Dr. B Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 (edited) DeltronTalib KweliBlack StarrBrotha Lynch HungCommonMF DoomDefinately not underground. It's not on national radio, but it's not underground. They all have huge exposure.Me, I don't really like too much alternative rap. Some of it has its appeal, but I like gritty, raw rap.but since this is an underground thread, check out:Fat Tony - my boy a Houston native is comin upAl-D - Old H-town gangsta but I like all the projects he's doneDJ Screw - His style has exposure but people don't really listen to his tapes outside of Texas. -3 N The Mornin Part I and Part II (blue) are good tapesJ Dawg - A northside rapper comin up with the Swishahouse camp. He isn't on that radio-friendly tip, but aint too different from the rest of _Swishahouse.Big Moe - RIP but check out City Of " "... check out his discography.

Giant Ninja Robot Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 ton of friends are going to see rock the bells. I dont love the lineup though, I'm kinda bummed out. The last few years were way cooler imo. I would still go if it there was like ONE more act that I really really love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giant Ninja Robot Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 I was just thinking about Edan and that he is very much slept on. He was awesome live opening for Lyrics Born and Cut Chemist. Hasn't released an album in quite some time that I know of, I know he produced some of the album Mr. Lif just put out.Edan! - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0MDxRqE-YA...feature=relatedbtw, Busdriver sucked live. I wanted to enjoy him but he was way to frenetic and sloppy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Messiah Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 The king of the underground is Tech N9ne. Best rapper out there hands down. Murs is tight too. Just saw him in concert a few weeks ago. Cool dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No comparison. That's funny that "good" is stretching it when he is the #1 independent act in the country. Last year he was the #3 highest grossing urban touring act behind Jay-Z and Kanye. He sold over one million units independently over 4 albums. The dudes flows are SICK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at souljaboy, lady gaga, chingy, lil wayne, carrie underwood, taylor swift, rascal flatts, the fray, nickelback, creed the list goes on and on and on. They all top the charts, go platinum and sell out stadiums, does that mean they're good artists? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
