I like both, Underground is brilliant. But all the classic tracks I like are Commercial. And I really like Old School and alot of that is Commercial!

Eyedea - Eminem
Talib Kweli - Nas

yo i gotta stick to the underground cuz the rhymes be more raw and direct and have a better scheme............................................ ............besides mainstream songs that r cool get played out quickly taking the vibe from it..............and also whats better than bumping some unknown tracks to let people wonder what that ill stuff was

^^^Yep Underground is better hype goes to some commericial rapper heads...

Master Blaster 06-26-03 11:55 PM

Underground Of Course

All That Main-Stream Bull_Shit Sounds The Same

I'll Even Quote A Popular Artist Of Today

Are you serious? You think that the US just has underground artists? Why don't you check some of your local artists?There are a lot of undergound artists over there, as well.

N-Demik 06-27-03 09:38 AM

Hmmmmm Being In England Isn't An Excuse...

I Know Over 300 Or So Underground Artists And Where Do You Think I Live?? :rolleyes:

The MRB 06-27-03 09:56 AM

You worded it wrong it should of been

underground vs mainstream
becoz some mainstream acts arnt commercial (Jurassic 5, Gang Starr, A Tribe called Quest)

i like a lot of underground,mainstream and even a few commercial acts on an occasion, if its Hip Hop imma mos def give it a go

D-Dizzle 06-27-03 11:36 AM

I like both, I think hip-hop needs both as a diversion, yaknow. Just because you on one side doen't mean you are better, it's some wack underground cats just like it's some good mainstream, it's just mainsteam gets pushed in your face so much to the piont where it makes it played. But I think both serves a reason
