This thread is great!
Favorite rappers:
MF DOOM (seriously, it doesn’t get better than this)
Black Thought (criminally underrated)
Freddie Gibbs (his Madlib albums are my fave, but I swear, he could flow over the sound of someone driving a 2002 Civic with 3 flat tires and it’d still bang)
Tyler, The Creator (his flow isn’t on the same level as the others, but for me, as a young millennial, it’s definitely a right-place, right-time thing… I have so many fond memories tied to his music, and just love his production)
John Reuben (self-aware midwestern jewish guy, who leaned into all the gimmicks, always wore his heart on his sleeve, and could always make a crowd jump and smile at the same time. He used to tour through my area a lot, and always brought a live drummer and bassist, so that’s instant praise from me. Super fun guy.
Favorite producers:
DJ Shadow
Madlib
Q-Tip
Dilla
El-P
The Alchemist
Favorite groups:
Tribe
Beasties
The Roots
(I could be content listening to only Madvillainy, Low End Theory, and Paul’s Boutique for the rest of eternity)
