Grime is a form of electronic dance music.
Rapping is something you do. Most Grime MC's vocal a range of music but that doesn't mean Grime isn't it's own genre. Plus actual Hip-Hop has always been on the mix CD's.
All of the MC's are s
hit anyway and don't define the genre.

Well, they did...
Grime can mean two things.
Umbrella term for British made Hip-Hop which would include people like Giggs, or, the actual genre which would not.
The majority of people would go with the first one. You can't tell me records like Wiley's Ice Rink are 'rap' or not something completely new.
