Forums - Music Discussion - Recommend me some good hip-hop

It's my favorite genre of music, but because I don't watch BET, MTV or listen to the radio, it's so hard for me to catch anything new. It seems like all my music is at least 10 years old!

Who are some good modern rappers? I'm looking for folks that have substance in their lyrics; no BS about smoking weed, killing people and disrespecting women three to five minutes at a time. Help a brotha out.

Marky Mark and the funky bunch. They may reunite in the coming months... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/03/mark-wahlberg-music-marky-mark-funky-bunch_n_2801509.html



Not about smoking weed but if a catchy drinking song is your thang. 

Edit: woops



TADS recommended Shad for me and I liked him, despite the fact that I am really not into rap, here:

That one song from The World Ends With You (I jest)

ugh I know what you mean.
Just recently "discovered" Denace who is often confused with Eminem. He's really good as far as I can say.

Just checked him out, very nice! He can be huge commercially if he wants to, because as you said, he definitely sounds like Eminem at some points.

Yeah just type in "Eminem 2013" in YouTube and 90% of the stuff that comes up is Denace lol

Don't know if the uploader don't see the difference or doing it intentionally. Well they want more hits obviously so I guess it's the latter.
