well you like RTJ so you should check their solo projects

you have a lot of backlog to work through.

Outkast

Wu-Tang, really, anything from NYC during the golden era.

A Tribe Called Quest

Mos Def and assorted aliases MF Doom

Madlib

Talib Kweli

Joe Budden (especially the Mood Muzik tapes)

Joel Ortiz

there's some interesting younger guys out now too.

Flatbush Zombies

Joey Badass and some others in Pro Era

The Underachievers are hit and miss

Action Bronson

Charles Hamilton (never developed into what he could have)

Check out features and side projects under different names. I don't know where you're located, but search for local talent as well. there are many many many good rappers that people have no idea exist.
