Hello, i'm new to this forum so i apologise in advance if I have posted in the wrong topic.
 
I'm looking for some headphones that will be good for Old Skool Rap/80's Groove/90s Rap. My current headphones (Senheiser HD 205) are okay, however the bass can be at times quite muddy and it requires some heavy work on an EQ for it to work. My previous headphones were the Bose OEs, these were great in terms of quality but lacked bass. I don't mind about sound leakage too much, as I have a different set of headphones for outside. Here are some sample songs of the music i listen too:

The music quality of these links may not be the best due to getting them off youtube. As you can see i would like some bassy headphones (the first link is the genre I listen to the most) however i would like them to be flexible (if this is not possible i do not mind. I have a budget of around 150-200, however obviously I don't want to spend the whole 100 percent. I'll be going to a music store one day to test some headphones. Thanks in advance! Also, don't mention beats, I'm not interested.
