Just though everybody might enjoy some of his stuff so I would post it up. (Oh yeah some of the videos will be just a still picture) For those of you who don’t already know Aesop he is an underground rapper. His music actually has a meaning unlike a lot of commercial mainstream stuff called hip-hop/rap. For people not fans of most hip-hop/rap you should give a song or two a chance, I think you’ll like it.

What makes an artist “underground”, I thought that Aesop Rock was one of the more famous rappers.

I like his style but don’t really have a connection with his lyrics.

Probably my favorite rapper would be Buck 65, I connect more with [some of] his songs. Is he considered “underground” too?

no such thing as underground anymore. I would also agree though that Aesop Rock is quite far from what I would consider underground, but then to someone else what I consider underground is positively skyward.

Buck 65 is pretty sweet, but even more underground I go to sixtoo and cadence weapon.

I really like the evil nine song with Aesop rock, and None Shall Pass.
