i'm on about the real hiphop, like the good stuff, none of this crap that's all in the charts these days.

people like gang starr, trip lee etc.

can you recommend me some songs?

Tupac?

Gang Starr are great, the Guru did a solo album with a load of jazz backings called Jazzmatazz or something similar which was pretty good.

DMX - It's Dark And Hell Is Hot is brilliant in my view, although obviously being DMX it's a little harder hitting and not for everyone

GZA's "Liquid Swords" compilation is good for if you like the darker Wu sound, along with some lighter Wu Tang stuff like Ghostface Killah who's a favourite of mine and Method Man - Tical is just superb

Dunno how you feel about Nas but I personally like nearly everything he's done so pick and choose with him really :P same goes for Chamillionaire but he's nothing similar and god knows what anyone thinks about him these days
