You seem to like soul. Maybe more melodic rappers are you thing. Maybe gives song hell & back by bakar , sugar by brockhampton, peach Kevin abstract, cocoa butter kisses by chance the rapper and see if you like it more. My favourite rapper is Mick Jenkins definitely recommend “The Waters” by him. I’m also into guys like Isaiah Rashad, Kota the friend, 6lack. I’m sure you’ve tried the Kendricks and J Cole’s but maybe go check out their earlier work. Born sinner by J Cole has always been one of my favourite albums. I’ve never met someone who doesn’t like Run The Jewels. That’s like peak production and lyricism while still being fun af IMO. There’s so many different lanes in hiphop I feel like you’ll find your niche eventually if you keep an open mind

Broken bells, one of the people in broken bells is named danger mouse, he produces a lot of rap. He did an album with MF doom, it's called DangerDoom. I'd give that a try.
