rhymefest last album was pretty good, El Che

prefer english grime though, its generally far more basic (just some random beat, not megaproduction) but you have the big names battle it out within the scene which is cool I guess

If you like Jedi Mind Tricks' melancholic/darkish beats you could try these:
Cunninlynguists - KKKY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjmg3MNz_fA
Roger Molls - Hipology http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Pyl-GNoIMs
Apollo Brown - Empty World http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YLv4X7AEg4
Blockhead - Music by Cavelight http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJxupFMiibs&feature=related

Immortal Technique is known for his storytelling lyrics so you might want to give Atmosphere a shot:

Atmosphere - Fuck you Lucy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qlr1H_iV6qs
Atmosphere - God loves ugly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpJJTmr827k
Atmosphere - Yesterday http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEHTTFOwsDs


Dark rap, with a British accent though:
Rhyme Asylum - Solitary Confinement http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EugjuQfrNvg



+ a tasty special
Hip Hop 101 by various artists, this beat is too unknown for its level... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_iCtTYiR88
absolute beginner
Mobb deep
nothing special that hiphop is dead, bad music is bad.
I'm a huge Nas fan, so I recommend some of his albums ;p
