#hiphophubski# is a good place to start, just pick random stuff from there.

Like this for example.

Or, literally anything besides this track because it was absolutely horrible.

Also, a better Canadian rapper:

Ah. AHH. My god Shad needs to make it big even if he doesn't blog or twitter.

I can post recommendations forever so I'll stop here but for real check the tag out, click some stuff.

Just kidding, I have more.

K'naan is like, kinda Canadian. Pre-Country God or the Girl K'naan is fantastic (sorry galen)

Damn, that Kendrick Lamaar track is awesome. Makes me believe that his next album might hold a candle to M.a.a.D City!

Longtime fan of "Rose Garden", and the (supposed) homage payed to Pharcyde's "Drop" in the music video filmed in reverse.

I'm not exactly any kind of educated on hip-hop, so if there's major cultural gaps in between those two pieces of art, feel free to fill me in at your discretion.

But most importantly, I'm really glad you're back, amigo. I do have a pending grad school application to Boulder, and it's my #1 choice. If I get in, we're hanging out in between all the labwork I'll inevitably face.

I've heard of Shad before. really digging it. Thanks a lot for the links, I'll look into them, and follow #hiphophubski .
