Thing is Caspar, that parts of Britain are Ghetto. Some parts are even on a scale with the states. You know what i'm saying?

As for Dizee tho, he's on some kind of Garage tip. It's interesting, but it ain't proper hiphop.

I'm not a fan of british rap, but Dizzee Rascal is an exception because he's a lyrical genius. To truly appreciate how good he is you need to listen to his album, some of the stuff he's released hasn't showcased even a tenth of his skill.

Casper: I'm not sure what psyche you're in, but if you have this stereotypical image that all us british walk around greeting each other with "tally ho's" and exchanging crumpets it couldn't be further from the truth. Crime in the UK is out of control. There are more slums/ghetto's then there are anything else. I've been stabbed twice living in my area and I just keep myself to myself. Trouble finds you one way or another.

Hah, parts of teh UK are tough. The only reason ya'll think it isn't is cause you are sterotypical bastards... Come on, It has so many cities... Cities lead to corruption, Corruption leads to mobs, gangs... Those lead to drugs and violence... There is no way you can say UK aint tough. It is not US tough, but one of its own

Some people can be so naive. Just because a country doesn't explode with aggression doesn't mean it isn't there.

If what some of you guys is saying is true, I guess the Middle-East isn't tough, no? People only die by the thousands in war, but since they don't have any rap stars, I guess they're just not tough. People in North Africa are executed just for speaking ill of the government, but since you don't see any rap stars representing North Africa, I guess they're just not tough.

Think before you speak, please. It saves you the stupidity.

Hear this! I been through the ghettos in NY and Washington - minor! I was bowlin round there on my own, people were friendly! Didnt see no beef, and i was there for 4 weeks. Okay, for you lot its easy to hook up a gun, squeezin a trigger dont take much balls, drive bys!? LOL! You lot are truly fearless! You come walk through moss side, housing estates in Hackney, Brixton. People have guns, but more likely mans gettin stamped in the head til it brakes, cut in the face with a broken bottle, stabbed to death. Or you could go see Millwall play 'soccer'.

Yo, You Need To Come To My Sides Of London. Come To Brixton, Hackney, Hounslow, And Peckham, Thats Where I Mostly Hang Around. I Would Say It Is Ghetto Personally.
