Before anyone start to say i'll say it "the fucking flute again"

[alloneyburris]

Man I don’t know one American listening to uk rap.

[kevin_sull]

Why are you talking to KSI about this?

[DrPlague_]

Definitely disagree American Rap always has and continues to dominate the rap industry

[CallumPage]

The UK has ALWAYS had some of the biggest musicians, it’s only rap where it hasn’t.

[Steez]

I’ve been listen to UK rap since 2020 & it slowly grew on me & I only have about maybe 2 friends who I know who genuinely like it. 😅

[AndrewAlexander-ed]

Anybody here rate Ren? He’s not particularly mainstream, but he’s ridiculously talented.

[Ze_Pequeno.]

The UK is not even the biggest in Europe, it still is French rap. In Anglo-saxon nations it might not be that popular, but in Francophone Africa and Africa in general, Southern Europe, Western Europe French rap is bigger and had been the most influential European rapstyle

[zoro_the_navigator]

I would pick recycled UK drill music over any mumble rappers tbh

[melvin]

What the fuck is he talking about. Took me a solid minute to think of a UK rapper’s name in my head. The US still sets the bar

[My_youtube_acc]

I’m from the uk and only listen to American rap. There’s the odd couple of ok UK tracks but not many.

[davidistakinganap]

Lmao UK rap will never be as good as American rap.

[theannihilator]

Can we just say they both good in their own regard? Or we gonna be a bunch of children?

[ajthaicy]

The only good UK rap is from Sir Savage the 21st

[owenmarshalek]

I’ve tried to get into UK rap cause the beats be better but the actual rap itself…eh really ain’t nothing special

[prod.byMali]

i’m from UK and i think Usa rap is better and always will be, but Uk rap isn’t bad by any means

[cube_]

It’s weird to hear a person that doesn’t have no connection to the culture ask someone from another country this question.

It is not a question. It’s gossip.

[sleek]

To americans who want yo listen to uk rap but can't understand:
Akala FITB
Logic FITB
Doc brown FITB
(FITB-Fire in the booth)

[questqrewtracer]

Why do people always have to ask "what is BETTER?"
Both can be amazing, they're just different.
To me it's nearly the same question as "What is better, rock or hip hop?"
If you enjoy it, you enjoy it, end of dicussion in my op.

[kboogaard]

There’s only one good rapper from the UK forgot I’m his name but I think he’s from staines.
