He's not that famous to common hip hoppers.

Underground hip hop has many different types. There are jazz infused heads as well as conscious folks. You can't force your self to like underground stuff, just because you're getting tired of mainstream. If you can't understand it you won't like it. Believe me, I've attempted to press it apon some friends but its a lost cause with them.

It's not about beat with lyricists, you won't find many 'club-worthy' songs. They're trying to get a points across. You may not like aesop, but find some other underground emcee you like. I personally, can only tolerate so much of aesop.

Basically do you're homework, learn about the difference of styles and content and listen to different artists. Just like mainstream you like some, you hate some.
