    Looking for some recommendations for something new hip-hop wise.
    Hip Hop i like...

    Immortal Technique,
    PE,
    Aesop Rock,
    Cadence Weapon,
    Flobots,
    Sage Francis,
    Saul Williams,


    There's a few others too, i generally like strong lyrics, and not the usual beats, i quite like how IT and flobots use brass and strings rather than just beats.

    Thanks all round.

    B Dolan just released an album that is very similar to Sage Francis' stuff.

    Shad is another very nice Canadian MC.

    J - Dilla, Common, MC Solaar, Akhenaton, Shurikn, IAM, Rular rah for me. classic, intelligent RAP with class beats. Common's newish album "be" is particularly very good.

    Buck 65

    ì would assume that it's The Undisputed Truth that you are talking about.
    But Shadows of the Sun and The Champion EP are both also incredible.
    There is an EP that he recoreded with BK One that i'm desperately trying to get my hands on for a listen!

    Undisputed truth, thats the one. Got some awesome tracks, like I said, some of the best stuff I've heard this year........I'm pretty picky. I'm on the lookout for more stuff if I come accross that EP I'll PM you.
