As far as hip-hop, I actually prefer east coast stuff (don't tell any of my Cali friends!!) In addition to my west coast boyz BEP,I am a fan of De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest (too bad they broke up), The Roots, and Outkast. Check out the posting for the OK Player tour, in addition to BEP's upcoming tour. I also like many other different types of music, but I was thinking your question referred to hip-hop. And who are your favorite artists?
