Check out Styles Of Beyond (from year 2000 I think).

Took a while to track it down, but it's great. (Has a Tribe Called Quest vibe).

B-Real - Gunslingers Vol. 1 (or at least download "Creepin On Ya").

All the Wu stuff from 5 years ago and back is great. New stuff is spotty at best.

The Roots -- Organix
