I used Khan Academy when I reentered uni as a mature-age student and found it very helpful

I’m not a fan of ATHF and The Mouse and the Mask is still in my top 5 of all time. Production and lyricism are on another level.

Oh man, speaking of Kweli, his Black Star album with Mos Def needs a mention

He’s also Ice Cube’s cousin

Those Unkle and Jeru the Damaja albums are rock solid recommendations

Hip Hop: DJ Shadow- Endtroducing… Blues: RL Burnside- A Ass Pocket of Whiskey Psychedelic Rock: The Cambodian Space Project- Whisky Cambodia Dance/Electro: The Presets- Apocalypso
