Black Star
Masta Ace - A Long Hot Summer
Little Brother - Minstrel Show

No necessarily "very" underground. I'm always mad late at discovering new acts since few of my friends are into music like that.. However, some of those albums are my fav of all time, forget just underground -

I have always had the same problem with my friends, in fact I'm the only one into hip hop like that really, never mind underground.
That said, the Internet is here for a reason! And those are some nice picks of yours, definitely worthy of a mention in any list! -

He needs to release Chico & The Man, and fast. I'm getting impatient after what feels like a Detox wait.For me there's too many last decade, but here's a nice sample

True, but you can only have 5 :tu
Yak Ballz is one of your favourites, and a good choice at that too.
I don't have that Project Mayhem, the rest is nice :tu -

Dilla has to be mentioned of course, Yak Ballz debut solo album to me he was ahead of his time, and I love the production too!
Still like his music but it has more of a rock feel now that people don't agree with, still good listen tho! Chapter 7 is coming soon!
L.E.G.A.C.Y.'s debut solo with 9th Wonder on most of the production was one of 9th's best projects IMO, overall however it was Legz's best album Suicide Music was good but
not as good as this one. Sean Price's Monkey Bars is definitely a hip hop classic!! And lastly I thank Myspace for helping to expand my ear to new music, through my research I stumbled
across Asamov also known as The Alias Brothers. And Now was a hip hop classic indeed, and since then I've stayed in online contact with Therapy, Willie Ev, and close friend Dillon on their latest projects! -

Do you post from an iPhone or iPad? You have the usual enter mistakes in your posts if so :tu lol I have these too from time to time and have to edit my posts ha
Yak ? was first introduced to me by yourself a few years back when you did your first mix and we traded our favourites. He really impressed me on that mix and you ended up giving me a full mix of his tracks which was great :tu
I've got Asamov's definitely a nice pick, didn't know you were in touch with them though, crazy.
Sean Price is an emcee who had crazy buzz and respect, but unless I'm incorrect, hasn't released much since Monkey Bars? Great album though.
I'll check out that L.E.G.A.C.Y though, props. -

Last 2 are a surprise, those first three albums are nice though, I think When Life Gives You Lemons is Atmosphere's best. -

Yeah i agree im a massive fan of Atmosphere, they got 3 classics imo. When life gives you lemons, ? Loves Ugly & Lucy Ford. they are all amazing. but when life gives you lemons is best material, musically its 10/10.
Weatherman Lp is amazing aswell. the production and features are dope on that album.
Aesop rock Float i put in there cause its just some outlandish stuff, lyrically insane album. -

I'm a fan of Aesop's, particularly this track:
I listened to the Weatherman LP, I thought it was nice, but it never caught me like anyone would consider it top 5, I'll check it out again.
Agreed on Atmosphere, they're getting better with each album because Ant's getting even better on the boards (IMO). -

Yeah with Atmosphere you can tell they are getting musically better. To All My friends .... is a good cd, a couple of songs were amazing
(Scalp, Freefalling defo) but i dont see them toppin When life gives you lemons.
You a fan of Felt? i got all their cd's the 2nd Felt album was a near classic for me and the 3rd one was great (Aesop rock on the production). thing is Float is in my top 5 underground cd's but its the only aesop i got haha. i should probs get another one of his cd's... -
Here's a recent track, he's the first one!!
I'll check out that L.E.G.A.C.Y though, props.

Yeah, I don't think they'll be able to top WLGYL either, but I know their next release is going to be close, they're such a talented duo, it's a shame they get flak on some boards.
I wouldn't go as far as saying I'm a big fan, but I have listened to both of those Felt albums, not the first one though. Labor Day and None Shall Pass are my other Aesop Rock albums, both are nice, he's a talented dude. But not one of my favourites that I bump regularly.
He appears on Eligh's Grey Crow too:
Here's a recent track, he's the first one!!
Props Trae, working at the moment, but I'll be listening to that track later :tu -

It's too hard decide on my favourite, the one that I have played the most is probably Masta Ace's A Long Hot Summer, k-os' Joyful Rebellion or CYNE's Evolution Fight... -

Royce Da 5'9- Death Is Certain
Sean Price- Jesus Price Superstar
