FaHim-
FaHim, hailing from Brooklyn, was born in Bangladesh and came to this country when he was five. He was raised by the streets, getting involved in gang life at an early age. Fahim has spent much of his young life bouncing between prisons and homeless shelters. FaHim uses his gifts on the mic and his masterful lyrics to spread his message of oppression and government injustice. FaHim blends battle-hardened swag with moral sensibility, to create a multi-dimensioned rapper. If you like fellow NYC lyricists such as Nas, Immortal Technique, and Saigon you will probably enjoy FaHim.

Maveric-
I know that after McCain/Palin used this word till your ears bled, you might be nauseous from the sight of "maveric" in text. But don't sleep on this MC from Brooklyn. Maveric does not fit the stereotypical mold of the current rapper. He is not the product of a broken and fatherless home. He does not rap about violence, drugs, and gang life. He raps about everyday struggles and brings an uplifting message. In his track, Feels So Good, he rhymes, "I thanks gods for my mom and my pastor, if it wasn't for a wise counsel I'd have been a disaster... I used to testify how I feel so hood, now I go around sayin' how I feel so good. It's a blessing takin' care of your health, but it's even more than just a blessin' when you bein' yourself." With Maveric, there is no fronting, no claiming to be anything that he is not. No apologies. Take it or leave it. I suggest you at least take a listen.
Notable Tracks:
-Sunset
-Feels So Good
