[TheSanityAnnex]

What about ?

And that's not including any Cali dudes I listen to. There are too many.

[TheSanityAnnex]

Nice list. I'd add Common and Talib Kweli.

I would as well. It was off the top of my head list during an argument so of course I missed more than a few.

"He's from L.A. (ahh) Southern California
Fool the West coast, where everybody is somebody
And the game is fame, do everythang with a bang
And everybody wanna know what set you claim"


How many ing times do I have to say that I didn't include anyone from Cali on that list?

I saw Sleep open for Atmosphere a few years back. He is one fast rapping mother er. I picked up a Sleep solo album while I was there. It's not a bad album, but it's not one I play much. Send me a pm and remind me, and if I have time, I'll upload the whole thing and post it here for you to download.

One album I know you can get that has Sleep in it is a group that goes by "The Chicharones" The album is called "love at first bite". It's Sleep and Josh Martinez, and if you've never heard Josh Martinez, you are in for a treat. The two of them combine for some amazing songs. I'd recommend picking it up. In fact, I believe Itunes is now carrying it. Yup, just checked. Listen to the second song for an idea of what you are getting.

Pick up Josh Martinez's two albums as well. "Buck Up Princess" and "Midriff Music". He is one of the most unique and talented hiphop artists I've ever heard.

yah... its okay... wasnt really diggin it

"hit em" is a ing banger. "trigger" and "bad lands" are the only other two I really like. that album wasn't all it should have been.
