James Yancey aka J Dilla, the great producer and widely acclaimed as the instrumental for the establishment of modern neo-soul accompanied me through my journey of awakening till his untimely death in 2003. His work is ambient HipHop soul at its best.

For those of us awake on the black hand side or you just like some psychadelic soul, New Amerykah the album from Erykah badu is some heavy stuff.

Ankh Aten Ra always keeps the knowledge and love dropping, also on his new album 'The Awakening'.

Also check out Madlib (or ANYBODY from the Stonesthrow label), Cannibus and not to forget The Roots.

We've got alot of great music here in Africa but the channels for purchase are just not really established but I'd be happy to help anyone looking for African music in finding some on the net.

Just my two cents now, don't hate!(lol)
