I am “forced” to learn some hiphop stuff - which is really not my genre.
What are good & easy to play tracks for bass guitar? Maybe not something about money, twerking & how cool the singer is or what body parts are impressive.
If possible, something raw & “underground”.
In fact there are only a few hiphop/rap artist, I like:
Yes, I’m old - but I’m open to learn new stuff 
Get them to sing Black Steel In The Hour of Chaos for you!
White Lines has an amazing bassline
LOL! I really like that idea
I’m afraid that they will ONLY do their own stuff though.
And they lack the specific humour to play a song like that, being white girls and having this “seriousness” that the underground kids here have.
That’s ok, maybe my kind of humour is outdated??? I get (politically) corrected all the time by them…
For me, it’s just important to understand the “hiphop” vibe, as it relates to bass and drums.
I already found out that everything repeats endlessly, just like techno. But Hiphop is slower = easier to play.
I love the Tricky cover of Black Steel, that’s why I suggested to get them to sing it
Martina Topley-Bird 
This is the one Triky song I never heared before - love it!
It will be too commercial for the chicks … for them this will be old f@rt stuff!
Yep. She ruled and their falling out kind of ended my interest in his stuff. They were a great team but relationships with band members is rough.
Massive Attack - the other little band that Tricky was a part of - always had great female singers.
Ah, slowing getting there:
Including Martina
If you really want to push your rhythm skills, play along to some J-Dilla.
Superficially simple, but the timing is crazy tough. It is what Pino, D’Angelo, and Questlove were working to emulate on ‘Voodoo’.
Tribe Called Quest has Ron Carter featured heavily on ‘The Low End Theory’.
I’m a big fan of MF Doom.
I found the Tribe Called Quest surpringly interesting…
MF Doom ist too soft, sorry!
I guess it will be more like this:
And Liz Frasier, and Hope Sandoval…
”Paradise Circus” is played at least once a week here!
Love me some Bob Vylan!
We Live Here has a Tab on Ultimate Guitar of all things! WE LIVE HERE TABS by Bob Vylan @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com
Might want to look at this for straightforward Bass
Or do what I do and ignore anything not sampled before 1978 and concentrate on a Q-Tron and recycled Funkadelic and Issac Hayes riffs!!! Bonus points for Octaver and Fuzz!
If you think that’s good (it really, really is), check out The Spoils. Its another track she did with them about 10 years ago.
Actually, 9 year old Necrothread on Reddit but there are some jams on here

I will melt if I EVER listen to an Ed Sheeran song consciously!!!
It’s an unusual song certainly!
Not to forget this tab, which a friend of mine (RIP) made:
So, playing hiphop is very funny.
I keep smiling while playing, something laughing out loud (aka “LOL”, for the younger ones), cause: very very silly lyrics!
People in the park are asking, what kind of happy music I play. And I answer: hiphop, b#tch! .-)
Most hiphop tracks remind me of the 7 year old son of a friend.
He is in the “me me me!” phase, and when he falls down he waits until he has enough audience and cries loudly for his mother. Otherwise everything is owned by him, and nobody can play with his toys unless he says so. Mine!
Hiphop = same! It’s crying loud about nothing. Toys…
Good example:
Why the fuzz??? What’s the problem? I get that somebody did something and Tupac is not happy. But - what’s the actual issue?
I ask myself, if they really mean what they sing about, or are also giggling about it in the studio. Though: looking at the faith of both Tupac and Biggy, somebody appearently did not find it very funny!?
Worst is Eminem … whom I banned from all my playback devices. No free speech for him in my house
But: it gives me a lot of pleasure playing Tupac’s bass line(s). Well done (= sampled)!
