jeah...I kinda expected some of these names to pop up. Dizzee rascal is kinda like the 50cent of the uk scene not music wise but just be cause he has a shit load of fans, a shit load of haters and he's all over the tv and radio, same as The Streets Pro Green and Lady Sov the more kinda pop acts y'know.
Funk Flex has a grime show?? Thats mad.

Ty is the man! I like the Streets too. Dizze is a little to screwed for me. Got some dope tracks, but the beats mostly sound like he made it with the worst fruity loops plugins...

I listen to some UK hip hop, like Virus Syndicate,Dizzee Rascal,The Streets,Lady Sovereign, etc. I listen to a lot of stuff besides UK material too. I like Virus Syndicate though. Dizzee Rascal is kinda catchy, but I don't think he's as Grimey as Virus Syndicate. The Streets are really popular,and Lady Sovereign is huge. I looked at her Myspace,and it had like 7,000,000 plus people that hit the page. I Actually have the first record that the Virus Syndicate put out on Planet Mu Records which is virtually unheard of over here. I picked it up. They have got some sick beats. I showed some of my friends the album, and they went an bought it just because i told them about it.
