Psychedelic Rap

Both really good. Though I reckon Foreign Beggars' first album was their best. Same goes for Rhyme Asylum.. "State of Lunacy" was amazing.

Couch - Earl Sweatshirt ~ lyrically, probably not psychedelic. The production is pretty sweet though.

Ya I got his whole album he makes me laugh my ass off.


I got Cage's album Hell's Winter and that's pretty good while dexin. His beats, weird lyrics and lyrical ability work really well with the drug...

I'm going to suggest Edan one more time. If OP doesn't think its psychedelic he wouldn't know psychedelic if it slapped him in the face with a rainbow colored penis.

Shit dude this is pretty crazy. No like really you're definitely right this will fit well in my playlist ty

If you guys like Tame One and Leak Bros, I'd also check out some of Cage's early stuff, Movies for the Blind and the Weatherproof EP. He and Tame One are the two rappers in Leak Bros. Also, I'd check out Artifacts, which is the rap duo that Tame One was in in the 90s.

^ Man, IME/O artifacts are awesome to listen to while tripping, give it a shot! I normally don't enjoy listening to rap while I'm tripping, but pretty much anything involving Tame One is the main exception, Check out this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzvkm-2SvbI It has an awesome animated video too, one of my favorite rap songs for sure.

That Gravediggaz song on the other hand could be very intense on acid--it is a about a "defective trip" after all. Influenced by/ about psychedelics, but not really something to listen to while on them.

Edit-- I just thought I'd add that I've actually listened to that entire Leak Bros album while on PCP... it was very intense, I felt like I could see where some of the weird phrases they use came from, it was a pretty bizarre experience.
 
Any OFWGKTA is psychedelic (Mike G is most psychedelic by far, made synth production. Domo is very enjoyable high, HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIS NEW MIXTAPE), Deltron is fucking raw psyche, OutKast encompasses so many different genres, any of their mid 90's - early 2000's. QuasiMoto is MadLib, who works with lots of psychedelic rappers like MF Doom. Impossible to talk about psychedelic rap without Lil Wayne or Three6Mafia.

His group, Maspyke is also pretty psychedelic/jazzy, so anything by them is nice too.

Anything produced by LeftBrain, Tyler the Creator, Earthtone III, Organized Noize, DJ Premier or Pharell is also bound to have some psychedelic twist to it.
 
Check out this guy named Eyedea. He is fucking ridiculous. Also Atman and the Sons of Saturn are some amazing intelligent, psychedelic hiphop artits.
 
how would something be described as "psychedelic" rap?

I dont see Tyler The Creator's appeal either
 
tame one is my favorite psychedelic rapper, always raps about dust and acid and shit. cypress hills 3rd album, temple of boom, is a great example of a psychedelic rap album imo. aesop rock is good, hard to get into at first. check out pm dawns greatest hits, some beastie boys would fit the bill (particularly paul's boutique.) dj screw has some great mixtapes. wu-tangs early shit i would consider psychedelic, very dusted sounding, 36 chambers and most of the first solo albums, particularly tical, return to 36 chambers and liquid swords. a lot of el-ps shit, early cage, a lot of weathermen crew shit really. also check out quasimoto (madlib alter ego.) some "hyphy" shit is fairly psychedelic, particularly late mac dre albums. de la souls first album, 3 feet high and rising. i'll try to come uip with more later.
