When was Pitbull a rapper ? 

 
Not really upbeat but seems resemble your music in terms of lyricism. Diabolic's album Liar & A Thief is pretty good IMO. Might also want to check out Vinnie Paz and the groups his in (Army of the Pharaohs and Jedi Mind Tricks).

I'm not a big fan of the genre, but De La Soul's "3 Feet High and Rising" has been making me happy for over 20 years.
