UK Grime:
>More meaningful than US trap+rap
>still disrespects women but nowhere near as much
>way fucking less racial polarity. Whiteboys can rap or be a G, no discrimination.
>Less bullshit drama between rappers to get media attention
>Rap about relatable fucking issues like social norms as opposed to "Money, bootey, whips, Gucci, fuggin traphouse licks Nigga"
>Beats usually DnB or have fuckin sexy Wobbly bassline
>Average rapper is aware of the real world, how they appear, dress like normal human beings and are not glorified apes with 80 iq
Grime is 100x better than US Trap+Rap.
Prove me fucking wrong.
You can't.
You also have the advantage that its 2am across the pond and all the Britfags are asleep.

Grime ain't even rap/hip-hop though. It's rooted in jungle and garage. You can't compare it.
counterpoint: the only grime that matters is bbk
also rapping about relatable issues doesnt mean the rap is good you fucking racist dipshit
How come england keeps ripping off US hip-hop and pretending they invented a new "genre".

Grime rappers are completely inferior. They lack many things that makes U.S rappers as popular as they are. Arguing this would take too much effort because your opinion is so damn wrong
>>68246904

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f10yTpZzuv4 this is whats popular atm

Call me when there is a grime record of this caliber. There is a reason there is no "political grime" or "conscious grime"
>>68247087

Still waiting for you to point out the inferiorities Anon
Literally 90% of "grime" music is just People from London rapping over Atlanta trap beats
>>68247239

You're right. I wouldn't call them grime artists, just trapper clones
>>68247239

JME, the Good Guy of grime.
Basically the Uk's B.o.b.
Before b.o.b. went flat-earth crazy.
British rap vocals are unbearable.
It's honestly cute to hear a british person rap about slinging coke and getting poon-tang.
>>68247351
This is pretty great.
>>68247302
still sounds like >>68247239

Asa and Sorrow - Island Wave

>>68247302
Op here. Dizzee rascal's only song that wont give you ear cancer is Bonkers.
>>68247658
