underground hip hop

Immortal Tech is awesome. Back in the day Holocaust/Warcloud was the most brutal emcee ever. To me his earlier work to this day is unmatched.

I like copywrite and canibus too. I enjoy the glorified battle rappers, never heard of Holocaust/warcloud. Ill have to check him out.

If you ever heard the first Bobby Digital album, he's on that track ''Holocaust''. The first verse. He killed that song so bad that the track was named after him lol. He's not for everyone though. He spits some crazy stuff lol. His past work is way better than his current stuff.

How about Cage I know not everyone here is a fan, he switched his style up dramactically. Ive been following him since Movies for the blind. A few of my favs

YouTube - Cage - Suicidal Failure

YouTube - Cage - Blood Boy "Uncensored"

this is where things got weird but its cool to hear something diff ( my favorite song off his new album, its a radio song id say)

On the UK scene, anyone that can post up some grime songs and those bit. Not hip hop, but got hip hop/rap influence, but it does keep bits of the uk scene in it. Also a really good genre, if I dont find people jumping in with those. I will just post some as I find it.

if your after grime you might want to check out a bit Bashy or Skepta, im not really into the grime scene but my mates love it

as for hip hop, try out some skinnyman

Rah Digga is so dope, what happened to her?

Yeah Rah Digga and Bahamadia, two of my favorite female emcees. Haven't really heard anything about/from them in years but theres this one song from Kweli and Bahamadia that is a classic, coming off one of those rawkus compilations that came out in the 90s.

 

[CRPercodani]

OFWGKTA - I don't dare post any videos here but do a YouTube search for them, crazy bunch of young kids about to take over. Earl has to be the standout guy of the bunch.
