Check out moorish delta 7, youtube it they are a british rap band simular to getto boys their best song was silent scream i dont know how well british urban slang will translate but md7 are quite americanised at times also their song levels is quite original (i dont have much interest in rap except the more ballady american stuff and some uk stuff in general)
If you search british rap on wikipedia a lot of the early uk rappers either were hardcore or had jazz elements, worth a read
