Phi-Life Cypher
Karl Hinds
Ummm....if you don't mind offending everyone around you, then Iron Bridge had some totally awesome tunes. And MC Pitman's first album is a total classic.

DJ format is worth a listen too
nice to see my good buddy getting love on here. He's the great grandad of uk rap and paved the way for scores of rappers.
Surprised theres been no mention (sorry if some HAS mentioned) of phi life cypher.
Also, pioneers in many ways. Stereo mc's.
Gunshot, hardnoise and hijack were great (i once turned hardnoise away from there own gig........ Oops). Ruthless rap assassins, demon boys and mc buzz b are well worth checking out.
Headcase lads are awesome. As is/was mc pitman.
Stig and respek ba rock the freestyle world.
I've never been into grime, but, the uk carved itself a great little scene!
Yeah forgot about Demon Boyz, good shout aa rec rec rec recca recca recognition
Stoked!

I did! me me me!
Speaking of (really) old school, I still love the intro to Derek B's Bullet From A Gun, and making a Phil Collins beat sound good....
I remember seeing Mark B and Blade in Sheffield years ago, and was surprised when one of them came over to me after the gig to give me props for smiling, when everyone else was trying to look gangsta ha ha.
All the Jehst albums should defo be listened to. The first Klashnekoff album too.
But as someone mentioned Harry Shotta up there, not quite hip hop but I feel obliged to post this:
Good to see Silver Bullet get a mention...
Not clicked all the links, hoping someone posted Akala in that school classroom?
Have Aspects been mentioned? Worth a listen.
kid acne. Yeah. The uk's got a real eclectic scene.

Yeah, he was one of the support acts for Scroobius, he was wicked.
Kate Tempest was the other...
Polarbear did that one too, it was great 🙂
2 pages and no love for Newports filthiest?
also DJ Yoda usually collaborates with americans...
and DJ Format loves MC Abdominal
I've always liked aspects.
Also Dogz and Sledz was what Million Dan from the demon boyz released in 2006
DJ format's albums are always worth a listen. Canadian rapper on this one, Abdominal who's wicked, but uk DJ.
