Oh sure, you can have those opinions..
But they are still naieve and full of shit when it comes down to reality.

Which is why I said, if you were to express those opinions anywhere else, people would make a mockery of you and you would be seen as a naieve moron...

Just informing you of this now before you embarras yourself later...

the only reason lame American rappers r in the mainstream iz bcuz ppl r buying their albulms....... ever since Pac and Biggie, lames that wanna keep their street cred. without livin in the hood have made whack albulms about how othe rappers r fake and they keep it real in the hood..... if little ignorant ass kids stopped buying their albulms, they'd stop making them, and u'd think better of US rap..... the only way to get to know what rel US hip-hop iz like iz to look past the mainstream and search for the underground rappers...... look for the lyricists...... we're here........

Leady stop being ignorant bro.

Worldwide rappers are better than rappers. It doesnt matter were yoru from.

Americans have foundation setters and are fucking creative.

If you are correct that americans have nothing on UK heads, and that rap has been in UK since the 80's, then why isnt UK the for front of rap?


Think again bro, your posting some ignorant shit.

LOL....well personally I find U.K hip hop to be a tiny bit better, cuz a lot of the more mainstream rappers in the U.S. are club rappers, if u compared our Underground to U.K's mainstream however I believe that there would be some great battles and that possibly our Underground could win...we should orchestrate that besides tha rap Olympics...and televise it lol

i kinda like US & UK hip-hop equally really. i like US emcee's like apathy, vinnie paz, tonedeff, evidence from dilated peoples, zion I, DL incognito etc. but then alot of you US head havent hurd UK hip-hop so you cant say that its wack. listen to harry love, yungun, lewis parker, klashnekoff (who is better than most US emcee's if you ask me), Jehst, Braintax, Out da ville, Genesis Elijah, the list goes on. thats real UK stuff, and can be easily compared to the best US hip-hop

Wow, reading this thread I found a lot of fucking stupid comments.

My main focus would be on Natural killa for the whole "I hate the accent" remarks. The fact that you base your opinion on US rap being better than UK rap on that point alone is ridiculous. US people are almost certainly going to favour US rap to UK rap by accent alone because they are used to their own accent because that is what they have been speaking their entire lives. Vice versa, UK heads will most likely prefer the UK accent as it is what they are used to. And so on with all other rappers from places other than US or UK, they will favour their own accent to others.

I would base my opinions on the following, US rap music has better beats to it, you can get into nodding your head along to the beat and shit better with US rap. UK rap though, for me has better lyrical content as UK rappers tend to not focus on "stereotypical gangsta" lyrics. Not that US rappers all do this, but a fair percentage of them produce mainly all songs involving shooting people, or fucking bitches and shit like that. That for me shows that they are narrow-minded and only think that those kind of songs will sell, or they don't have the intellectual capability to produce a "dope song" that is not based around those type of concepts.

Plus, you can't really compare the two to show who is better, because both have different styles. To say that one is better than the other overall, you would have to take a US rapper and a UK rapper who have identical styles, or a majority of them and compare them together. Because US rap is all like "R 'n' B and Hip Hop" whereas the UK rap tends to be its own style which is "Garage".

Both have their own style, and both adapt their styles well to their music, so when it comes down to it neither is better than the other. It just comes down to personal preference really, and the fact that the US is a much larger country size wise and economically wise they can mass produce more and sell in different countries. Majority of UK rappers don't get heard in as many countries and there aren't as many in the UK as there are in the US, that further shows that nobody can really base one as being better than the other.

The only way people can look at one being better than the other is down to personal preference. But in the grander scale of things, US rap is NOT better than UK rap, and UK rap is NOT better than US rap. The US rap is more "POPULAR" and that is soley down to it being larger than UK rap, US has more artists, it is a larger country and has more money, bigger production labels with resources to produce and sell globally.
