Some people who read this blog will be too young to recognise the words "Melody Maker", but if you happened to read that paper in the 90's, and had any kind of interest in hip-hop, you should recognise the name Neil Kulkarni. He's still writing, about all different kinds of music, but he does a specifically hip-hop based column now for the Quietus. His new one is worth checking out, if only for the particularly fine rant at the beginning about mainstream hip-hop. But read further on and you'll find lots of names on the current underground scene worth checking out - Joell Ortiz, Willie The Kid, Nottz, Gunshot and loads more.
