if you really were "just crazy like that", you would have subliminally written a sentence like that comprised of words in aphabetical order. :)

jean grae, jazzyfatnastees, platinum pied pipers, D'Angelo (more neo-soul than rap but he got a good flow) they all artists on okayplayer so u know they got soul

if u havent heard, lauryn hills famous album 'the miseducation....' thats real good i dont think any hip hop fan would not like this album

i didnt mean mobb deep i meant 'goodie mobb' they are a legendary southern group similar to outkast, u might of heard cee-lo??? check out his solos too REALLL funky soulful all that jazz. check out their debut 'soul food'

Very nice list. I don't know if you guys have heard about the troubles with O.C.'s new album 'Starchild' but if you want a real copy you can get them at JB Hi-Fi. The record company was giving them away a while ago but they were only shipping to N. America.

calvin richardson,
india.arie,

D'Angelo and badu are two of the best soul artists though so u may not think much of some of the ones i listed because they cant compare too the brilliant D'Angelo :D.
