Judging by those artists I'd suggest you check out:

Mos Def - Black On Both Sides
Pete Rock & CL Smooth - Mecca & The Soul Brother, The Main Ingredient
Pete Rock - Soul Survivor

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.
