Not sure if its been mentioned but The Roots' new album "Game Theory" is pretty good.
But your original post is spot on, its all gone very stupid.
Hip hop was originally about putting aside gang wars and hate and getting together and making music, it didnt matter wether you were a skinny wimp with no money as long as you could make good music.
All these new weirdos dont seem to understand that.
And yes it must be insecurity and peer pressure.
Morons!

US rap is done with.
Start checkin the beats Uk side.
Check out our grime/hiphop scene.
With rappers like Skinnyman, Rodney P, Plan B and Klashnekoff, you'll soon find love for the street beats again.

I forgot I still had a cannibal ox track on my mate's webspace, along with a jazz number from Triple P. Most of their stuff is way more hiphop than jazz, I just couldn't help but play this one a few times over...
Cannibal Ox - http://www.users.on.net/~marc/ca… (sends me back to the days of evil dee, black moon, company flow, Soundbombing etc)

I have also had a return to the hip hop scene, and was prompted by the passing of Jay Dee to go in search of some new material.
Last.fm was very helpful, and I managed to come across some of the same artists as Rae5000. My list is:
Grand Agent
Cannibal Ox (Produced by El-P, real frickin dirty NY MC sounds - check the track ridiculoid, it's a killer)
Jaylib/Madlib/Quasimoto (same guy, except he was jaylib when working with Jay Dee)
Little Brother
Oh No
The Platinum Pied Pipers
- andy_qube0
Rae got it!
Prefuse, Madlib, Quasimoto.
Even Blackalicious have sucumb to mainstream!!
