    Oh triggy so proud of you.

    Well,
    Sweatshop Union if you can find it.
    DJ Shadow has some rap stuff with people
    The X-Ecutioners a group of turntablists
    Talib Kweli
    Ludacris just has good stuff
    Mos Def
    N.E.R.D.
    If you can find it, 'Ratatat' but only the CDs 'Remixes Vol 1 & 2' the rest of their stuff is instrumental but still good.
    DJ Danger Mouse did a remix of Jay-Z's Black Album with him and it sounds amazing.
    Atmosphere

    Some of these I will promise you may not like out, but I only sampled my library, I left out alot mostly hardcore stuff that I know you won't like. If you have any trouble finding any of this just MSN me and I will help you find what you want. But hope some of this you will like.

    So far I've checked out Atmosphere, Talib Kweli, Sweatshop Union, and Mos Def. Really awesome stuff, especially Atmosphere. Thanks man.

    Well, to tell you the truth I probobly know more about the gangster rap than the kind you're looking for, but Spit named everyone I would have recomended.

    EDIT: I thought of one. He's not really a rapper but I like him. T-Pain.

    Chris Brown or Neyo has some decent ****.

    Fabulous kills.
    Juelz Santana
    DipseT.

    More hardcore ****, but good nonetheless. I would say, but SpiT got this covered.

    Timbaland. Shock value is awesome. I think Chamillionaire is good too.

    I would definitely recommend Nelly, he's a personal favorite of mine and also came out with a relatively new CD. A few others off the top of my head are Mims and Timbaland (which seems to have already been suggested).

    BWAH. No one brought up Missy Elliott yet?

    Well there's her, and also Nas, who I favor immensely for his lyrics. MC Solaar and Saïan Supa Crew are french rappers which I also recommend that are AWESOME too. SSC has some killer beats. 8D

    The king of rap has to be T.I.

    Almost all his songs burn like hell.

    I would also go for Chamillionaire ft. Akon - Ridin' Overseas. Way better than Ridin' Dirty.
