There are no shortage of great indie hip hop artists. Who can forget the massively powerful flow of Mos Def and Talib Kweli in Black Star? Or the awesomeness of Princess Superstar in her song Bad Babysitter? Even well respected mainstream bands like Digital Underground who had none other than Tupac Shakur as a member maintained an ironic, self referential, indie edge. http://www.indi-hop.com
