Hiphop Fans Enter

[PlasticCity]

Hey guys, I'm always on the lookout for new songs in different genres that I haven't heard yet, at the moment, I'm really feeling the following two songs, [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kwswAM2ukQ[/YOUTUBE] and [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0794IvqFHEo[/YOUTUBE] So does anyone have any suggestions for similar type mellow tracks? Thanks guys.

This is one of my favorites. I'd say it's pretty mellow, don't let the title of the song fool you.

If you are into the more mellow hip-hop:

I am not sure how the drug imagery and references will be perceived but I like the song:

I cant find a way to link directly but I have two others that are more than worth the effort of looking up. If you go to Myspace look up:

C4 - Who Am I

DJ Flex - Boogy & Cash - Take a Ride

Both of these songs are found on the Music Player at the top of the Profiles.


I have some other down tempo stuff I'd love to share, but most of it is non hip hop so I'll leave that for another post.

Nice posts guys, heard a few of the songs, keep them coming, we could get a good thread going. Loric, can you please post the links to their MySpace accounts ?

Yes I can, good call.

DJ Flex

C4 - this one is a bit of a cluster... I dont know why he put so much stuff playing all at once. You have to turn off four other players in his comments section.

Nice selections...I'm a huge Roots fan!

Thank you Loric.

What did you think? They are a bit raw, but I love both songs.

Pretty good for underground, the Who Am I song, is from a Juelz Santana song, with the same title, I don't know if you heard it, you should check it out.
