Atlanta musician A.Tone Da Priest's new album October Sky is extremely impressive. I have never heard a mix of so many different genre's sound so cohesive and non-forced.
He cites the likes of Sum 41, Outkast, and Nirvana as his influences and its apparent as he takes the risk alienating his hip hop fan base as he goes on a distortion driven journey.
I don't think I've ever seen a "rapper" with musical talent like this before, he plays guitar and bass for the full length, along with well delivered lyrics that have great substance and meaning unlike most rappers. (Exception: Lauren Hill, Andre)
Here are some of my favorites:
You (Fucked It Up)
Blue Sky
Commune
King of Indecision
Here is the whole album:

It would appear a typo has been made, you wrote 'da' when you clearly meant 'deaf'...
