    J. Cole is quality in my opinion. Been listening to quite a bit of Wiz Khalifa. Looking forward to their new albums.

    anyone who criticises hip hop as a genre should really listen to these

    I think a big problem is that people try to use the words "rap" and "hip hop" synonymously. I do not believe these to be the same genre of music. There are many similarities, but they shouldn't all be lumped together. For example, there are plenty of well known djs who spin hip hop and are part of that scene. DJ Krush is a good example of hip hop but not rap.

    I really like Talib Kweli. "Get By" is a brilliant song.

    The main problem is this "Urban" tag that's being applied these days,some of the artists finding their way into the Hip Hop section in the music shops is revolting.

    I'd rather stab my ears with a fork than listen to some of the * thats brandished as Hip Hop these days. Best artists are NWA, Jurassic 5, Dr Dre(old shtuff), Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg(Old Shtuff) Biggie Smalls(Ready To Die only) some of my fav albums are The Chronic, Straight Outta Compton, The Predator.

    Yeah totally, disgracefully underrated. I'd be surprised if the majority had even heard of him.

    I hadn't seen that no, brilliant though, as you say surely one of the years best.

    Is the policeman Chris Partlow from The Wire? Looks like him.
