Although he was also a typical angry black male, I long for the days of 2pac, Wu-Tang Clan and Big L. That was hip-hop. Today's "pop-hop" is laughable 95%+ of the time compared to the early to mid-90's.

Yeah definitely agree with you about the good old days... and I would have actually mentioned those three artists you listed as well LOL.
But I don't have the same disdain for new hip hop that you seem to have. It's odd because Kanye and 50 have quite different sounds, but I do like both guys.
