I'll start with Saul Williams. I found out about him because he opened for NiN. He was great. I thought he was going to break through when I heard him in a Nike commerical, but nope his social conscious rap didn't catch on.

What people or groups do you think should be more popular? Also name/link some songs.

I love Janelle Monae. Lipstick lover, Make Me Feel, and I Like That are a few of her amazing catalogue.
