    Not technically hip-hop... but influenced by all sorts of such.... Zack de la Rocha in RATM. Proper political!

    if your into the roots you could give Aesop Rock a listen, political, modern and not black v's white stuff.
    Also, but a bit out there, give Dalek a listen, very political with a bit of an industrial(ish) sound, defo worth a listen at least
    U can find both on myspace to hear a few tunes for free
