The problem with a lot of UK rappers is that there just thinking about there local club or the guys they know up the road/block when they make music. That’s the reason why UK hip-Hop will never be as big as the US.
Plus there's the accent thing, a lot of people don't like UK accents.
But I think Dizzee Rascal is ok, he's repping where he's from and he's getting paid for it so I give him props. He’s got skills and a good flow but I can't really see him breaking the US in a real big way.
I think a lot of UK acts just should stick to what they know and play it safe.
Cuz look at Craig David, I’ve never liked him but he was one of the biggest RnB Artists in the UK. But when he went to break the states, in the matter of a few months he came back to the UK with his tail in-between his legs acting like nothing happened. When every one knew he went over there and fell on his face and he came backing acting like he never left and was still the best. Wtf!!
Singing that weak shit, “what’s your flavour?, whoooooo Tell me what your flavour?”
(Shut the fuck up you fag!) & now he’s even more or a joke.
Dizzee should stay in the UK cuz that’s there his audience is.
