Hello, Hello. My names Terry and I'm a law abider
There's nothing I like more than getting fired up on beer
And when the weekends here I to exercise my right to get paralytic and fight

"Iron Of It All" by The Streets

The Streets is why the British aren't allowed to rap. Ever.

Ampere - "Now We Rise, And We Are Everywhere"
As the bombs fall I will be there, as there will be no one to know that we're living. There will be no one to know that we're dying.
As the bombs go off, I'll protect you if you'll protect me and we'll be laid next to mom and dad.

Atara Teenage Riot - "Deutschland Has Got to Die"
Deutschland has gotta die!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Circle Takes the Square - "Patchwork Neurology"
That scent says more in memory.

I Hate Myself - "And Keep Reaching for Those Stars"
I wanna be in a motorcycle gang, green and mean, and fucked up all the time. Picture me on the back of a Harley, leather clad and bad, and driving 55.

Barry White- "Can't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe"
I've heard people say that too much of anything isn't good for you, baby. But, I don't know about that. As many times as we've loved, and shared love, and made love, its, it doesn't seem to me like it's enough; it's just not enough baby, it's just not enough.

The Vandals - "How They Getcha"
Deception, they lie and they propragandize
They prey on weakness from the seekers of a better ****ing life and bleed them dry
Promise and faith to hook the ****ing bait
Until they've got you where they want you and they pull your strings and taunt you everytime
I call shenanigans, it's un-American
Lies, lies, lies!
Someone should do something, a day of reckoning
It's a lie
That's how they getcha!

I'm sorry but you definitely do not know what you are talking about.

Piss Me Off · 07-30-2008, 04:55 AM

It's barely rapping is it? Still pretty annoying whatever it is, though he has some nice lyrics.

WolfAtTheDoor · 07-30-2008, 05:01 AM

I think it would be perfectly described as 'rambling over a garage beat', however, before he went all famous and bollocks he was the spokesperson for my generation over here in the UK.

And before you say that all British should not rap ever, I think you should listen to Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip. They will quickly change your mind.

Piss Me Off · 07-30-2008, 05:02 AM

Scroopius Pip isn't really rapping though, he's a poet and his work was remixed onto Dan Le Sacs stuff.
I'd go early Dizzee Rascal.

or better than that, Roll Deep. Although I'm unsure whether it would appeal to you across the pond folk...

Don't I? Maybe. I don't think I've ever listened to a full song by The Streets. Does it really matter if it's rap or not? Either way it sounds god-awful. And no, I'm not wrong about English rappers. The BEST English rappers can't compare to anything done by Nas, Wu-Tang, or Talib Kweli.
