favorite underground hip hop-since we got posts about atmosphere and anticon

damn...did I really leave off BAHAMADIA? She rocks my world.

fucking likewise, homie. that woman has inspired so much of my poetry.

favorite bahamadia line - from "I confess" on the kollage LP:

"many men wit mass appeal expand across the globe by the mills/but still I picked you like a daffodil/cause you thrill me like magnetic fields that give my body chills/perserve my chocolate ties and it's a thrill; I'm sayin/that when you swing my way I, get a sudden rush/that entices me not to keep it on the hush-hush/boy times girl times lust equals us"

*swoon* what an emcee.

Yeah but Medusa is "Queen of the Underground"!!! hehe She commands attention like no other!!!

I really dig all the work Bahamadia does with Drum N' Bass Arstists. She has mastered the art of flowing over fast breaks, which ain't easy to do.

"Bahama-D-D- the eptiome of MC's"

I agree she floes really well over DnB. Too bad she only seems to work with the likes of Ronisize, Die and Suv or rather Reprazent. I say to bad because yeah they have good shit but its all crossover DnB. I wanna hear her going off over some Tech Itch or sum Cause for Concern or even Dom and Roland. Now that would be ill. Here me now Seeelecta!!

i've been all over black star lately: mos def and talib kweli
and of course anti-pop consortium is always a fave

i love this thread. here are a few names i didn't notice on other lists:
'j-live'
'mike ladd'
'all natural'
'lone catalysts'
'foreign legion'
'declaime'
'darkleaf'
and anything 'madlib' touches.
i know i'm forgetting people...

yeh j-live's on my list too...this is indeed a dope thread..i love how closely connected hip hop is with punk rock culture, especially those yummy punk chicks.
