Just about all of Tech N9ne's work I love. He is probably the biggest 'underground' current rapper out there. (IMO) Plus he has a very wide range of work/ style.

NOTE: some not the most safe for work, (lyrics)

I am in:

Hey Baby - Stephen Marley
Sweet black ***** - DJ quick
Paid in Full - Eric B and Rakim
My Philosophy - BDP
No Diggity - Blackstreet featuring Dre
Its funky Enough - The D.O.C.
New Jack Hustler - Ice T
The Message - grandmaster flash
The Breaks - Kurtis Blow

One newish song, the rest old skool.

In high school, we used to booze-cruise the mean streets of Clarion listening to DJ Quik. Nothing like a bunch of white kids cranking "Sweet Black *****". "Tonight", as somebody mentioned earlier, is a great song, too.

Well, I'm going to extend it to hip-hop, but...it's a shame most people only know rap as ******** like Soulja Boy. Here's some of my picks, in no order:

Public Enemy - Welcome to the Terrordome
Eric B. and Rakim - Don't Sweat the Technique
Stetsasonic - Talkin' All That Jazz
2Pac and Dr. Dre - California Love
Warren G - Regulate
Blackstreet - No Diggity
Bone Thugs N' Harmony - Tha Crossroads
NWA - Straight Outta Compton
Ice Cube - It Was a Good Day
De La Soul - A Roller Skating Jam Called "Saturdays"

And my 11th pick is:
Black Moon - I Gotcha Open (Remix)
