UK's popular rappers might be more lyrical and make better music than a lot of the new mainstream rappers America has currently (which isn't saying much actually)

But against the American rappers that are actually known for lyricism.......yea it's really not that close at all.

vs




A couple people have mentioned this so I assume ya'll not trolling but I'm not seeing it.

Illmatic is the quintessential rap album of the 90's and a large amount of people say it's the goat rap album

Boy in da corner is the quintessential uk rap album (even though it's grime) and is basically the goat uk rap album (even though it's grime)

It's not hard to figure out the correlation we're making

Stop thinking everything has to be 1 for 1 like a bot

He's saying that because he's bringing skepta out who was trying to start a friendly UK vs USA clash session. He got bbk on him and skepta has the owl.

he's literally just being in tune and hyping his man up overseas.

I get it if he'll be saying this constantly but context matters
Because he’s phony

I do not agree with his statement, but we definitely have artists that can make better music, but not enough albums over a long period of time.


Ya’ll fukk with Knucks? I recently discovered him and he’s the only UK rapper besides Skepta who I can listen to an entire project of his. Dude is really special on the mic.

Kano is a top level UK lyricist with a very solid discography. If you can't get past their accents, then :yeshrug: but they do have spitters.

Not better than USA though...that's just crazy talk :comeon:

You know how I know they ain't shyt over there? Cause I never heard that name in my life until your post. And I been on the Coli daily for over a decade :flabbynsick:

Again speaking strictly about the younger generations but these dudes 31 and 27 and are what, top 3-5 in the UK far as popularity? Accents aside tell me they ain't spitting at a higher level than any US dudes their age that's actually getting love over here :manny:

Kinda prove my point though. The younger more lyrical dudes like Denzel and Cordae and even JID getting sidelined for the illiterate drug addicts. And a large section of the Coli actively hate all three :francis:

Even without a big US following, Dave still doing like 2.5 times as many streams a day as Denzel.

That Wireless Festival got nikkaz making threads about Tattoos and some home cooking generic shoutouts that artists do in every city. Y’all forgot to stream that album you were forcing yourself to listen to that came out on Friday.
