You don't need popularity to be underestimated, for sure.
But to be the "most underestimated", it would need a pretty darn crowd of people to at least know you, to get into the state of underestimating you.

Jay, him for sure is definitely not a good example for good contemporary hip-hop made in *srrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr*

No discussing at this point, okay.
I recently found your blog. I enjoy seeing a tubed evidence of a thinking, analyzing and engaged American. You don't get too much of this over here.

I'll put you addy to my favs and stay checking your vid-posts.

Keep on. Colin.

even though i don't understand the flow, there is no doubt that the cat is rapid fire. good stuff comin out of the fathah land. and that beat is crisp as hell.

You should also check out Afrob. And the Brothers Keepers compilation "Lightkultur," particularly "Letzte Warnung," which was a response to skinhead violence in Europe.

well, he does the "rapublic"-joke. this is pretty much poor, like the first pun on earth. clip producer is much better than the mc.

Hey, belated comment here, didn't see this before. Hip-hop in Germany is complicated and weird- often (ironically?) hip-hopppers are neo-nazi white dudes. There's a story about a popular half-Tunisian, half-German rapper, Bushido, who's had neo-nazis come up and ask for autographs after shows. Also the Fantastischen Vier (Fantastic Four), who were an early German rap/hip-hop (more pop, really) group who came to the US and were basically blown away by the difference between ethnic/class issues in the US and the middle-class white German dudes who were starting to experiment with rap.
Some of the big names are clearly just creations of a label, but a lot of other cool acts out there. I am SO not an aficionado of hip-hop (of any kind!), but some day I might have more free time to do translating for ya!
In the meantime, I'll leave you with two links: 90s bubble gum pop/"hip-hop" trio Tic Tac Toe's "I think you're shit" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7HyGa2YFg4, and also this awesome documentary clip of Turkish rapper Ceza ("maybe my rhymes hurt you, sorry man... this is hip-hop, I am God's punishment to hip-hop"): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAKBo8L2tow

Ok, I am so procrastinating now.
hope you feel better soon!
