 "Looking at the world through my rear view, searching for an answer up high..." -B.O.B (Just A Sign)
In a world over-saturated with "twerk this" and "shoot that", it's nice to hear that some Hip-Hop artists are still making quality music.

Of course, he has dabbled in the "what's popular" and jumped on an occasional track for the money, but when the smoke clears, he's still a solid poet. B.O.B's song, "Just A Sign" is one of those tracks that allows us, the listeners, to see just where his head is at, even with all the dro and champagne floating around. Let's take a closer look...

Jesus Piece has a lot  Lupe Fiasco channeling his energy Lupe Fiasco is an inspirational artist that has managed to find that balance in maintaining his integrity while still rising in popularity with the world abroad. He has consistently put out quality music that has not "dumbed down" his train of thought or underestimated that of his listeners.
Sure Lupe could put out a mediocre track just to get spins on the radio, but he does not bend to the will of the commercial world. Lupe puts superior content first, which is why he fan-base can always count on him to deliver the goods. "State Run Radio" is a song off of Lasers that discusses the struggle that a lot of artist have when |
