Well, lots of hip hop these days has more in common with the likes of bob dylan and leonard cohen than those guy's predecessors.



I'm talking about Rhymesayers(Atmosphere, Brother Ali, P.O.S., ect) and the likes. I highly recommend Sage Francis, The Heiruspecs, MF Doom, the Lifesavas, and Soul Position, in addition to the above named Rhymesayers MC's.
