favorite type of rap music?
 

for me its old skool (what ever) all the way.

East Coast

There are too many styles of rap that fall under catagories that could span the catagories you have.

I am a fan of Underground Rap (heiro), some East Cost Rap (Ghostface, Raekwon), some West Coast Rap (snoop), some Alternative Rap(goats), some Politcal Rap(PE, Paris), and a few others.

I denoted Other for So Solid Crew

Bay area.

You are willing to take all the crap i.e. Mac Mall, E-40, JT Tha Bigga Figga, etc etc etc, just to have Del, Hiero, and The Coup?

Down South but not all that ignorant country bamma stuff I like stuff like Outkast, Cee-Lo, P.A. Crunk music is good in moderation other than that it's whatever catches my ear but as I age I'm growing REAL tired of the current playa/thug kick rap is on right now.

Old school for this old fool. Gangsta rap makes me naseous.

I just went by what my two favorite groups are, Hiero and Quannum. The Coup is just gravy. :)

Used to like all rap, but now I like the old school.
Todays rap is not what it used to be.
Few exceptions of course...Eminem..Ludicris...Ja Rule(if he dumps the R&B)
I hate r&B rap, except L.L. He is the only one who pulls it Off pretty good.

Favorite is Underground/Alternative rap (which should be a poll choice). Some favorites are: Atmosphere, Hieroglyphics/Del the Funky Homosapien, Quannum/Blackalicious, El-P/Def Jux/Company Flow.

I also like a lot of instrumental hip hop/trip hop...DJ Shadow, Cut Chemist, the Herbaliser, Rjd2, etc.

Damn, I could have wrote that post myself :eek: I had to double check to make sure I didn't :lol:

i was thinking of doing a "rap metal" catagory, but i know all of you hate that kind of music right.

I've found that I really like the West Coast style, particularly Dr. Dre and the people he produces.

Well, then, you've obviously got excellent taste, my friend. ;)

mid-to-late 1990's East Coast rap is the best, imo.

Big fan of N.W.A, Eazy-E, Public Enemy, Run-D.M.C., Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince, OutKast (only Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik), Dr. Dre (only The Chronic), Snoop (only Doggystyle), Ice Cube (Predator, Lethal Injection), Ice-T (O.G.), a little Bone-Thugs, Eightball and MJG (Comin' Out Hard), and a few others...

So with a few exceptions, I guess I belong to the Gangsta Rap crowd.

BTW, I haven't listened to any new cRap.

I also dig Cannibal Ox, Asian Dub Foundation, The Streets, and Roots Manuva.

i always dig things like Jurassic 5 (look at the user name :) ), Tribe Called Quest, Mos Def, The Roots, stuff that isn't necessarily on there. and Common. and more.

Dont make me buss a cap in you ass foo

Lets see, no sure where I fit in..

Jurassic 5
Tech N9ne
Aesop Rock
Atmosphere
Wu Tang
Redman
Latyrx
ATCQ
Big L
Lost Boyz
Blackalicious
N.E.R.D

Lots more.

I don't think I fit into one particular subject..

I like:

J5
Dialated Peoples
Ordinary Peoples

I like Hip-hop more so then rap.
