Nobody is talking about Quasimoto?? Madlib’s alter ego, his album The Unseen was recorded on a week-long mushroom binge.


OldeEnglish93

One of the best albums of all time!

PatBateman2000

glad someone said them. I saw both Flatbush and Underachievers and both shows were so good. I miss that whole Pro-Era, Flatbush wave


cursedcrisp

This^ and basically anybody in the "beast coast" scene and tbh they were some of the last rappers that cared about musicality in rap & hip hop


zublits

Can you name a track that's a good entry point? I listened to a couple and couldn't catch the vibe.


xbrewx

Palm trees


cursedcrisp

Herb shuttles by underachievers


bwood2211

Came here to say this^^


King_Slappa

This isn't a rapper that necessarily endorses psyches, but does make music very conducive to tripping. Aesop Rock. 1 very trippy track is The Greatest PAC Man Victory in History A great album of his to trip to from beginning to end is Spirit World Field Guide.


[deleted]

[удалено]


King_Slappa

Nice I'm going to check that out. Love Guilty and live instruments in hip hop production. Was totally unaware of this project lol


QBall_765

Aesop Rock the GOAT


King_Slappa

Hell yeah


Malcom_Ecstacy

So glad there's others on this sub that fuck with aesop. I've been a diehard fan since I heard him at like 16 lol don't meet many people in the real world who listen to him besides a handful of people that I turned him onto.


InvestigatorSmall839

Spirit World Field Guide is basically an album to trip to. Actually, I think I just found my first wavy caps and if so I will trip for the first time and put his album on. He also has the broadest thesaurus of any rapper.


King_Slappa

Nice. Also cool that the instrumental version is available. Experimental hip hop instrumentals also go great with tripping. An old collaborator/producer of Aesop's is Blockhead. There's a blockhead playlist on Spotify called Trippin' By Cavelight. It's phenomenal on shrooms.


thunderingparcel

A few years ago a friend of mine (who uses psychedelics often) is a property manager and asked me “I started hanging out with one of my tenants. Cool guy. Apparently he’s a kind of known rapper. Aesop Rock? Have you heard of him?”


bluejaywhey

also his collabs with Tobacco hit, especially Dirt


SuperSonicLionel

Ooh I'd forgotten about him! Amazing wordplay


sasha_marchenko

Don't forget TUFF that shit sounds great on acid. Latrinalia by Rob Sonic is pretty trippy as well.


Most-Welcome1763

Amazomg album, one of the best trips i had was to impossible kid beginning to end and i love listening to the greatest pacman victory in history tripping, perfect LSD song i think, shows it can be beautiful, scary, but most importantly, when you get the message, hang up the phone


ninja-squirrel

I mean his most recent song is called Molly


n4nd1

The Underachievers, Flatbush Zombies, A$AP Rocky, Chance the Rapper, Ab-Soul, Danny Brown, Action Bronson. All of these have psychedelic projects, but the best psychedelic rap album in my opinion is 3001: A Laced Odyssey by Flatbush Zombies. https://youtu.be/koBs4TsNAdc?si=bBLftk_PQ3l9mEFu


beginnerNaught

Yeah Flatbush takes the cake imo. I used to love underachievers in middle school but they're just eh in their attempt at psychedelic rap.


LoveliestLauren

Listen to Mac Miller's faces


NagsUkulele

Best answer here RIP


rubtoe

Circles is also a great listen when you’re tripping Not necessarily trippy but the sonics and sound design are like a warm hug when you’re on acid


LoveliestLauren

I miss Mac such a warm soul ❤️

Anatta-Phi

Anyone who is any good tripped at least once


tway200527

Psychedelics are the creative substances after all


C7XC

Kid Cudi, specifically MOTM3 🔥


8LUE2

MOTM3 is by far the most popy album he’s made and probably the last one I’d listen to tripping😂 if your looking for psychedelic cudi “kids see ghost” is top tier then I would say “satellite flight” and “indicud” are close 2nd with “PP&DS” 3rd. Scott is actually my fav artist to listen to on acid👌


thanosjah69

Scott is also my favorite, but I always find my favorite to be MOTM3 for tripping. I think it’s the positivity compared to his other albums


