My first Hip-hop post is here!!! I have always been a big underground hip-hop fan. In high school i kinda dove in head first to it. I still remember the first few times i listened to Hiero, Del, Slug or Atmosphere as everyone thinks hes called now (Atmosphere is a group, not a rapper), and the Living Legends crew, which consists of Eligh, Murs, The Grouch, Sunspot Jonz, LuckyIam.PSC, Bicasso, Asop, and Scarub. Some members of the group stood out much more then others. Mainly Murs, Grouch, And Eligh, With Scarub close behind. Grouch always kinda grabbed me the most cause of his lyrics, and his beats were excellent, and self produced. 2 of his albums are still in heavy rotation for me, "Dont Talk To Me" and "Making Perfect Sense". Dont Talk To Me is still my all time favorite though, cause its his first album ever, and it holds everything that underground was built on. It was recorded on the classic 4-track, and was released as a tape, which gives it, its authentic feeling with all the pops and fizzes, which made it my favorite. Its since been re-released, but still sounds just as amazing. One of my all time favorites. Give it a real listen, it will help change your idea on REAL hip-hop.
