I saw your other thread but thought it was for atheist hip hop or something. I haven't come across anything I know of from that sub genre that has piqued my interest.

I look for rhythm/beat/ voice/lyrics in hip hop. With an emphasis on the first 2. Show me more of that. If it can't make me bob my head, doesn't really matter what the person is saying.
