I love the Anticon label. it was called abstract hip hop would they first came out with bands like cLOUDDEAD/Dose One, Atmosphere, Why? etc. I've heard people call them hipster rap but i don't care, its fuckin' wicked
Why? has apparently developed a huge following after he switched to an indie rock style sound. Which i like too, but he had some great raps back then, often mixed with that indie shoegaze-ish style
and probably my favorite, (well tied with Sage Francis and Dose One) Sole:

Sole is awesome! I love that dude. I haven't listened to his older stuff but I got his mixtape Nuclear Winter Vol. 2 for free and it's fantastic. I'm trying to get my friend to do a song with him. I just made a music video for him, it's silly and goofy and it was made in a couple hours haha. Most of his stuff is political like Vinnie Paz and Sole. This song is a little different though haha His name is Repo-Rok. Here's the video:

I've been really digging the Chicago rap scene right now (mainly Lil Herb, who pretty much has the best name).

I saw Jay-z J and Beyonce over the weekend. Can't find any good videos of it, because they were all taken on cell phones, but it was pretty epic.

edit: Beyonce is also throwing this in every set, which I don't know how to feel about...

I like this track more than the other one though:

All I know about hip-hop these days is that my students listen EXCLUSIVELY to Migos and Rich Homie Quan and it drives me crazy. "Versace" has been the jam for what, two years now? It's just horrible (in my opinion of course. To each their own, I suppose.)
Warning: don't click either video if misogyny or bad music offends you.Also, since I am out in the boonies, THIS is highly popular around my school. No joke. I kid you not. See how long you make it through the video before you turn it off.
I RUB MY DICK ON THE XPEN$IVE SH1T!!!
