We're so lucky in the UK right now. We have some truly amazing artists. Little Simz and Dave are pure world class talents. I see little Simz as our Lauren Hill.
What I love about British HipHop is, like the blues in the early 60s, it’s heart is American, but great British artists took it, adapted it and made it quintessentially a British sound. Like the Stones and Led Zeppelin did with the blues. It’s not a straight rip-off copy, it’s a complete metamorphosis into a new British form, but still showing great respect to it’s American roots. Like The Beatles did with rock n’ roll. After all, the USA & the UK are STILL the finest originators of great music … admittedly with the odd exception.
It’s roots are wary more diverse than that. You mention Led Zep over the West Indiies Sound system culture, which is all over London( though being destroyed by gentrification) So yeah, much mitre influence from the West Indies & Africa than 70’s English prog rock!😂🤣🤣😜
@@donnalawson6236 if you read my post again, I’m only comparing the way British rap artistes made the art form their own, in the same way as Led Zep, The Stones, et al, did with American blues back in the 60s. That’s all I’m doing. It’s not about the wider influences of any artistes and certainly not about the the roots of any genre.
You do know that the person singing is not Little Simz right? It's Cleo Sol. Here's a video you might want to check out Sampa The Great - Time’s Up (feat. Krown) (Official Video) Sampa, she is a Zambian-born Australia-based rapper. Krown is an Sudan-born Australia based rapper. You're welcome!
4:32 Was that a ....? Hmmhm Should we explain ? Naaah I think plp on the comments will know ... They'll know ? Me: I didn't... Yess they would definitely know Me: I still don't know what you guys talk about CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN PLEEAAASE ???

@@Roblockdn Classius Clay. That track is a British Hip-hop rap masterpiece in my honest opinion! Would love to see a reaction from you both on that track. Both Dave and Avelino from that song are considered rap legends in the UK and Europe, Africa you will not be disappointed but extremely highly impressed with the levels of bars they come with, facts!!!
The Donna Summer line completely missed you young fellas :-) On the other hand the back and forth at 4:32 completely missed me... Had to find your explanation on another comment below. Speaking of queens... Donna Summer is the Queen of Disco

Imperial Leather is a brand of British soap!
Super old brand too. Been going years and well known to the UK
the best brand 😉
Yeah so I think that bar "tougher than Imperial Leather" means that she is a lot tougher than she looks.
I always thought she meant imperial being western colonisers and leather being skin.
I remember Jeffrey on Fresh Prince receiving it as a gift on his birthday from Hillary lol.

@@jakereis1491 she’s sick but she American
Tsk. It’s sad when people have to liken artists to other artists rather than just appreciate their talent
PLEASE check out Cleo Sol. She’s sooooo good. A more recent song by her that y’all would love is called When I’m in Your Arms. It GOOOOOEEEESSSSS.
Appreciate the love and support and thanks for the recommendation and we will definitely add it to the list......Rob 🔒
