    jurassic 5 are really good, i think they are more famous in america than anywhere else. Charli 2na is also in a group called ozomatli, they are a kind of latino/hip hop group quite a bit different to jurassic 5 but still really good

    www.ozomatli.com/

    www.jurassic5.com/

    yeah remember his name is ok

    for ozomatli i would say their first album (self titled is best) and if you just like the hip hop side of things listen to coming war it is ace. They are quite politically orientated too which i like

    nope i think ozomatli is just the group name, there are quite a few of them in it, Charli 2na provides the rap lyrics and the rest is all latino style music, its pretty funky

    If you like J5 you should check out Herbaliser, MC Solaar and Dilated Peoples...

    There's more out there of course, but I'm really into all of those guys at the moment.

    You really like MC Solaar ? he is a french guy and really... his songs are not that great but this is because of his speeches lol... I dont know if you talk french but yeah...

    Herbaliser i heard it many times, and still got no chance to hear it yet because i forget or im busy or my friend lose his cd...

    Who are the most famous RnB guys in the USA nowadays ?? ( yeah yeah )

    Solaar is awesome.. Yeah I can speak french so that helps (Saying that, I can't always keep up with him)...

    What albums have you heard? His first 2 are the best ones.

    I'm not really into RnB.

    The UK Hip-Hop Scene is pretty awesome these days ~ lots of interesting stuff coming out of London...

    dilated peoples are pretty good.

    Try looking up DJ Yoda(british hip hop dj), cunninglinguists and DJ Format

    im not a big fan of herbaliser but he is signed to ninja tunes and some of the groups/djs on there are excellent including Mr scruff and Kid Koala, though that is touching on the electronica grounds aswell as hip hop

    Trouser Jazz is a great Mr Scruff album...

    Like you say though, slightly more on the electronica side of things.

    I'll check out DJ Yoda...

    Yeah I like Aphex Twin and Squarepusher, but it's not realy the kind of thing I can listen to at any time..

    It can be a bit of a headfuck to listen to it first thing in the morning or whatever.

    i tend to listen to stuff like that when i am working it stops me from falling asleep when i am writing articles on stuff i can not be bothered with. I just got some albums by the faint, they are an american indie/electro pop synth band, pretty good stuff not like the usual crap you get on the radio

    The Faint?

    Never heard of them ~ Anything you could compare them too?

    When you say indie/electro, are you talking about the LCD Soundsystem kind of thing, or something slightly more like the Killers?
