If I like Astronautalis and Boots Riley, who else should I listen to? Any rappers notable for primarily using live instrumentation in their songs?

Hitta J3, Problem, Kendrick Lamar & YG

Production is pretty generic, but Kendrick has a nice verse.

Here's a track that's a few months old but I just found out about it

New Faces V2

Earl Sweatshirt produced the beat himself and came through with a passionate as gently caress verse that might be a good indicator he's done being so goddamn emo.

Owns.

I might buy the album because I love weird hip-hop like this.

Here's something even stranger (also owns, except I can't speak Mongolian so I've got no idea what they are singing about):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuVLjAhsw-w

Apparently hip-hop has been picking up a lot in Mongolia among young people as internet access has picked up. These guys decided their version of hip-hop needed to better represent their culture. So they added polyphonic throat singing.

Finally, I can have a niche genre all to myself!

But seriously that was a cool find.

Just curious, I dont even know if this exists. Do you guys know any fusions of folk/acoustic music and rap? I love horrocore but have been trying to expand into other genres of rap, and I was wondering if it ever fused with folk music (which I also love) or bluegrass. Just testing the waters, it might not. Thanks guys!

21 pilots maybe? They fall into the whole conscious rapper trap hard though

Old is probs one of my favourite albums in rap, so I disagree, just listen to Float On and tell me that is not the most mortal thing you have ever heard coming from the immortal king of pills that is Danny Brown. It is such a shockingly stark, yet perfect ending to an album, probably my fave closer ever.

Float On is honestly one of my favorite rap songs of all time. It hits the same note that Book of Soul does, which is incredibly hard to pull off IMO.

My counterargument is that it's way easier to point fingers at impoverished black kids with no opportunities than it is to examine the hundreds of years of institutionalized racism this country is founded on. But I guess any Fox News talking points will sound revolutionary if the beat is hot enough, so :shrug:

New Earl is really interesting. I like the direction he has taken with his production. Need more listens but on first listen it's a lot more coherent than doris albeit runs together more

It really gets better with each listen, the songs really start to come to their own (on top of having the overall coherency) with it.


e: DNA is definitely the weakest track on it though.

Cherry Bomb is definitely my favorite Tyler album so far. It pretty much avoided the hit and miss quality that the rest of his stuff has had for me.
