Hmm...I listen mostly to Jazz (most forms of), Lounge, Hip-Hop music (selected forms of) and R&B.
O? May I ask who?
Public Enemy, De La Soul, Run-D.M.C., Will Smith (90's I guess...)
The only 80's rap I really listen to from that decade, then you have other contemporary rappers that have an 80's-ish sound. X-Ecutioners, Jurassic 5, Del the funky homosapien, etc.
Counting Crows, Matchbox 20, Say Anything, The Killers, Muse, Smashing Pumpkins (their older stuff only), Weezer, and I am a big fan of classical music.

Not bad choices at all. I've always liked Will Smith (Fresh Prince & DJ Jazzy Jeff) because they're positive. Jazzy Jeff has been my favorite DJ since 85' (along with QBert)...If you can get your hands on Jazzy Jeff's "A Touch Of Jazz" 12" versions, it's a keeper.
May I suggest A Tribe Called Quest since you listen to De La Soul. As a fan of X-Ecutioners (formerly X-Men) take a dive into "Deep Concentration. As a fan of Jurassic 5 you may be interested in Laid In Full.
