Rap

I haven't heard his stuff with Spearhead, but I like his earlier project, Disposible Heros of Hiphoprisy. It's good industrial rap; the only downside is that much the subject matter is very time-specific and hasn't aged well.
I'm in a hip-hop mood, so I've got with me today:
Dälek - Absence
Dr. Octagon - Dr. Octagonecologyst
New Kingdom - Paradice Don't Come Cheap
Wu-Tang Clan - The W
King Geedorah - Take Me to Your Leader
Ice - Bad Blood
Techno Animal - The Brotherhood of the Bomb

I just think Slug is a bad rapper. I don't like the stuff he does (although I did like 'The River' for awhile).

Well, that's ok. I just can't stand the people who like Slug on Headshots / Overcast! and think he fell off after that. If you just don't like any Slug, that's fair enough, but I still think you're missing out. You listened to any other Rhymesayers stuff?(Other than MF Doom, obviously) Brother Ali, Eyedea & Abilities etc.

There IS good rap out there... it is just very hard to find. I also have a guility pleasure with some classic Cypress Hill and Snoop Dog.... But most of the popular hip-hop today is just tired and boring.

Hello everyone,
I have surprised myself by registering with a forum just because I want to talk about a particular thing. That thing is The Go! Team.
They are a British band, from Brighton I believe. They released an album called Thunder Lightning Strike last year. It would be hard to define them as a rap act, but their music is largely made from samples so it's fair to say that without rap music we wouldn't have The Go! Team. If you like the sound of heavy, clattering drumbeats, howling harmonicas, old soul samples, vocal chants and stuff, you may well enjoy them. It's a bit all-over-the-place, but for me it's the happiest and funkiest music I've heard of late. Get hold of 'Huddle Formation', it actually sounds very indie.
MilkmanDan:
While I (and many others on this forum) are loving The Go! Team, I have to question their rap relevance. Samples != Hip-Hop, let alone rap. But yeah, they rock.
