Loefah, Matty G, 6Blocc and more are all hip hop influenced dubstep. Dubstep with good rapping over it is rare though. The 6Blocc/Myka9 collab was good but I was hoping for something totally bugged out like the track Myka did with Prefuse 73. I could imagine Rifleman, Busdriver or Pterradacto go off hard on a dubstep track.
Apart from some Grime stuff the only good rap stuff that comes to mind is Nebulla & DJ Dore. That 12th Planet track with Ras Kass is also pretty good.

Id rather see an actual Hip Hop artist get with the dubstep program instead of the normal self conceded "artists".
C'mon, wouldn't you rather here lyrics more like this?.....

This dude is pretty dope. He has two or three tracks where he spits over dubstep.
i predict its only gonna be a few more months until your average indie music fan in ohio starts listening to dubstep, largely because of hiphop crossovers. i mention dubstep to anyone i talk to about music and they always say "what the hell is that"? just a little longer and we can get more defensive and elitist nah but for real its gonna be awkward hearing akons voice over some wob wob on the radio. we all have such a personal attachment to this music its hard to let it go

Round my area its already started, you now get a load of Indie skater kids listening to it on their phones. I remember when i used to go on about dubstep and nobody cared or knew what i was talking about. Then all of a sudden everyone loves it. I agree hearing someone like Akon's voice over a track would be awkward after getting attached to the sound but im sure alot of dubstep producers wont go that way.

Pop Dubstep producers will inevitably work with big rappers/R&B singers. Mainstream American black music is in a poor state and is desperate for a few good ideas (no hate, this is just a particularly bad down time). Most tracks will probably be pretty bad (although that Wayne/Pharell wobbler with the Chuck D sample was straight up awesome).
On the underground tip, the possibilities are much more exciting.

Not the track in the post title, the one lower down called "Yes".
Good looks. Don't try to download the track though. The download link is dirty.

hip hop sold out in the 90s mate. MCs from Hip-Hop are cool but a dubstep riddim/tune is different from the pop song structure favoured by modern rappers. if they could host a bit better that would be cool, let the music breathe.
