If someone had never heard any hip-hop, how would you introduce them to the genre?

>NOW IF I FUCK THIS MODEL

that song

Kanye college dropout. Best choice

the kodak black album that just dropped

>If someone had never heard any hip-hop
How is this even possible?

Hypothetically speaking

The Cold Vein

start with some instrumentals, in the past ive tried to show people something like a special herbs song then a song laid over it, then just go from there

Outkast Stankonia muh man, that shit is straight up fun and so many elements of what makes hip hop good.
I'm not saying the album is anywhere near god tier, but damn is it accessible.

stop shilling this faggot.

xxx is death grips for niggas who claim they don't like death grips.

death grips stopped being good after the money store

X X X is consistently good

Death Grips hasn't had a good album in five years. At least X is current

wew lad

...

Digable Planets is the Patrician Choice.

I really like that song where xxx is screaming like death grips

Stankonia probably

grad, mbdtf, and yeezus in that order. covers pretty much all main styles of hip-hop that exist and are all really accessible

With a classic.

>covers pretty much all main styles of hip-hop
I was just about to call you stupid, then I realized you were right.
Never thought of it like that.

Stankonia, The College Dropout, The Marshall Mathers LP, The Blueprint, and good kid m.A.A.d City are a good starter pack that cover various types of entry level Hip Hop

Notorious B.I.G. - Ready to Die
It's how I was introduced and is still once of my favourite hip hop albums
Also
Kendrick Lamar - good kid m.A.A.d City is good

Paul's Boutique rarely gets fucking mentioned in these threads, if ever. Thing about it is most dadrockers enjoy Licensed to Ill or at least tolerate it, which transitions well into them listening to PB with few qualms.

these are fantastic entry level albums, still 2 of my favorites

also how has no one said 36 chambers?

Easily. Also Illmatic maybe but probably after the Kodak album and the Institution mixtape

Paul's Boutique is good but I feel like Beastie Boys ain't entry level to be honest. I've noticed a lot of people don't like the beastie boys on first listen
I only actually listened to 36 chambers for the first time the other day. Was always hesitant to listen for some reason but I saw it at a record store so I bought it and loved it

>Okay okay okay okay okay

that song

Illmatic for sure

>that kodak black album

Second

the only correct answer. or probably instrumental hip-hop.

yup

BACK IN THE DAY WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER

too many corny lyrics on this for me to say it's good, but he has his moments

probably section 80

The Low End Theory is a perfect first rap album

yeah to turn them off rap lmao

Okay, it's Thai but that means it's not ruining your brain with negativity.

Came here to say Outkast as well, it is so brilliant and so easy for anyone to get into

>introduce

More like Endtroducing

this. I know everyone likes being a contrarian fag here but xxx is revolutiosining hip hop as we speak

mah nigga

I've never listened to hip-hop and I wouldn't let somebody introduce me to it anyway.

fuck me that was boring

Considering this was like a billion hip-hop fans first album, this.

BASS HOW LOW CAN YOU GO

Enter Wu Tang: 36 Chambers

Paul's Boutique's production is absolutely insane. Blew my mind the first time I heard it.

Late Registration

No J Dilla at all? Alrighty then.
