Big Ben Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I don't know much about Rap or Hip-Hop but i was wondering if there are any other clean rappers like Will Smith. Could anyone suggest any? I don't completely mind if they swear as long as they are putting forward a positive message, but I still prefer the non cussing version of rap :wiggle: Ps its really hard to find a plane smiling smilie.

WesSyde Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 most of the old school rappers at the same time as JJFP are clean. try: Eric B & Rakim De La Soul A Tribe Called Quest LL Cool J Public Enemy Ultramagnetic MC's Run-DMC there are plenty of new school rappers that cuss minimally and have good messages like: Mos Def Talib Kweli The Roots Little Brother - they have more cussin but they're real concious rappers Immortal Technique - he cusses alot actually so beware, his subject matter is good tho Da Ace - check him out, he's got clean raps and fresh rhymes straight out of the 2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WesSyde Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 (edited) i'd add Roots - Illadelph Halflife and Run DMC - Raising Hell to that. edit: Roots - Illadelph Halflife does have a parental advisory sticker on it, but its not full of cussing like alot of todays rap.

Hymn Strings Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 I would highly recommend Guru's first two Jazzmatazz albums as well as the first two Gang Starr albums for little/none cussing and great messages Rakim always been quite light on the cursing KRS-One...usually Aceyalone usually takes it pretty easy on the swearing...the last Haiku D'Etat album had no swearing as someone said, Speech and Arrested Development Zion I Gift of Gab/Blackalicious Jungle Brothers newer artists like Crown City Rockers, K-Os, Wordsworth, Supernatural, and One.Be.Lo if you've heard of them ...happy listenings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
