The Coup, The Coup, The Coup... "Pick A Bigger Weapon" might be my favorite political hip-hop album ever.

So damn good. And the DJ scratches with her tits... what's not to like? Especially for the Bay Area folk in this thread (they're from Oakland).

Yeah I am really digging the Grime MC's.

I was hoping to find some ILL stuff here in the Bay Area
but I cant find any new/fresh MC's that are rockin it like good Grime.

You're obviously not listening to it then. Ignore the radio and television. You have to dig for gold.

I'm digging a lot of the international hiphop from brazil, mexico , Tanzania, Senegal.

You can find a lot of good stuff to listen to on these sites -

africanhiphop.com
africanhiphopradio.com
nomadicwax.com
magabo.com

Obviously can't understand the lyrics on most of these cuts , but I'm usually enjoying it all the same. Raw, hyped up delivery in swahili or wolof - dope!
