it all depends on what ur lookin for, if u like the raps? I'd say 94 - 99 rap.
Unless your into the more commercial shit, like the beat.... then your pretty much at a dead end, or check lil john or something
Anybody know of any artists that are similar to RZA. Don't say Wu Tang Clan. I just wanna hear a similar style to this:
Also, is his name The RZA or just RZA?
RZA comes from "Rzarector", he has plenty "AKA's" though, such as "the abbot" or "Bobby Digital". Doesn't matter though. You can call him simply RZA.
And yes I know some artists similar to him. You mean the audio production style, the instrumentals/beats, right? Or you're talking about the rapping style? (because he's a producer and a rapper).
Anyway.. if you're talking about the production style you can check out DJ Shadow, since he has some "dark hip hop" productions...
Let me show you:
Or maybe Markus Kienz feat Oddateee:
Virtuoso ft. Slaine - Fahrenheit 9/11:
or Genelec & Memphis Reigns and Master Kong:
Or Jay Electronica:
K Sarrah over Tricky's "Overcome":
Also check DJ Krush deep atmospheric jazzy beats with Toshinori Kondo:
If you want something REALLY alternative and dark check out Dälek:
As for lyrical themes... check:
Anyway I suggest you to dig at my topic about rap. You can find all types of good rap there, I think we managed to keep the quality to high standards there: http://forum.toribash.com/showthread.php?t=78267
