Agreed.
I like the old stuff by Nas/Pac/Biggie/Mobb Deep/Outkast, but now they either dead or crap.
Wu Tang/The Pharcyde I like a lot, but they haven't done anything in ages.
And my favorite mainstream rapper ever who didnt turn crap, Ice Cube, naturally had to go and retire.
here's a list of music videos of MF DOOM

"no, no, Zach de La Rocha has some good rhymes, but he is not a pure rapper"
Pure rapper? Meaning he was in a Rock band? Hmm. I take it you haven't heard his tracks with people like Cypress Hill and KRS-One. DJ-Shadow and people like that then? He's a Hiphop rhymer.
He has some good rhymes. He has mostly excellent ones. Read the lyrics to "Maria" or "Calm Like A Bomb" and we'll discuss more.
Most rappers that try to get political just say "**** Bush" and then some other BS. Zack (with a K) tells you why he is saying what he is, what's wrong with the country and what is going wrong. The injustice in the world. He doesn't make a pseudo-political/intellectual comment and leave it.
"Dre
Snoop
Eminem"
Hahahahaha. Funny. No wonder you created a free yayo thread. You're a Shady Records groupie.
