The Nickelback of hip hop. It amazes me that people can hear these incredibly crappy rock bands on the radio and know there is good rock n roll out there that's just not getting as much exposure, but can't make the same connection with rap

yeah, i was thinking more:

People Under the Stairs
Common
Surreal & The Sound Providers
A Tribe Called Quest
Mos Def
Jurassic 5

even, Digable Planets - Reachin' (A New Refutation of Time and Space), was kind of a "one album wonder", but a great album never-the-less.
