Pretty much the only music I listen to, I like too many artists to name them. Although for people who thinks Hip Hop and Rap is all guns, crime and asses then you are very misunderstood. The very commercial Hip Hop and Rap are what give Hip Hop its image. If people looked deeper into the genre then you'd see Hip Hop and Rap are alot different than what people stereotype it to be.

I think some people have lost there edge, many of the commercial rappers you see today actually used to be good, but some have spiraled downwards. Jay Z is one in particular, Im listening to an old set with him and Big L and Jay Z isnt half as good now as he was then.

I would also recommend UK Hip Hop, arists like Sway, Roots Manuva, Kyza, Taskforce, Rodney P, Skinnyman, Klashnekoff and Phil Life Cypher should all be looked into...
