Som great um... hip hop/r&b/slow rap?

So I am not sure the name of this genre, but both my girl and I love it. Great beats to um...chill to.

Atmosphere
Blackalicious
NB Ridaz
Immortal Technique
Common
Musiq
Erica Badu

Anyone else have any good artists in this genre? I'd love to have some more names

Agreed, I am definitely down with Common and Blackalicious.

I've got a buddy that lives for this shit, I can ask him.

how about Kanye West?

how about Kanye West?

LOL Kanye West is a joke to the hip-hop society, hes horrible... :gay:

KustmAce, try Bobby Valentino...

not to mention Kanye's still on all that "white man keeping me down" bullshit.

i'd recommend you listen to some AZ, Nature, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Saigon, Jedi Mind Trick.

definately Talib. one of the most chill CD's i'll ever listen to. i don't know exactly what you're looking for, less mainstream or more mainstream? something you can relax to, or something with a fast beat?

for me, just chillin, especially with my girl, you can never go wrong with Monica or Aaliyah.

immortal technique is awesome. except that one song, dance with the devil or something like that. it is so messed up i almost deleted it from my comp.

Yall are probably gonna laught, but a slow rapper would be Too Short. I like him personally.

too short is actually pretty good at slow stuff.

one person i forgot to mention was Rappin' 4 Tay. he's out of the bay area. his songs, Problems, from the Dangerous MInds soundtrack is so ridiculously chill. check it out

Glad I'm not the only one. Actually listened to "Get In Where You Fit In" on the way home tonight. "Blowjob Betty" is a classic.

if your okay with no lyrics, DJ SHadow, DJ Cam, this is trippish stuff.

alot of ppl of off anticon, deep puddle dynamics, alias

Three 6 Mafia has some slowed down shit..check out the song "Soldiers from the Northside" by Juicy J.

i'll think of more later

Now that I think about it, there's nothing slower than Screw. Of course you have to like the sound and beats of Texas Rap. But I'm from the home of screw so I'm pretty biased. :biggrin: Even though I'm not as big into rap as I use to be, I still enjoy a little chopped and screwed songs now and again.
