Nice list! Very unique, some great choices there. I've heard everything on here except for the Deep Puddle Dynamics and cLOUDDEAD albums.
Thanks, Drew. That means a lot coming from someone with such an extensive hip-hop collection. I'm trying to get into some more contemporary underground albums, like cLOUDDEAD and Deep Puddle Dynamics. Any recommendations?
There are sooooo many great albums out there. Here are just a few suggestions from the past several years:
-Mr. Lif-I Phantom
-Mr. Lif-Mo' Mega
-Ugly Duckling-Journey To Anywhere
-Ugly Duckling-Taste The Secret
-Brother Ali-Shadows On The Sun
-Brother Ali-The Undisputed Truth
-Binary Star-Masters Of The Universe
-Soul Position (RJD2 & Blueprint)-8 Million Stories
-People Under The Stairs-O.S.T.
-Blu & Exile-Below The Heavens
-Cage-Movies For The Blind
-Sage Francis-Personal Journals
-Pretty much any Atmosphere albums
Like I said, this is just a taste of what's out there. Hope you enjoy them.
Thanks a lot! I'll look into all of these.
