https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1QGa4EmqoU $UICIDEBOY$ x BONES - MAPLE $YRUP
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OL8IYeErHHY Niggaz Of Destruction - Fuck Da World
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nE1nzTE5ESA Evisbeats - ゆれる Feat. 田我流, I can barely understand couple words on the song but thats it, its still nice sounding even though I cant understand the meaning, there used to be english subbed version of it but cant find it right now
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=852Lb89mmB0 Kero One - In All The Wrong Places, the beat is just so smooth that when I listen to it I close my eyes just to feel those vibes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrCgvwnsHsU Chris Travis - Growed On Me (2:17 A.M.), dont like the vocals that much but that Donkey Kong Country sample is just really well used
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDU1jJnkqp8 Freddie Gibbs & Madlib - High feat Danny Brown, Piñata is a real must-listen album for anyone who likes Freddie Gibbs or Madvillain even a bit, beats are great and Freddie Gibbs aint bad either
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rXE8KiQqAk KOOL A.D. - OPEN LETTER

and some finnish stuff that probably no one will understand but who knows if there might be someone interested in some foreign stuff too

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ps2nycDtRIk Fintelligens - Kellareiden kasvatit, even when you dont understand the lyrics you can still have a good laugh from how much they move their hands around while rapping
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFE_puWB-ZM DJ Kridlokk - Lokin Ipsum
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNkTqpYE_as Aivovuoto - OK
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpcYOZCXpM8 Eevil Stöö - Super Jäine Mega Bluntti (Demented), not really stuff that you should take super seriously since its like ironizing memphis rap vibe with all down-pitched slow vocals and such
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R29SlaqhqS0 TANTR SLANGRR feat ICE DAWG - SE ON SE, sample from Mysterious Vibes by The Blackbyrds sounds really good, makes it really chill-sounding
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0_uG39-mI0 Tuuttimörkö - Elämisen Sietämätön Leveys Pt. 2, lyrically really good and smart rhyming but sadly theres none of it translated to english
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zsha3srlxQA Hannibal & Soppa - Met' ollaan vaan lappalaisia, theres no any WESTSIDE/EASTSIDE thing in finnish rap scene but theres rap from northern and from southern and this one is from the northern side

Would appreciate if people from different countries could recommend some rap in their native language, I cant understand them but foreign stuff sounds really good sometimes. Especially interested in german, french, and swedish stuff but anything really is fine, I used to listen some polish rap artist couple years ago but unfortunately cant find it right now.

P.O.S. - Purexed
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JHbUuWzVNE
The drums in the chorus make it the perfect track for just going for it on an exercise bike.

Childish Gambino - Freaks and Geeks
http://youtu.be/27d138zhyZQ
To be fair I've still not decided if I'm actually a Childish Gambino fan or just a Community geek, but I do enjoy this song.

twenty one pilots - Car Radio
http://youtu.be/suh0EDgK6vI
Heard them described as Alt Pop and Spoken Word Pop before, but I'd reckon there's a rap element to their music. Incredible live performance here, but they're even better on stage.

Scroobius Pip - Introdiction
http://youtu.be/q_Gh8TWpQE8
He's mental and brilliant. His work with Dan Le Sac is probably better known, and my guilty pleasure from their catalogue would be Get Better - a soft electronica social anthem with Pip's rapping.

All current rap is terrible. No artist stands out at all. Rap used to tell a story where the lyrics alone would take you into the artist's world and mindset. It happens very rarely today if at all.

Today's rap is all about marketing and the shock value of an artist to generate buzz and sales. The things artists do OUTSIDE of the music is many times more important to sales than the actual music.

Literally created an account just to share a few of my favourite songs and rappers.

Immortal Technique - Leaving The Past

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Y4r3aFMxdU

one of the best flow-ers in the game and also really clever and meaningful lyrics.

Dr Dre - The Message (instrumental)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QJ-bi32LEk

Actually produced by Lord Finesse but song attributed to Dr. Dre who makes great instrumentals himself. You Nujabes fans should enjoy this.

Raekwon - Still Strugglin'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApT7yQMmcC0

Remix produced by Raekwon featuring some legendary verses from Biggie Smalls and Raekwon himself.

A Tribe Called Quest - Jazz (We've Got)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvzOfm0ZhS8

My favourite hip-hop group of all time and in my humble opinion no other artist(s) has ever had such amazing flow and wit as these fellas.

Mos Def - Mathematics (remix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-cThaWWq34

Remiz by Freddie Joachim on this classic by Mos Def. I prefer this over the original because the beat is so smooth and helps to emphasize the true preaching by Mos Def da best.

Madvillain - Madvillany is the best hip hop album ever produced

Doom & Madlib is god tier.

N also, it's their 10th year anniversary this year.

Anyone who enjoy rap who never listen to it need to light a blunt and get comfy in a couch listening to it

Flatbush Zombies was the first rap I started listening to that wasn't "radio rap" and I still listen to them quite often. Also a pretty big fan of The Underachievers lately, their mixtape Indigoism is worth checking out: http://www.datpiff.com/The-Underachievers-Indigoism-mixtape.449545.html

Someone I didn't see mentioned in this thread yet:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9U-HK9d_CzA

He keeps his raps simple and unpretentious, but still witty and with great rymeschemes. I love that.

I also really like Kool A.D.'s latest album, Word O.K.
