One of the most underrated of all time - Devin the Dude

Postby stillmatic » Dec 1st, '10, 01:53

The original Kid Cudi, but with less Emo.

In Hip Hop circles, he's not underrated at all, with legends like Dr.Dre, Scarface, Tech N9ne, Outkast, Nas, Eightball & MJG, Snoop Dogg, UGK and many more all having recorded with him. But when it comes to Hip Hop fans, he's too underrated and not that well known.

One of the smoothest voices and smoothest music in Hip Hop history.

A good start for those not exposed to him.

What a job ft. Andre 3000 & Snoop Dogg

You're laughing at Raids for not knowing him but you thought Cypress Hill was one person and thought Redman was in Wu-Tang...

Okay then

BTW, Raids said he "never heard him" (as in never heard any of his songs), not he "never heard OF him".

yeah he's got about 7 albums, and about 5 mixtapes, and a heap load of songs in other artists albums. he has a lot of material out there.

I suggest you start off with these two albums.

Waiting to Inhale (2007) - his most commercially successful album.
To Tha X-Treme (2004) - his most critically successful album, and highest rated amongst his fans.

It's very chilled music.
