As far as who I like, nobody up and coming really. Roots Manuva, Ty, Foreign Beggars and some Syntax and Akala. Naturally I also believe Adam Hussain to be the UK's best MC. |

I forgot about GLC
Nice one, only one I'm familiar with is Akala. Not a fan of that Road Rap stuff that people have been doing. Kept & Koran, Giggs etc. I can't think of much genuinely good Hip-Hop from here. |

Cheers for all of those mate. Not heard of any of them (thought I knew Asher D but it's a different guy to the one from so Solid) but I'm listening to some now on YouTube, took people here ages to start using their own accents.
Could count MF Doom as UK Hip-Hop tbh. |

Do so again and we are over fam. No joke.

Bit of dub in his music and using the Jamaican accent takes him nicely away from the kinds of British delivery I don't like Foreign Beggars have some sweet beats and went a bit dance/dubsteppy, but earlier stuff worth a listen, Dr Syntax is the white guy you can hear on this track with them, he's a middle class joker who raps about A levels, not having girls, being white and uncool and working pointless bureaucratic jobs etc, he's alright, but a good one to drop if you happen to hear one of those conversations where a bunch of aforementioned whiteys are discussing the gangster credentials of Scarface or Eazy E. |
