Can I Get Some East Coast/Southern Recommendations?


Another question reminded me of something I’ve been wanting to ask for a while…

I’m looking for East Coast/Southern/Midwest alternatives to the West Coast artists I listen to. I don’t necessarily know how to classify what my preference is other than "fun lyrical Hip Hop", lol. Here’s what I tend to bump…

Bukue One, Lateef The Truth Speaker, Lootpack, The Grouch (And the rest of the Living Legends), Globetroddas, Dirtbag Dan, Del, Myka 9, MC Zumbi, Crown City Rockers, Blackalicious, Nocando, AWOL One, Oakland Faders Buck 65…and then some of the lighter stuff done by The Visionaries, Orko Eloheim, Planet Asia, Ginseng Roo…

Hopefully that can give you an idea of what I listen to. I’m not looking for the "West Coast Style", because I don’t really think it exists so concrete, but rather just some fun lyrical music like the dudes I mentioned (I’m a huge Nappy Roots fan). If you have any ideas, please let me know!
Who doesn’t like Grand Puba, lol!

I used to live in the A, so I’m very familiar with YSS.

Both are definitely worth the listen though. Thanks!

Yall So Stupid – south

Grand Puba – east

EDIT: oh lol, those were the only ones that came to mind. um how about Kwest Tha Mad Ladd
