Attention Hip Hop Heads! I Need Your Help!

I'm trying to get more exposure to underground/real hip-hop and was wondering if you guys can post some of your favorite hiphop tunes. I'm into rappers like Mos Def, Common, JDilla, etc. of course they're technically not underground, it gives you an idea of what sound I'm looking for. Stuff like this:

DOOM in all his guises. MF Doom's "Operation Doomsday" is the most rewarding album; every listen brings fresh nuances and the lyrical flow is unprecedented.

Also, in recent times I'm loving Childish Gambino's "Beacause The Internet"; reminds me of Kendrick Lamar which is a GOOD thing!

I think you'd also like Dr Octagon album from back in the day. ....

Everybody is special. Everybody. Everybody is a hero, a lover, a fool, a villain. Everybody. Everybody has their story to tell.
