    Gotta go with Waka Flocka's discography. He turned my "rock only" friend, so he's bound to turn you or whoever this is for as well!

    I guess it all depends on what genre they currently listen to.
    As @Five Star said, Waka Flocka has the energy to appease a rock fan (other great bands for that are Run DMC, Beastie Boys, Cypress Hill, NWA)

    As far as in general, some acts who I believe have quintessential discographies in Hip Hop are:
    The Roots
    Outkast
    Masta Ace
    CunninLynguists
    Kanye West
    Brother Ali
