im trying to broaden my rap music catalogue. if you could reccomend 5 uk artists who would it be?

[Lars]

Tough one...

Most Americans like S.A.S, Masai is feeling Dot Rotten, Ghetto/Ghetts and Kano who are more what we call "Grime" which is a 180bpm tempo as opposed to a more 90bpm "hiphop" one, personally I like Kyza and Klashnekoff.

There's a few to start at least.

appreciated, gon start listening now

trying to get away from the bullshit over here

[Lars]

There's a lot of bullshit here too, usually feel odd tracks by people rather than albums, as with most artists, I could have made the obligatory "Jehst, Rhyme Asylum, Loki" post every UK hiphop thread has but I tried to give you some I know other foreigners feel, there's more chance of you liking those somewhat...

[Certain]

S.A.S. is Strong Arm Steady, sir. Phil Da Agony is going to have to go across the pond to kick some British ass, it sounds like.

[Lars]

S.A.S from here are Mega and Mayhem, they have Nicki Minaj on their new joint, Coming To America II...

[Lucos]

I love Jehst and Chester P live, but they're not the best to try to try introducing those across the pond to...

Glad Kyza made your list though!

[Lars]

That's what I'm saying, I tried to give him some names I know heads already feeling out there. Masai is Australian so I don't know how credible you rate his music tastes, but I threw in some he liked for the lulz too :-)

[Lars]

Whens lennox lewis gonna drop an album

lmao its dropping the day after you win an SC, I heard?

[Mike Wrecka]

lmao I've no idea who that is... My best guess is you mean Mike Skinner from The Streets?

Either way, the answers a no, bruh...

ya thats who i meant. just about the only british hip hop artist i know of. some people over here liked his music

[Cashius]

A few years ago I listened to a few Loki tracks...kinda liked them.

[Lars]

Yeah?

He/They had more of a commercial sound, scored a number one record over here at one point, so I can definately see it.

They're not really my thing though, certainly not one of the first names I'd give out when thinking of UK hiphop.

I actually really like the Ty album "Upwards" if any of you are interested in checking it out. Without meaning any discredit to him, the guy reminds me of Roots Manuva, they were label mates and Roots features on the album too. It's probably quite old now, I love the vibe he has though throughout the whole thing.

Lucos you heard it?

[Frank Metts]

Confused as to what sc is ... but shit hugh laurie makes dope music why can't lennox

[Brian Bryan]

lmao my bad, it was the better looking Metts sister who failed to champ Albob Squarehead

[Frank Metts]

Really a sister throw in ... come baron your better then that on all acounts ... see what I did their you alias hoarder

rhyme asylum
fliptrix
lunar c
the shedmen
four owls

Seyance said most of them. Although I don't like Four Owls as a collective but from that Verb-T is amazing.

To add some older stuff I would put Lewis Parker, Ty, Juice Aleem, and New Flesh For Old.

[Baron Mynd]

I always liked Parker's beats more than his music.

Heh.

[Ghost1]
