Can you guys recc me some catchy, but good rap? Stuff like Kanye, Jay Z, Outkast, even Gambino. Preferably something with more meaningful lyrics at times like Outkast, but thats not a requirement.

If you like drone, Barn Owl's album "Lost In The Glare" is a pretty good one.

Cool, thanks. I've been trying to get into more hip hop lately, all I've really been into up to this point are the obv. classics Public Enemy, Nas, etc. and the popular modern ones.

I'm gonna guess that K-OS song came out around the late 90's or early 00's, because hearing that instantly brought back memories of hearing it a lot when I was a kid.

Yeah, I suppose. Can't say I was that concious of it, being eight years old and all, but there's a lot of songs I'm hearing lately remembering them being around back in the day.
