Last UK album I got was Yungun & Mr Thing's Grown Man Business.

It had more replay value than most of the US CDs I've bought this year.

you american???


funny thing is...i know the guys jumpin in ere...aint heard shit from u.k......i listened to u.s hip hop 4 years...so im informed.....an iff i was just makin stupid statements id say u.k hip hop>>>>>u.s hip hop.....but we aint there just yet....but the west is dead.....

[Chief]

i have never heard a U.K hiphop track on the radio... hey maybe i heard dizzy rascal once or twice, but where the fuck is he now?

[SoCal Iz Active]

oh no I live in california so I automatically will defend rap coming from my state? i don't give a shit where the music is from but if it sucks, i call it how I see it. and no i have a friend who IMs me on MSN frequently and he wanted me to listen to some UK rap and that shit was garbage. I think I can say that no one in America gives a flying shit about goofy sounding fucks rapping. It sounds corny and lame.

And guess what: Everything the westcoast has done offsets anything your underground scene has done. Eat shit and die.

Nah, I'm from the UK, but I don't know as much about the homegrown scene as I'd like apart from some battered Hijack tapes from when I was 11.

The problem for me is finding new artists and then tracking down their CDs. I like HHC mag a lot - the US hip-0hop magazines pale in comparison. Where do you get your info from Mack?

[da_notorious_mack]

how many units the west moved this year?...

oh and dizzee's doin films blud..with an album out this year..

[Lord Funk]

Nah, I'm not downloading at the moment - moving flat so my shit's all over the place.

I'm not too much a fan of the grime kinda stuff, more the stgraight hip-hop - any albums you'd recommend?

besides your dick riding ass and anyone who lives in the UK, who listens to anyone from the UK? Exactly.

Who listens to the Westcoast? The whole world.

UK Rap = W A C K.

Oh no the westcoast hasn't sold much but who has besides the south? If record sales make a MC then 50 Cent is the Greatest of All Time because he went plat in one week. See how much sense that makes? Get off these worthless rappers dicks.

[Digital Pimpin']

The UK hip hop sound is all 'grime' and it's an acquired taste. There are a lot of up and coming artists and some have some lyrical ability but better than the West Coast? No way.
