Prince Paul had an incredible album called A Prince Among Thieves
The album plays out like a movie, and is the story of two rappers coming up. Here's a couple of tracks off it:
I used to love this crew. Then Pharoah went and smashed an old lady in the face with a brick, and got locked up and that was the end of that (he has since been paroled).

This song was the in the late 80s
Cube's best song post-NWA
CMW was an underrated crew:
Nice dig at DJ Quik at the end too.![]()
LMAO that Quik raps about San Antonio
I was going to post that last night, but sadly, I'm too white to have gotten away with it. I think. Nevertheless![]()

Liking all the Ghostface love in here.
neither guest spot is obscure per se, but the songs probably are.
Least known??? are you ting me?
good thread though
...get off my D I then go see the (a)k........
...like my PO
she's half creole
switch weight from dallas to philly
like my name was TO...
ghost' raps are so ing multi-layered, its hard to imagine the majority are just made in his car.
but to call the dude obscure is a joke, probably the most acclaimed, most visable member still carrying the torch these days. early 90's were meth & odb's, late to early "00s were gza/rza's, but after pretty toney there hasn't been a member who stands out as much than tony starks. rza and gza chase the indie love w/their weird colabs, but ghost just gets it on raw talent.
kool keith also was another good mention but hardly obscure. when dave grhol is quoted as saying you're the only rapper he listens to, then you're pretty ing mainstream.
when i think obscure i think like B L A C K I E all caps no spaces for those who want noise and grimecore beats with their hip-hop, or immortal technique for the leftist out there...
I am confused. All these are not obscure. Is this just back in the day hits?
I'll go local since it was obscure around everywhere else
Some good in this topic! You guys know your RAP I will come back around 9pm open a few rolling rocks and jam out!![]()
yeah ill say it again, thats the main flaw in youtube threads
to some geto boys are a religion and to others theyre underground
some of the youtubes people post make me cringe, its just uncomfortable, do i be honest and scarf? or do i agree? yeah thats a good song or do i ignore
for instance tops drop is the definitive texas anthem, we all should know that song, and if you dont jam that you should evaluate your lifestyle choices
im proud of it, by defintion it evokes pride, emotion, loyalty and sympathy for pat. but do i post it, its sophies choice
although tops drop is up there i'd say the anthem would be