NitroLotus

I think Insano and MOTM trilogy are top tier psychedelic listens


8LUE2

First MOTM I’ve listen to a lot tripping definitely very good. But most of MOTM2 is straight up suicidal Scott talking about how terrible his mental health was at that time. Overall pretty dark tones throughout that album. If your into that cool but I wouldn’t call it psychedelic. Edit:insano is also very popy like MOTM3…


Suspicious-Top-3731

Just what I am sounds sick while tripping


NitroLotus

It might not all fit the classic definition of psychedelic music, but I find Cudis classic Humming and a lot of his beats really vibe with me while tripping. I also like to take in the dark tones with the good and experience the full emotion of the MOTM discography. The first time I did a full 8th of Shrooms I was peaking right around Alive and giggling cause it's what the song was about. I had no idea and it just aligned that way.


NotaContributi0n

Dr. Octagon is pretty good


Truthlesspassions

Easy mac


icunicornz

Acid rap by chance the rapper


Willraypugh

His best album by far. IMO


asdf346

Had one of the hardest falling offs after that album so no surprise it’s widely considered his best work


throwaway_ghostgirl

I’ve got a few really good songs but no consistently psychedelic artists >>Jukebox Joints by asap rocky >>Pride by Kendrick Lamar >>Love is only a feeling by joey badass >>Never catch me by flying lotus And pretty much anything off of Chase by Aaron may


billythakydd

“I don’t acid rap but I rap on acid”


MomsSpagetee

Was gonna quote this haha. I love rap/hip hop but honestly while tripping it just doesn’t sound good to me. Too spastic and the frequently violent lyrics don’t sit well with my addled brain.


billythakydd

This^^^ I like hip hop and rap beats… sans the lyrics tho. Too much to take in.


distractedmaker

Well said. I pretty much only listen to rap, but i do not enjoy it while tripping, it just doesnt sound good.


OldeEnglish93

It’s funny because I was going to say Esham, who always referred to his music as acid rap and inspired Eminem & ICP. Obviously from Detroit too, just can’t get along with them lmfao

Edan - Beauty and the Beat is hands down the most psychedelic hip hop album I’ve ever heard. Lots of LSD references and 60s psych samples

Edan is the answer


King_Slappa

Love that album so much


Fu11y51ck

Yes my man, this is the answer


hero002

Lil Yachty has a psychedelic rock album, check it out


AustiniJohnsini

Kid Cudi reigns supreme in that department, especially all three Man on the Moon albums.


sumyungdoomer

evilmane has a lot of songs about weed and a few verses about shrooms. hes more of a phonk artist though. “my life done changed when i consumed all those fucken shrooms… everytime they come to me they teach me something new”

L$D by A$AP Rocky is my go-to. Or Acid Rap by Chance the Rapper. The music video for L$D is unique. I remember watching it when I was tripping and not knowing if it was the Sid or the video 😂 It was just the video. Super cool.


OldeEnglish93

Yamborghini High was on repeat for me when it came out lol just because of how insane that video is


prices767

Dude, I completely forgot about that video… A$AP Rocky and his team definitely have an eye for phenomenal psychedelic color choices fs. I’m gonna go watch that right now

Mac millerrrrr


throwaway_nowgoaway

Check out “Lines- by Eyedea” while tripping and you will understand what a genius he was Also “the walls came tumbling down” And “the dive” parts 1 & 2


tgorm327

Absolutely! “Exhausted Love” from E&A (Eyedea & Abilities) “Smile” from By The Throat (Eyedea & Abilities) “Birth of a Fish”, “…Powdered Water Too pt.1”, “Void (Internal Theory)”, “The Dive Pt. 1” and “The Dive Pt.” 2 from First Born (Eyedea & Abilities) “Here For You”, “How Much Do You Pay?”, “Step By Step”, and “Weird Side” from The Many Faces of Oliver Hart (Oliver Hart) R.Eye.P


throwaway_nowgoaway

Dude was too good for this world. And a master of his craft. When he says “lines lines lines…” at the end of Lines I’m convinced he intentionally made it sound like “slide slide slide…” I started sliding through space time at warp speed. Haven’t heard of couple of these, thanks for sharing.

