From my other comment

Pretty much all of Griselda and the dozen or so artists under their umbrella. Billy Woods & the rest of the Backwoodz Studios group are incredibly boom-bap inspired, not to mention all the "lofi" artists rn who are pretty much just old school rap. Turn off the radio and stop listening to algorithm-created Playlists and you'll realize that there are still active artists in pretty much any subgenre of music you can think of

This is also ignoring The Alchemist and all of the artists he works with, who's basically doing what El-P did in the early 2000s

Thank God for this thread. I was floundering for new stuff for my long commute.

No worries, I'd personally recommend Billy Woods's album from last year Aethiopes if you like more serious and lyrical stuff. It's one of my favorite rap records of all time since listening to it
