We need one of these for sure.
Discuss modern and old school rap in this thread. To get the ball rolling, here are my current favorite rappers, in otherwords rappers than are rapping today: (No order) T.I., Lupe Fiasco, Talib Kweli, Jay-Z, Ludacris, Eminem, Nas.
There are some others that could make that list but aren't consistent enough.
You could also swing to the glory days to discuss the likes of Tupac, Bigggie Smalls, Eazy E, Ice Cube etc. etc.
Recent albums:
Blueprint 3 (Jay Z): I just got this. It's alright through my 1st couple of listens. Only 2 songs really stand out to me and that is Empire State of Mind and What we Talkin' Bout . Empire State of Mind is a work of art and I appreciate it more after having visited New York this past summer. On to the Next One is actually one of my favs despite much hate for it.
Upcoming:
Lasers (Lupe Fiasco): I am dying for this album to come out. Lupe has sick flow and is a real lyricist, I can't wait for his latest work, after dropping The cool as his latest album.
So basically just discuss anything related to hip-hop that interests you here.
