I was wondering

Recommended Posts

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.

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

Thanks. I'll look into those, does anyone suggest an album for any of them.

I would definitely like to hear suggestions for good albums to buy too. Thanks.

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
