Again, check out Jurassic 5. They were great. I don't like much rap but could listen to these guys all day... no bling, **es or hoes in sight.

Not really rap but it's sorta hip-hop with the spoken word over the top. Really clever stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoN6XfyQsr4 - Thou Shalt Always Kill http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KnGNOiFll4&feature=related - Letter From God |

Well, I don't know the difference between rap, hip-hop, ar any of the 'new' terms for such music, but if somone talks a lot all the way through a song - it's rap, to me.
I found a great version of New York State Of Mind in the early hours, made by MLB tv, which has been edited to show the Yankees winning the recent World Series. Most of Jay-Z's stuff has been edited out and the commentators do the rapping, leaving just the great beat and Alicia singing. An excellent video for baseball fans. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IC7AIpd3NMU |

I've heard that several times Tommy, it's quite acceptable. Not a bad little tune.
