YouTube video

these guys are pretty good, you cant really hear waht they're saying or the beat on the link but if you get a chance you should download their album. also australians by the way.

request: does anyone have the instrumental for Busdriver- Imaginary Places?

Everybody is loving the new Aesop but it'd didn't sound that amazing to me. but then again I haven't really given it a good listen yet. the jury is still out for me.
