If you haven't heard Jaga Jazzist, you need to. My favorite band, they are the most amazing synthesis of electronic music and jazz. Their harmonies and textures are so complex and varied, not to mention catchy as hell! Even though they're kinda moving in a post-rock direction lately, they're all fabulous musicians.

I recommend their "A Livingroom Hush" album.

Some representative (but weird as hell) music videos:

YouTube - Jaga Jazzist - Day

Most people here seem to disregard rap completely and I can see why because most of the genre is abhorrent garbage. BUT some of it I think is great, take this for example

YouTube - Nas -- One Love

I think there is a certain poetic beauty to the lyrics despite the crudeness of some of the language used and if you can look past the the "dirty words" aspect you can see a certain brilliance in the complex rhyme patterns and lyrical cleverness.
