Jessica, it's beautiful to see Sleepwalking spark your thirst for hiphop. i
agree that it's a great album. yeah, hiphop is definitely a universe onto
itself. there's so many paths to follow, so much history to unearth.
that was the most talented Pharcyde on the Rae & Christian, check out their
early works, "Bizarred Ride II" (an absolute classic!) and
"Labcabincalifornia".
keepin things on a similar vibe, this is just the tip of the iceberg of
artists/collectives well worth your money:
Common
Mos Def, Talib Kweli & Hi-Tek
De La Soul
A Tribe Called Quest
The Roots
Digable Planets
Outkast
Slum Village
Quannum
...
paz,
aaron dario
