    I'm trying to think of some hip-hop artist and groups who fit in nicely with the hippy vibe. So far I've thought of:

    A Tribe Called Quest
    Blackalicious
    Common
    The Roots
    De La Soul
    Arrested Development

    Paltry list, I know. That's why I'm asking for suggestions. Pretty much anything that comes across on the positive tip would fit.

    Peace,
    msi.

    Oh man...I can't believe I forgot the Beastie Boys.

    I don't know about Eric B. and Rakim being on this list. They're hall of famers but they don't strike me as fitting here. BDP is a good call, though. I'll never forget Krs-One's rap against meat. I don't remember the name of it but it was brilliant.
