Afternoon Forums, I've noticed over the years that, as with most music, a lot of popular stuff is not very good. There are absolutely deserving people of fame such as Notorious B.I.G., Nas, and Kendrick Lamar, but then we also have people like Iggy Azelia, and the Ying Yang Twins(shudder).
Anyway, I am relatively new and/or inexperienced when it come to rap and have only heard a few of the major people--most of them being crap. One day my friend introduced me to Immortal Technique, who I had previously never heard of. He is a true artist and story teller.
There is also a local Boston guy who I've started following who is damn good and has a certain Je ne c'est quoi.
I think I did that right. Music starts around 1:50
His name is Riggz Two Nice and he too has some serious talent.
My question to the people of this site is what are some local or not as well known rappers that either deserve more attention, or that you think are good. I want to expand my tastes. Thanks.
