Re: Chilled Hip-Hop

Nice recommends Folks.

If you liked Mushroom Zazz and are interested in "Chilled Hip Hop" then you probably will enjoy anything Jazz, Funk, Soul etc. etc. from last century. Down-tempo/ Trip Hop and Chillout are doing some great stuff with Hip Hop fusions as well. Remember too that Hip Hop was founded off old breakbeats and electro in the 70's.

As far as more recent true school Hip Hop goes though, I would recommend researching these few acts: Dj Premier/Gangstarr, Visionaries, People Under The Stairs, D.I.T.C (digging in the crates), Artifacts, Aceyalone, Little Brother, Digable Planets, Binary Star, Black Moon, Smiff n Wessun, Afu Ra, Group Home and Jeru the Damaja. A lot of these crews are associated and affiliated with each other, seeing as though "the underground" sticks together usually, so expect quality gems. Furthermore they all are pretty much old school and therfore thier much older stuff is golden. "Rap - lies = Hip Hop"

damn fool, I see we have the same taste in hip hop.. btw you forgot to mention Styles of Beyond (I think they're from the sf valley), Word O' MOuth, Punchline, Wordsworth, De La Soul, Big L, Can-I-Bus freestyles (they are the shit!), Apathy, that chick from the 1st Real World.. she only had 1 album out...RazzKazz, Mr C, Non Phixion....

Aceyalone's crew Freestyle Fellowship.. a bit wierd... that one track Sunshine Men blew my fucking mind!!!!!!!!

UGK - Ridin' Dirty


"Having things my way, hittin that highway
Sellin that big yay, a plush-ass place to stay
Po-lice, they wanna run in
Talkin on cell phones got a lotta kings done in
I wanna live like Arnold, Willis and Mr. Drummond
And keep my paper sturdy, big birds and tight herbs
Fool, I'm ridin dirty"



yeah...probably not what you're looking for

Re: Chilled Hip-Hop

zero 7. miguel migs also does some trippy chilled stuff.

Caia. I HIGHLY recommend this group. I heard them on Pandora one day and immediately bought the album, "The Magic Dragon".

A calaboration between Maiku Takahashi and Andy Cato (of the infamous Groove Armada).

this track always gives me goosebumps
