Hip Hop Help

So I decided I want to get into hip-hop. I want to listen to some words and what not. I've heard Deepspace 5, which was pretty good, but I want some swear words...seems more real to me. I also got The Roots Illadelphi album, which is great.
Please recommend some quality artists that are not so underground that only you know about them. Recommend something I can easily find on Soulseek or bit torrent.
Thanks in advance.

Ok?
Let's assume I'm a hip-hop virgin. You can name all the best artists out there and I'll probably never have heard of them. Also mentioning specific albums would be helpful as well....

Atmosphere is for emo kids who cry in the dark and cut themselves, I don't think that's what he's looking for.

Some of the best Hip Hop you'll ever hear definitely isn't swear-laced.
I saw someone mentioned Aesop Rock.
KRS-One - My Philosophy Mos Def - Black on Both Sides De La Soul - Stakes Is High
I'm also a fan of Slick Rick and Tribe Called Quest (consider Low End Theory).
Seriously. Swearing doesn't make hip hop better.
I did you a favor by replying. Do me a favor and listen to the file I attached. Please. =)

I suppose. Maybe I'm just touchy because my pre-teen daughter has recently shifted from country to rap and she has, of course, picked the worst stuff I've ever heard.

I like most anything Sage Francis does. He has some self titled work and a few albums for his rap "band", Non-Prophets.
Sage Francis: --Personal Journals --Sick of Waiting Tables
Non-Prophets: --Hope

Atmosphere- You Can't Imagine How Much Fun We're Having (the album) Atmosphere is pretty sweet, this is my favorite album, but all of them are good. The rap is ussually pretty fast and energetic, I love it.
Blade Icewood- Blood Sweat and Tears Although I tend to avoid most "gangsta" rap, I really like this guy. He is a true gangster, he is from the streets of detroit. He was shot a bunch of times, and actually recorded most of his music from a wheelchair, as he was paralyzed from the neck down. In april of 05' he was killed. Its pretty good music.
Bone Thugs- No specific album, but this music is really smooth, and GREAT to get high to.
Brother Ali- Champion EP This is a great album, and I love the song the album is named after.
Cage- Hells Winter Im not sure if you would like this album, its kind of dark. Cage has a pretty bad history, his dad was a heroin addict. Cage ended spending a lot of time in a mental hospital, which he called "rap school". Most of his lyrics are really fascinating.
Dr. Dre- His music is just classic, so many great songs, like The Next Episode, Still Dre, and Forgot About Dre
Immortal Technique- Revolutionary Vol.2 He is really into "intelligent" hip hop. A lot of it is political, and hes a great rapper.
Lil Wyte- Another exception I make for "gangsta" rap. He is really cocky, and its pretty funny, but hes got some good beats and great songs. Songs like oxycotton, Acid, and I know you strapped are good.
One Be Lo- S.O.N.O.G.R.A.M Hes from Pontiac Michigan and is just an overall great rapper
Wu-Tang Clan- Probably my favorite group. The best songs are 4th chamber, C.R.E.A.M, Wu tang clan aint nothin to fuck with, verses, and think differently.
Hope this helps, not sure if this is what your looking for, its just my 2 cents