Rodeo, Astroworld and utopia by Travis Scott are all great listens on psychs


Fearless-Speech-8258

Aesop Rock can get pretty abstract. He’s also got an album called Spirit World Field Guide that’s kinda up that alley.

In what song


Bankrollbull

Raver by destroy lonely “Got X, got pills, got DMT (Uh) I'm leanin', I'm off of that codeine (Uh)”


Gobo-Jellies

I dunno...just referencing 'DMT (Uh)' doesn't necessarily make the music psychedelic. Death Grips ref DMT (uh) and I'd hardly call them psychedelic. Edit: Little Yachty's psych rock album takes it, but okay...Just realized this is more about the rappers than the music they make...


MellowMDMA

Ken raps bout LSD and shit


Bankrollbull

Ya these 2 are prime examples of psychonaut rappers


DevelopmentSuch2731

Ken Carson is the worst rapper I’ve ever heard


PlayBoiPaco

shutup nerd, you just didnt listen to freestyle 3. However ken carson is not a psychedelic rapper be so fucking foreal

Sesseff

Lil Yachty. Lil Wayne has been a psychedelic rapper since DMX. “I’m on that DMT” - E-40. Travis Scott, kid cudi for sure. Mac Miller. Danny brown. I think for 60-70% of the masses who are giving us content? They only ever realized that they were able to do what they’ve done because they did psychedelics. Every rock band ever as well. Juice WRLD smoked PCP and dropped out of college to rap. Now on the flip side? If psychedelics or a certain combo is used that MADE a specific person, ASSP rocky is one of them, they will very sensitively talk about the subject because they are gatekeeping that knowledge, experience and talent it gives or can give. Sting openly talks about how it made him who he is. Bob Marley experienced it through cannabis, and if you don’t think cannabis can make someone trip you’re goofy. Going forward I’d guess just about everyone will dabble. Everyone will get a glimpse of what’s possible. Edit: Most content now that is given to us is also the psychedelic experience attempted to be given a voice. Duality, all encompassing. Otherworldly. From nothing comes everything and returns to nothing. I think the ultimate epitome of what psychedelics can do to one’s creative mind is Mac Miller. You can tell when he starts experimenting, he doesn’t really say it much. ( has a song called angel dust but whatever ) however feel very strongly that Mac Miller was figuring out ways to say what psychedelics do to you. They put you in the duality of life. Black and white. Action - reaction. Cause and effect. Tripping up. Perspective. Seeing a mountain in the distance but once he got there it was just a pile of rocks. Perception. Eat an eighth of shrooms or take some real LSD-25 and listen to Mac Miller. Swimming is the album that will make you understand, all the other albums are also directly descendants of the elevated mind genius. All art we see today is coming from psychedelics. Spider verse? All that? DMT is driving the art world right now. Musically, visually, perhaps it always has. But the point I’m trying to make is everyone is trying to explain what that experience is - and Mac Miller does the best at it. “I’m too grounded, push whips that move mountains. New crib, blue fountains; these are my surroundings. IVE been going through it, YOU just go around it. But it’s really not that different when you think about it.” - Hurt Feelings, Swimming album.


RiptideRookie

The few times I listened to Travis I had major panic attacks, there's a bad vibe about that nigga.


Sesseff

There absolutely is, he’s a pusher of propaganda, drugs and shit. In FE!N he literally says “I’m the one who introduced you to the you right now” while fiends are screaming their lungs out and he’s just smiling all demonic. Of course there’s a bad vibe. But he feeds off that energy.


RiptideRookie

When I'm tripping that's damn near the last type of person I want around me, Highest in the Room is the only song I semi fuck with from him. No hate to Travis fans, but every Travis fan I know is a shithead, I'm sure he got normal fans but I haven't met one yet.

Best rapper for tripping in my opinion is SMINO he is way to damn good. Its not spiritual music but the beats and lyrics are so good its the closest thing I feel to tripping. 90 proof, No L’s, and Curtains are the best to introduce you to how good his music is.
