im looking for new music and want to know some new like upbeat rap songs. Songs like

Good Day by:Nappy Roots and

Slow Down by:Wyclef Jean

if you could help me out that would be great if not oh well.
 
I wouldnt consider those two songs rap songs... Maybe good day but deffenetly not slow down. Those are more like top 40
 
Yummmm

Seriously though. What exactly is "good"? It varies from person to person, so therefore we cannot recommend you "good" rap, only the rap that we like. It's not hard to find good stuff, and if you find an artist you like, why just get songs? When you speak of music (or at least of finding music) albums are much easier to deal with.

As for artists...you can figure it out.
 
On Oil by E40 check out some hyphy stuff, e40, mac dre, adndre nikitina, it is usually the best rap. and notorious big, but you can figure it out better for yoursellf.
 
I hear if you don't like Sanfransico Knights by People under the Stairs they'll come beat you to death, thats just what I hear though
