yea i dnt think the accent helps as people just aren't used to it but that will come in time when people here it more and more !
But its just the people who constantly spit bullshit and longwinded multi's and all that bullshit and after 3 mins they havent really said anything, and its always the same the beats sound the same and whether its a happy or sad song their voice sounds the same !
A lot of the people in the scene act pissed off at not getting recognition but imo its a very select few that would deserve any anyway !

this is what pisses me off tho... you're like "its always the same the beats sound the same and whether its a happy or sad song their voice sounds the same"
that just shows that you don't listen to everything cos thats completely untrue... i see where you're coming from, cos i used to think this... the same lo-fi sounding tracks with a bad piano sample or sumthing... but its not true at all... its just what certain people expose people too...

No i don't listen to everything, but im basing an opinion on wot i have listened to, and thats wot i think of what i have heard, the skinnyman album woz quite original in that i thought he tried to put an album together and make songs that people could get into, hes not as good a rapper as someone like jehst but hes so much more entertaining imo !
If you have anygood UK stuff i will give it a listen no doubt but its a shame that the uk scene is even like this with quite a few UK members not just me saying they don't listen to much UK stuff ! From what ive heard a lot of the stuff is awful casio presets with people rapping over them tho that tends to be channel U, and a lot of the big names in the underground tend to go for like you said lo-fi drums with a dodgy piano sound, which i ok and their solid beats but they aren't that original or amazing imo a lot of them sound like cheap dj premiers, don't get me wrong i have heard good beats from the UK tho i probably couldnt name them and there are lots of ppl who listen to it more than me so they have probably got a much broader view of it but thats my opinion and observations !
Beserk not sure if u seen my other post but i seen a mixtape cover u did for joe gutta and that woz dope !
lol, dont take ANY notice of cotdamn channel u..
you need to do more research before passing judgement on the scene...and people saying they dont like the accent is pathetic, if you forgotten what hip hops about? hip hops an international language, since when has hip hop degraded people who have certain accents....pshh...

its not pathetic i know wot they mean its different hearing it like that so its harder to get into eventually people will become used to it and it wont b a big thing !
But yea i will have to listen to more stuff that doesnt make wot i have heard so far any better and thats what i commenting on !
like guru said "its moslty the voice"
u could be the illest writer with a good flow but if ur voice(tone, accent, delivery) is weak im not feeling u.
the other mystery element many uk emcee's lack is presence on the mic, alot of dudes shout and curse but that dont give u prescence.
I feel alot of uk artists need to develop more individuality because there aint enuff uninique voices in uk hip hop thats why the scene is bland cos dudes all sound the same.

I agree with that J, another thing i noticed in uk hip hop is that woteva the skill level they don't seem to b able to make good songs like they are all about the same thing either how hard they are, how much of a struggle everything is or something equally depressing ! its like make a song about something normal the big US artist make songs about things and it song has a rap thats actually about something ok not all of them do but ya know wot i mean and again im sure u'll point out that there are albums and artist like this but im going on what ive heard etc !

hmmm...
I can't really comment on 'UK Hip Hop' all too much because I've never cared to take a listen to it. It's 'almost' like wanting to hear 'brits' do salsa music. No disrespect. I guess when I'm in the mood I'll listen to some UK 'heat'?
Let me know who represents UK Hip Hop the fullest. And I'll listen.
