Brits suck at hiphop???!!! So Mark B and DJ Skitz' beats arent any good?
Blade isnt a good mc? Killer Kela isnt the closest thing to god when it
comes to beatboxing? the Scratch Perverts arent good dj's?
UK hiphop might not be as good as some of the stuff from the states, but
saying that they suck is ridiculous.
I really dont think you have a clue about what you're talking about.

What do you mean white guys have given up on trying to rap? Who exactly are
you refering to? Markey Mark and Vanilla Ice? I really dont think they
count...
There are loads of *very* good white mc's in the states, but since they dont
live up to any of the hiphop stereotypes you dont see them on MTV .. you
hardly even see them in The Source or Rap Pages.

Eligh, Dose, Sole, Esoteric, Cage, The Grouch, El-P, Buck65, Pedestrian and
Necro are all very white and most definetly havent given up on hip hop, and
theres more where they came from...
