Public Enemy is just as consistent as Gang Starr and better (IMO), so I'd give it to PE then Gang Starr at #2.

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.

How on earth are Gang Starr, Public Enemy and Redman considered underrated?  They are considered some of the best EVER.


I'm going with Devin The Dude.  (probably more slept-on then underrated but I'll go with him anyways)

CalebOhio: I think i can speak for many others when i say my favorite rap artists are white but i still want black artists to be dope. they are chosing not to be. that wouldn't be a likely believe held in a white supremacist group. I want Nas to deliver evertime but he doesn't every time Sage does. so Sage gets my $15 regardless or his status. fuck your status perception and labels you use.

i think so too. they just don't have as much mainstream popularity as the likes of Ja Rule or Luda or whatever, but among hiphop heads none of them is underrated

I agree with the Khujo/Cee-Lo stuff, One Monkey Did kinda Stop The Show tho, still Khujo's tight
