My oppinions....UK Heads are better than US at the mo...The only Skillful MCs US have at the mo are the peeps from Def Jux, and the peeps from rawkuz...

Dont bitch about it if u got less than 400 posts...cuz more than likely u wont know who im talkin about....

low life records is great. don't forget to metion ty though. he's good too. did an excellent album called upwards. but yeah, british mc's can be just as good as us one's, and a lot of them are better. it's just they don't get as much coverage or nething, so you don't really get to know about them that much. some uk rappers piss me off though when they try and blatently emulate a us commercial style, even down to trying a slight american accent. one thing i hate though, is blazin squad. u americans are ok cos u don't have to deal with them. but they really do suck. all started when they ripped off tha crossroads by bone thugs n harmony, but cocked the whole thing up. since then they've just got worse. uk hipo hop's seriously underated though, and u lot in the us should track some of their stuff down. it's well worth it.

Well all british rappers, are better than that rock band The darkness. Some british people have really bad teeth. But, Just jack has a rexixed song called Snowflakes. It's british but, it's good.

'some british people have really bad teeth'

yeah, that maybe so, but isn't America the nation with the most obese people? and why do you think that is? i'm not hating, i'm just proving a point..don't be so stereotypical..you wouldn't like some doushebag who knew diddly squat about different cultures slagging your nation off now would you? you diss because you are too immature to understand..

not hating or anything..lol mo fo!

I'm just saying some of them don't give a damn about brushing. I'm not dissing them it's just something I see a lot.

well, thats fine..but you shouldn't stereotype a whole race..

Lol....FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT......

Now thats British.!!

The teeth thing is alllways the worst stereotype, it does become comical hearing it.

I admit UK Hip Hop should really speak up for itself though :rolleyes:

Kid - your a fucking moron .. Jesht, Kalashnikov, Braintax, Rodney P, MUD Fam, Roots Manueva, Skribbla, Non Thespian .. there's plenty of dope as fuck british heads out there, yes - their underground .. but how are you going to say "If their so good why arent they signed?" - they ARE signed, just because their not mainstream doesnt mean their wack you stupid fucking cunt.

^^Nicely put

Yeah, Fuck me..Iv been preachin UK Hip Hop 4 quite some time now...Hes got the message across in one Post...

All the time iv been on RB, Iv never seen Demik boast...!!

Because I don't boast....I'm cool headed :rolleyes:

lol...Exactly...

ive never heard a british rap before but it would probaley SOUND WEIRD TO ME

Then, after a few times listening to a couple of songs, ud get used to it...!!

RAP ON THE BRITISH!

yes we may be a nation of tea sippers, and a few of us may have damn horrid teeth and gums but give us the benifit of the doubt..if you don't know shit, then dont diss it?

why had no-one mentioned tony rotton aka blak twang? he made a few sales last year.

apart from him:

jehst
roots manuva
phi life cypher
outdaville

have all got more lyrical skill, more originality and better delivery than about 95% of mainstream US rappers. its just that the american audience is so fucking self-involved that many of them are unable to open their minds the fraction of an inch it would take to enjoy uk hip-hop.

british trap is juss flat out WHACK and blaze need to quit

LOL...Maestro...

Any UK Heads know who maestro is yeah...!!

Kid..u made urself look Herbish..!!

There's loads that are good actually. You've obviously just heard some mainstream without digging past that.

And Dizee Rascal is very good for what he is.

Furthermore, the Aussie accent is just as funky, if not more than the UK one. I've heard some UK ones which are plain and don't reveal the 'UK-Jamaica' roots too much. But they're not pretending to be something they're not (American).

Oh, but yes, the accent is the problem. Which goes along with the perception of the UK of people abraod (especially Americans).

But to say 'they're not good' is kind of ignorant. And narrow minded. One may not find an artist their taste, but should still be able to appreciate what that person is doing. His/her talent.

Agreed..!! ^

UK rappers are pritty decent, but really it's the accent, it just add's the shit quality unfortuantly

[QUOTE=Lyrical_Sniper]Look there aint any good british rappers out there, the best we prob got is dizzie rascal, and even he aint that hot. and dont even get me started on blazing squad. I just feel like moving to america just to be near some decent rappers. Dose any1 else feel my frustration!!!![/QUOTE=supaEskiboy] na man i av 2 disagree their. the brish talnt is poppin now and i thing that they deserve some respect.

If british rap is so hot why is it only you british who say it's good? Face it, British hip hop won't get recognized in the US anytime soon, even if some of them rappers are good. Maybe you all can relate to that shit cuz youre from england, but we cant. Your rappers don't have as much street credibility as most US rappers. Why would I or anyone else living in a city like Chicago listen to hip hop from england, which is probably 10 years behind the US in hip hop? Besides, there are about, what, two white rappers who are good in the US hip hop industry. You really think the US hip hop audience will listen to someone who is white and from england? no shit, I know I wouldn't.

^Contrary to popular belief *ahem*...the UK isn't full of just white people.

And you've missed the point. It's the stigma attached to any hip-hop outside US. Which is done in English. Esepcially the UK.

And therefore, as you said, people in the US will find it hard to find a 'link' between themselves (their lives, tastes etc) and UK rappers in general.

It isn't ten years behind. Except maybe in terms of mainstream coverage. Maybe.

On a final note. I know a fair few people from the US who listen to UK Hip-Hop. As well as US hip-hop. And people in France (probably the biggest hip-hop scene outside US) have much respect for UK hip-hop.

I still gotta say you all have to go check out some real British rap from the Streets.

I didn't make that clear The Band called The Streets. I got questions about rappers on the streets of London last time.

We dont want you to like Our Hip Hop....

bigg ez's got a point. and besides, i'm sure u don't give a crap if we like us mc's either. as long as you get to hear then. as for stark saying we're ten years behind, that belief would be entirely relative to what you like in terms of hip hop. uk hip hop isn't afraid to try new things, so in that respect in can be far ahead of a lot of commercial us stuff, some of which has stayed stagnant for years. so saying we're ten years behind is a point you can't really prove at all, specially considering you'e most liekly never heard nehting by anybody uk before. as for the accent thing, i've heard that us ladies love our accent, so i'm sure you guys could proabbly learn to bear it at least enough to hear what we have to say.

what bout blak twang, paragon and phi-life cypher are good for UK?

who are they. i've never heard of them, are they on kazza?

im from the UK and to all the peeps that sed that were better than alot of USA artists lets be realistic, i would love to support UK hip hop but apart from the artists i mentioned above the stuff we put out is whack as fuck. to be honest i would rather listen to people like saian super crew and i cant even fucking understnsd what they saying coz they french.

i think its the british/londonish accent that makes uk acts sound shit

Where's My Aussie Hip Hop Thread!? :huh:

Oh YEAH! Now i know..We're kickin shit like womb chillers down here for real! haha...

On the accent tip..its the most ridiculous shit i've ever heard...Its tougher for us to work with what we have evidently...the fact is UK people musn't have worked themselves into it enough & or musn't have the skillz to do that...Aussies are killing shit here simply for the fact that they are dope as fuck and rip a mic no matter what! :spit:

Pz..

British Hip Hop heads with Skillz:
Phi Life
Kalashnikoff
MUD Family (SkinnyMan)
Zionnoiz (WariYah, Broken Silence, Solid R.O.C.K. Richy D)
Rodney P
Riddla the Villain
4's and 3's

Shyt, haven't even scratched the surface yet!!!

Ya they're on Kazaa. Download bands like the Streets and all these others mentioned. Just Jack even.
