Rap and Hip-Hop

I love rap, but rap these days sucks! now all you have to do to become a big rap star is come up with a stupid catchphrase put it on a decent beat and your a millionaire. What ever happened to rappers like run dmc, n.w.a, snoop doggy dogg ( the old school one), cypress hill?????? now you get dumb rappers like t-pain and akon! uhhhhhh :(

Im a big fan of classic rock but lately ive been trying to expand my musical tastes, and ive gotten into a little bit of rap. So far I know i like older forms of the music like NWA especially Dr. Dre, 2Pac and Notorious BIG, Snoop Dogg, stuff like that. But im pretty new to this whole rap thing so it would be really nice to get some suggestions on artists, albums, and songs i should check out that you think maybe id like.

thanks!

This new song .. i mean, i give it credit for not being stupid non musical hip hop rap.. but still it's really repetitive. The music doesnt have any changes. it's just the normal part and the chorus. and he keeps repeteing it. These kind of songs resemble the stupidity of rap and hip hop in MTV.. which is that they repeat the dumb same thing with no change. Here is what i don't get, why MTV keeps pushing this type of music( mostly rap and hip hop) as if they were SUPER CREATIONS..when in reality there is no creativity.. many times they are ripped off from other stuff or just a repetitive thing which they made in 2 seconds

Not so much "better" but which do you like more, I just wanna see what people say about some classics.

1. Nuthin' But A "G" Thang
2. Boyz-N-the-Hood
3. Hail Mary

...I feel that if I have to put the artists it defeats the purpose.

My 5:
5. Chamillionaire - Ultimate Victory
- I had just about given up on new rappers but Hip Hop Police and Evening News has good lyrics, good concepts, its thought-provoking, its some different sh*t. He doesn't swear on the new album - says it takes away from his lyrical ability. Wow, a rapper that cares about lyrical ability, that sh*t is way different than ringtone wonders from ATL like Joc and Jeezy, etc.
4. UGK - Pimp C always tries to keep his sh*t raw and real, so hopefully this album won't sell out to top 40 nonsense and ring tone wonders, fingers are crossed.
3. Raekwon - Only Built for Cuban Linx II - Its the Chef, I don't need to explain this further.
2. Dr. Dre - Detox, Dre is really stepping up his level on the album (I hope), he's gonna feature every rapper he ever worked with. This will be hard to pull off, but I have faith.
1. Wu-Tang Clan - 8 Chambers.
No explaining needed, only question: Whats the new Wu-Tang sound gonna be?

Supposedly there is a new rapper named blachaze that ironically sounds like Tupac. What is your take on the whole thing? Did he really fake his own death?
