If u liked Illadelphalflife, you'll probably also like "Do you Want More?" .
Black Thought (the main rapper) also did a cameo on a great jazz album by
Teodross Avery called "My Generation" It's available on Impulse records,
and definitely worth the price of admission! Keep in mind tho, that it IS a
jazz record primarily.

If u like the jazz-rap mix, another awesome artist to check out is Steve
Coleman. Again, you must like jazz to appreciate this, but Steve Coleman
really does a great job of letting his hip hop and funk influences shine
thru his music. If u want more info, just drop the list a line or email me
and I'll be glad 2 oblige.

Later,

Stimpson
