Been in the mood for some great, meaningful, hip hop. Below is all the hip hop artist i have listened to. Only looking for recommendations:

Jay Z, Lupe Fiasco, Kanye West, Atmosphers, Murs & Slug, Sage Francis, Eminem, Flobots. I think that is it.

It's the Boss, Tony Danza of Stanza
Springsteen of sixteens.
It's nothin’ sweet, it's Lupe
He is white people's Kool-Aid, it’s mean:

Mos, Black Thought, and One Be Lo are all great as well. If you want a lesser known, but really talented dude check out Prolyphic. Little on the depressing side for a hip hop record, but The Ugly Truth is something you should hear. http://www.myspace.com/prolyphicandreanimator
