Now, I'm not in the UK, but until I became aware of the UK rap scene, I could count the rap artists I liked on one hand. Two examples that flat-out LEAP to mind are:

Akira the Don and Dan Le Sac (vs Scroobius Pip)

But soft! What rock through yonder window breaks? It is a brick! And Juliet is out cold.

Please tell me this thread isn't going to be about how much better UK hip-hop is than American shit...

Apples and oranges. The two artists I put up there really don't fit into the hip-hop genre.

I'm just surprised there hasn't been a "The UK Rape Scene" snowclone yet. Are snowclones back in fashion?

...weird. I was listening to Thou Shalt Always Kill just a few days ago.

^^dan le sac vs. Scroobius Pip sound pretty hip-hop to me.

UK hip-hop needs to be developed further in tv tropes because of how much more popular it is than it was years back and the prominence of Stormzy, Santan Dave etc
