I like wretch32


there is only like 5-6 dudes that I like, the rest is just people trying to copy american rap.

French rap scene is good, but few people speak french here so most will never know lol

 

[Torrential]

^Yeah. I don't really speak any other language besides english. A friend of mine put me on Akala, Lowkey and a few other British MCs. I'm pretty impressed with their bars.

Any good UK Hip-Hop release in 2012 so far...

 

[Spurs91]

There is no UK 'Hip-Hop' as such. Grime is a different type of sound, all i can suggest is going on other forums or checking out names like wiley, skepta, wretch 32, JME, Frisco, Giggs. I dont like any of it but those are some names i hear

"Knowledge is power" mixtape by Akala. thank me later

 

[Turenne]

Akala is meh to me, anything else?

 

[Insensitive]

I always assumed Grime was UK Hip Hop, just a different take on the original American Hip hop.
Hard hitting beats and a lot of energy just dope.
Drop that knowledge on UK cats.
I might post up one dude I find to be amazingly talented.

 

[Spurs91]

Wouldnt say Grime was hiphop at all. Just because its a type of 'rap'

I was when I saw he had more views than nipsey's version, but maybe ol' girl in the purple pants had something to do with that
