bubinga5 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 (edited) Then along comes Oliie and Jake with Ninja Tunes and they literally make a whole new form of UK Hip Hop. I think The Herbaliser are so clever. Jean Grae rapping.When this album came out i was just blown away.

nilorius Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Live songs with rap must always have the very proper band playing and the vocal has to think about the txt a lot. Otherwise it's a crap. I like how RHCP uses rap in their songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eminem bringing Labi Siffre and even Chas & Dave to a wider audience is a great example. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykesbass Posted January 14, 2023 Author Share Posted January 14, 2023 (edited) Thread update to recommend last year's Loyle Carner album, Hugo. Well worth a listen. Edited January 14, 2023 by Mykesbass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLowDown Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 I prefer rap when it's fused with other genres such as jazz. Because I'm not much of a rap or lyrics guy, I need some extra spice added to the instrumentals to make it more interesting for me. Artists that may be seen as rap that I enjoy include: Gang Starr(as mentioned by OP), Guru(particulary his Jazzmattazz albums), US3, Jazz Liberatorz, Fun Lovin' criminals. I love this one by FLC, the sax gives it a very jazzy and mellow vibe 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
