Well, not to sound rude, but Eyeda (who recently passed away) SHOULD be number one on here - he's from Saint Paul, but Eyedea + DJ Abilities album, First Born is phenomenal...

TeachTheDead: St. Louis is a city in Missouri, while St. Paul is a city in Minnesota.

Well, Miles Davis was arguably one of the founders of hip-hop.

Shorty Da Kid - “Blow Ya Back Out”
Hollywood Colorz f/ Swagga Dagga - “Set ‘Em Out”
Ray Da Kid - “Jump Stupid”
Young Gunnz - “Hands On Deck”
(someone asked this question elsewhere recently)

IRepSTL.com appears to be a blog of all STL hip hop artists, including Tef Poe and WhiteOut.

Also, Lamar Harris seems to be doing something noteworthy.
