Hip-Hop?

I don't really listen to hip-hop much. But i've been listening to it more recently. A friend recommended these artists, and I have to say, they are fucking great!
Sage Francis Brother Ali Immortal Technique
I'm trying to find more 'political' hip-hop artists.
Anyone know of any? If a mod feels this should be moved, then please do so

And no one mentioned Edan, or MF Doom, or Cannibal Ox, or El-P, or the GZA (or any other Wu for that matter), or The Roots, or Murs. (If any of those guys were one of the videos, sorry, I didn't watch any of 'em.)
Some other good shit includes, but is not limited to, People Under the Stairs, Platinum Pied Pipers, Madlib, Jay Dilla, Insight, Tame One, The Artifacts (Tame One is one half of them), and Prince fucking Paul.

Yeah, everything listed in here is what one would call underground hip-hop. For the most part it will be what a lot of people call more intelligent and intellectual or whatever. Although I find Jedi Mind Tricks to not be so intelligent, and I find Sage to be an emo fuck, but whatever

Yeah, I never listen to Jedi and sometimes I have to turn Sage cause it makes me want to cut myself. But there still good groups to get to know the underground scene.

To me hip-hop excludes the "gangsta, gangsta" shit. They focus more on making good beats and having fun. Not trying to look like a bad-ass.
Like the one I just posted, fucking hilarity. "What are you Rosa Parks, muthafucka?!"
