I stopped checking for UK rappers a few years ago, so I can't contribute to this thread. I will say these British accents don't lend themselves to sounding dope on record. Especially when they're trying to use US slang.
Why didn't no'one mention Kano? He might make grime but he was dope. One of the few grime artists I actually liked around a decade ago. Who still remembers this?

Trillin is an underated album, those bars he done over that old crooklyn dodgers beat from the 90s smashed it. You listen to blade or fel? -
Too much grime being posted ere, grime aint hip hop.

Apart from a few artists, UK hip hop always sucked. It has always lacked authenticity, always one step behind the US. Only Euro hip hop that could compete with US hip hop was French hip hop and that's because radio stations overthere were obligated to play a % of homegrown sh*t. These Antillian, African and Arab French innercity youth also live in the same, if not worse, conditions as some of these kids in the projects of a city in the US.
There's a reason hardly any UK hip hop artist blew after all these years. This joint was dope back in the day. Who still remembers this joint?

This caught on after garage/ 2 step fell off because it was authentic. Doper than most hip hop produced in London FOH. Can't believe this dropped a decade ago. I'm getting old lol...

Listening to brittish slang & rap u wouldnt think its actually english. My guess also is that UK slang seems to derive from some african & possibily caribean type lineage.

That's because as an island we have a lot of docks where different cultures would come in to work on the dockyards. Its why uk is one of the most cosmpolitan countries in the world. -
