Feel good/positive hip hop

mufcboy1999 · 02-09-2014 9:56pm #1

I've way too much gangsta/hardcore hip hop in my library/ipod, great for training etc not so great for the car and walking around the place. I have a bit already but maybe some of you here can put me on some stuff I haven't heard or just forgot about.

Anything along the lines of these, respectable feel good hip hop not the corny stuff.

thanks

Really liking a lot of these, currently downloading as we speak cheers.

Simply typed positive hip hop into youtube and came across a great playlist but one group in particular really got my attention , blue scholars their called. A lot of you might like them if you haven't already heard of them...

If you like Blue Scholars then be sure to check out Common Market. Basically same producer different emcee.

Sabzi produced this next beat for a Common Market album but Geo from Blue Scholars liked it so much he jumped on it first and called the song Coffee and Snow. So Ra Scion released a similar video and song called Tobacco and Snow taking the piss calling out Geo and accusing him of stealing it. All in good humour of course.

Some kind soul put the two videos in to one youtube video.

The album they did with Surreal is dope and definitely fits the theme of this thread.

One of my all time favourite tracks and the beat is off the chain,a track that's served me well through tough times. " shut ya headlights off and let's ride tonight"
