The Streets (UK)
« on: April 11, 2002, 03:34:52 AM »
Doubt any US peeps have heard of this guy yet but to all the UK peeps in here what do you think of this guy? Personally, from what i've heard so far I think he's whack. I'm not a big fan of UK hip-hop anyways but this guy doesn't interest me in the slightest. They're calling him the english 'eminem' (a term that seems to be just thrown around these days) but thats obviously just because he's white.

Anyways, for those who want to check him out you can d/l his new single "Lets Push Things Forward".

That track is alright, kinda different. But it's garage music, not UK Hiphop!

Never heard it but Id love to check out some UK hip hop.  If anyone has access to this, can you hook us up on WCC, FTP on IRC?

Thanks

Some of it should be on Kazaa or Audio Galaxy. Look for stuff by, Mark B & Blade, Blak Twang, Roots Manuva, Rodney P, Taskforce, Mud Fam & Out Da Ville.

There's tons more talented peeps over here but I can't think of anymore at the mo. If you wanna buy some check out www.suspect-packages.com

He (they?) isn't garage, is he (they?)? Surely that isn't garage? Don't sound like it to me anyways, sounds like UK
hip-hop to me. Anyways, I do like the little hook, but thats about it, he's not a very nice MC  :P

There aren't uk peeps who do gfunk, it wouldn't be real. UK stuff is hiphop, not really gangsta rap.

i wrote a long arse post on this shit at the dpg forum once, ppl were talkin about the dpg uk and shit like it was gonna be a seperate label for uk artists, i had to explain that it would be more like death row uk where it's only to promote dpg merchandise in the uk, and the main thing i comented on was that if daz were to make a dpg uk label for uk artists it wouldn't go down very well because it aint as eazy to call urself a gangsta here than it seems to be in the US, maybe sum1 from america should make an underground label here though...just to give peeps overseas the kind of help and production they need...cos its like whatever dre duz it blows up...so if sum1 big started to rep overseas then we could start to blow up...but that aint never gonna happen in my opinion...especially when too many ppl are tryna act like gangstaz instead of bein themselves...

anyways back to the point...if this is the song i think then it aint rap or garage its just a guy from the UK talkin, it don't fit under any of the 2 styles mentioned in this post...

i aint really a big fan of uk hip hop either...only shit i really bump is blade...cos he don't try to pretend to be sum1 he's not just to sell...he likes be more true and instead of pretendin to be hard or whatever he just raps about what life is like for a uk rap artist...his album kind of lays down his life in the rap game so far if u know what i mean....i can't b arsed explainin it now....maybe i'll do it another post sum time...

well, g-funk is just a music style, as long as u do it with ur heart its real.

Artists is entereiners, and for an example, snoop have said that 50 % of his lyrics is fiction, so as long as u dont lie i think its ok.

and problems with drugs and violence excist everywhere..

Well their calling this guy the 'british' eminem....& even though he's not really flowing well he's still rapping, lol. Ahh I dunno, as i've said i'm not a big fan of UK hip-hop but I definately wouldn't label this garage...but I would label it UK hip-hop.
