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

yeah well the point of the story is, i can't see breaking anywhere in the thread title.

 

[hiphophorray123]

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.

jill scott
angie stone,
martin luther,

'tony, toni, tone',
kem,
calvin richardson,
india.arie,
lucy pearl,

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 .
