Can someone recommend me some hip-hop based on my tastes?

asherj123

my favourite artists to lay back and chill to are ATCQ, Mos Def, Andre-3000, Q-Tip & the Asher Roth mixtapes (album sucked)

can someone recommend me some stuff to grab or mixtapes? i'm not a hip-hop newbie, but i do find that hip-hop is a clumped genre where i've struggled to find the right kind of hip-hop i'm looking for instead of people going 'oh, here, listen to xzibit, you'll like him.' when it's the more laid back jazzy beat influenced that i love.

anyways, i know you probably get a few of these threads, but if you could take the time to help me out, that'd be awesome.

yeah, i haven't really found anything new on my recent searches, new artists just don't live up to the hype, i just stick on alot of ATCQ recently and chill to that.

Curren$y is pretty nice. Skyzoo - the Salvation was a great album. New Marco Polo/Ruste Juxx album is some tough NY ? . if you like ATCQ, might wanna try some of the other native tounge groups [de la soul, jungle brothers] Scienz Of Life is another conscious group that should get more love then they do. Dilated Peoples. ? i could go on and on and on.
