I am looking for some good music to make a CD. What are some good songs to include? I am mainly looking for some conscious hip hop/rap. I already got someImmortal Technique, Dead Prez, and some KRS One. I would prefer a song with a good beat.
Thanks.
 
Well if you like Dead Prez, try out Binary Star, One Man Army, Black Star (Talib Kweli and Mos Def). And go for the classics too, Tribe and De La Soulcan't fail.

Just stay away from backpacker type hiphop that's coming out the mid-west and all that sappy suburban rap.
 
^ Whoa! What!? Lupe? Concious? Concious of Louis Vuitton Belts and pretending to skateboard, but that's about it.

By conscious do you mean lame backpack rappers, or just good lyricism?

What is this "conscious" hip-hop you speak of? Are the rappers awake, or something?
 
what about the Living Legends, are they considered "conscious" hip-hop??
