Question from someone new...

[Glennadoyle]

Hey.
I'm new to writing on this forum although I have been viewing for sometime mainly to try find some new "relapse2" news.not much luck there.ha.
Anyway I am huge em fan but not crazy about rap mainly because I just hear the mainstream stuff that doesn't interest me.
From reading this forum though I have heard a few other names that em fans like to listen to.I have since gotten the slaughterhouse album and Royce da 5' 9".I've really liked these.

So was just tryin to find out what else is good that's not too mainstream please.just to keep me tickin over til relapse 2.

Thanks.

I know you said not mainstream and most of those guys are in the mainstream. Especially like Kanye West. But all the albums there have substance and are decent.

I assume you just don't want simple bravdado, bang-bang, cheesy shit etc.

Especially check Proof's album though. Pure classic.
